Answer:

As historian Alan Taylor recounts, of the first 104 colonists who landed in April 1607, only thirty-eight survived the winter. Of the 10,000 who left England for Jamestown in its first fifteen years, only twenty percent were still alive, and still in Jamestown, in 1622.

Explanation:

The winter of 1609–10, commonly known as the Starving Time, took a heavy toll. Of the 500 colonists living in Jamestown in the autumn, fewer than one-fifth were still alive by March 1610. Sixty were still in Jamestown; another 37, more fortunate, had escaped by ship.

Anna11 [10]

The Correct answer is the doctrine of Containment. Indeed, Stalin’s Soviet Union had engaged in a series o Geo-political moves to assert and/or increase its influence and spread Stalinist-styled Communism in Eastern Europe, Asia, the Caribbean, Africa and the Americas.

Truman wanted to politically and economically weaken the Soviet Union by keeping it from expanding its influence and sociopolitical model worldwide. His first move was to provide $400 US million to combat Communism in Greece and Turkey where their popularity kept spreading. Then there was the proxy war of Korea where a US-led coalition fought Soviet-led forces including hundreds of thousands of Chinese “volunteers”.

Part of the strategy was also to engage in an arm’s race with the Soviet Union that included the manufacture of thousands of nuclear weapons. However, one of the major paradoxes of the Cold War was the extensive development of nuclear weapons and the reluctance to actually use them in order to avoid mutually assured destruction.

More trust and empathy since they were willing to give their lives for their country, when all they found when they returned was segregation and bullying from people who stayed at home comfortable when the African Americans that had fought, fought for their life in the battle grounds and the White Americans wouldn’t even thank them for their service.
