Massacres of Armenians were carried out in the late 1800s and early 1900s by the Ottoman government.
<h3>Armenian Genocide</h3>
- During World War I, the Ottoman Empire deliberately destroyed the Armenian people and their culture, which is known as the Armenian genocide.
- It was carried out chiefly through the forcible conversion of Armenian women and children to Islam, which was spearheaded by the ruling Committee of Union and Progress, and the massacre of about a million Armenians on death marches to the Syrian Desert.
- A string of military defeats and territory losses for the Ottoman Empire, especially the Balkan Wars of 1912–1913, instilled in CUP leaders a worry that the Armenians, whose country in the eastern provinces was seen as the heartland of the Turkish people, would seek independence.

Answer: Alfred T. Mahan
Explanation:
Alfred Thayer Mahan was an American Naval Officer and Historian who was widely known to be a brilliant strategist. He wrote two books about the influence of the Navy on the strength and development of a nation, both of which were well read and made him famous.
He believed that for a nation to succeed it needed a strong navy that could be used commercially in peace time or win a war in wartime. He even came up with plans for conflict with the foremost Naval power of the time, Britain.
A Senator and indeed a lot of Americans that would have read the writings of Mr. Mahan would have been convinced that the US needed to build more battleships than every other nation.
