Answer:

C: The telegraph.

Explanation:

The reason is simple. The Pony Express was, at the time, our equivalent of the U.S Postal Service. When telegraphs came to be, suddenly two people from accross the world could speak to each other in seconds. Whereas the Pony Express took a lot of time to get from just one city to the next.

Why did truman decide to use the atomic bomb against japan? do you think he did the right thing?
Cloud [144]
He used the atomic bomb against Japan because they were one of the world's major powers. They quickly industrialized and imperalized countries bigger than their own but USA didn't have that kind of firepower but we had bombs to drop with huge explosive power and Japan wasn't ready for that. Think to yourself and say what if Japan imperalized my country were or who would I be now

How did the British Secret Service influence FDR? American methods of communication with the Allies?
attashe74 [19]

MI6 was eclipsed in terms of intelligence by other initiatives. These were, in general terms:

The massive cryptology effort undertaken by the government and the cryptography school (CS), which was the office responsible for the interception and decryption of foreign communications based at Bletchley Park.

The extensive operation of the "deception" system of MI5 to give misleading information to the Germans.

The work of the photographic unit of recognition. The operation of MI6 was also affected by highly questionable decisions regarding operations, with an increase in risk situations for its own agents. MI6's most famous operation during the war was precisely a failure, known as the Venlo Incident (the Dutch city where it happened), where MI6 was tricked by agents of the German secret service, the Abwehr, who introduced themselves as army officers involved in a plot against Hitler.

In a series of meetings between the MI6 agents and the supposed conspirators, the plans of the German counterintelligence, in the hands of the SS, were to kidnap the MI6 negotiators, but they did not have the expected success due to the presence of the Dutch police, but in a meeting without the presence of the police, two MI6 agents were kidnapped by the SS. This great mistake significantly discredited the reputation of MI6. During the Second World War, the primitive SIS was nominally transformed into "MI6" when, under reorganization of military intelligence, the SIS became Section VI of Military Intelligence (Military Intelligence).

Despite the difficulties at the beginning of the war, MI6 recovered and developed important operations in occupied Europe and in the Far East and Far East where it operated under the name of "interservice deck cover department" (ISLD) . One of the main functions of MI6 during the war was to control the wireless communications systems and Ultra its great success to decipher the Enigma code used by the German Navy. (GC & CS).

Reflect on why Rizal highlighted the Story of the Moth in the last chapter of his Memorias. What was the message intended by Riz
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

1. The intended message was intended to alert the dangers of the obsession. This is because when we become obsessed with something we tend to ignore everything around us and act in an unreasonable and very dangerous way, which can cause us a lot of harm.

2. The moral of the story applies in today's society because we are increasingly obsessed with aesthetics, celebrities, erroneous politics, extremism, among other things.

3. The light symbolizes the danger disguised as something beautiful and attractive, but which is fatal.

Explanation:

The story told by Rizal is about a moth that becomes obsessed and attracted by the lit light of a lamp. The moth's obsession is so strong that he gets closer and closer to the lamp, ignoring all the advice for her to stay away. This ends up burning her wings and causing death. The moral of the story is that we must not let our obsession control our rationality and we must always reason whether what attracts us is really good for us.
