Answer:
The conquest of new lands directly contributed to the economic growth of nations since through territorial expansion new territories were acquired that included within themselves enormous amounts of natural resources.
Thus, for example, the territorial expansion of Spain during the conquest of America allowed the Spanish Empire access to precious metals and different grains that contributed to the economic development of the nation and the well-being of its citizens.
Another example is that of the United States, which after the annexation of California was able to exploit the enormous gold reserves that were in the territory of the State.

The plan to attack France first was a plan by the German Chief of General Staff, Alfred Von Schlieffen which he came up with way back in 1905.
He decided that France was the enemy to be defeated first, with Russia held off until the French were annihilated. He worked out a detailed time timetable that took into account possible French responses to German actions. He believed that Germany would defeat France within six weeks, then after that he would turn his full force on Russia.
Schlieffen plan was heavily modified by his successor Moltke, thus during the outbreak of WWI in 1914, it was not implemented as Schlieffen had envisioned.
Answer: It was an attempt to free only the slaves in the Confederacy, not the Border States or areas under Union control.
Explanation:
The Emancipation Proclamation of 1863 by President Lincoln freed the slaves in the Confederate states. This made the war about slavery and therefore ensured that European countries did not support the Confederacy and that the Union ranks increased as African Americans signed up for the war.
Sadly the proclamation did not free the enslaved people who were in the Border states or in areas under Union control because the President did not want these areas to join the Confederacy.
