Correct answer: Creating the Environmental Protection Agency
Explanation/detail:
The formal recognition of China and Strategic Arms Limitations Talks (SALT) were <u>foreign</u> policy initiatives (not domestic).
As to interest rates, during the Nixon presidency, the Federal Reserve chairman, Arthur Burns, had begun raising interest rates. In 1971, President Nixon exerted pressure on Burns and "the Fed" to keep interest rates down, but that only led to a decade of high inflation that caused other economic problems. So that was not a success for Nixon.
<u>About the Environmental Protection Agency</u>
President Nixon signed an executive order establishing the Environmental Protection Agency in 1970. Subsequent committee hearings in the House of Representatives and the Senate ratified Nixon's order for the creation of the agency.
Environmental issues had been gaining much attention during the 1960s, and the need for oversight became clear. As Lily Rothman reported in a TIME magazine article:
- <em>An oil spill off the California coast in 1969 coated 400 square miles with slime and killed hundreds of birds. Scientists announced that auto exhaust was at high enough levels in some places that it could cause birth defects. The city of St. Louis smelled, as one resident put it, “like an old-fashioned drugstore on fire.”</em>

Nixon's administration felt it necessary to take action to address pollution problems in the American environment.

The correct answer would be <em><u>D. brought Britain into the war</u></em>
Explanation:
During this time, the British wanted no part of the First world war.
Germany couldn't breach the French Maginot line. So if going through, under, or over wasn't effective, why not go around it? This operation was called the Schlieffen Plan. This was pretty much attacking Belgium and going through Belgium to France.
Britain was allies with Belgium and didn't really like their allies being curve stomped by German troops.
(Simplified)
The most important idea that should be embraced for more effective government under the Articles of Confederation, is the national government cannot be weak.
<u>Explanation:</u>
The major cause for the Articles of Confederation to be ineffective was the federal government, was too weak to enforce the laws and they had no power to impose taxes. They allowed state governments to levy taxes.
For its expenses, the national government had to request money from the states resulted in major disputes within the states , laying taxes and the national government is restricted to interfere in those issues as major powers were with state governments.
It required all escaped slaves to return to their masters and that any free states had to cooperate with this law.
