Answer:

Ok so, The Cold War was a period of tension and hostility between the United States of America and the Soviet Union from the mid-40s to the late 80s. It began with the end of the Second World War. It was called the Cold War because there was no active war between the two nations, which was probably due to the fear of nuclear escalation. There were many indirect conflicts like the Vietnam and Korea wars. There was the Cuban missile crisis in 1962 which was the closest the world ever came to a nuclear war. An American U2 spy plane took photographs of Soviet intermediate ballistic missiles capable of carrying nuclear payloads. The Soviet Union sent a total of 42 medium range missiles and 24 intermediate range missiles to Cuba. The US threatened to invade Cuba over the issue. Ultimately the Soviets removed the missiles on America’s promise of not invading Cuba.

The map shows the union blockade of Florida costs during the Civil War. Which statement best explains why it was hard for the un

EleoNora [17]

Answer: A. Floria has a long coastline, which enabled some ships to sneak past the blockade and supply the confederate.

Explanation:

Soon after the Civil War broke out, General Winfield Scott under his “Anaconda Plan" engaged in a widespread blockade of Confederate Ports to crash their economy and bring about an end to the war faster.

Even though Florida had the lowest population of the Confederate States, the Union recognised that their long coastline would present a logistical problem and blockaded as many ports as they could.

However, because of the long coastline, there were many bays and inlets and thus avenues in that could not be guarded effectively which led to the rise of BLOCKADE RUNNERS who were usually British Citizen owned ships supplying the Confederates from the Bahamas and the Virgin Islands.
