The Battle of Midway was a "midway" point in the battle against Japan in the Pacific. It allowed the United States, fighting for the Allies, to go from a defensive position to being on offense.

The battle was one fought mainly with aircraft, and the US was able to knock four of Japan's aircraft carriers out of commission while only losing one of their own aircraft carriers. Japan's advance across the Pacific halted at Midway, and US forces began its own offensive to retake islands and ultimately pursue the war all the way to Japan itself.

The correct answer is B. Primary herpetic gingivostomatitis

Why were the mongols more successful at emerging from central asia where larger groups were not?

diamong [38]

The Mongols were more successful at emerging from central Asia where larger groups were not due to several factors:
1- The Mongols had the advantage of having Genghis Khan with them
2- Their number was much less than that of other pastoral groups
3- They did not depend on civilization for transportation. Instead, they rode horses in order to border the Siberian forest. They depended on hunting, herding and arching for protection and for getting food.
