Why didn’t cotton diplomacy work?

1 answer:

4 0

The cotton diplomacy was a huge mistake by the South. The cotton was one of the most important products in the South, and it was also a product on which the British and the French heavily relied on. The Confederacy tried to force the British and the French to ally with them in the Civil War by putting an embargo on the cotton. This didn't had any effect as wanted though, but it backfired. The British and the French found new sources for getting cotton, while the South turned out to put an embargo on itself, as it blocked its own product which badly affected its economy too.

The discovery of oil in South Sudan sparked the independence movement that eventually led to the division of country.

The Oil was discovered in Bentu and Heglig districts of South Sudan in 1978. The central government in Khartoum took over the oil districts of South Sudan which sparked rebellion in South Sudan and on the other hand South Sudan wanted to have a greater share in oil revenue. It resulted into conflict in Sudan for a long time and ultimately on 11 July 2011 South Sudan attained her Independence and thus lead to division of Sudan.

What do conspiracy theorists believe was the motivation for faking the moon landing in 1969?

Burka [1]

Explanation:

Moon landing conspiracy theories claim that some or all elements of the Apollo program and the associated Moon landings were hoaxes staged by NASA, possibly with the aid of other organizations. The most notable claim is that the six crewed landings (1969–1972) were faked and that twelve Apollo astronauts did not actually walk on the Moon. Various groups and individuals have made claims since the mid-1970s that NASA and others knowingly misled the public into believing the landings happened, by manufacturing, tampering with, or destroying evidence including photos, telemetry tapes, radio and TV transmissions, and Moon rock samples.
