Hello!

Churchill believes that an invasion of British soil is not likely to occur in the near future because the enemy would have to cross the heavily guarded sea to get there. 

In his famous speech, "Their finest hour", given on 1940, Churchill said that for the Germans to cross the English Channel, they would need to have a large armada, that would be "intercepted long before it reaches the coast". There would be many obstacles in the way of an invading Navy, such as minefields, air bombings and the British Navy itself.  

Have a nice day!

Which debate almost prevented the Treaty of Paris from being ratified?
sweet-ann [11.9K]

<u>Answer:</u>

The debate about granting the Philippines independence almost prevented the Treaty of Paris from being ratified.

<u>Explanation: </u>

  • Amidst the engagements being carried out for the accomplishment of the 'Treaty of Paris', the Congress was deliberately discussing over the issue of granting the Philippines independence.
  • There was a hot debate going on as the 'Treaty of Paris' included certain clauses that pertained to the US government paying $20 million to Spain for ceding the Philippines to US.
  • If the United States would have paid Spain the predetermined amount of compensation, granting 'independence to the Philippines' would have become more difficult.

BaLLatris [955]
This is what I found
The Nile River carries gold all throughout. Much of Ancient Egypt's gold was sourced from this massive river. The two significant sources of Egyptian gold was found in a place called Nubia toward the South and in the Eastern deserts. Much of this is now part of present-day Sudan.
