The first World War began as a local war between Austria-Hungary and Serbia in 1914. It grew into a war involving 32 countries. The Allies included Britain, France, Russia, Italy and the United States. These countries fought against the Central Powers which included Germany, Austria-Hungary, Ottoman Empire and Bulgaria.Archduke Ferdinand, of Austria-Hungary, was assassinated by a Serb on June 28, 1914. This was the formal start of the war, although the countries had problems with each other before that. The countries of Britain, France and Germany had all grown strong and had large armies. They all wanted to sell their products to foreign countries. Several times Britain and France had been in strong arguments with Germany over markets in Africa. Europe was divided into two groups who were hostile to each other.After the assassination, Austria declared war on Serbia. A few days later, Germany declared war on Russia, then on France. As the war progressed, other countries took sides and declared war. Finally the United States entered the war against Germany on April 6, 1917.

Read the excerpt from Executive Order 9066, which President Franklin D. Roosevelt issued following the Japanese attack on Pearl
Mamont248 [21]
Executive Order 9066 stated that all people (regardless of race, religion, ethnicity, etc.) from all military areas as "deemed necessary or desirable." Using this terminology allowed FDR and the federal government to not only move Japanese-American citizens but also German-American and Italian-American citizens. The reason why these three specific groups were targeted was because they were all part of the Axis Powers. So one of the correct answers would be the one that relates to the fact that all citizens could be moved by this act.

With the original terminology in mind, the military then declared the entire state of California as a war zone, allowing them to target a huge Japanese-American population (roughly 100,000+ people). However, there was no limit as to where the military could declare a war zone. Essentially, wherever the military saw fit, they could declare a war zone in order to move American citizens.

Sophie [7]

The correct answer is A) The Nazis built huge ovens to burn the bodies.

The reason why there was little evidence of the 120,000 people who had been killed at Babi Yar was that the Nazis built huge ovens to burn the bodies.

This was another chapter of the many atrocities committed by the Nazi Germans in times of Adolph Hitler.

On September 29, 1941, Hitler ordered to kill more than 30,000 Jewish people in Babi Yar in Kiev, Ukraine. Among the victims, there were men, women, and infants.

The killing continued after that massacre until 1943. To try to hide the evidence, Nazi soldiers tried to burn the bodies in pyres but local people witnessed the action.
