Answer:

The task of stopping Lee at Gettysburg was assigned to General George Gordon Meade.

Explanation:

Once General Robert E. Lee began his offensive against Pennsylvania on June 3, 1863, on June 28, 1863, after Major General John Reynolds refused to be called himself, Meade was appointed general of the army, just three days before the Battle of Gettysburg. At first, Meade thought of setting up a defensive line behind Pipe Creek, but accepted the recommendation from Winfield Scott Hancock that he would do better if he concentrated the troops at Gettysburg.In the face of Lee's bloody offensive in Gettysburg, he scattered his forces among the threatened federal lines, just in time to stop each of the Confederate Army chief's assaults.

Why did the athenians stay within their walled city during the peloponnesian wars
Vadim26 [7]

The Peloponnesian wars fough between Sparta and Athens in ancient Greece, finished around 2400 BCE, with the siege of Athens. The reason for this siege was that the Athenian power had been undermined by different losses, including that of the battle of Aegospotami, in which their fleet, composed by around 180 vessels, was reduced to 10.  

Sparta was under siege. Starvation led to diplomacy, and finally,after a few failed attempts an agreement was reached with Sparta which was rather beneficial to Athens, and this was the conclusion of the Peloponnesian War.

How did world war 1 hurt business in Europe even after the war
soldier1979 [14.2K]
Post-war, all of the combatants were rather weighed down by large amounts of debt they had accumulated during the war. This, combined with rapid overproduction of currency, caused hyperinflation and doomed global economies, later leading to the Great Depression.
