History

Answer: C. creating a buffer against Western influence.

The main purpose of the Japanese imperial expansion was the desire to create a buffer against Western influence. Japan felt that the West and their imperialist plans were likely to continue to spread. Instead of waiting for these countries to overtake them, Japan wanted to develop its capabilities and engage in imperialism themselves. In order to fulfill this goal, they greatly developed their military. They also engaged in intense modernization and industrialization.

<em><u>Creating a buffer zone against Western influence was the argument given for Japanese imperial expansion. </u></em>

Further Explanations:

Japanese imperial was the act of expansion of the Japanese  to expand its influence in the Pacific fleet and eradicate the influence of western nations. The expansion in Eastern Asia started with the attack of Manchuria in 1931 and ended with a brutal attack on China in 1937. Japanese imperial army successfully occupied Japan, Korea, Hong Kong, and Taiwan during heir expansion.  

To fulfill their desire they conspired against the United States and attacked Pearl Harbour on 7th December 1941. They thought that continuous attacks on the United States weaken its strength which will directly reduce its influence in the Pacific fleet. The main intent of the attack of Pearl Harbour was to prevent American intervention in its annexation of Dutch East Indies and Malaya. The annexation would also help the Japanese to continue its further annexation towards Southeast Asia. During the “Second World War”, it too allied with Germany and Italy to fight against America.

Who had the power to accuse and convict people of witchcraft in Salem? How do you think this power affected them? Describe a tim
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

The infamous Salem witch trials began during the spring of 1692, after a group of young girls in Salem Village, Massachusetts, claimed to be possessed by the devil and accused several local women of witchcraft. As a wave of hysteria spread throughout colonial Massachusetts, a special court convened in Salem to hear the cases; the first convicted witch, Bridget Bishop, was hanged that June. Eighteen others followed Bishop to Salem’s Gallows Hill, while some 150 more men, women and children were accused over the next several months. By September 1692, the hysteria had begun to abate and public opinion turned against the trials. Though the Massachusetts General Court later annulled guilty verdicts against accused witches and granted indemnities to their families, bitterness lingered in the community, and the painful legacy of the Salem witch trials would endure for centuries.

Context & Origins of the Salem Witch Trials

Did you know? In an effort to explain by scientific means the strange afflictions suffered by those "bewitched" Salem residents in 1692, a study published in Science magazine in 1976 cited the fungus ergot (found in rye, wheat and other cereals), which toxicologists say can cause symptoms such as delusions, vomiting and muscle spasms.

In January 1692, 9-year-old Elizabeth (Betty) Parris and 11-year-old Abigail Williams (the daughter and niece of Samuel Parris, minister of Salem Village) began having fits, including violent contortions and uncontrollable outbursts of screaming. After a local doctor, William Griggs, diagnosed bewitchment, other young girls in the community began to exhibit similar symptoms, including Ann Putnam Jr., Mercy Lewis, Elizabeth Hubbard, Mary Walcott and Mary Warren. In late February, arrest warrants were issued for the Parris’ Caribbean slave, Tituba, along with two other women–the homeless beggar Sarah Good and the poor, elderly Sarah Osborn–whom the girls accused of bewitching them.

Salem Witch Trials: The Hysteria Spreads

The three accused witches were brought before the magistrates Jonathan Corwin and John Hathorne and questioned, even as their accusers appeared in the courtroom in a grand display of spasms, contortions, screaming and writhing. Though Good and Osborn denied their guilt, Tituba confessed. Likely seeking to save herself from certain conviction by acting as an informer, she claimed there were other witches acting alongside her in service of the devil against the Puritans. As hysteria spread through the community and beyond into the rest of Massachusetts, a number of others were accused, including Martha Corey and Rebecca Nurse–both regarded as upstanding members of church and community–and the four-year-old daughter of Sarah Good

Though the respected minister Cotton Mather had warned of the dubious value of spectral evidence (or testimony about dreams and visions), his concerns went largely unheeded during the Salem witch trials. Increase Mather, president of Harvard College (and Cotton’s father) later joined his son in urging that the standards of evidence for witchcraft must be equal to those for any other crime, concluding that “It would better that ten suspected witches may escape than one innocent person be condemned.” Amid waning public support for the trials, Governor Phips dissolved the Court of Oyer and Terminer in October and mandated that its successor disregard spectral evidence. Trials continued with dwindling intensity until early 1693, and by that May Phips had pardoned and released all those in prison on witchcraft charges.

In January 1697, the Massachusetts General Court declared a day of fasting for the tragedy of the Salem witch trials; the court later deemed the trials unlawful, and the leading justice Samuel Sewall publicly apologized for his role in the process. The damage to the community lingered, however, even after Massachusetts Colony passed legislation restoring the good names of the condemned and providing financial restitution to their heirs in 1711. Indeed, the vivid and painful legacy of the Salem witch trials endured well into the 20th century, when Arthur Miller dramatized the events of 1692 in his play “The Crucible” (1953), using them as an allegory for the anti-Communist “witch hunts” led by Senator Joseph McCarthy in the 1950s.
