Answer:

E) the superiority of the Portuguese navy over English and Dutch forces.

Explanation:

In the early 16th century, two countries of Europe had ventured far away to try to find new trade routes to India and Asia: Spain and Portugal. Without knowing it, Spain had discovered for Europe a new continent, and Portuguese sailors managed to circumnavigate Africa. English and Dutch maritime expeditions with trade purposes took place at a later time.

Why did the japanese attack pearl harbor and how successful was the attack?
prisoha [69]

Answer:

Japan moved to attack the US Navy Pacific Fleet at Pearl Harbor under the premise that war with the United States was inevitable, they wanted to strike first, to deliver a fatal blow to the American Navy that would impede the US from interfering in their conquests and military operations in Southeast Asia. A declaration of war was drafted,  but due to delays it was delivered to the US after the attack had started on December 7, 1941.  The Japanese planes inflicted terrible damage on the fleet in Hawaii, sunk several important vessels, damaged others, destroyed a hig number of aircraft and killed thousands of sailors. Nevertheless, the attack was not a full success because that day, the American carriers were not anchored at the base in Pearl Harbor, so the operation failed to achieve one of its main goals: to destroy American naval strategic capacity; the era of the aircraft carriers as the main assets of naval power had begun.

Why Were African Americans fighting a double war during WWII, One against Germany and Japan, and one against segregation at home
Volgvan

Answer:

Because at the time, the American army was still segregated, and African Americans were discriminated in the army, even if they provided the same service for the country during the war against Germany and Japan.

Fortunately for African Americans, the army was desegregated after the war, and in the following decades, the Civil Rights Movement would lead to desegregation in most public and private places across the country, especially in the South.
