Latin America is the most dangerous region in the world, and the situation is getting worse, a lot worse. According to a recent World Bank study, over the past two decades nearly every region in the world has grown safer or at least stayed the same, except, that is, Latin America. Latin America holds eight percent of the world’s population but suffers 40 percent of the world’s homicides and 60 percent of the kidnappings. The murder rate in Latin America is 26 per 100,000.  In Europe it is nine.

Of the 50 most murderous cities in the world, 41 are located in Latin America.  Mexico’s Acapulco ranked third, with 113 murders per 100,000 in population, behind the Latin American cities of Caracas, Venezuela, placing second at 134, and San Pedro Sula, Honduras, with 187, winning the dubious honor as the most dangerous city in the world.

Why was the Spanish American war considered a turning point in American history
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

The brief war fought against the Spanish Navy and land forces in 1898 established the United States as a global, major navy and military power.

The war was fought in Cuba - the Caribbean - and in the Pacific.  If a century before American governments were not willing to join wars among European powers and pursued a cautious diplomacy, full industrialization, territorial expansion and a fantastic growth of economic might made the United States a player in world affairs to be reckoned with a century later. That´s why the Spanish-American war is a turning point in American history: the US would play a large role in world affairs from that moment on.

Niccolo machiavelli in the prince and thomas hobbes in leviathan both advocated that a ruler should
Maurinko [17]
The correct answer is <span>B. Employ absolute power to maintain order in the areas under their rule.
Machiaveli's idea about ruling was that it is better to be feared that to be loved. Thus a ruler, a king, emperor, or whoever was in charge of a country, had to have absolute power over everyone and instill fear in his or her subjects so that they cannot even think about rebelling. </span>

Explain how the bay of pigs invasion, the Cuban missile crisis, and the Berlin crisis each placed the United States in conflict
arlik [135]

Answer:

In early 1961 President John F. Kennedy concluded that Fidel Castro was a Soviet client working to subvert Latin America. After much debate in his administration Kennedy authorized a clandestine invasion of Cuba by a brigade of Cuban exiles. The brigade hit the beach at the Bay of Pigs on April 17, 1961, but the operation collapsed in spectacular failure within 2 days. Kennedy took public responsibility for the mistakes made, but remained determined to rid Cuba of Castro.
