Why was the Reagan administration's support for the Nicaraguan Contras

History
1 answer:
mamaluj [8]3 years ago
6 0

Answer

Actually, the true reason that the US was involved in the war in Nicaragua is because the democratically elected Nicaraguan President, Ortega, was not giving in to US economic demands. Therefore, the Fascist US sided with the Right Wing extremists, The Contras.

One more thing, according to Kagan, the ostensible goal of U.S. support for the contras, according to some in the Administration, was not to overthrow the Sandinistas but to compel them to stop sending arms to the Salvadoran rebels.

Also, the United States had limited military presence in Nicaragua, having only one patrolling U.S. Navy ship off the coast of Bluefields, in order to protect the lives and interests of American citizens who lived there. The Conservative Party sought to overthrow Zelaya which led to Estrada's rebellion in December 1909.

How did Mussolini plan to “restore the power and glory of the Roman Empire
Gennadij [26K]

Mussolini planned tor restore the glory of the Roman Empire by taking over the neighboring lands.

Explanation:

Mussolini used a rather strong argument for his own fascist and imperialistic tendencies by evoking Rome and its glorious empire of the past.

The insistence was that if the law of Mussolini was followed the people could realistically go back to the days of the roman empire, something that was quite improbable in the modern world.

He was willing to do this by expanding military might and by subjugating the other nations around Italy.

What issues led to the French Revolution
xenn [34]

Answer:

1. International - 2. Political conflict - 3. The Enlightenment - 4. Social antagonisms -  5. Ineffective ruler - 6. Economic hardship

Explanation:

International: struggle for hegemony and Empire outstrips the fiscal resources of the state

  1. Political conflict: conflict between the Monarchy and the nobility over the “reform” of the tax system led to paralysis and bankruptcy
  2. The Enlightenment: impulse for reform intensifies political conflicts; reinforces traditional aristocratic constitutionalism, one variant of which was laid out in Montequieu’s Spirit of the Laws; introduces new notions of good government, the most radical being popular sovereignty, as in Rousseau’s Social Contract [1762]; the attack on the regime and privileged class by the Literary Underground of “Grub Street;” the broadening influence of public opinion.
  3. Social antagonisms between two rising groups: the aristocracy and the bourgeoisie
  4. Ineffective ruler: Louis XVI
  5. Economic hardship, especially the agrarian crisis of 1788-89 generates popular discontent and disorders caused by food shortages.
