use the info below as a template. write about the great depression and say that it is also linked to ww2 in this way.
the great depression is ..... it caused.....(this could have been prevented by....) this is also liked to ww2 by...
do that for 4 options below for a high grade
Unemployment
<span>Mass
unemployment (eg Germany) and poverty (eg Japan silk workers) caused
great anger = people put in power/accept right-wing, dictatorial
governments who told them their country was superior and it was OK for
them to take what they wanted by force.
It was the kind of thing they wanted to hear in the
circumstances. 25
countries became dictatorships 1929-39.</span>
</span><span>
America
<span>America
called in her loans to
Germany
. This caused the
collapse of
Germany
industry = led directly to Hitler’s rise to power.</span>
</span><span>
Politics
Many
leaders know that, when things get bad at home, one way to stay in
power is to turn people’s attention to foreign affairs/ direct
people’s hatred against other countries/ to have a few successes in
foreign policy = more aggressive, nationalistic foreign policy.
</span><span>
Empire-building
<span>In
the atmosphere of cut-throat economic trade, the answer of countries
like
Japan
&
Italy
was to build an empire – this would secure their supplies of raw
materials and natural resources.
Countries like
Japan
(
Manchuria
),
Italy
(
Abyssinia
) and
Germany
(eastern Europe), therefore, set about building an empire =
international conflict and tension.</span>
</span><span>
Self
Interest
<span>Countries
who were prepared to be philanthropic during the 1920s, could not
afford to give way during the 1930s = countries left the League
instead (eg Japan over
Manchuria
). Self-interest
destroyed the international co-operation ideal of
League of Nations
.</span>
</span><span>
<span>Britain
and
France
</span>
<span>were
suffering too – that was one reason why they did not send an army to
Manchuria
or impose sanctions on
Italy
over
Abyssinia
(could not afford). Again,
that was a reason they did not begin to rearm against Hitler in the
1930s = appeasement/ failure of
League of Nations
.</span></span></span>
France gave America the Statue Of Liberty as a symbol of peace and friendship which America and France developed during the war on independence. Hope this helps!
American leaders called for the replacement of the Articles of Confederation because it made the central government too weak.
Option: (d)
<u>Explanation:
</u>
The Articles of Confederation had to be withdrawn and replaced with a Constitution because they dispensed too much of power and authority to the states and left the President to serve as a nominal head.
The leaderships of states being too strong and free to form their own laws started behaving like independent entities.
This ultimately created a threat to the unity of the nation.
Moreover, many state leaders proposed that the federal government should get to exercise command over the state governments in order to secure broad and large national interests.
All these facts are from the A) Siege of Savannah, a battle during the Revolutionary war in which British regulars and loyalist volunteers faced the American Continental Army and militia regiments and a large contingent of French troops.
