The options of the question should be, A) independent after the war. B) made into a Jewish homeland. C) made into a large nation called Trans-Jordan. D) closed to Jewish immigration.
The correct answer is A) independent after the war.
<em>During World War I, Great Britain promised that the Arabs provinces of the Middle East would be independent after the war.
</em>
In 1915, the British government needed the Arabs support to defeat the Ottoman Empire in World War I. To make it happen, Great Britain promised independence of its territories. To do so, the British government wrote some letters and sent it to the Arabs. The documents were named “McMahon-Hussein correspondence.” But the British also were secretly negotiating other terms with the governments of France and Russia. So the British lied to the Arabs.
Answer:
- The South would destroy the nation, but the North had to fight for the nation to survive.
Explanation:
The 16th U.S. president Abraham Lincoln's second inaugural address in 1865 primarily aims to recapitulate the cause of war and the destruction brought by it was the consequence of 'divine retribution' towards pursuing a sin like slavery.
In the given quotation, he expresses the idea of 'South bringing destruction to the nation' as they not only possessed slavery but rather showed a retribution towards it which was the key cause of Civil War and now, the North had been fighting for the survival of the nation from this war.' Thus, he concludes by hoping to 'strive to..bind up these wounds.'
The answer is D: Farmers and Laborers
Answer:
Total control of the Opium trade in China by the United Kingdom and the annexation of Hong Kong.
Explanation:
The Opium Wars were two warlike conflicts that occurred in the 19th century between the Chinese and British empires. The First lasted between 1839 and 1842. The Second, in which France became involved with the British, exploded in 1856 and lasted until 1860. Its causes were the commercial interests that created British opium smuggling in India and China and the efforts of the Chinese government to impose its laws on that trade.
In the spring of 1830, faced with the alarming and unrestrained abuse of the opium trade committed by the British in China, Emperor Daoguang ordered Lin Hse Tsu to combat this plague quickly, and he responded by stopping the corruption of the imperial civil servant and ordering the destruction of more than 20,000 Opium boxes
. Lin Hse Tsu sent a letter to Queen Victoria asking her to respect the rules of international trade and not trade with toxic substances.
The British responded attacking China.
The Chinese defeat in the two wars forced the government to tolerate the opium trade. The British coerced the Chinese to sign the Unequal Treaties, opening several ports to foreign trade and annexing Hong Kong.
