The impact of the ethnic conflict in the Balkans was that over 100,000 people were killed and 1 million people displaced from their homes during this conflict. Refugees flooded neighboring European countries and the European Union, and NATO sent peacekeeping troops to the region to prevent the conflict from restarting.

Explanation:

The Balkan in the early 1990's was the most unstable part of Europe. Yugoslavia was coming by its end, and several extreme nationalist parties, mainly from Serbia and Croatia were gradually lifting up the tensions. As it was clear that Yugoslavia will fall apart, the largest federate states wanted to get as much as possible from the territory, with Serbia even wanting to occupy some of the other federate states and form a large Serbian country.

As the countries started to proclaim independence, Slovenia leading the pack, the first military offensive started between Slovenia and Serbia. Than the battle moved on in Bosnia, with the Serbians, Croatians, and Bosnian Muslims fighting against each other, resulting in several massacres and genocides. Only Macedonia managed to get out of Yugoslavia without military conflict, though it was under threat of it.

The end result was large scale destruction, thousands of people murdered, and huge migration wave toward Western Europe and the Nordic countries.

Out of the former Yugoslavia, several nations have been formed, some earlier, some later:

Serbia
Croatia
Bosnia and Herzegovina
Macedonia
Slovenia
Montenegro
Kosovo (not recognized by UN)

xeze [42]

The correct answer is - C. The river carried enormous amounts of silt.

The Yellow River, got this nickname because it is yellowish from the enormous amounts of silt it carries. When there were heavy rains, or the snow was melting, the river got more water, but also more silt, so the silt was partially blocking the free movement of all of the water, so it was flooding the surrounding are. In one way, the floods were terrible because they were destroying pretty much everything on their way, but on the other side, were living huge amounts of deposits that were fertilizing the soil for the agriculture.

Paul [167]

Answer:

Let's take a look at the modern day headphones we have now. They're airpods. Wirless. It used to be connected to wires. And those earbuds used to be headphones. And those headphones used to be heavy speakers.

Explanation:

How did they evolve with growth in technology? Back in the early 1890s, headphones were single-sided, heavy speakers that people would hold on to an ear to communicate. This later evolved into something known as an 'Electrophone'. It was a system consisting of a stethoscope-shaped headphone connected to a switchboard.

We started using them in the wars to communicate with the troops on the ground and now we use them to stay focused, to disappear and to give ourselves some time away from the stressful world we live in.
