Explanation:

1. 1960: Ghana became a Republic

After gaining freedom from British rule, Ghana took another major step in his fledgling democracy to become a Republic.

July 1, 1960 is the day on which Ghana became an independent republic state and the day was historic in West Africa.

After then Prime Minister, Dr. Kwame Nkrumah proclaimed Ghana as a Republic, he became the country’s first President.

2. 1992: Writing of new constitution and restoration of democracy after decades of military rule

Having returned to democracy after decades of military rule, the 1992 constitution was written to serve as the guide for all Ghanaian citizens.

Ghana previously had three constitutions – 1969, 1979 and 1992 – but the current one is what is now officially regarded as containing the laws of the land.

3. 1997: Appointment of Kofi Annan as UN secretary-general

What was the American foreign policy at the beginning of WWI?

Arturiano [62]

Answer:

Explanation:

1. Pres. Woodrow Wilson at the end of the war was highly regarded by the Europeans as he deployed AEF to help to win the war against the Central Powers. He actively advocated for the adoption of his 14 Points as the major principles of Treaty of Versailles but the other 3 big heads: Great Britain, France, and Italy firmly rejected his suggestions except the last point, creation of League of Nations. The other allied powers want Germany reparation for the War Guilt Clause, $33B in total as Wilson though resented the demand but at last complied.

2. the U.S.A didnt join because they didn't want to get dragged into another European conflict and because they wanted to maintain a policy of isolationism.Many people hoped that this international organization could help to stabilize the world after the Versailles Treaty brought turmoil. Since Switzerland is a neutral country, organizers based the League of Nations in the city of Geneva. While this organization was the brainchild of United States president Woodrow Wilson, the U.S. would not join. Germany and Russia were not allowed to join the organization.

3. Although the League of Nations was much of the work of President Woodrow Wilson America never joined the League of Nations.

This was for several reasons, firstly America had suffered civilian casualties in the war, and many people in the USA wanted to keep America out of European affairs.

This policy was called isolationism and was probably the main reason that America didn't join the League.

Also joining the league meant that this might involve having to do things that might set back the economy or damage America otherwise.

For instance sending out soldiers out to other parts of the globe would be a very costly venture and there would probably be casualties as well.

There was also the fact that America had had little involvement in the war and had some civilians (especially German immigrants) also had little or no support for British or French policies and/or the Treaty of Versailles.

So although when the League was actually being formed Woodrow Wilson still backed America joining it, by this time America had had enough of wars and dealing with other countries problems and, despite Wilson America never joined the League.
