Since you didn't list choices, I can just provide you a summary of what led to the United States' involvement in World War I.

  • Public outrage in the US against the Germans swept the nation following the sinking of the British ocean liner, Lusitania.  When a German U-boat (submarine) sank the Lusitania in May, 1915, over 1,000 persons were killed, including more than 100 Americans. The passenger liner was targeted by the Germans because they suspected weapons were being shipped to Britain in the cargo hold of the ship.  Germany managed to stave off American entry into the war at the time by pledging to stop submarine attacks.  
  • In January, 1917, Germany resumed its policy of unrestricted submarine warfare, again attacking non-military vessels which they suspected of carrying military supplies.  The resumption of Germany's U-boat warfare again inflamed tensions with the United States.
  • In February, 1917, the "Zimmerman Telegram" was intercepted by British intelligence and shared with the US.  Germany's foreign minister, Arthur Zimmerman, had telegraphed an offer to Mexico's ambassador seeking Mexico's support in war vs. the United States in exchange for getting land back from the US.
  • On April 2, 1917, President Wilson made a powerful speech to Congress in which he argued that the nation needed to enter the war "to make the world safe for democracy."  Wilson's speech was powerfully convincing, and four days later, Congress declared war.

Elizabeth I (1533–1603)
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

1) Making Inferences In what ways do you think the events during Elizabeth’s youth molded her character?

- Although these events somewhat traumatized the Princess, they also molded her into a strong, independent personality.

Explanation:

2) Interpreting Significance Queen Elizabeth’s refusal to marry was a controversial political decision at the time. Why? Why might Elizabeth have chosen to remain single?

- Because there could not be a queen in a monarchy before a country without a king, it was necessary if or if (male chauvinism of the time). Moreover, Elizabeth decided not to marry anyone, because her greatest wish was to be committed to her country, to be loved and respected by its inhabitants/citizens; and to reign on the throne of England until the day she died.

kozerog [31]

Answer:

Protect rights of African-Americans.

Explanation:

The 13th, 14th and 15th amendments to the Constitution, jointly known as the Reconstruction Amendments, were additions to the Constitution between 1865 and 1870, which sought to give rights to those individuals who did not already have them before the Civil War, focusing specially on African Americans. So, these amendments prohibited slavery, defined the acquisition of U.S. citizenship, and gave all men, regardless of color or background, the right to vote in elections.
