1. why were east germans in a worse financial position than west germans? (1 point)
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:  The East German communist command economy limited economic prosperity

Explanation:  East Germany was part of the Soviet interest zone after the Second World War. Like all other countries with imposed communist regimes, the economy is strictly governed by the government, that is the command economy. In an economy where there is no free market, all economic parameters are determined by the government, and so is the case of East Germany. Although Berlin was completely destroyed at the end of WWII, West Berlin, which was part of the Western Allied Zone, advanced much faster than East Berlin.

did the korean war serve any purpose? was part or all of it just a mistake? what were the "results"? how much responsibility sho
Studentka2010 [4]

The Korean war had a purpose but it had largely failed.

Explanation:

Truman can and cannot be blamed for the war as he had formulated this policy of attacking in per preemptive measures to control the spread of communism that had plagued the US for so long.

At the same time the nature of the policy was such that it has led to the development of the US in certain senses.

So, as all things in history it is a two way thing and often based around the perspective one has of things.

The war itself was not a success in terms of containing communism as North Korea was out of grasp.
