Slaves who were captured after attempting to escape usually faced very severe punishments. Why do you think many slaves were wil
ELEN [110]
The life of a slave was often as unbearable as a life can be. They could not be sure they will not be killed at any instant, without a warning, or tortured, or even forced to torture others. 

Some slaves probably favoured death to their fate, and felt that even a slight chance at improvement was worth the risk. Perhaps they hoped they would be either killed or freed, and not tortured, and perhaps they would be tortured anyway by their cruel masters, In a way, for many escape was they only option that offered any sort of hope for a bearable life for them.

Murljashka [212]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached or further references we can say the following.

One way in which policies to maintain global influence in the United States were similar to the policies to maintain global influence in the Soviet Union during the Cold War was that the United States tries to protect its economic and political interest in other regions of the world, as for example, in the case of the Middle East.

During the Cold War, the Soviet Union spread communism over many regions of the world, basically in Eastern Europe and its satellite countries such as Poland Czechoslovakia, East Germany, Bulgaria, Albania, and Romania.

I n a similar way, the United States has a strong influence in different parts of the world, such as in the Persian Gulf and the Arab nations, due basically to oil deposits.
