Answer:

D. is the correct option

Explanation:

Andrew Jackson was the seventh president of the USA. After becoming president he removed high ranking officials by claiming that he was purging corrupt officials. He started the " rotation office" system by saying that this system will allow honest citizens to serve the government. Instead of reforming the government he appointed the loyal ones to various posts. Newspaper editors who supported his cause received special favor. Jackson made Samuel Swartwout the collector of New York City, the collector later fled with one million dollars. Personal loyalty to him was the primary reason for the appointment to federal offices.

Which of the following statements best describes why President Truman fired General Douglas MacArthur in 1951?
bixtya [17]
MacArthur had publicly criticized Truman’s approach to the war.

President Eisenhower could not tolerate insubordination by one of his generals.  Dwight Eisenhower had been a military general himself (during World War II).  But in 1950, when North Korean forces invaded South Korea, Eisenhower was in the position of civilian commander in chief as President of the United States.  General MacArthur wanted to bomb the People's Republic of China and also use Nationalist Chinese forces from Taiwan in an attack on communist China.  President Eisenhower would not grant these requests to escalate the war, and MacArthur made his opposition to Truman's policies a public argument.  Eisenhower felt he had to relieve MacArthur of his command and maintain respect for civilian control of the military, with the President as Commander-in-Chief.

BRIEFLY summarize the events of the Revolution in MEXICO.
natulia [17]

Answer:

Explanation:The Mexican Revolution broke out in 1910, with the call for national rebellion against the dictatorship of Porfirio Díaz convened by Francisco I. Madero. However, the oppressed social classes, especially the peasants, also demanded a series of economic and social reforms that the well-off sectors were not willing to accept.

If u want something more large is this one:

In 1910, Francisco Madero called for the national rebellion against the dictator Porfirio Díaz. Leaders like Emiliano Zapata and Pancho Villa supported him, getting the tyrant to resign and flee to Europe.

Madero took power in 1911. He made some reforms, but Zapata and Villa demanded land for the peasants. Meanwhile, the landowners got Victoriano Huerta to take power by killing Madero in 1913. Venustiano Carranza managed to overthrow him in 1915 and in 1917 he promulgated the Constitution of Querétaro, which implemented social rights, agrarian reform and the nationalization of oil. And in 1919, his men murdered Emiliano Zapata.

In 1920, Carranza was killed by men from Álvaro Obregón, who later took power. In 1923, the landowners killed Pancho Villa. Only President Lázaro Cárdenas made the Agrarian Reform a reality in 1937 and the Nationalization of Petroleum in 1938.
