C) Indigenous :) Hope this helps!!!
First question: he started making alliances after coming to power and a war did happen, so we have to choose amog the two other options:
give powerful and persuasive speeches
create industry and employment where none existed
I find that they're both true and that an even better answer would be that he gave people huge promises of making Italy great again.
If I can choose only one option, then "speeches" is better, since the other one required him to be in power already to do
second question: while the last option did happen, as minorities were persecuted, the major mechanism of keeping the population in control was controlling resistance, so the correct answer is the first one.
Before, trains, cars, airplanes and trucks existed, rivers were used for travel. They carried people and goods. However, this way of transportation was very slow. All that changed with the arrival of the steamboat in the late 1700s and early 1800s. The steamboat could travel at the amazing speed of 5 miles per hour. It soon changed all over river travel and trade and dominated the waterways.
