Answer: a. The War Production Board helped factories quickly shift from only making consumer goods to making war materials.
Explanation:
A key part of the U.S. being able to join the Second World War and contribute so effectively in the time that it did, was the War Production Board's efficiency in shifting American consumer production to war materials for use by the U.S. military and the Allies.
Thanks to the Board, companies shifted their focus from consumer goods even though there was initially some massive pushback. Following a national campaign, opposition subsided and the U.S. was able to pump out so much war material that the war would not have been won without.

The answer is Republic of Georgia
Russia is often described as an Energy Superpower and currently provides huge amounts of Oil and Gas to most of Europe.
Large parts of Europe are already dependent on Russian gas which is critical to survival in the harsh winters of Germany or Ukraine.
Georgia, which is an ex-Soviet country and borders Russia is also highly dependent on importing its energy needs.
After the Russia-Georgian War of South Ossetia, Georgia faced a miserable defeat and sought help from the United States both moral and economical.
One of the major policy changes suggested to Georgia was to decrease its energy dependence on Russia.
Key basic industries, such as railroads, textiles, and steel had barely made a profit. Railroads lost business to new forms of transportation (trucks, buses, and private automobiles, for instance). Coal mining was especially hard-hit, in part due to stiff competition from new forms of energy, including hydroelectric power, fuel oil, and natural gas.
