Which effect did Marco Polo’s The Travels of Marco Polo have on East Asia and Southeast Asia?
ElenaW [278]

Venetian explorer, Marco Polo, told his cellmate during his imprisonment after the Venetian-Genoese War about his travels to the Far East. These accounts became a book , later entitled "The Travels of Marco Polo" which was influential in sparking people's curiosity of the East.

The first impact  was that Marco Polo was able to bring elements of Western culture to the East and Eastern culture back to the West. Because of his exploration Indonesia, Mongolia, Sri Lanka, and India, China began to experience Western culture.  

Next, Marco Polo's interactions with Mongolian emperor Kublai Khan led to commercial exchange with Western merchants who were now arriving in China. This increased Chinese's growth as a civilization.

The Silk Road, an easier route to travel around the Gobi Desert,  traced by the Polos had a huge effect  in the future of European and Chinese interaction. It would prove to be a more effective route than to sail the oceans to China.

Why did Harry S Truman choose not to tell Joseph Stalin about the atomic bombs
Inessa [10]

Answer:

On July 25, 1945, President Harry S. Truman hints to Soviet Premier Joseph Stalin that the United States has successfully developed a new weapon. In his diary, Truman privately referred to the new weapon, the atomic bomb, as the most terrible bomb in the history of the world.

The United States had successfully tested the world’s first atomic weapon near Alamogordo, New Mexico, on July 16, 1945. Truman received the news while in Potsdam, Germany, conferring with British Prime Minister Winston Churchill and Soviet leader Joseph Stalin on post-World War II policy in Europe. On July 17, Truman told Churchill of the test’s success and the two agreed to put off telling Stalin about what Truman called the dynamite news until later—Truman first wanted to get Stalin to agree to enter the Pacific war on the Allies’ side with no strings on it.

On July 25, after receiving Stalin’s pledge to join the U.S. in the war against Japan in the Pacific, Truman casually informed the Soviet leader that the United States had a new weapon of unusual destructive force. Although Stalin did not appear to be impressed by the news, Truman hoped the information would increase the pressure on Stalin to concede to the Allies’ demands regarding the post-war division of Europe.

In his diary entry for July 25, Truman wrote that the new weapon would be used against military targets in Japan before August 10. He specifically mentioned avoiding women and children and mused it is certainly a good thing for the world that Hitler’s crowd or Stalin’s did not discover this atomic bomb.

It turned out that Truman would not need the Soviets’ help in the Pacific after all. On August 6, 1945, one week before the Soviets were due to join combat operations, Truman ordered the first atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima, Japan. Two days later, he authorized a second atomic bomb dropped on Nagasaki. Although the total number of victims has been disputed, Japanese and U.S. government statisticians estimate that at least 140,000 men, women and children died immediately in the two blasts and an additional 74,000 died from the effects of bomb-related radiation by 1950.

spin [16.1K]

Incomplete/unclear question. The correct question read;

<u>88% </u>of all Rutgers/Newark students will get drunk this weekend. P2: Booze-Head is a Rutgers/Newark student. Can it be inductively concluded that Booze-Head will not get drunk this weekend?

Answer:

<u>No</u>

Explanation:

<em>Remember,</em> inductive reasoning is often based on<u> broad generalizations from specific observations.</u>

So since from this scenario, a broad generalization was made that <u>88% </u>of Rutgers/Newark students will get drunk this weekend, it seems <u>unlikely </u>and illogical that Booze will not be among those getting drunk on the weekend.
