Napoleon lost power due to his failed major military campaigns. He tried to split his army to fight in two different fronts. He also retreated back to Paris after a crushing defeat.
Answer:
Why was Persia ultimately unsuccessful in conquering Greece? Persia had fewer soldiers than Greece to fight its battles. Athens and Sparta were unbeatable when the two were united. Persia's distance from Greece worked to its disadvantage.
Explanation:
Answer:
B. A sound generalization considers more factors than an
oversimplification
Explanation:
Generalization is the expansion of the boundaries of a pattern found in a small piece of reality. Simplification is the omission of details that are not essential to achieve the goal.
When generalizing, concepts of a higher order are introduced while the ‘power’ of description does not drop.
In simplification, exactly what happens is the loss of detail, and nothing more.
This question refers to the War in Vietnam. By 1965, the United States was reluctant about the idea of fully committing to the war in Vietnam. However, the involvement of the United States in the war continued to grow, as that same year, the number of American combatants grew from 50,000 to 100,000. This process of increased involvement was known as the "Americanization" of the war.
Those who disliked the idea of increased involvement generally did so because they believed that the payoff would be too small compared to the risk and cost of getting involved. However, Commanding General Westmoreland and Secretary of Defense McNamara disagreed.
They believed that the most important mission of the United States was to halt the spread of communism. Therefore, they thought that, under no circumstances should the Viet Cong be allowed to win. To this purpose, McNamara published his "Program of Expanded Military and Political Moves with Respect to Vietnam." This suggested that a victory of the Viet Cong would be impossible as long as the United States became fully involved in the war.
