History

Arlecino [84]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The European colonization of America began with the Vikings, who, as the first known Europeans, came into contact with America and established several colonies.

In 1492, Christopher Columbus reached America, after which European exploration and colonization gained momentum. The first conquests were made by Spain, which quickly conquered most of South and Central America and much of North America. Portugal took Brazil. Britain, France and the Netherlands conquered islands in the Caribbean, many of which had already been conquered by Spain or had been affected by disease. Early European colonies in North America included Spanish Florida, the British settlements in Virginia and New England, French settlements in Quebec and Louisiana, and Dutch settlements in New Netherlands.

What is the name of the theory that eisenhower coined in reference to the danger of the spread of communism in southeast asia?
Andru [333]

Answer:

Domino Theory

Explanation:

The Domino Theory referred to the idea that if a country became communist, neighboring countries would become communist too, in a more or less short time frame.

The name from the theory comes from the fact that when dominoes are arranged vertically, if one domino falls down, all the other fall down as well.

The Domino Theory was one of the basis for the Vietnam War. The American leadership believed that if Vietnam became communist, neighboring countries such as Laos, Thailand or Malasya would soon become communist too.

In the end, the Domino Theory did not prove fully correct. For example, while Laos did become communist soon after, niether Thailand nor Malasya became so.
