Correct answer:

<h2>C. prevent further expansion of Soviet domination of other nations </h2>

Explanation/context:

The policy of containment set the tone for US foreign policy by focusing on keeping communism and the Soviet Union's influence limited, rather than by trying to confront the Soviet Union directly or eliminate communism completely.  

George F. Kennan was the one who recommended the policy of containment as the Cold War began.  Kennan was an American diplomat in Moscow after World War II.  In 1946, he sent what became known as "the long telegram" of his advice about what the USA needed to do about the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR).  In those days, everyone feared an ultimate confrontation between the USA and the USSR -- that the Cold War would someday explode into a massive heated conflict between the superpowers.  Kennan, in Moscow, had much foresight to see the internal problems the USSR had.  He advised not pushing the conflict too much, but instead just try to "contain" the Soviet Union and wait for their system to collapse under the weight of its own problems.  Kennan was right.  It took almost 50 years, but eventually the communist system in the USSR fell apart.  [The Union of Soviet Socialist Republics came to an end in 1991.]

Why was the United States military surprised by the Tet Offensive?
erica [24]

<em>Answer:</em>

<em>The Tet Offensive had an early attack, which caught people off guard.</em>

<em>Explanation:</em>

<em>So as we know, The Tet Offensive was a major military offensive launched by the army of North Vietnam against the United States and the South Vietnamese Army during the holiday of Tet during 1968.  The purpose of the offensive was to strike military and civilian command and control centers throughout South Vietnam and to spark a general uprising among the population that would then topple the Saigon government, thus ending the war in a single blow. So both North and South Vietnam announced on national radio broadcasts that there would be a two-day cease-fire during the holiday. </em>This early attack did not, however, cause undue alarm or lead to widespread allied defensive measures. When the main Viet Cong operation began the next morning, the offensive was countrywide in scope and well coordinated, with more than 80,000 communist troops striking more than 100 towns and cities, including 36 of 44 provincial capitals, five of the six autonomous cities, 72 of 245 district towns, and the national capital.

Which aspect of early 20th-century society does Hurston emphasize through the character of Mrs. Turner? People formed bonds base
Fudgin [204]

The aspect of early 20th-century society which <em>Hurston emphasized</em> through the character of Mrs. Turner is that <em>people were judged </em>based on their skin color.

As a result of this. we can see that the character of Mrs. Turner was the <em>perfect embodiment</em> of how people were treated in the <em>early 20th century</em> in America as racism was rife and people were judged not by their skills or what they could do, but by their skin color which was a sign of racial discrimination

Therefore, the correct answer is option B

Who were ronald reagan and franklin d.Roosevelt and what viewpoint did they share about the president term office
ANTONII [103]

Ronald Reagan was the U. S. president from 1981 to 1989. Franklin D. Roosevelt was also a U. S. president. He served from 1933 to his death in 1945.

Both presidents had an interest in serving for more than 8 years, the currently-accepted maximum length for a presidential term. Franklin D. Roosevelt was president four times, due to his popularity and success in restoring the economy after the Great Depression. Serving for two four-year terms had been an unwritten rule since George Washington, but it was not a law, which enabled FDR to stay in power for longer.

After his death, Amendment XXII was passed, limiting the time a president could serve to two periods of four years. However, in 1987, Reagan made public his interest to get rid of this amendment. He argued that the change would not apply to him, but to leaders from then on.
