Answer:

Right choice is:

d. American victory in the Spanish-American War.

Explanation:

After defeating Spain in the brief Spanish-American War of 1898, the United States took territories Guam and the Philippines. It also got control of Puerto Rico and Cuba. It is a landmark event that is seen as the advent of  an imperialist foreign policy and a major involvement of the US in world affairs. The deployment of the US Navy in the Caribbean and the Pacific also increased US influence. In the aftermath, the US annexed the Philippines and Guam, and imposed the Platt Amendment on Cuba which included the right to build a naval base. It still exists in Guantanamo Bay. Puerto Rico is today a quasi-state under the status of free associated state.

Why was the Western Russia migration (1800s-1980s) so important? Were there any lasting consequences?
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

  • The collapse of the communist regimes in Eastern Europe brought widespread fear of a <u>'tidal wave'</u> of immigrants from the East into Western Europe. Quite apart from the social and political importance, East-West migration also poses a challenge to established theories of migration, as in most cases the migrant flow cannot be categorised as either refugee movement or a labour migration.
  • Indeed much of the trans-border movement is not officially recognised, as many migrants are temporary, commuting, <u>'tourists' </u>or illegal, and remain invisible to the authorities. This book focuses on Russian migration into Western Europe following the breakup of the Soviet Union. Helen Kopnina explores the concept of 'community' through an examination of the lives of Russian migrants in two major European cities, London and Amsterdam.
  • In both cases Kopnina finds an <u>'invisible community',</u> inadequately defined in existing literature. Arguing that Russian migrants are highly diverse, both socially and in terms of their views and adaptation strategies, Kopnina uncovers a community divided by mutual antagonisms, prompting many to reject the idea of belonging to a community at all.
  • Based on extensive interviews, this fascinating and unique ethnographic account of the <u>'new migration'</u> challenges the underlying assumptions of traditional migration studies and post-modern theories. It provides a powerful critique for the study of new migrant groups in Western Europe and the wider process of European identity formation.

tiny-mole [99]
They were eight factors why Western Rome fell, though it it did not fall right away, the empire has been gradually declining. One of factors of its decline is the constant invasion of Barbarian tribes. Western Rome were condtantly threatened by Germanic Tribes and suffered sting of losses that contibuted to the economic problems. Western Rome was also very dependent on their slave and government official were spending too much. They even resulted to abusive taxation just to stabilized their economy. Aside from that they were also suffering from labor deficit. The rise of the Eastern empore contributed to the downfall of the West. Both halves of the empire failed to work harmoniously and often times fight over resources and military aid. Many Germanic Tribes were afraid to attact the East empire because they were fortified compared to the West. Overexpansion also cause the downfall of Rome. Because of its expansive territory, it is hard for officials to govern the state. Corruption and political instabilty also caused the downfall of Rome. Leaders were not effecient as well as the were not qualified. Another factor of their downfall, the arrival of the Huns and Migration of the Germanic Tribes. When the Huns invaded the territories of the Germanic, these tribes were pushed back towards the northern part of the territory. Roman soldiers were also very cruel to these tribes, resulting these tribes to revolt against the empire. Christianity and loss of tradition values was another factor. Many church leaders had seek powere and meddle in the political affairs of the state, thus complicating it further. Lastly, the weakening of the military force of Rome. They had failed to get good soldier as well as hiring foreign soldiers with zero loyalty to the state.
