Answer:

<h2>The Soviet army looked ineffective as casualties mounted. </h2>

Explanation:

It's true that the United States funneled military funding for weapons to the mujahideen, but that was typical for a Cold War conflict.  The significant reality that contributed to the collapse of communism in the Soviet Union was the fact that the mighty Soviet military machine no longer looked so mighty.  The Afghan resistance to Soviet-sponsored communism could not be overcome by the Soviet troops.  During the course of the decade-long conflict (from December 1979 until February 1989), approximately 15,000 Soviet soldiers were killed and another 35,000 wounded.

<em>The Washington Post</em> reported in 1988, after the USSR had been struggling in its war with the Afghans for nearly a decade: "Afghanistan is Russia's Vietnam -- possibly with even greater consequences for the Soviet Union."

explain what the union navy and army did to maintain or make progress on steps 1 and 2 of the anaconda plan from 1862 to 1863
Andrej [43]
Step 1 of the Anaconda plan was to completely blockade all ports that were in any way related to the southern territories. They wanted to prevent them from getting help from outsider countries such as European countries which were willing to help the Southerners at the time. By blocking all ports, they would prevent them from ever leaving the territory. This step was conducted by the Navy.

Step 2 was about cutting it off from help from the Americas. It was about a continental blockade where the southerners would be surrounded from all sides, from Northern states in the north, to northern blockades in the East and West. They would occupy and block things like railroads or similar roads and would prevent anything from getting in or going out of the territory.<span />

How is the naturalization process fair
ollegr [7]
Naturalization is the process that if you provide all the paper work needed you can become a legal U.S. citizen and vote under law federally. The process is fair because there are many steps before hand that allow other citizens to have temporary citizenship or permanent citizenship with limitations, such as a visa or a green card.
