Answer:

South Vietnam was forcibly reunited with North Vietnam and became a single communist nation.

Explanation:

Newly elected President Richard M. Nixon declared in 1969 that he would continue the American involvement in the Vietnam War in order to end the conflict and secure "peace with honor" for the United States and for its ally, South Vietnam. Unfortunately, Communist North Vietnam's leaders, believing that time was on their side, steadfastly refused to negotiate seriously. Indeed, in March 1972 they attempted to bypass negotiations altogether with a full-scale invasion of the South. Called the Easter Offensive by the United States, the invasion at first appeared to succeed. By late summer, however, Nixon's massive application of American airpower blunted the offensive. At this point, the North Vietnamese began to negotiate in earnest. In early October, American and North Vietnamese representatives met in Paris. By October 11, they had hammered out a peace agreement. Its key elements were: all parties would initiate a cease-fire in place 24 hours after signing the agreement; U.S. forces and all foreign troops would withdraw from South Vietnam no later than 60 days after signing the agreement; American prisoners would be released simultaneously with the withdrawal of American and foreign forces, and a National Council of National Reconciliation and Concord would be created to organize and oversee free and democratic elections to determine the political future of the South.

The agreement represented a victory for the North Vietnamese but also it seemed to provide an honorable way out for the Americans. Nixon quickly approved the terms. On October 22, however, South Vietnamese President Nguyen Van Thieu stopped the process in its tracks. Especially infuriating to him was the cease-fire in place. It left thousands of North Vietnamese soldiers in South Vietnam (estimates ranged from 140,000 to 300,000) well-positioned to continue the war when the Americans departed.

Land, labor, capital, and entrepreneurship are the

const2013 [10]

Answer:

LAND:

In its simplest form, land is the physical place where economic activity takes place. However, land also includes all the natural resources found on it. Resources can include wood, water, oil, animals, etc. Land plays an important part in production because land itself and the resources on it are usually limited. Political regulations prevent a person from just going and claiming something for themselves, or there may not be enough for everyone to have. Also, many of the natural resources are nonrenewable, meaning that their amount is fixed, and they can't be used indefinitely. Thus, producers must carefully manage land and its resources.

LABOR:

It seems obvious, but things can't be produced unless someone makes them. Therefore, another important factor of production is labor. Labor represents all of the people that are available to transform resources into goods or services that can be purchased. This factor is somewhat flexible since different people can be allocated to produce different things. Nobody has to produce everything themselves. That would be impractical. It's also important that a labor force is well educated and well trained to ensure that they can produce goods at peak efficiency and quality.

CAPITAL:

Both of these things - money and equipment - are considered capital. More specifically, capital can be the money that companies use to buy resources, as well as the physical assets companies use when producing goods or services, such as factories and machinery. Capital is an important factor of production because it's what allows labor and land to be purchased. Steady streams of capital are often required in order to keep a business going.

ENTREPRENEURSHIP:

An entrepreneur is a person who combines the other factors of production - land, labor, and capital - to earn a profit. The most successful entrepreneurs are innovators who find new ways produce goods and services or who develop new goods and services to bring to market. Without the entrepreneur combining land, labor, and capital in new ways, many of the innovations we see around us would not exist. Entrepreneurs are a vital engine of economic growth helping to build some of the largest firms in the world as well as some of the small businesses in your neighborhood. Entrepreneurs thrive in economies where they have the freedom to start businesses and buy resources freely. The payment to entrepreneurship is profit.

This question refers to the text "Capitalism Will Eat Democracy — Unless We Speak Up." In it, Yanis Varoufakis talks about the importance of democracy and the dangers that uncontrolled capitalism poses to it.

In the text, Varoufakis argues that, unless we take control of capitalism, the future could be a dystopia in which economic concerns are the only important ones and democracy has disappeared. Instead, the utopia that he suggests is one in which we demand democracy, and a democracy that includes all individuals. He suggests we achieve this by speaking up and demanding that democracy is protected. If we fail, we risk losing democracy altogether and being controlled completely by the fluctuations of the market.
