World War I is considered the great war. Abraham Lincoln was the president of America at that time. He beleived that it would be of great trouble to the whole world if Germany won the war. This led him to join the war in favor of the allied forces.Another important reason behind the Americans joing the great war was that the German navy was constantly sinking a number of American merchant ships. the submarines of the germans seemed unstoppable.

Bumek [7]

Answer:

D. “That is incorrect. The dynasty strengthened and unified China.”

Explanation:

The Qin dynasty (221 a.c. - 206 a.c.) unified China under the hand of Zheng, the young king of the Qin state, and his prime-minister Li Si. Zheng conquered the feudal states of Zhao, Wei, Chu, Yan, and Qi and adopted the name Qin Shi Huangdi meaning "First Emperor". Shi Huangdi was violent, unpopular and considered an autocratic tyrant, his government was bureaucratic and legalist, opposed to Confucio´s predicaments. However, important buildings such as the first part of the Great Wall of China and the terracotta warriors (found in Shi Huangdi´s tomb) belong to this period.

In a three- to five-paragraph essay, analyze whether U.S. foreign policy during the Cold War was motivated by a desire to promot

Nataly [62]

This question asks for an essay, which is a task that only you can complete. However, we can provide some information that can help you start your work.

The Cold War was a period in history in which the Soviet Union and the United States (along with their respective allies) engaged in an ideological and geopolitical struggle for global influence. While the United States argued that its main objective was to spread democracy all over the world, I believe that the politics of this time were mainly dominated by a desire to be the most influential country in the world.

This is supported by the fact that many of the decisions that the United States made during this time period seem motivated more by a desire to compete with the Soviet Union than to benefit other countries. For example, the Space Race had no impact on democracy abroad. Nevertheless, it was an essential component of the Cold War and of gaining preeminence over the Soviet Union. Similarly, rivalry in sports and nuclear arsenal development are more closely related to a struggle for geopolitical influence than a desire to spread democracy.

Freedom of the press and what technology led to the downfall of president nixon after the watergate scandal

solmaris [256]

A taping system (aka recording device) installed in the office of the President helped lead to the downfall of President Nixon. While Nixon was president, a recording device was installed in his office to record phone and in-person conversations. When being accused of having ties to the Watergate break-in, the Supreme Court ruled that Nixon must release his taped conversations. These conversations had incriminating evidence and showed Nixon's true intent as president. Ultimately, the evidence discovered by these recorded conversations lead to Nixon's resignation.
