Operation Olympic was the first phase of Operation Dawnfall which was designed to occupy Japan, It was supposed to take place in November 1945 on the Kyushu island in southern Japan.  The plan included 14 army divisions in the initial landings alone, an armada of 400 destroyers, 24 battleships and a staggering 42 aircraft carriers. It was all based on an aphibious landing in three diferent beaches: at Miyazaki, Ariake and Kushikino. The weakness of this operation was the location, Kyushu island was the only one that was in conditions for an invasion of these characteristics. So the japanese succesfully predicted it, they were ready to use all of their force to defend the island with the Ketsugo plan. As a result, both sides had estimated that the casualties would be huge. Finally the invasion never took place as the atomic bombs were dropped in Nagasaki and Hiroshima making Japan surrender.

The Petition of Right (1628), sought recognition of 4 principles: no taxation without the consent of Parliament, no imprisonment without cause, no quartering of soldiers on subjects, and no martial law in peacetime.

And even though Charles I signed it, primarily because he had no choice if he wanted to keep receiving the parliament's subsidies for his policies, he later ignored the Petition and continued to govern without the advice and consent of Parliament, levying of tonnage and poundage, imprisoning people without a valid cause, etc.

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

For almost 30 centuries—from its unification around 3100 B.C. to its conquest by Alexander the Great in 332 B.C.—ancient Egypt was the preeminent civilization in the Mediterranean world.

The success of ancient Egyptian civilization came partly from its ability to adapt to the conditions of the Nile River valley for agriculture. The predictable flooding and controlled irrigation of the fertile valley produced surplus crops, which supported a more dense population, and social development and culture.
