The answer is A. Fighting for it's existence. German forces defeated advancing Russians. The Ottoman empire joined central powers. Tsar Nicholas II took command of the Russian army. Also British forces landed in Gallipoli. Russia suffered thousands of casualties. There's the explanation, but some more proof is that I got an A on this test! :)

The first action on the Eastern front was the Russian invasion of East Prussia from August to September 1914. The Battle of Gumbinnen was the first victory for the Russian army on August 20th, 1914. However, days later, from August 23rd to 30th in 1914, the Germans recovered and defeated the Russians in the Battle of Tannenberg, taken around 100,000 prisoners and the Russian commander, Alexander Samsonov committed suicide because of the outcome of the battle. Russians also invaded the Kingdom of Galicia and they defeated the Austro-Hungarian army during the battle of Lemberg, forcing them to retire 160 kilometers. Summarizing all that happened on those first months, it's clear that the Russian army wasn't close to defeating the German army, didn't push back severely Germans and Ottomans and neither fighting for its existence. The correct answer is C. Neither losing nor gaining ground in the opening months of WWI.

Answer:

Several factors

Explanation:

Several factors influence party identification, and one of these factors is a person’s race. In the years following the Civil War, the majority of African Americans and Northerners favored the Republican Party. Many African Americans changed their party identification during the 1930s Depression Era, when they began supporting the Democratic Party and its New Deal policies. The 1960s civil rights movement marked another shift in which African Americans increasingly supported Democratic candidates at the polls. In the last half of the twentieth century, African Americans and Mexican Americans have tended to be Democrats. Conversely, other Hispanics such as Cubans have shown strong allegiance to the Republican Party.
