History

GarryVolchara [31]3 years ago

Proxy wars were used by the United States and Soviet Union as a way to fight one another without resorting to actual war between the two nations. The United States tried to use proxy wars to contain communism, as they did in Guatemala by sponsoring a coup. The USSR engaged in a proxy war by supporting communist rebels in Nicaragua. Both nations used this strategy to promote their own influence and security.

The United States and the USSR were the lone remaining superpowers left after World War II.

As a result, they viewed proxy wars much like a chess player viewed moving a pawn. If they could get a strategic advantage in Algeria or El Salvador or Cuba, they would take it and lord it over the losing superpower.

Black_prince [1.1K]

Whenever white men wanted Native American land, the Native Americans were pushed further west. If they protested, they were killed. The eastern Native Americans mainly agreed to follow the white men ways. However, the western Native Americans refused to give up their way of life, and went to war with the settlers. Unfortunately, the settlers won the war, and 99% of all Native Americans were wiped out from the war, disease, etc.

how the media covers different event and occurrences, spaces allocated for advertisements and why certain topics are given promi
anastassius [24]

<span>The media does selection processes of what event to cover, what advertisements that should be given priority and be shown to the public, and what news topics are to be given utmost importance. These are all undergone during gate keeping. This controls over the selection of content that should be discussed in media whether it is of newsworthiness or not. Aside from gate keeping, priming is also done. It is the technique wherein a certain news, event, or occurrence is given utmost importance so that people would eventually think that it is really important. More importance given to a news, more importance attributed by the audience.</span>

dexar [7]

Struggles over the line of succession, is the right answer.

The empire of Mali was founded by Sundiata Keita around 1235 C.E when he united the tribes of the Malinke people. Over a course of time, Mali empire became stronger and took over surrounding kingdoms including the Ghana Empire. The empire began to lose its power in the 1400s ( began to lose its control along the edges of its borders) and finally collapsed in the 1600 C.E. Musa Mansa was the most famous ruler of the empire after whose death, his five sons divided what was left of the empire between them which resulted in the complete downfall of the Mali Empire.
