<span>C. Cuba's communist leaders demanded Soviet military support after U.S.-trained soldiers had invaded Cuba.

The invasion of US-trained soldiers occurred in 1961 -- The Bay of Pigs Invasion.  Cuban exiles trained by the USA's Central Intelligence Agency aimed to overthrow the communist government of Fidel Castro in Cuba, but failed.

Cuba requested that the USSR, as its communist sponsor, place missiles in Cuba to deter further US-sponsored action against the Castro regime.  That request, coupled with the fact of American missiles that were located in Europe, within striking distance of the USSR, prompted Nikita Khrushchev of the USSR to send the missiles to Cuba.

Why were the Balkans called the “powder keg” of Europe?
Xelga [282]

Answer: Balkans were called the "powder keg" of Europe because of the tensions and conflicts in the political situation going on. The Balkans consisted of numerous ethnic people, different religious groups, several  cultural backgrounds.

Explanation:

The Balkans were preceded by World War 1 and in the early 20th century. Men from several countries joined the Balkan League because some were still under Ottoman rule even though independence had been achieved. It only took 4 states to defeat the Ottomans during the first war. However, Bulgaria was defeated in the 2nd war. When the "powder keg" finally exploded after fighting back and forth, this was when  the first World War was started.
