6 0

Starting from the half of the 20th century, American enterprises started moving a series of their operations overseas int he search for gaining a competitive edge over their competitors. Cost reduction in the form of transport and labor costs was the main factor behind the moving of businesses overseas.

However, the political and economic environment of numerous countries in the world where these companies operate is complicated, as sudden government changes can bring the economy downwards or upwards. Another important factor is the guarantee of security of these businesses. The control of these businesses by governments or sudden attacks by locals are commons events that have happened throughout history. This is why it is important for the Department of State to constantly monitor US enterprises overseas in order to guarantee the protection of their interests.

Now, I'm not two sure on the last one but the Hundred Years War was where King Edward the III of England thought that he should be the king of France, so there was a very long battle between the two. I would say the Hundred Years War would be started by division of the heir to the throne of England, and France and Italy did not agree who was to be pope.

deff fn [24]

Answer: William Jennings Bryan

Explanation:

William Jennings Bryan was a Nebraska politician who was nominated by his party, the Democratic party, to be their Presidential nominee in 1896 after he gave a rousing speech which today is known as the Cross of Gold speech in support of the bimetal/silver standard.

The standard called for the use of both gold and silver to back the American dollar as opposed to using just gold and was strongly supported by the lower and some middle class. The standard however would have brought high inflation as well as making it harder for the US to trade with other countries.

William Jennings lost the election and the US continued with the gold standard.
