C. Self-determination

The principle of self-determination was one of the key features of Woodrow Wilson's 14 Points, which he outlined as ways to bring The Great War (World War I) to an end and work toward a peaceful world. The intention to give people's the right to determine and control their own governments was embedded in sevedral of Wilson's points, such as:

Point #9. Readjustment of the borders of Italy "along clearly recognizable lines of nationality."

Point #10. Austria-Hungary retain a place among the nations, but the peoples of Austria-Hungary should be granted the accorded for independence if they so choose.

Point #12. Turkey shall remain as its own country, but other nationalities under the Ottoman Empire "should be assured an undoubted security of life" and "opportunity of autonomous development."

The "opportunity of autonomous development" (self-determination) wasn't exactly implemented everywhere as Wilson hoped. The "Mandate system" mentioned in the question options was a way in which European powers were entrusted to govern regions that were not deemed ready yet to govern themselves -- such as in former imperial holdings of Germany and the Ottoman Empire.

yarga [219]

Answer:

Smith favored buying farm surpluses, while Hoover believed in funding organizations that would help farmers with the surpluses

Explanation:

A major difference in the political platforms of Herbert Hoover and Alfred Smith is that Smith favored buying farm surpluses, while Hoover believed in funding organizations that would assist farmers with the surpluses.

Herbert Clark Hoover who was born on August 10, 1874 and died on October 20, 1964 was an American engineer, businessman, and politician who was elected as the 31st president of the United States in 1929 to 1933. Hoover was a member of the Republican Party, and he held office during the beginning of the Great Depression. Prior to serving as president, Hoover led the Commission for Relief in Belgium and was the director of the United States Food Administration, and served as the 3rd U.S. Secretary of Commerce.

When the United States entered the war, President Woodrow Wilson appointed Hoover to lead the Food Administration, and Hoover was widely known as the country's "food czar". After the war, Hoover led the American Relief Administration, which made available food to the inhabitants of Central Europe and Eastern Europe.

Alfred Emanuel Smith who was born in December 30, 1873 and died on October 4, 1944 was an American politician and the Governor of New York who served four terms during his time and was also the Democratic Party's candidate for president in 1928, and also favored buying farm surpluses during his time.

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

A. European powers divided China into spheres of influence, while the United States promoted an Open Door Policy.

Explanation:

Unlike Europeans, they tried to make China a sphere of influence of their countries by turning China into a subsidiary or satellite state to their sociopolitical and economic activities in the Asian continent. The United States on the other hand created an Open Door Policy that gives equal privilege to China, its territories, and the countries that are trading with China.

Hence, the right answer is option A.
