The Stamp Act was approved by the British in 1765 imposing taxes on all American colonists requiring them to pay taxes represented by a stamp on every piece of printed paper they used. Legal documents, licenses, newspapers, publications, etc. Colonists reacted with boycotts, riots and attacks to tax collectors. Although the Stamp Act occurred years before the Declaration of Independence, it was a critical issue that provoked the American Revolution.

An act of the British Parliament in 1765 that exacted revenue from the American colonies by imposing a stamp duty on newspapers and legal and commercial documents. Colonial opposition led to the act's repeal in 1766 and helped encourage the revolutionary movement against the Crown.

Those countries were known as the "non-aligned nations." The Non-Aligned Movement was initiated by the leaders of Yugoslavia, India, Indonesia, Egypt and Ghana. Many other nations joined in their movement to keep free of commitments to the two superpowers, the USA and the USSR. At the Bandung Conference in 1955, twenty-nine nations were represented. The Belgrade Conference in 1961 was the first official summit of the Non-Aligned Movement. Member nations attending that conference were Afghanistan, Algeria, Burma, Cambodia, Ceylon, the Congo, Cuba, Cyprus, Egypt, Ethiopia, Ghana, Guinea, India, Indonesia, Iraq, Lebanon, Mali, Morocco, Nepal, Saudi Arabia, Somalia, the Sudan, Tunisia, Yemen, and Yugoslavia. Bolivia, Brazil, and Ecuador attended as observer nations. (Note also that Cuba was an original participant in the movement, but then ended up aligning with the USSR.)

This statement is false.
It is not true that most important issues have been addressed - this is very wrong because not much attention is being paid to global warming, as well as other pressing issues. And even if it were, America is always trying to correct the wrongs in the world, so there will surely be more turning points in the future.

There are different kinds of power. The option that is not a way in which Mussolini maintained power is that He created a command economy.

<h3>Who is Mussolini?</h3>

Mussolini was known to be the man who led a coalition of fascist leaders to Rome and made the king to leave the government.

Mussolini was said to be a prime minister and By 1925 he had was said to have dismantled Italy's democratic government and became a dictator. He called himself Il Duce ("The Leader").

He threw out the parliamentary system and set up the Fascists. He also outlawed all political parties and stated all trade unions illegal. He made use of spies and secret police to intimidate anyone who is against his rule.

Therefore, option b is correct as he did not create a command economy to hold power.
