Answer:
Explanation:
It was probably the most complex operation carried out in WWII. Operation Overlord (as it was called) had many features, some of which are listed below.
- It involved many nations (Britain, The United States, Canada to name 3 of the major participants on the allied side.
- It involved coordinating many types of armed forces. The infantry, the navy, the air force, paratroopers, spies and even civilians of one kind or another were involved.
- It had a "hoax" component. That is what it was actually called. The Germans had to be persuaded that one beach was equally likely as another to be attacked. Also the deployment of men had to be very carefully disguised. There is one story that came out after the war, that tents had to be set up (with no one using them) to persuade the Germans that men would be deployed from this position (when in fact that was never the intent).
- The date of the attack was a closely guarded military secret. Any time you go to that much care to guard a time and date, you know that the operation was quite complex.
- Quite a few generals were involved. That alone would lead to its complexity.
These are just a few comments. D Day is an extremely interesting study, well worth your time.

Answer:
The use of toxic chemicals as weapons dates back thousands of years, but the first large scale use of chemical weapons was during World War I.[1][2] They were primarily used to demoralize, injure, and kill entrenched defenders, against whom the indiscriminate and generally very slow-moving or static nature of gas clouds would be most effective. The types of weapons employed ranged from disabling chemicals, such as tear gas, to lethal agents like phosgene, chlorine, and mustard gas. This chemical warfare was a major component of the first global war and first total war of the 20th century. The killing capacity of gas was limited, with about ninety thousand fatalities from a total of 1.3 million casualties caused by gas attacks. Gas was unlike most other weapons of the period because it was possible to develop countermeasures, such as gas masks. In the later stages of the war, as the use of gas increased, its overall effectiveness diminished. The widespread use of these agents of chemical warfare, and wartime advances in the composition of high explosives, gave rise to an occasionally expressed view of World War I as "the chemist's war" and also the era where weapons of mass destruction were created.[3][4]
The use of poison gas by all major belligerents throughout World War I constituted war crimes as its use violated the 1899 Hague Declaration Concerning Asphyxiating Gases and the 1907 Hague Convention on Land Warfare, which prohibited the use of "poison or poisoned weapons" in warfare.[5][6] Widespread horror and public revulsion at the use of gas and its consequences led to far less use of chemical weapons by combatants during World War II.
Explanation:
The Neolithic Revolution and Industrial Revolution had many similarities and differences. One of which they shared, being that they both saw an increase of population. Both were in separate time periods, this resulted in different inventions essential to that historical era. The Industrial Revolution brought in machines, a better work industry, and much more advanced resources for society. The Neolithic Revolution yielded farming tools and such during a time where inventions were sparse. Overall, their differences and similarities led to one another.
