In paragraph of at least five sentences, summarize President Truman’s perspective on using an atomic bomb as a weapon of war aga

Furkat [3]

President Truman had a very difficult decision to make in terms of dropping the atomic bomb. Before dropping the bomb, Truman was hoping to get an unconditional surrender from Japan after the demands made at the Potsdam Conference. However, Japan refused.

Instead of dropping the atomic bomb, he also considered an invasion of mainland Japan. However, this invasion was estimated to have millions of casualties total and would have resulted in the deaths of thousands of Allied forces and Japanese military personnel.

Ultimately Truman decides to drop bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, effectively ending World War II. Even though this was a weapon of massive destruction, he argued that this actually saved lives. He used the estimated number of deaths/casualties from the possible land invasion to justify his decision.

The encomienda and slavery systems both contributed to which of the following developments

vivado [14]

Answer:

The Spanish propagated a caste system which was dependent on racial origins.

This system determined the social ranking of Europeans, Native Americans, Africans, and people of mixed race in their colonies.

Explanation:

Recall that a caste system is one where ones social standing is determined at birth. In the case of the Spaniards, given that they had interbred with Europeans, Native Americans and Africans, the generation resulting from such interbreeding were categorised socially according to how much close genetically they were to the Spaniards. In other words, the more Spanish one was the higher one's class was in the society.

I need help. Where did the Colonists want representation in

Dennis_Churaev [7]

The American colonists might have agreed, but they wanted to have a say in the decision. They wanted the right to vote about their own taxes, like the people living in Britain. But no colonists were permitted to serve in the British Parliament. So they protested that they were being taxed without being represented.
