<em>A. A measure that allowed the U.S. government to intervene in Cuban affairs.</em>
Explanation:
The Platt Amendment was made in 1901 and had it so all treaties that were brought to Cuba had to be approved by the United States.
The United States could now intervene in Cuban affairs whenever they wanted, they wanted to protect certain interests that were on Cuba and protect the Cuban independence. The United States could also now lease or even buy certain parts of Cuban land for naval bases or even coaling stations to power certain things.
Many Cubans actually approved of the Platt Amendment, as many felt more protected and safer.

When Napoleon needed money, he sold Jefferson the Louisiana
Purchase, which he had acquired when he conquered Spain. To find out what he'd
just purchased, Jefferson sent Merriweather Lewis and William Clark to explore
it. It covered an area from Louisiana northward to Missouri and across the
biggest part of the Great Plains and Northwest. The team which went with them
included such diverse people as Sacajawea, a Shoshone Indian and her baby Lewis's
slave, French trappers, woodsmen, and other interpreters. Lewis concentrated on
cataloging what they found, such as the various Native American tribes,
animals, and plants, and mapping the region, while Clark was the woodsman who
led the expedition. They went through many hardships, though miraculously only
one member of the expedition died over the several years they were gone. At one
point they were starving in the Rocky Mountains--there was not enough fat on
the deer they shot to keep them alive. They found an Indian tribe to barter
with, but the chief refused to deal with them until Sacajawea walked in--she
was his sister, who had been kidnapped from the tribe at the age of 5! Needless
to say, they got their food. They made it to the Pacific Ocean, where they then
split into two groups, one of which took a more southerly route back.

Answer:</h3>
D. Because the Sudanese government focused on rebels in general,
not a specific ethnic group.
<h3>
Explanation:</h3>
Since the early 2000s, violence against the Sudanese government has been prevalent in the Darfur region. Although, it was not defined as genocide by the UN.
Genocide
First, we need to understand what genocide is.
- Genocide is defined as the deliberate killing of a specific ethnicity, nationality, or religious group.
For the UN to declare something a genocide, a specific group, usually a minority, must be targeted for their unique traits, like ethnicity.
There are 5 forms of genocide:
- Killing members of a group
- Causing grave mental or physical harm
- Forcing purposely terrible living conditions
- Preventing new births
- Forcing children out of the group
One of these must occur to a specific group of people for the UN to declare genocide.
Atrocities in Darfur
While the Sudanese government did deliberately kill people within Darfur, the government attempted to attack rebels. So, the government did not specifically target the ethnicity. However, the majority of the rebels were from Darfur, so some people saw it as a genocide.
