Answer:

The correct answer is B. France helped the Americans in the Revolutionary War because it was a way to gain an advantage over Great Britain.

Explanation:

Taking advantage of the American Revolutionary War, France wanted to retaliate against the British after the defeats suffered in the Seven Years' War. Therefore, the French hurried to provide support to American rebels with weapons and funding since the first months of the conflict, and after the important victory obtained by the Americans in the battle of Saratoga on October 7, 1777, France decided to take more active action and on February 6, 1778 signed a treaty of alliance with the Thirteen colonies to then declare war on Britain a month later.

At the end of the war France obtained some small territorial gains and other economic concessions, advantages which however did not compensate for the heavy financial expenses incurred for the war.

Slav-nsk [51]

<span>C. Cuba's communist leaders demanded Soviet military support after U.S.-trained soldiers had invaded Cuba.

The invasion of US-trained soldiers occurred in 1961 -- The Bay of Pigs Invasion. Cuban exiles trained by the USA's Central Intelligence Agency aimed to overthrow the communist government of Fidel Castro in Cuba, but failed.

Cuba requested that the USSR, as its communist sponsor, place missiles in Cuba to deter further US-sponsored action against the Castro regime. That request, coupled with the fact of American missiles that were located in Europe, within striking distance of the USSR, prompted Nikita Khrushchev of the USSR to send the missiles to Cuba.

The creation of the Articles of Confederation is an example of the continuing debate over the issue of the "Balance of Power". W

elixir [45]

The term, "Balance of Power" is an issue that has led to a continuing debate since the creation of the Articles of Confederation between Federal (or Central power) versus State powers.

<h3>What is the concept of "Balance of Power" in the United States?</h3><h3 />

As concerns the United States of America, the term, "Balance of Power' refers to the continued debate over just how much the federal government should hold in relation to the state government and what powers the state government should hold as a semi-independent system.

This led to the creation of the Articles of Confederation which gave rise to a weak federal government and a strong state government but the Constitution changed that and gave the Federal government more power when it deemed this to be the best way.
