What dose Truman mean when he claims,"Should we fall to aid Greece and Turkey in this fateful hour, the effect will be far reach
pav-90 [236]
Truman is claiming that if the United States does not help Greece and Turkey, they will eventually fall to communism.

This excerpt is from a speech given by Truman after World War II and is the basis of the Truman Doctrine. After World War II, the US was worried about the Soviet Union and the system of communism spreading all over Europe. If communism spread, it would increase the Soviet Union's power, making them the world's largest superpower.

The US did not want this to happen, as they feared that if one country fell to communism, nearby countries would fall as well. This is known as the domino theory. To prevent this from happening, the US ends up giving $400 million to Greece and Turkey in order to stabilize their economy.

What do you think the missionaries could have done in order to prevent the failure of the East Texas missions
patriot [66]

Answer:

The missionaries could have tried a more friendly approach with the natives, besides having tried to make alliances with the French.

Explanation:

The missions promoted by the Spanish in the east in Texas had as main objective to expel the French from the region, to convert natives and to make the place safe for the establishment of borders.

Although a few borders were established, the missions were not successful. The natives had friendly relations with the French, which meant that the Spanish missions were not strong enough to expel them. Furthermore, the missionaries' approach to the Indians was not accepted with friendliness, but it did establish a strong conflict between natives and Spaniards.
