The correct answer is B. Iraq invaded Kuwait as it was accused by Iraq of overproducing oil.

In 1988, Issam al-Chalabi, Iraq's Oil Minister, asked OPEC for a reduction in the daily production of barrels, with the intention that the consequent increase in the price of crude oil would stimulate the revenues of its shrinking public coffers. However, Kuwait's policy was just the opposite, favorable to a progressive increase in the daily production quota. With these motives, the government of Baghdad accused Kuwait that its oil policy was an aggression against Iraq.

At the same time, both countries were exploiting the huge oil field of Rumaila, one of the largest in the world, which is located in underground bags near the border between the two. Iraq accused Kuwait of using advanced techniques and stealing its oil, and demanded compensation. The Kuwaitis meanwhile claimed that it was just an excuse to justify an aggression.

Which term is defined as a renaissance movement characterized by independent thought and a renewed interest in Classical Greek a
Inessa [10]
 Humanism. It was called such way because humanity was put up front and center again, just like in Ancient Rome and Ancient Greece. The tendency of artists and philosophers and writers to talk about things related to church began to dwindle and everyone started focusing on both the physical and psychological appearance of people.

Which is the reason that AIM chose Wounded Knee, South Dakota for their protest occupation?
GalinKa [24]

Wounded Knee was a symbolic site because of the Wounded Knee Massacre, which took place there in 1890. The massacre occurred on the Lakota Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota. The massacre was the culmination of a more than 20 years of intense warfare between American and Native American forces. Efforts to stamp out Native American resistance, especially proponents of the Ghost Dance, a ceremonial dance originated by the Pauite prophet Wovoka which centralized  figured prominently in this event. Determined to root out the practice, US army troops pursued 250 Lakota to Pine Ridge. After a disagreement and scuffle, the troops opened fire and killed more than 250 defenseless children, women and old people. AIM considered this site sacred ground and occupied it to dramatize the need to address the plight of Native American people.

What was the cause and effect when hitler is chosen leader of the nazi party?
aev [14]
Part of the cause would be the great depression which might have helped bring him into power in the first place. Not only that but Hitler promised to restore Germany to its former glory. Remember after WWI Britain and the Allies put all the blame lf the war on Germany and forced it to pay reparations. When the Great Depression came after WWI it impacted many countries but was the hardest on Germany who was already in debt from the war. Hitlers one of the first things to do was stop paying reparations and use that money to invest back into Germany. His effect was making Germany more powerful like building up the military and getting it ready for WWII and invading Poland and breaking several agreements with USSR. He also affected 11 million people who were part of the Final Solution and his plan to racial cleanse the world killing Jews, gays, disabled ect. He brought unity to Germany but also beought great destruction to everyone else.
