Answer:

John Jacob Astor's motivation in establishing Fort Astoria was mainly strategical, as the fort represented American presence in the Oregon Territory, disputed between the United States and Great Britain.

Explanation:

Fort Astoria was the name of Pacific Fur Company's main fur trading post in northwestern America and the first American settlement in the Pacific coast. After a short period of possession by the United States, the British occupied it and operated it for 33 years. It was the first British post on the Pacific coast. Fort Astoria control was an important factor in the issue of sovereignty and territorial disputes between the British and the United States over the Oregon Country.

Answer:  The East German communist command economy limited economic prosperity

Explanation:  East Germany was part of the Soviet interest zone after the Second World War. Like all other countries with imposed communist regimes, the economy is strictly governed by the government, that is the command economy. In an economy where there is no free market, all economic parameters are determined by the government, and so is the case of East Germany. Although Berlin was completely destroyed at the end of WWII, West Berlin, which was part of the Western Allied Zone, advanced much faster than East Berlin.
