Answer:
Explanation:
Because Johnson was thinking in terms of conventional warfare. He thought that because his army was larger, his air force was tougher and better trained, his navy was massively larger, the equipment provided to his troops infinitely better, there would be no contest.
He did not understand 2 things about Vietnam.
1. He forgot that the Vietnamese had been fighting the French (and beating them). The French in effect had changed the Vietnamese into battle hardened soldiers.
2. The Vietnamese fought a guerrilla style of warfare. The came the delivered hard jabs and disappeared into the night. Conventional war tools don't easily adapt to that kind of warfare.
An argument can be made for both decades as having a greater impact on the development of US society. Viewing both decades in comparison to US society in 2017, it could be said that the 1920s was more impactful, in the sense that the US in 2017 looks a lot more like 1927 than 1937.
In the 1920s, the country was a war-weary nation that was in the process of turning inward, figuring out its identity following a costly war which didn't directly affect Americans. The result was the election of a questionably qualified Republican president who said that a return to normalcy, to the America of old, was what the nation needed. He pursued heavier tariffs and policies that would withdraw America from the world stage.
The nation was enjoying a soaring stock market setting all time records on a near daily basis. There was a great deal of inequality, and in the absence of a cohesive national vision/identity, people turned to false idols of status, partying, and conspicuous opulence to find meaning and fulfillment. Many illegal drugs, such as marijuana and alcohol at the time, were consumed openly and in large quantities despite their illegality.
Everything written above could be said of the United States in 2017. Let's hope that the parallels do not continue into the 9th year of the decade, when an epic stock market crash led to over a decade of economic disaster in the United States.
Answer:
The correct answer is A) Portuguese goods were less valuable than Chinese goods
Explanation:
At the time, the Chinese civilization was one of the most advanced in the world. The products they made including silk, ornaments, porcelain etc had a lot of value in countries like Portugal who had a growing income.
However, Portuguese products were not of very high quality. The Portuguese developed textiles, wooden products and even imported new agriculture products from South America. However, these products were not considered valuable in China.
Hence, Ming China wanted the Portuguese to pay in more valuable for Gold and Silver.
