Answer:

It had supported Israel in the Yum Kippur War.

Explanation:

During the Yum Kippur War of Israel against Jordan, Syria and Egypt, the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries, also known as OPEC stated that nations that supported Israel would face a monthly oil embargo of 5% until the support to Israel was retired, the main countries that faced this embargo were Canada, United States, Japan, Britain, Portugal, Netherlands, South Africa and Rhodesia; but later the OPEC declared a total embargo to the United States and Netherlands because they were the ones that supported Israel the most. This embargo generated an oil crisis and caused a rise on oil prices.

Why did people in most European nations believe that the war that started in August 1914 would end quickly
ella [17]

Answer:the last seemingly identical war, between the same principal opponents (France and Germany), took only five months, not counting a siege of Paris that extended the actual peace settlement another 5 months. It appeared that with modern, increasingly lethal weaponry, plus railroads for efficient movement, victory in Europe would be quick and complete, though it was less clear who would be that victory.
