Why did harry Truman contribute to World War II?

History

Aleks [24]3 years ago

Because he wanted to end war as fast as possible

Explanation:

  • Truman was vice president for only 82 days before President Roosevelt died.
  • He had very little significant discussions on world affairs and domestic politics after taking the oath of office for Roosevelt's vice president and was completely unaware of major initiatives to continue the successful war - most notably the secret project Manhattan, which at the time of Roosevelt's death, was on the highlight of testing the first atomic bomb.
  • Truman was soon briefed on the Manhattan Project and approved the use of nuclear weapons against Japan in August 1945 after the Potsdam Declaration was rejected by the Japanese Empire.
  • The atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki remained to this day the first, but also the only, use of nuclear weapons for war purposes. The bombing was followed by the rapid capitulation of Japan on September 2, 1945, and the end of World War II. The use of nuclear weapons was not controversial at the time, both in the US and among its allies.
  • At the Potsdam Conference, Joseph Stalin advised Truman to use the atomic bomb as soon as possible. In the years following the bombing, Truman's decision became extremely controversial, and it was said why he decided to do so.

Why was industrialization more difficult for russia despite its large population?
Law Incorporation [45]
The large Russian population in the 19th century remained primarily rural, not moving to cities.  Most of the rural population were former serfs who continued to work at agriculture in old world ways.

Between 1850 and 1900, Russia's population doubled but remained mainly rural.  And that rural population operated mostly in small, peasant farm fashion.  There wasn't the same acceleration toward urbanization seen in nations that were industrializing more rapidly.  Russia's autocratic government under the tsars was also not ready for the sort of progress needed for industrialization.

How is the policymaking process different in the Senate than it is in the House?
Grace [21]
When the Framers created a bicameral legislature, they created a system of checks and balances within Congress by requiring a bill to be passed in both chambers.

The structures, powers, and functions of the House of Representatives and the Senate are different, and these differences can affect the policymaking process: for example, by accelerating it or slowing it down, and by the extent to which bipartisan collaboration is or is not facilitated.
