Answer I would suggest:  POISON GASES  (chemical weapons)

The three gases that caused the most chemical weapons injuries and deaths during World War I were:

  • Chlorine gas - which strongly affects eyes, nose, throat and lungs. If hit with a high enough dose, a person could die of asphyxiation.
  • Phosgene - much more deadly than chlorine gas, and also colorless and odorless, so victims wouldn't know they were affected till it was too late.  After being exposed, victims lungs would start to fill with fluid and they would slowly suffocate over a couple days' time.
  • Mustard gas - which would cause blistering of the skin and extreme irritation to the eyes.  Mustard gas caused the highest amount of injury casualties from chemical weapons in World War I by the effects it caused, even if it did not directly kill many.

AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

200years

Explanation:

During the period of the Crusades, warfare between Christians and Muslims lasted nearly 200 years.

The Crusades were a series of military campaigns promoted by the Pope and carried out by a large part of Christian Latin Europe, mainly by the France of the Capetians and the Holy Roman Empire. The Crusades, with the initial specific objective of restoring Catholic control over the Holy Land, were fought over a period of almost two hundred years, between 1096 and 1291. Later, other campaigns in Spain and Eastern Europe, some of which they did not see its end until the fifteenth century, received the same denomination. The Crusades were held mainly against the Muslims, but also against the pagan Slavs, Jews, Greek and Russian Orthodox Christians, Mongols, Cathars, Hussites, Waldenses, Prussians (or Prussians), Lithuanians (in general against the Baltic peoples) and against enemies politicians of the Popes.

Why did the us become involved in hawaii during the early and mid 1800s
Vikki [24]

A few reasons. It was great for the United States economy because of the great production of sugar and other items there. Also because it was a strategic location for war. The terrain was perfect and it being an island gave them access farther away from the motherland. You can actually still see some of the bunkers and stuff on the volcanoes that they used in the World War!
