Explanation:

The Quarantine Speech was given by U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt on October 5, 1937 in Chicago (on the occasion of the dedication of the bridge between north and south outer Lake Shore Drive), calling for an international "quarantine" against the "epidemic of world lawlessness" by aggressive nations as an alternative to the political climate of American neutrality and non-intervention that was prevalent at the time. The speech intensified America's isolationist mood, causing protest by non-interventionists and foes to intervene. No countries were directly mentioned in the speech, although it was interpreted as referring to the Empire of Japan, the Kingdom of Italy, and Nazi Germany.[1] Roosevelt suggested the use of economic pressure, a forceful response, but less direct than outright aggression.

Public response to the speech was mixed. Famed cartoonist Percy Crosby, creator of Skippy (comic strip) and very outspoken Roosevelt critic, bought a two-page advertisement in the New York Sun to attack it.[2] In addition, it was heavily criticized by Hearst-owned newspapers and Robert R. McCormick of the Chicago Tribune, but several subsequent compendia of editorials showed overall approval in US media.[3]

bija089 [108]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Unfortunately, yo did not include the events listed in Table 8.1.

However, you are probably referring to some battles and events that occurred during the American Civil War. If this is the case, then we can help you with the following general terms.

We are going to choose one of the most representative battles of the Civil War. The Battle of Gettysburg.

The Battle of Gettysburg started on July 3 and ended on July 3, 1863. It was one of the bloodiest battles in the Civil War.

The Confederate troops led by General Robert E. Lee were advancing to invade the Northern territory with the idea to capture Washington, the capital of the Union

However,  the Union Army of the Potomac, led by General George Meade confronted the Confederates and after three cays of intense battle, the Union Army defeated the Confederates.

The importance of the result was that it was a decisive loss for the Southern Army that lost nearly 28,000 soldiers, and turned the moment of the war to the Union's side.

This victory, in combination with the Union's Army victory in Vicksburg, Mississippi, gave a solid advantage to the Union Army.
