Soviet satellites formed in the eastern bloc. True or False

History
1 answer:
oee [108]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

<h2>True</h2>

Explanation:

Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia, East Germany, Hungary, Poland, and Romania were the Soviet satellite states that formed in the Eastern bloc of Europe.  Those nations were part of the  Warsaw Pact, signed along with the Soviet Union in 1955.  The name of that pact stems from the facts that the agreement was signed in Warsaw, Poland.  Albania also was an original signer of the Warsaw Pact, but split its relationship with the Soviet Union some years later.

Prior to the end of World War II, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill and US President Franklin Roosevelt pushed strongly for Soviet leader Josef Stalin to allow free elections to take place in the nations of Europe after the war.  Stalin had stated agreement with his fellow Allied leaders. But after the war ended, Stalin and the Soviets never did allow those free elections to occur. The Soviets felt they needed the Eastern European nations as satellites to protect their own interests.   A line of countries in Eastern Europe came into line with the USSR and communism -- thus called "satellites."

In the novel, Nectar in a Sieve, water is symbolic of _____.
astraxan [27]

In the novel Nectar in a Sieve by Kamala Markandaya, water is a symbol that moves and ends all other symbols. Water through the rain affects the yields of the rice, also, it can come in the form of monsoon to come unexpectedly and also to go, and never can say with certainty when the rain will come and go on a daily basis. Water as a symbol fits perfectly into the type of Hindu religion, which has cyclicality, a circular flow between life and death. The water is present when Nathan dies, the rain that floods the flames on the temple, reminds that no force can resist inevitable death. Also, water is compared with a woman, if nature is dry, it is like a infertile  woman, if too immoral is used, then nature is too "mature", so water must be used moderately, or there are dangerous consequences. The relationship between woman and water is also given through the river, it gives life in a moderate form, because the fields are more fertile and have a high yield, but also take life in unhealthy spills and floods. So water can mean an ascent or a fall if it is not used moderately, too much or too little use is not good. Thus, water symbolizes fertility or infertility, life or death, just as the point of the Hindu religion is the circulation of life and death.

How did America enter World War 2​
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

This a very interesting and general question.

Explanation:

The US officially entered World War 2 on December 11, 1941. Mobilization began when the United States declared war on Japan on December 8, 1941, one day after the attacks on Pearl Harbor.  

This move caused Germany, an ally of Japan at the time, to declare war on the United States on December 11th, sucking the US into the European Theater of this global conflict, and taking the US, in just four short days, from a peacetime nation to one that was preparing for all-out war with two enemies on opposite sides of the globe.

Although formal declarations of war did not come until 1941, one could argue that the US had been involved in WWII for some time already, since 1939, despite the country’s self-proclaimed neutrality. It had played a role by supplying Germany’s opponents — which, by 1940, after the Fall of France to Hitler and Nazi Germany, included pretty much only Great Britain — with supplies for the war effort.
