Assuming you had to choose between:

<em>a. In case he died in battle, he wanted to make sure that reporters received his message.</em>

<em>b. It was a constant reminder of the personal responsibility he took for the fate of democracy in Europe and America and for the decision to send so many men into battle and certain death.</em>

<em>c. It had special meaning for him, because it was a private note from President Roosevelt.</em>

<em>d. Because he planned and implemented Operation Overlord all by himself.</em>

The answer is b. It was a constant reminder of the personal responsibility he took for the fate of democracy in Europe and America and for the decision to send so many men into battle and certain death.

Eisenhower had written a note called “In case of failure,” which he would have wanted to be published if the Normandy landing was not sucessful. This publication would have seen the blame attributed to himself alone. This document bears significant historical importance in that it shows Eisenhower's character as a war general and a leader.

7. How many times is a bill read as it makes its way through each chamber of the legislature during the legislative process?​
masya89 [10]

Answer:

Under the State Constitution, every bill must be read three times before it may be passed. The courts have held, however, that this requirement can be satisfied by reading the bill's title. Upon introduction, the bill's title is read a first and second time in the Senate and is read once in the House.

How was Mansa Musa's death a turning point for the Mali empire?
zalisa [80]

Answer:

The Mali Kingdom of West Africa first arose in the 13th century. Its founder, Sundiata, was the sole survivor of a massacre at the hand of an enemy king. Sundiata soon grew up to be a military genius and by 1250, reconquered all of the trade routes and former lands of Ghana and founded the kingdom of Mali (Mali means “where the king’s dwell”). The kings of Mali or “mansas” would continue to expand and strengthen the kingdom long after Sundiata dies.

Mansa Musa: Mansa Musa was the greatest king of Mali and reigned from 1312-1337. He expanded Mali’s borders north and west and made his empire safe and peaceful. He also converts to Islam and adopted Sharia law. Along with Mansa Musa, many higher class citizens of the empire also converted to Islam, however many commoners still retained their traditional animistic religion.  Mansa Musa’s hajj to Mecca, was probably a large turning point in African history for several reasons covered below. Mansa Musa also invites many Arab scholars to his capital city of Timbuktu, as well as architects to help beautify the city by building mosques out of dried mud that are still standing today.
