Answer:

Athens was not justified in using the money and resources of the league to build its navy and attack other city-states; the reason why Athens was not justified was because it (Athens) was also a member of the body of Greek city-states—known as the Delian League—which had a lot of successes over the Persians. On the other hand, the members of the league can be blamed for their situation because they opted to leave the Delian League which was powerful because of the navy that was controlled by Athens; the decision of the city-states to leave the League, prompted Athens to forcefully subdue and control the city-states/members of the League.

Answer:

According to Thucydides history, Athens was not justified to use the resources of the league in that way.

Reason because Athens forced the league to continue paying, and used the money to build its navy.

Explanation:

Thucydides account of Peloponnesian war(431 - 404BC) described how the Delian League navy crushed the Persian navy. Some of the Delian league members thought the threat by Persia was gone, and the league was no longer necessary. Some of the islands in the Aegean wanted to leave the league, they no longer wanted to pay money and provide ships. Athens stepped in and did not permit these Greeks to leave the league. Athens treated these city-states harshly by tearing down their walls, taking their fleet of ships, and insisting they continue to pay the league taxes. Apparently It was easy to join the Delian League, but impossible to back out, and the league was beginning to look more like an Athenian empire. Athens forced the league to pay, but used the money to build a navy and becoming hostile to the league.

City in which as many as 120,000 people were killed by an atomic bomb
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

B. Hiroshima

Explanation:

Hiroshima is the Japanese city where around 120,000 people were killed by an atomic bomb.

The United States detonated this bomb during WWII, which led to the end of the war.

Appeasement and the Holocaust were also during WWII, however, they do not fit the description in the questions. Appeasement was a political/war tactic, and the Holocaust was a long term event.

So, the correct answer is B. Hiroshima

Explain the connection between containment of communism and the interstate highway act.
aleksley [76]
Cold War concerns about the containment of communism were a priority for President Dwight Eisenhower, who had been a prominent military general before becoming president.  His concerns for increasing and strengthening America's national security gave impetus to the plan to create an interstate highway system.

Eisenhower, the former general, had seen how Germany's Autobahn system of highways had been an asset to their strength.  He came to see highways as an important part of our country's national defense.  When Eisenhower gave a speech to Congress in 1955, to promote the building of a federal highway system, he listed safety on the roads and economic advantages as strong reasons for the huge project. But he also listed a national security reason, saying:  "In case of an atomic attack on our key cities, the road net must permit quick evacuation of target areas, mobilization of defense forces and maintenance of every essential economic function. But the present system in critical areas would be the breeder of a deadly congestion within hours of an attack" (Special Message to the Congress Regarding a National Highway Program, <span>February 22, 1955).
