Answer: Benedict Arnold

Explanation:

Benedict Arnold made a name for himself in the American Revolution for the wrong reason of being a traitor. After pledging loyalty to and fighting for the American cause, he switched sides and fought for the British against the people he had once led.

Arnold claimed that he was disrespected in the American army because other officers usually took the credit for his operations. He was also accused of corruption and when investigated it was found that he had borrowed heavily from Congress to fund a lavish lifestyle.

After marrying a woman with British connections, he made plans to defect and surrender West Point in New York to the British but this plan was discovered whereupon he fled to the British and upon joining them, led battles against the Americans.

Otto von bismarck once said that a great war might someday be caused by some foolish thing in the balkans was he right?explain.

In reality yes and no. The assassination of Franz Ferdinand did occur in the Balkans, and was the result of a situation in the Balkans. However Franz Joseph declared war for other reasons as well. This is a topic I encourage you to research on your own. Not only if the cause came truly from the Balkans, but also if it was really "foolish".

The Great War channel on youtube has a lot of educational and helpful content regarding world war one's causes if you look for their "Prelude to war" specials in their channel.

Why do you think the Constitution allowed slavery to continue, even though the Declaration of Independence claimed that "all men
agasfer [191]
Well, George Washington and Thomas Jefferson desperately needed some rules in the US so they needed the majority approval to get it official. One of the biggest issues was about slavery. Many people were lazy and didn't want to do work on their own. Since the founders were so desperate they decided that they would just let slavery go on at least until it was done. They desperation got the best of them and they wrote that. To be honest, all this racism could've been stopped. Actually, it wouldn't have even happened. After the Constitution was approved, George Washington let his slaves go BUT, Thomas Jefferson let his slaves go after he died. How did he do that? In his will.

How did World War II change life for many women and African Americans?
Fantom [35]
More than 350,000 women enlisted during the war, mostly in the Women's Army Corps (WAC) and the nursing corps. 

<span>Some women were able to get better paid jobs than they had before the war. The women who went to work in the defense industry were mainly women who before the war were in poorly paid jobs. Peggy Terry, who got a job with her mother and sister at a shell-loading plant in kentucky, was euphoric "We made the fabulous sum of thirty-two dollars a week" she said. "To us it was an absolute miracle. Before the war we made nothing." As a result of the great migration of women to defense jobs, 600 laundries went out of business in 1942, and in Detroit, a third of the restaurants closed because of the lack of help. </span>
