Answer:

In politics and government, a spoils system (also known as a patronage system) is a practice in which a political party, after winning an election, gives government civil service jobs to its supporters, friends, and relatives as a reward for working toward victory, and as an incentive to keep working for the party—as opposed to a merit system, where offices are awarded on the basis of some measure of merit, independent of political activity.

andrew11 [14]

Answer:

The Strategic Arms Limitation Treaty II aimed to:

b. Banned any new development of nuclear weapons

d. Managed to reduce the size of their nuclear arsenals

Explanation:

The Strategic Arms Limitation Treaty II or SALT II was the continuation of a previous attempt to regulate the nuclear arms threat between the US and the USSR.  This happened during a period known as the Cold War where the world was divided into 2 blocks competing for power: the Capitalist block led by the US, and the Communist block led by the USSR.

Both countries had developed large arsenals of nuclear weapons and a war between them would've had catastrophic consequences.  Talks between President Jimmy Carter and Premier Brezhnev began in November 1974.  They agreed to: limit the size of their nuclear arsenals, limit the development of new weapons, and limit the deployment of new offensive weapons.  

The treaty was signed on June 18, 1979.
