Hello There!

Your answer would be "<u>because he believed that the Soviet Union wouldn't risk war by expanding communism</u>"

Your key word in the question would be containment. Containment means to keep something that is harmful under control. George made this a policy towards the Soviet Union. The reason why he believed that containment was the best response to the expansion is because the Soviets were trying to expand their communism through out Europe, but the United States didn't want to let that happen, so they controlled the expansion of the Soviet union that is spreading throughout Europe, so other countries do not get influenced by communism. This policy was known for being used in the Cold War. Communism was dangerous during their time. If an economy lacks the amount of strength to be a strong economy, then they would easily take communism into their economy, since it is the only option for them to keep their economy functioning.

George F. Kennan's goal was to make sure that the economies in Europe were strong enough to stand up for themselves, without having other countries help them stay strong. Communism would destroy economies and make them weaker, to the point where they would need to depend on another country to help them (Soviet Union).

Since the Soviets did not want to get into war with the United States, they stopped expanding their communism through out Europe. If they did not stop expanding their communism through out Europe, then they would've went to a brutal war with the U.S.

Is sparse living accommodations a characteristic of Athens, Sparta, or both?
morpeh [17]

Answer: B -  Sparta

Explanation:

Houses in the life of the ancient Greeks never occupied a special place. The house was primarily a place where the Greeks slept, so in that context, not much was invested in the luxury.

The Greeks spent most of their time outside, in the markets, at farms, so they returned home in the evening to sleep. The private dwellings of the ancient Greeks were very modest.

A good newspaper article describes the scene of an event. Read this description of the scene of one of the debates. Use the info
BlackZzzverrR [31]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although the question is incomplete because it did not say what kind of debate, the place, the date, and the scene or the debate, we can say that when journalists report debates in the newspaper, they have to elaborate a specific description, chronologically, maybe, of the way congressmen debated.

A typical scene of debate includes Congressmen of the two parties discussing and even arguing their proposals, trying to defend their ideas in order to win the debate. Sometimes the debate gets heated and it becomes something personal, although that is not professional.

What was the goal of having most of the CCC employees' money sent to their homes?
DIA [1.3K]

Correct answer choice is :

B) To put more money into the economy through the families

Explanation:

The CCC, also known as Roosevelt's Tree Army, was recognized with rebuilding the nation's decimated woodlands by starting an expected three billion trees from 1933 to 1942. This was critical, particularly in nations concerned by the Dust Bowl, where reforestation was required to cut the respiration, maintain rainwater in the soil, and hold the soil in position. So far-reaching was the CCC's reforestation plan that it was bound for more than half the reforestation, state, and individual, perform in the nation's records.
