He wanted Russia's wheat and oil fields.

By 1944, Germany war machine was in tremendous need of oil, and could only supply around a quarter of its own needs, the war on the Soviet Union intended to reach the rich Oil fields in the Caucasus, which would also allow them to control the famous "mitterland".

The seizing of the Mitterland (or the land of the middle in reference to the Eurasian continent) would be a key geostrategic point. Since the war effort had caused a huge demand in energetics, Azerbaijan Baku's oilfields were the target to the Germans and strategic as well due to the USSR's heavy reliance on Caucasus oil.

Hitler was eager to capture Baku, securing oil provisions for the rest of the late stages of the conflict and also solving the absolute necessity of occupying the huge oil region of the Caucasus. As Hitler reached oil fields in the region, he found the Russians had trashed them intentionally and set fire to them, rendering them useless. Then the Red Army stroke back at Stalingrad where they resisted and under a "no turning back policy", defending the motherland at all costs and this fiercly began to expel the Nazis back and were never able to recover from that major strike.

Which three factors were part of European Imperialism?
Gekata [30.6K]
QUICK ANSWER

Three factors that spurred American imperialism were the need to expand even after the frontier had vanished, with industrialization warranting further claim to more resources, the growing importance of foreign trade to the American economy and the desire to compete with European empires for power. Because of this mixture of cultural, economic and political factors, the U.S. was influenced to practice imperialism, particularly during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

Which of these documents inspired the unlieable rights outlined in the declaration of independence
Artist 52 [7]

You didn't list options, but I suspect the answer you're looking for is:

<h2><em>Second Treatise on Civil Government</em>, by John Locke  (1690)</h2>

A strong overall theme of the Declaration of Independence is that people are born with natural rights.  The Declaration uses the term "unalienable rights" as an equivalent for natural rights.  Because  the rights belong to us by nature, we cannot be separated or alienated from those rights.

Thomas Jefferson (writer of the Declaration of Independence) and other American founding fathers got their ideas about natural rights from philosophers of the Enlightenment, such as John Locke (1632-1704).  Locke strongly argued that all human beings have certain natural rights which are to be protected and preserved.    Locke's ideal was one that promoted individual freedom and equal rights and opportunity for all.  Each individual's well-being (life, health, liberty, possessions) should be served by the way government and society are arranged.   The American founding fathers accepted the views of Locke and other Enlightenment thinkers and acted on them.

John Locke, in his<em> Second Treatise on Civil Government</em> (1690), expressed these ideas as follows.  Notice similarities to what is said in the Declaration of Independence (1776) ...

  • <em>The state of nature has a law of nature to govern it, which obliges every one: and reason, which is that law, teaches all mankind, who will but consult it, that being all equal and independent, no one ought to harm another in his life, health, liberty, or possessions… (and) when his own preservation comes not in competition, ought he, as much as he can, to preserve the rest of mankind, and may not, unless it be to do justice on an offender, take away, or impair the life, or what tends to the preservation of the life, the liberty, health, limb, or goods of another.</em>
