History
1 answer:
AleksandrR [38]4 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Ancient Egyptians developed a postal service that dates back to 2000 B.C.; the oldest postal system in the world. The main mode of transportation was through the Nile River. The letters were placed in a box escorted by guards. At the time, the postal services were exclusive to the pharaohs. The postal museum displays messaged between Amenhotep and Akhenaten where they would update each other on political developments. As the methods of transportation developed, so did the post delivery service. The Ptolemaic era, 305 B.C., a new method of transportation was introduced. Carriers would deliver messages with the help of horses. This era also had the earliest documentation of what is now known as “express mail” and “regular mail”. The express mail services were exclusive to state officials and rulers while the latter was used by the wider public and was delivered by a postman on a donkey or mule.

Which of the following is a true statement about the Second Battle of Bull Run?
Alex

Answer:

It placed the Union capital in danger.

Explanation:

The Second Battle of Bull Run took place between August 29 and August 30, 1862, during the Civil War.

Both the Union's and the Confederacy's armies received news of the advance of the other group in the morning. Major General Pope launched a series of attacks in an attempt to break through the defense of the Confederacy. The Northern Army battled with Jackson's men until the afternoon and retreated.  

The next day, after observing the marching route of the Confederate Army, Pope mistakenly thought that they were retreating, and immediately ordered his subordinates, including McClellan’s army chase, that one or two divisions followed the Southern Army, while the other three were going to surround it, trying to trap it.

Unexpectedly, it turned out that the Southern Army was only deploying troops to extend the front and attempted to strike its flanks when the Northern Army attacked. The northern army's offensive troops were soon bombarded by the southern army. However, the North Army continued to move forward, attacking Jackson’s defense, and Longstreet took the opportunity to attack the North Army's left wing. After successfully attacking with Jackson, he attacked the center of the North Army, forcing Pope and his men to retreat towards Washington DC.

The victory encouraged the Southern Army to take the initiative to launch aggression towards the north, and the Maryland Campaign, aimed at reaching Washington DC, began soon.

Why the us was so unprepared for entry into w2
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

The US without a draft had only 100,000 troops. That's tiny compared to millions of Nazi soldiers. As for Pearl Harbor and Japan, the US underestimated the Japanese ability to attack the US and its strength. The US also was not in conflict with Japan and did not expect a sneak attack by them early in the morning.
