Answer:
paralyzed and time in office
Explanation:
1) FDR was paralyzed from the waist down and couldn't walk. He used a wheelchair. I would recommend looking this up to find some personal reasons as to why this is interesting. I however find it interesting because we still aren't quite sure if the cause of his paralysis was polio or Guillen-barre's syndrome.
2) FDR was the only president to serve for 4 terms. Again I recommend looking this up to find something you find interesting. I however just think it is interesting because during the time he was president (the Great Depression and beginning of WW2) the United States was pretty unstable, which shows the trust that the people had in their president at the time.
Answer: The most obvious example for this is from the battle of the bulge, where hitler tried to turn the tide agansit the american forces by reapeting the strategy he did against the french 5 years ago. Trying to punch a hole through the enemy lines and use tanks to mop up the infantry. This worked to some degree, with an american force being trapped in a town during the battle.
Answer:
They used guns to conquer a large area on three continents.
Explanation:
The Ottomans were one of the many empires that form the "Gunpowder Empires", flourishing during the 16th to 18th centuries. The term "gunpowder empire" refers to the kingdoms or empires that were formed by outside rulers who come together uniting their conquered lands.
One reason why the Ottoman Turks were considered a <em>"Gunpowder empire"</em> was because of their use of guns in conquering lands. These conquered lands include large areas covering three continents, Asia, Africa, and Europe.
Thus, the correct answer is the first option.
- 28. Napoleon's Impact on Europe after the Napoleonic Wars
The Napoleonic Wars were a series of wars that changed European powers and produced a French hegemony in Europe for a brief period. The major changes of the wars on Europe were the rise of the middle class, the rise of commerce and industry and the shift of power because European monarchs could not restore old absolutism, so they had to make alliances with the new powers that emerged with the Napoleonic Wars.
- 29. The accomplishment of the Concordat of 1801
The major accomplishment of the Concordat of 1801 was the restoration of the Catholic Church in France. Napoleon was given the right to nominate bishops, bishoprics and parishes and seminaries.
This agreement was important because during the French Revolution there were intense church reforms and the many confiscations of the church’s property and this mended the relationship.
- 30. Role of plebiscites in Napoleon’s rise to power.
After the French Revolution, France became politically unstable and other European powers used this on their favor and tried to invade French territories. Because of that Napoleon became a famous figure because he was in the French military and won against Austria and Italy.
He used plebiscites to make himself Emperor of France since he could not do it in a legal way. In a simple way, he used plebiscites as a coup d’etat to take power to himself as Emperor and centralize the government.
