Why is Haiti important to the United States? How close is it? What economic ties did it have to the United States at the time?

1 answer:

3 0

Haiti became a focus of interest for the great powers in the early twentieth century mainly because of the country's strategic location. Competition among the United States, Germany, France, and Britain resulted in the breaching of Haiti's sovereignty and the nineteen-year occupation by United States forces.

Haiti has maintained a long-standing relationship with the United States. Haitians have perceived economic ties to the United States as vital. The United States was Haiti's primary trading partner for both exports and imports, its most important source of foreign assistance, and the primary target of Haitian emigration. A large number of private voluntary agencies from the United States functioned in Haiti. The assembly industry of Port-au-Prince was closely tied to the United States economy. In short, the economic and the political influence of the United States in Haiti was more powerful than the influence of any other country.

The correct answer is B) The church of Scientology.

The group, often categorized as an NRM or cult, has received a lot of criticism from celebrities and former members speaking out about the practices that alienate members from family and friends who disagree with the teachings, is the church of Scientology.

Let's clarify first that NRM means "new religious movement." It is a name given to new spiritual or alternative teachings, sometimes in metaphysics are, that are growing in different parts of the world.

The church of Scientology has created so much controversy due to the things or worship that recently has made the news. It is covered in mass media due to the fact that some of its members are popular Hollywood artists that often are on the front pages of magazines, newspapers, on TV, and today, in social media.

We are talking about people like Tom Cruise, John Travolta, Kathie Holmes, and many others. Some of them had left that church that many people call a cult.
