History

1. Although it was a US/Allied government decision and not MacArthur's, the Emperor was preserved as head of state, was not prosecuted for war crimes, and although he eventually had to renounce his divinity (ie, the idea that he actually WAS god) the religious position of the emperor was preserved. 

<span>2. He severely limited and controlled how war crimes investigations took place and how the trials were conducted. They were carried out before military tribunals, unlike the Nuremburg trials in Germany which were carried out by the most prominent legal people from the Allied states, in a specially set-up process. In this way, MacArthur and the US could scapegoat a limited number of Japanese for all the war crimes, while the Emperor was excused, and those who carried out barbarous germ warfare and chemical warfare experiments on (mostly Chinese) prisoners were also allowed free, in exchange for giving all their information to the US. The ongoing hunt for war criminals was given up very early, whereas Nazis and supposed Nazis are still being hunted down to this day. </span>

<span>MacArthur's main contribution was to encourage US troops to behave themselves, forging a new friendship between Japan and the West. But overall not much of this was MacArthur's work and he mostly swanned around self-importantly, which is what he always did best. He was a truly abysmal military commander.</span>

What was the military, economic and territorial implications of the treaty of Versailles on Germany?
Rufina [12.5K]

Military: Germany was limited to a very small military (no more than 100,000 men of all ranks), and was not allowed to have any heavy artillery. This was to prevent Germany from gaining a military strong enough to launch another attack, but since a strong military was a very important part of remaining a world power, this meant Germany could never hope to achieve this whilst honoring the treaty.

Economic: Germany was forced to pay reparations (as they were being blamed for the war) to many countries, mainly Belgium and France. The amount was far to much for Germany to ever pay off, and was a key factor in Germany's economic crisis shortly thereafter.

Territorial: Germany was forced to give up all of it's colonies, which were given to various League of Nations powers. This was a major loss of land and population for the country, not to mention a loss of money from said colonies, again leading back to economics.

Can u guys give me captions about Boston tea party?

What do you mean by captions? Like quotes?


edit:

"The mistaken policy of the Stamp Act first disturbed this happy situation; but the flame thereby raised was soon extinguished by its repeal, and the old harmony restored, with all its concomitant advantage to our commerce. The subsequent act of another administration, which, not content with an established exclusion of foreign manufactures, began to make our own merchandise dearer to the consumers there, by heavy duties, revived it again; and combinations were entered into throughout the continent to stop trading with Britain till those duties should be repealed. All were accordingly repealed but one, the duty on tea. This was reserved (professedly so) as a standing claim and exercise of the right assumed by Parliament of laying such duties." ~ Benjamin Franklin

 "Patriotism is as much a virtue as justice, and is as necessary for the support of societies as natural affection is for the support of families." ~ Benjamin Rush - Patriot and Physician


"In about three hours from the time we went on board, we had thus broken and thrown overboard every tea chest to be found on the ship, while those in the other ships were disposing of the tea in the same way, at the same time. We were surrounded by the British armed ships, but no attempt was made to resist us...And it was observed at that time that the stillest night ensued that Boston had enjoyed for many months." ~ George Hewes Boston Tea Party - Eye Witness Account


"We were merry, in an undertone, at the idea of making so large a cup of tea for the fishes." ~ Joshua Wyeth
