1. fill in this chart. what were the advantages and disadvantages of each choice for president truman?
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

Keep fighting  - advantage: the U.S. army had the upper hand in the war by the time Truman became president, and it was likely that military Japan for defeat would be only a matter of time (even if very costly if both money and lives).

Disadvantage - before considering (and making) the atomic bomb, defeating Japan required a full invasion of the Japanese archipelago, which would have been very costly, because the Japanese, even in face of defeat, would fight fiercely and defend each island. They would not surrender by any means.

Talk to the Japanese - advantage: holding negotiation talks with the Japanese would be less costly for American taxpayers, and result in less American deaths than invading Japan.

Disadvantage - the Japanese did not trust the Americans and viceversa, and the talks could have gone nowhere, allowing Japan to rebuild some forces, and counterattack.

What the answer to this question by explain it
uysha [10]

Answer:

First off the railroads allowed people to be transported from one city to another in half the time from them walking. This allowed families to see each other and friends to visit. However one problem was how African Americans were treated they were sat in different train cars because of their skin color making a huge drift between whites and African Americans. Nature was affected because trees had to be removed to build the railroads and many forests suffered because of this. Not to mention the smoke from the trains which would pollute the air. Hope this helps.
