Answer: the West as a civilization (elites the West) felt threatened by communism a long time before WW II started. When Bolshevik revolution took place (1917) international communist started expanding all over the world. World-wide population was seized by the image of final apocalyptic conflict betwen bourgeoisie (Christian values, western traditions, capitalism) and barbarian Commmunism. All that was based on Marx´s "scientific" prophecy of apocalyptic conflict between two irreconciliable forces of decadent bourgeoisie and progressive proletariat. Mutual animosity existed (even though only theoretical because worldwide Communist revolution never ocurred) also during WW II. The conflict was there. GB and USA collaborated with USSR militarily and politically but it does not mean they adopted Communism or became permissive towards it. After the WW II what we call "division of power" took place ....USSR required its part in international policy and had its geopolitical and ideological influence (USA and GB and all the West accepted that....they had to because after the WW II USSR became extremely popular). Soviet ambitions in world politics were natural....course of event seemed to confirm Communist "scientific" historiography and the thesis that history sides with USSR.

Explanation: USSR profited from Communist revolution (1917) and its role in WW II especially in 1950s. But situation started to change in 1953 (Stalin´s death and condemnation of its policy by Khruchev), in 1956 (anti-soviet uprising in Hungary) and in 1968 (Prague Spring in Czechoslovakia). Immediately after 1945 USSR was extremely popular (in Europe, in Latin America as well, Africans were inspired by Russians in their fight for independence and decolonization).

Answer:

The alliance between the United States and the Soviet Union started to fade before the end of the Second World War. When the conflict ended, the Red Army occupied Eastern Europe, Western Europe was in ruins, and there was a threat of Russian domination on the whole continent looming. The Marshall Plan helped rebuild Western Europe, but American apprehension and distrust of Soviet intentions remained high. Other events that contributed to the beginning of the Cold War were the Communist coup in Czechoslovakia and the Soviet blockade of Berlin in 1948, the fall of China in Communist hands in 1949, the Soviet atomic bomb of 1949, and Soviet support for North Korea´s invasion of its neighbor South Korea in 1950.

What required the colonies to trade only with england?
Marta_Voda [28]

The nascent British Empire followed a mercantilist economic policy, in which the goal was to enrich Britain, especially its already powerful bourgeoisie that exercised power since the Glorious Revolution. This policy was viewed with suspicion by the settlers because it directly harmed them by considering the colonies as mere producers of raw materials and markets for the productions of the metropolis.

The first reaction of American producers and merchants was smuggling, which became the most widespread tactic to avoid restrictions on trade with the French, Spanish or Dutch. Mercantilism aimed to achieve trade surpluses, so that gold and silver would be concentrated in London, the colonies, on the other hand, were captive markets for British industry. The government participated through the rights and taxes, and the rest went to the English merchants. The category of public administration that benefited most was the military, especially the British Navy.

timurjin [86]

Answer:

The Habsburg empire

Explanation:

Before the first world war the Habsburg empire encompassed not just Austria and Hungary, but Bohemia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Croatia and large parts of Poland and Romania.

On the 28 June 1914 the Archduke Ferdinand of Habsburg was killed in Sarajevo; this led to the first world war in which the Habsburg empire lost its enormous empire. After the war new and less diversed<em> nations</em> were created from the old empire such as Austria, Hungary, Czechoslovakia and Yugoslavia. The latter proved to be too etnically diversed too. Austria and Hungary, although with a Romanian minority inside and a Hungarian minority in Romania, proved to be more stable.
