<span>Measurable success of the Cold War.

The events of the Space Race was a way to demonstrate whether the US or the USSR was "winning" the Cold War.

The Cold War became a competition over capitalism and democracy versus communism. Since both sides knew the danger in going to war, the Space Race was a way to show who would win if war took place without the danger of atomic warfare. The USSR launch of Sputnik in 1957 put the US on notice and they responded with the Mercury and Apollo programs. The US landing on the moon in 1969 marked a major win for the US. </span>

The answer is: Advertisers reached more Americans than before, which led to the growth of consumer culture.

Explanation:

The "radio" became very powerful in the <em>1920s.</em> Every American home displayed the radio as a necessity for entertainment.<u> It immediately became a means for many advertisers to reach out to their consumers</u>.

<em>This gave them a chance to reach a broader variety of people. </em>Since this era was a prosperous time for people, the consumer goods increased. Many manufacturers used the radio as a means to advertise their goods and it was indeed an effective method.

Consumption culture grew, <u>whereby people purchased goods by credit. </u>For example, the radio would announce to people that if they cannot afford to purchase a specific good for its price, then they can do so by paying it in installment basis.

Which statement is true? A. The allied powers followed Wilson’s fourteen points. B. Germany was forced to pay the allied powers
____ [38]

Answer is B. Germany was forced to pay the Allied Powers and accept blame for the war.

In the War Guilt Clause (Article 231 of the Treaty of Versailles) it was stated that Germany had the responsibility of beginning WWI. This clause was added to achieve an agreement between France and Belgium so that the monetary sum the Germans would have to pay in compensation for the damage caused was reduced.

This clause was seen as a grant from the negotiators to the Germans. However, it caused a general resentment on the part of German people, since they did not accept the responsibility for the outbreak of the war.
