The military plans laid before World War I presupposed a major war between the countries which were tied together with alliances.  Because the Triple Entente had Britain, France and Russia as allies, Germany thought if a war began it would need to fight on two fronts -- west and east.  So German Field Marshall Alfred von Schlieffen drew up war plans that said attack France first, quickly, and then hold that territory while deploying forces to contend with Russia in the east.   

When the Austrian Archduke Franz Ferdinand was assassinated in 1914, Austria threatened Serbia with war.  Russia supported its junior ally, Serbia, and began to mobilize troops.  Germany demanded Russia stop its troop mobilization, but the Russian military was ready and eager to go to battle.  So declared war on Russia, and in doing so, the first thing it did was to go and attack France.  Thus the war spread and became instantly a more global conflict.  All the military preparations and battle planning made the outbreak of the war like a series of dominoes falling, as the countries of Europe fell into war with one another.

8) Which person is CORRECTLY matched with his invention or discovery?
Reika [66]
8. I believe the answer is A, Vladimir Lenin. He is the father of communism. He was the founder of the Russian communist party, leader of the Bolshevik Revolution in 1917, and the architect, builder and the first head of the soviet Union. He served as the head of government of soviet Russia from 1917 to 1924, and of the soviet union from 1922 to 1924.

9. I believe the answer is C, It prohibited slavery in most of the former Louisiana Territory except for Missouri. In 1820 the congress passed a bill granting Missouri statehood as a slave trade state under the condition that slavery was to be forever prohibited in the rest of the Louisiana Purchase north of the 36th parallel.

What were the major differences between the Federalists and the Democratic Republicans?
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

The Federalists believed that American foreign policy should favor British interests, while the Democratic-Republicans wanted to strengthen ties with the French. The Democratic-Republicans supported the government that had taken over France after the revolution of 1789.

 Examples: Hamilton & Jefferson

Hamilton and the Federalists wanted a strong central government, run by well-educated property owners. Jefferson and the Democratic-Republicans wanted most power to stay with the states and wanted the farmers and the 'common man' to run the nation.
