Why was the United States considered a World Leader at the end of the Second World War?

History
1 answer:
sashaice [31]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

By the end of World War II, the United States had established itself as the world's leading power in economic, political, and military terms. This mainly happened due to a number of factors:

-On the one hand, the war had ended the imperialist aspirations of Germany, Italy and Japan, reducing their influence and capacity to minimal, almost peripheral levels.

-In the case of the United Kingdom, France and the Soviet Union, these countries had suffered the war in their own territory and for an extended period of time, with which the material, demographic and economic damages were considerable and had diminished their power.

-in contrast, the United States had not had (except the attack on Pearl Harbor) direct consequences of the war on its territory. In addition, America entered the war 3 years after its inception, with which the political and economic wear was less.

-During its period of neutrality between 1938 and 1941, America dedicated itself to large-scale trade with the Allies, enlarging its trade surplus.

-In addition, the United States granted large amounts of loans to these countries, with which they owed not only large sums of money, but an enormous gratitude for the assistance in conflict, which would result in political power.

All these factors contributed to the imposition of the United States as the first world power at the end of the war.

Why were Egypt's pharaohs unusually powerful rulers
allsm [11]
The concept of separation between religion and state wasn't valued in Ancient Egypt. Therefore, the two were heavily interconnected. 
One of the traditions of the religion of the Ancient Egyptians was that the Pharaoh was the living embodiment of the god Horus, who was believed to be a god of birthright, among other things. After the Pharaoh's death, he/she was identified with the god of the Underworld, Osiris. Thus, the living ruler was divine, and his word was the word of the gods.

McCarthy noted that “we are engaged in a final, all out battle.” How did he characterize
sp2606 [1]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

McCarthy noted that “we are engaged in a final, all-out battle.” How did he characterize the two sides in the “battle”?

What Republican Wisconsin Senator Joseph McCarthy did was to confront the American People by accusing that several members of the federal government and the US military had ties with Communists or were Communists.

Why do you think he portrayed the Cold War in this manner?

I think he was a cruel person with peculiar political ambitions because he did accuse people but never present a valid or serious argument or piece of evidence to support his claims. He only accused people, affecting their public image and reputation. And that was so wrong. However, he scared and alienated many citizens and made the federal government investigate the alleged cases.
