What problems did Great Britain’s postwar economy have?

sergey [27]3 years ago
8 0

The economy of Great Britain was greatly damaged during World War II. During the war, the economy was modified in order to operate solely for the purposes of war. Therefore, postwar economy needed to be carefully rebuilt in order to satisfy the needs of peaceful Great Britain.

One of the first problems the country faced after the war was a harsh winter coupled with shortages of coal in 1946-1947. This meant that the economy did not significantly improve during this period. Another problem was the fact that there was a run on Sterling, as pounds were traded for dollars. This led to the devaluation of the British pound. In order to encourage trade, products were prioritized for exportation, which meant that rationing was extended in some way or another until 1954. Although the United States contributed with aid in order to encourage business, the money was mostly used to repay British debts, which made the modernization of the economy much slower than in other areas of Europe.

Which of the following individuals, opposed by Southerners, won the presidential election of 1860?
RUDIKE [14]
Abraham Lincoln won the presidential election of 1860 amidst opposition by Southerners.

Before Abraham Lincoln was inaugurated into office, Southern states seceded. This is because they fear that with Lincoln as president, he would abolish slavery. They formed the Confederate States of America with Jefferson Davis as president.

Abraham Lincoln was the 16th president of the United States. He preserved the Union during their Civil War and he brought about the emancipation of slaves.

He was assassinated on 14th April 1865 by John Wilkes Booth, a known well-known actor and Confederate sympathizer.

mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

Every symptom is not a fever symptom in infants.

Explanation:

Fever occurs when the internal "thermostat" of the body increases the temperature of the body above its normal range.

A child's normal temperature varies with his or her age, activity, and even time of day.

Infants usually have greater levels of temperatures than children of more than 1-2 years. They may have higher temperature during late afternoon and early evening. Temperatures might be low between midnight and early hours of the  morning. Checking temperature with palm on the forehead should not be the way to decide if the child has fever. Always use a thermometer to check body's temperature and conclude whether it is fever or not.
