History
1 answer:
dedylja [7]3 years ago
7 0
The attack on Verdun came about because of a plan by the German Chief of general staff Von Falkenhayn. He wanted to "bleed France white" by launching a massive German attack on a narrow stretch of land that had historic value to the French - Verdun. The area around Verdun contained twenty major forts and forty smaller ones that had historically protected the eastern border of France. Falkenhayn believed that the French could not allow these forts to fall as the national humiliation would be too much. By fighting to the last man, Falkenhayn believed the French would lose so many men that the battle would change the course of the war.

The Khmer Rouge in Cambodia was primarily a result of
n200080 [17]

The correct answer is: an extreme political ideology.

Indeed, the movement’s ideology was a very dogmatic blend of several ideologies and outlooks. They were heavily Stalinist and Maoist in their leftism; extremely xenophobic against both foreigners and national non-Khmer minorities and extremely agrarian.

With regards to their Stalinist/Maoist outlook they believed in absolute obedience to the party and its leaders, with a set of inviolable strict rules and laws and the belief that the ends justified any means.

They loathed national minorities as they saw them as a stain on their national Khmer purity and they despised foreigners because they refused to ever be colonized again, whether by Westerners or Asians.

They also considered that urban, capitalistic society was a disease and sought to eradicate it by eradicating its people.
