kirill115 [55]

The correct answer is "they were rapidly growing in size and technologies as exemplified by the dreadnought "arms race."

The statement that best describes the British and German militaries in 1913 is "they were rapidly growing in size and technologies as exemplified by the dreadnought "arms race."

During the last decade of the 1800s and the beginning of the 1900s, Germany and Great Britain competed hand to hand in the military, complicating, even more, the already deteriorated relationships between the two European nations.

German Admiral Alfred von Tirpitz started to plan to build a better navy with the German industrial capacity already installed in the country. So we could say this was a fierce competition between the two.

What inference can you make about Japanese attitudes toward Korean culture in the late 1500s?
mariarad [96]

We can infer that Japanese wanted to learn and absorb korean technologies to develop art, infrastructure and transmission of knowledge.

Japanese leader Toyotomi Hideyoshi invaded Korea between 1592 and 1598, the invasion resulted in Japan losing the war, but Hideyoshi and his generals took advantage during this period because it was the opportunity to kidnap skilled Korean craftsmen and take them back to Japan.

Japan gained cultural benefits from the spoils of war, also due to the contact with Ming China.

Korea had a refined technology of moveable type printing, during the late-sixteenth century, Japan benefited from this.

Before 1590, there was a monastic monopoly on printing in Japan.

Japanese invasion of Korea is sometimes referred to as the "Teabowl War" or the "Pottery War", because japanese soldiers made great efforts to find skilled Korean potters and transfer them to Japan once quality ceramic pottery was prized in Japan, particularly the Korean teabowls used in the Japanese tea ceremony.

Korea also made  important contributions to tiling Japanese houses and castles, among the skilled craftsmen removed from Korea by Japanese forces were roof tilers . The  Nagoya Castle was constructed using Korean stonework techniques.
