solniwko [45]

The United States emerged as a great industrial power following World War I -- the most powerful nation in the world, in fact.


The growth of the United States as the world's leader in industry had been proceeding rapidly already prior to the Great War (which we know as World War I). By 1900, 38% of the world's wealth was held by the United States. By 1914, the US produced as much coal as Britain and Germany combined, as well as producing over 40% of the world's iron.


But before World War I, the United States tended to take an isolationist stance toward other nations. World War I advanced the US into superpower status as a nation that used its industrial might to involve itself in global affairs.

The battle of Dien Bien in 1954 resulted in
koban [17]
<span>The Battle of Dien Bien Phu was the decisive engagement in the first Indochina War(1946–54). After French forces occupied the Dien Bien Phu valley in late 1953, Viet Minh commander Vo Nguyen Giap amassed troops and placed heavy artillery in caves of the mountains overlooking the French camp...........................</span>The battle that settled the fate of French Indochina was initiated in November 1953, when Viet Minh forces at Chinese insistence moved to attack Lai Chau, the capital of the T’ai Federation (in Upper Tonkin), which was loyal to the French. As Peking had hoped, the French commander in chief in Indochina, General Henri Navarre, came out to defend his allies because he believed the T’ai “maquis” formed a significant threat in the Viet Minh “rear” (the T’ai supplied the French with opium that was sold to finance French special operations) and wanted to prevent a Viet Minh sweep into Laos. Because he considered Lai Chau impossible to defend, on November 20, Navarre launched Operation Castor with a paratroop drop on the broad valley of Dien Bien Phu, which was rapidly transformed into a defensive perimeter of eight strong points organized around an airstrip. When, in December 1953, the T’ais attempted to march out of Lai Chau for Dien Bien Phu, they were badly mauled by Viet Minh forces.

Viet Minh commander Vo Nguyen Giap,with considerable Chinese aide, massed troops and placed heavy artillery in caves in the mountains overlooking the French camp. On March 13, 1954, Giap launched a massive assault on strong point Beatrice, which fell in a matter of hours. Strong points Gabrielle and Anne-Marie were overrun during the next two days, which denied the French use of the airfield, the key to the French defense. Reduced to airdrops for supplies and reinforcement, unable to evacuate their wounded, under constant artillery bombardment, and at the extreme limit of air range, the French camp’s morale began to fray. As the monsoons transformed the camp from a dust bowl into a morass of mud, an increasing number of soldiers–almost four thousand by the end of the siege in May–deserted to caves along the Nam Yum River, which traversed the camp; they emerged only to seize supplies dropped for the defenders. The “Rats of Nam Yum” became POWs when the garrison surrendered on May 7.

<span>Despite these early successes, Giap’s offensives sputtered out before the tenacious resistance of French paratroops and legionnaires. On April 6, horrific losses and low morale among the attackers caused Giap to suspend his offensives. Some of his commanders, fearing U.S. air intervention, began to speak of withdrawal. Again, the Chinese, in search of a spectacular victory to carry to the Geneva talks scheduled for the summer, intervened to stiffen Viet Minh resolve: reinforcements were brought in, as were Katyusha multitube rocket launchers, while Chinese military engineers retrained the Viet Minh in siege tactics. When Giap resumed his attacks, human wave assaults were abandoned in favor of siege techniques that pushed forward webs of trenches  to isolate French strong points. The French perimeter was gradually reduced until, on May 7, resistance ceased. The shock and agony of the dramatic loss of a garrison of around fourteen thousand men allowed French prime minister Pierre Mendes to muster enough parliamentary support to sign the Geneva Accords of July 1954, which essentially ended the French presence in Indochina</span>.

Why did the Renaissance begin in northern Italy?
Andrei [34K]

Answer: The Renaissance was a rebirth of ancient Greek and Roman thinking and styles, and both the Roman and Greek civilizations were Mediterranean cultures, as is Italy. The best single reason for Italy as the birthplace of the Renaissance was the concentration of wealth, power, and intellect in the Church.

Explain:

One major reason the Renaissance began in Italy is linked to geography. The city-states of Italy,

positioned on the Mediterranean Sea, were centers for trade and commerce, the first port of call for

both goods and new ideas.

Secondly, Italy was the core of the former Roman empire, and, at the collapse of the Byzantine empire

in 1453, became the refuge for the intellectuals of Constantinople who brought with them many of the

great works of the ancient Greeks and Romans, works that had been lost to the West during the Dark

Ages. Prior to this, scholars in Italy had been examining the works of the ancients, but they were of poor

quality and often incomplete.

The third reason was political. Due to various political intrigues, the Holy Roman Empire had essentially

lost power in northern Italy, the papal states were governed by various leading families within each

region, and the city of Naples dominated the South. This vacuum of leadership allowed merchant

families to gain considerate power within each city-state and thus revised the laws governing banking,

commerce, shipping, and trade. This freer atmosphere led to a busy exchange of both goods and ideas.
