To build a sod house, you needed the right kind of grass — grass that had densely packed roots that would hold the soil together. So, Nebraska settlers would search for fields of buffalo grass, little blue stem, wire grass, prairie cord grass, Indian grass, and wheat grass. The next task was to cut the sod into bricks.

What statement displays the significance of the Battle of Midway?
charle [14.2K]

The correct answer is A, as the Battle of Midway is considered a turning point in WWII, when US destroyed 4 Japanese aircraft carriers while losing just one US carrier.

The Battle of Midway was a naval battle between the Japanese and the American Navy at the Midway Islands in the Second World War. The battle was induced by Japan and lasted from June 4 to June 1942. It took place six months after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, which led to a state of war between Japan and the United States, and about a month after the Battle of the Coral Sea. The Battle of Midway resulted in the US forces rejecting the attack and destroying 4 Japanese aircraft carriers and a heavy cross against their own loss of an aircraft carrier and a destroyer.

What was the most important way that the USA at the end of 1945 was different from the USA in 1939?
ycow [4]

Answer:

The USA were more so ideologically driven by 1945.

Explanation:

In 1939, the USA and USSR, alongside other powers (ie. Great Britain), were united against a common enemy: Adolf Hitler. This incentivised all countries to put their differences aside and unite against Hitler, in order to end the rule of one of the largest threats of the 20th century. Thus, in 1939, the USA were largely cooperative and cordial.

By 1945, once Hitler and the Nazis’ rule was over, albeit the USA attempted to keep strong ties with countries such as the USSR (seen with US President Roosevelt’s friendship with USSR leader Joseph Stalin), ultimately, USA’s next steps were becoming increasingly dependent on the USA’s ideological differences to that of the USSR, bearing in mind the USA were capitalist and the USSR were communist/ Marxist- Leninist. This is evidenced with Truman (Roosevelt’s successor as US President)’s approach to the USSR at the Potsdam conference from the 17th July- 2nd August 1945.

Hope this helps! :)
