This era would be known as the Cold War period. This period of time is when the US and Soviet Union faced off in a battle of political power and global influence. The US (in support of capitalism) and the Soviet Union (in favor of communism) constantly tried to limit the power of each other. In order to show their political power, each country made allies.
NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization) was a political and military alliance between countries like the US, Great Britain, France, Denmark, Italy, and Canada which focused on stopping the spread of communism. These countries were worried that nations influenced by the Soviet Union would turn into one similar to the Soviet regime. These countries did not like this communist regime, as the rights and individual liberties of the citizens were severely limited.
The correct answer is A. The colonists wanted to be free from Great Britain.
Explanation
Before being an independent country the United States was a British colony, for this reason, the British rulers had dominion over all the American territory, its natural resources, and its control. This caused abuses of power to arise towards Native Americans and settlers. This caused discontent in the population which promoted the idea of independence because they considered that they could govern the country by their means. This caused a war in which they defeated the British and won their independence. After its independence, it became necessary to establish new laws on all matters, to avoid the accumulation of power in one person or group, justice for all people, a new democratic government system, among others. Therefore, it was necessary to establish a new constitution. So the correct answer is A. The colonists wanted to be free from Great Britain.
