How was ww2 going for the allies in late 1940

History
1 answer:
Kitty [74]3 years ago
4 0

For the Allies - Britain, Canada, Australia and New Zealand - it was going VERY badly. The British Army had been driven out of Europe, with the loss of all its equipment, France had been forced to surrender, British cities were suffering nightly bombing, the approaches to seaports were being blocked by ships sunk by the new, and then unsweepable, magnetic mines, U-boats were wreaking havoc on the vital Atlantic convoys. The only "bright spot" was in North Africa, where Wavell had totally defeated the Italians, but that was to be short-lived, many of his troops being diverted to Greece and lost there, and the Mediterranean Fleet having heavy losses off Crete.

The U.S. was "well out of it", and, very sensibly, was likely to remain so !

What was the effect of the Berlin Airlift?
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

Option C, is the right answer.

Explanation:

The Berlin Airlift begins at the time when the Soviet Union blocked road and rail travel into West Berlin. This blockade was enacted by the Soviet Union in response to the refusal of the U.S. and Britain to provide Russia more say in the economy of Germany. To break the blockade, President Truman could not take direct military action as it could cause World War III, so he ordered a massive airlift of necessary goods into West Berlin. The successful U.S. airlift led the Soviet Union to end the blockade. The end of the blockade led Germany to become a separate and independent nation. The effect can be seen in the fact that West Berlin was regarded as the Island of Freedom throughout the Cold War.

Where do we see amendment 4 today ?
pantera1 [17]

Well amendment 4 is rights to searches and seizures and when people come to search your house, they would need a search warrant stating exactly what they are searching for. Otherwise they cannot legally search your house, and with that they cannot look for anything other then what is stated in the warrant.

How does South America‘s location over the equator affect its overall climate
viva [34]

Answer:

South America extends as far south of the equator as the Alaska panhandle does north. Yes, they have glaciers down there and even a respectable ice cap. Along the Equator itself you have the Amazon rain forest and Volcan Cayambe, the only place on earth where there is permanent snow on the Equator. Let me suggest you take some geography courses so you can know what the world is really like instead of saying stereotypical things like South America is like [something] because “it’s on the equator.”
