How did the Cold War influence desegregation in the U.S.?
sertanlavr [38]

Answer: It encouraged the U.S. to desegregate, because the Soviets claimed they supported equality for all people.

Explanation:

The United States kept claiming to be the beacon of democracy and equality around the world yet she was segregating against members of her own citizenry by keeping black people against from white people.

The Soviet Union always seized upon this to show the world that the U.S. was not actually equal and that the Soviet Union was more equal than the U.S. This was during the time of the Cold War and the U.S. did not like the fact that the Soviets held the moral high ground and so actively tried to end segregation.

Which BEST describes a result of British colonization of Australia?
jekas [21]

The correct answer is - D. Australia is a modern, independent country, but it still has a few ties with Great Britain.

Australia is a country that has been established by Great Britain. It has been settled initially by British people in the colonization period, and the country has been set on the cultural foundations of Great Britain.

That has led to a good development of the country since it has been established, and it has always kept the pace with Great Britain and the other Western countries. Because of that, Australia quickly developed into an independent, modern, strong country, similar in many ways to its founder country.

Despite being independent country and very far away from Great Britain, Australia has always kept good and close ties with the country that made it what it is.

Zinaida [17]
Yes the boycott was successful due to that fact that the taxes on the colonies were so high that the British depended a lot on tax of the exports and merchandise that they were producing. But because of the boycott they weren’t becoming as financially stable as they should of been. Because of these taxes and boycotting it would later lead to the American Revolution
