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.

Question 1: Napoleon Bonaparte claimed to have put into practice the ideals of the French Revolution and the Enlightenment. Do y
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

Question 1: Actually, he did not.  If he did export and spread the ideals of the Revolution, why did he appoint his brothers and other people to high points in government?  Apart from that, they held the position of kings and monarchs which is opposite to the ideals of the Revolution.  It should be that the people have the right to decide for themselves but they didn’t.  Instead, they lived in fear and rebelled against him.

Question 2: Both revolutions started rather moderately, with people demanding more representation in government. Neither gained the full support of everyone in the respective nations either, as evidenced by Loyalists in the US and counterrevolutions in areas like the Vendee in France. In France, the revolution became more radical and ideological, taking Enlightenment ideals and rationalism to the extreme. The revolution in France also led to the dictatorship of Napoleon and the restoration is Bourbon monarchs, so ultimately a return to the status quo, while the American Revolution was successful in gaining American independence. Furthermore, the French Revolution was fought in France while the American Revolution was fought in the colonies of England and never sought to completely depose George III, just remove his control of the colonies.

Why did President Eisenhower send federal troops to help integrate a Little Rock high school?
nekit [7.7K]
<span>In September 1957 the school board in Little rock, Arkansas, won a court order to admit nine African American students to Central High a school with 2,000 white students. The governor ordered troops from Arkansas National Guard to prevent them from entering the school. The next day as the National Guard troops surrounded the school, an angry white mob joined the troops to protest the integration plan and to intimidate the AA students trying to register. The mob violence pushed Eisenhower's patience to the breaking point. He immediately ordered the US Army to send troops to Little Rock to protect and escort them for the full school year.
