Hitler did not take into consideration the prevailing weather and climatic landscape of soviet Russia.

He attacked on winter and the rest of history. Russians retreated from the cities, often with a scorch Earth policy, and of the German forces that entered Russia: cold and hunger destroyed over 70% of the forces.

Only a handful reached Poland. The soviets red army then striked back.

Why did President Truman decide to use atomic bombs against Japan in 1945?
sleet_krkn [62]
<span>President Truman decided to use the bomb for many reasons. Having not knowledge about the existence of the bomb until his presidency, he saw it as a new weapon developed by the US and that should be used for that purpose. Secondly, Truman wanted to avoid an invasion of Japan because it would be extremely costly, difficult, and simply horrible. It also meant the loss of many more American lives since the Japanese attacks were so brutal. Truman hoped that the use of the bomb would and it's astonishing effects would be enough for Japan to surrender and they would not have to invade them. Lastly, Truman wanted to use it to show the soviets of it's power for post world war II policies. I personally believe that Truman did the right thing. It was evident in all the battles in the pacific that Japan was extremely stubborn and would do anything but admit defeat. Just taking over the underpopulated islands on the way to Japan was very difficult because of the Japanese's tireless efforts. I think that the only way to make them surrender was to scare them into a surrender. The back and forth combat wasn't completely useless but exhausting and would make the war last longer than needed.The Japanese were so focused on fighting and trying to harm us, that they trained their soldiers to die in the desperate kamikaze attacks. I really don't think that invading their homeland would lead to a surrender or end to the war. Not only would they not surrender, but many american lives would be lost in the process unnecessarily. The bomb was ready, and functional.</span>

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]
One important factor was Russia’s harsh climate, Russia is brutally cold and because of that he was not prepared for the weather and climate that would face him. I’m not sure of the second reason though

dusya [7]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

You forgot to include the options for this question. However, we can answer the following.

Englands Jamestown settlement can best be compared to the colonization efforts of the Spanish, in that the colonists planned to establish colonies for increased political gain.

That is why the colony of Jamestown, Virginia, can be compared to the colonization efforts of the Spaniards in México and South America. The Jamestown colony was founded in 1607. English colonists made the trip to the North American territory under the sponsorship of the VirginiaCompany of England. They arrive in May 1607 to establish the first formal English colony in North America. English people wanted to exploit the many raw materials and natural resources found in the new territories to make profits and become wealthy men.
