History

The correct answer is A. The Department of Defense was created to place the US Army and Navy in one executive department.

The United States Department of Defense is a department of the executive branch of the federal government of the United States in charge of coordinating and supervising all government agencies and functions directly related to national security and the United States Armed Forces.

Following the aftermath of World War II, President Harry Truman proposed the creation of a unified department of national defense. In a special message to Congress on December 19, 1945, the President cited both inter-departmental conflicts and excessive spending on military matters. The deliberations in Congress lasted for months, focusing largely on the role of the military in society and the threat of giving too much military power to the executive branch.

What was the outcome of these tariff debates, and why was it that few were pleased with these results?
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]
<span>The Tariff debates resulted in the South being displeased (as explained in the last question), and also resulted in the British threatening to end cotton trade with the US due to the high rates for the Cotton, and less revenue because of lessened trade with Britain. The rates had rose because of the tariffs. Few were pleased in the south because they had less revenue (due to lessened trade with Britain), but higher rates on to purchase things not made in the South. To lessen tensions with the South because of the tariffs, the tariff of 1832 called for the gradual reduction of rates, But this wasn't enough for South Carolina, who nullified the two tariffs.</span><span />
