Answer:
The German nightmare was a war on two fronts. Historically, Russia needed time to ‘mobilize’, that is, to call up reservists, equip them, and assign them to their regiments and platoons. So the logical way of operating was to attack and defeat the French first, before attacking the Russians. But in 1914 the Russians cheated; they mobilised before they announced it so their army was in the field quite a long time before the Germans expected it — and the dreaded war on two fronts materialised. The Germans were lucky in that their effective commander Ludendorff (who was technically 2ic) moved his troops about by train, so they were not already exhausted by a long and hurried march and were able to throw the Russians back into complete confusion and surrender.
So the Russians were defeated but not mortally injured, the French came close to defeat but just managed to stabilise a front, and the ‘despicable English Army’ saved itself from disaster by the narrowest Of margins.
Four years of continuous bloody slaughter were assured.

The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Here we have just a statement. There is no question. However, doing some research we can say that the correct question would be this: <em>"What pieces of evidence would best support the author's conclusion?"</em>
If that is the case, then the correct answer is the following.
The evidence would be the way the Articles of Confederation created a week central government that basically, only had the power to control the post office and deal with Native American Issues. It was the states the ones that were sovereign and could collect money through taxation. So if the Central government needed money, it had to ask the states for it.
That original statement was written by Edmund S. Morgan, in "The Birth of the Republic."
