Answer: Selling opium.

Explanation:

Britain, as well as other European countries, began the opium trade to solve their persistent trade imbalance with China. There was great interest in Europe for Chinese goods, but limited demand in China for Europe’s manufactured products. This meant that  Europeans had to spend their gold or silver. The opium trade generated a constant demand, solving the trade imbalance.

What role did Lenin and Stalin play in the conversion of Russia to the communist Soviet Union?
andrew-mc [135]
Vladimir Lenin was one of the most important members of the Bolshevik Party. The majority of the Russian Revolution and the need to implement a communist system was the responsibility of the Bolshevik Party. Once the revolution was successful, Lenin was looked to as the leader of the new communist state.

Stalin continued this communist system after Lenin was done being leader. Stalin's central planning system ensured that the Soviet Union's economy was controlled by the government, as well as the media outlets. This was especially true during World War II.

Marysya12 [62]

Answer: Booker Taliaferro Washington won the support of business leaders and philanthropist such as Andrew Carnegie and John D Rockefeller.

Booker Taliaferro Washington an African- American, was born a slave in Virginia in the mid-19th century. However, it was not until after the Civil war in 1861 when his family moved to Malden, West Virginia, that he was able to realize his lifetime dream of going to school.

His intelligence, self-motivated attitude, leadership role and commitment were factors that helped pave way for his later establishing one of the most prestigious African American institutions of the 19th century - The Tuskegee in Alabama. This achievement considered great by all standards provided a platform for expressing his ideas of a non-confrontational and practical approach towards the established political system.

However, this position also attracted the criticism of some notable public personalities; it also ensured the respect and support from white business leaders and philanthropists such as Andrew Carnegie and John Davidson Rockefeller towards the advancement of African American society by contributing to the institute’s growth.
