What military advantage did Germany have over France at the beginning of
k0ka [10]

Answer:

D. Germany had rebuilt quickly following World War I, while France's

economy was in ruins.

Explanation:

The battle of France in the context of World War II began after the attack of the <em>Wehrmacht</em> (German armed forces) on the territory of France and the Benelux on May 10, 1940, and ended with the capitulation of the French government on 25 June of the same year. After the German invasion of Poland in September 1939, France and the United Kingdom declared war on the invading country. However, the Western Front remained inactive for more than seven months. During this time of relative peace, the French backed down behind the Maginot Line and prepared with the English a defensive line along the border between France and Belgium, which had declared itself neutral, thus compromising the effectiveness of the Allied defense. The situation in London and Paris was one of confidence in the German defeat, although the rapid Axis victories in Poland and Norway began to make the Allies nervous. France had lost all its best weapons by that time as well as its best divisions, and its armored forces were void. Without reservations to repel the German advance through France, they ran free throughout the north and center of the country.

5 reasons why christianity grew in the roman empire
nadya68 [22]
The spread of Christianity was made a lot easier by the efficiency of the Roman Empire, but its principles were sometimes misunderstood and membership of the sect could be dangerous.

Early Christians<span>The spread of Christianity was made a lot easier by the efficiency of the Roman Empire, but its principles were sometimes misunderstood and membership of the sect could be dangerous. </span>

Although Jesus had died, his message had not. Word of his teachings spread to Jewish communities across the empire. This was helped by energetic apostles, such as Paul and by the modern communications of the Roman Empire. 

<span>Spreading the word </span>

Over 30 years, Paul clocked up around 10,000 miles, traveling across the Roman Empire. He preached in some of the empire’s most important cities. Although places like Ephesus, Philippi, Corinth and Athens looked magnificent, they were also home to tens of thousands of poor, desperate people who were the perfect audience for the Christian message of eternal life. 

Like Jesus, Paul spoke to people in their homes and synagogues. But he went beyond Jesus, who had only preached to Jews. Paul believed his message should also be taken to gentiles – the non-Jews.

Who has more control on society, the government or social media
atroni [7]

Honestly,I feel that this question has 2 different perspectives.

For the government,in order to garner the citizens' support,they might use different ways to get support,for example,using financial aid schemes or propaganda like during H*tler's Minister of Propaganda, Joseph Goebbels by using mass censorship, or using programs such as the H*tler Youth to brainwash children. However, in modern society these methods used by H*tler would not be tolerated as there is social media around to 'cancel' these and make sure these form of acts are eradicated.

For social media, celebrities and prominent figures have support through their fan base. These fans may feel whatever their idols say may be right, however, this might lead to dangerous acts or arguments taking place different celebrities' fan bases and if the celebrities don't step in,it might lead to their downfall or the situation getting our of hand.

Some extra info ^^ :

Joseph Goebbels was a loyal follower of H*tler, after H*tler k*lled himself, Joseph Goebbels could not imagine a world without H*tler so he poisoned his 6 children and k*lled himself and his wife.

This is my own personal opinion btw :))

Hope this helps :]

P.s. Can you mark me as the Branliest? <3
