Answer:

Explanation:

In general, banks charge interest because that's how they make their money, at least that's what banks used to do. Interest is what they manufacture for their stockholders. Now they do all sorts of things they shouldn't.

If you mean why do they raise interest rates when there is inflation, that is really an excellent question. The hope is that they are making money more expensive to borrow. It affects the money cycle. It makes it harder for people to borrow money so they can spend it on things that they need like housing or cars.

If there is large inflation, then high interest rates protect the bands when money will buy less than before the large inflation. It's an attempt to stabilize money.

Good Morning!

Explain WHY the central region would favor the Central powers.

natali 33 [55]

As well as providing the alliance with its name, the geographical position of the German and Austro-Hungarian empires also gave the Central Powers at least one very important strategic advantage over the Allies they were fighting. It was much easier for the Germans and Austro-Hungarians to move troops, equipment and supplies from one battle front to another because they could do much of this on their domestic railway networks.

For example, the Germans could move 10 infantry divisions from the Eastern Front to the Western Front via a relatively straightforward journey across Germany. It was no more difficult for the Austro-Hungarians to move five infantry divisions from the Eastern Front to the Italian Front, or to the Salonika Front in the Balkans.

Womb envy means that men envy women's ability to bear and feed children, and the experience of motherhood. Horney claimed that men compensate for their womb envy by taking up powerful positions and oppressing women.
