Answer:

Grant and Sherman used the strategy of total war to shorten the war in their favor, using the many deaths of enemies to save lives on their side. We may never know if more would've died if they didn't use the tactic, but in my opinion civilian lives were not theirs to take. Soldiers agreed to die, but civilians didn't, making total war, in my opinion, not right. Others may say that their lives were a necessary sacrifice towards a common goal, but, in my opinion, if one side uses total war, can't the other side use it too for a horrible end? Form your own opinion, but that is mine.

How did the institution of slavery change in the course of the triangle trade and colonialism?
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

The Slavs have all been manufactured from Africa rather than just South America.  A further explanation is given below.

Explanation:

  • Ships sail from Liverpool but instead Bristol, United Kingdom, loaded with the most created to enhance throughout Africa, including certain pots, trousers, firearms, and white wine. Because once ships approach Africa, this same commander would then sell those other goods to street vendors, as well as the boats have been reconfigured to take some 400 slave owners.
  • Throughout the West Indies, people were brought and indeed the ship was stacked with goods including certain tobacco, sucrose but mostly cotton. Then perhaps the boat sailed back to England through its penultimate corner.

What us action in 1941 angered the Japanese and resulted on the bombing of Pearl harbor
DaniilM [7]
I looked this up

Japan's only chance was the element of surprise and to destroy America's navy as quickly as possible. Japan wanted to move into the Dutch East Indies and Malaya to conquer territories that could provide important natural resources such as oil and rubber.

War between Japan and the United States had been a possibility that each nation's military forces planned for in the 1920s, though real tension did not begin until the 1931 invasion of Manchuria by Japan.
