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.

How and why did relations between the U.S. and American Indian nations change between 1830 and 1900?
Taya2010 [7]

Explanation:

Indian Treaties and the Removal Act of 1830

The U.S. Government used treaties as one means to displace Indians from their tribal lands, a mechanism that was strengthened with the Removal Act of 1830. In cases where this failed, the government sometimes violated both treaties and Supreme Court rulings to facilitate the spread of European Americans westward across the continent.

Andrew Jackson

As the 19th century began, land-hungry Americans poured into the backcountry of the coastal South and began moving toward and into what would later become the states of Alabama and Mississippi. Since Indian tribes living there appeared to be the main obstacle to westward expansion, white settlers petitioned the federal government to remove them. Although Presidents Thomas Jefferson and James Monroe argued that the Indian tribes in the Southeast should exchange their land for lands west of the Mississippi River, they did not take steps to make this happen. Indeed, the first major transfer of land occurred only as the result of war.

How did the Freedmen's Bureau help the South after the Civil War?
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

Despite it's official title it's main purpose was to help the more than four million former slaves, most with any resources or education populating the South after the war. Congress created the Freedman's Bureau, with a life span of just one year, to distribute clothing, food, and fuel to destitute freedmen and to oversee "all subjects relating to their condition" in the South.
