What was the main purpose of the marshall plan? science forum?
Vikentia [17]

The Marshall Plan rebuilt European countries' economies after the devasation of World War II.

Explanation/context:

The "Marshall Plan" was named after the man who then was US Secretary of State, George C. Marshall.  Officially the plan was called the European Recovery Program.  Marshall announced the plan in 1947, and it went into effect in 1948.  The intent was to provide aid and rebuilding to European economies after the damaging effects of World War II.   Eastern bloc countries, however, rejected the plan, so it ended up as a plan that benefited Western European nations and not Eastern European nations.

In his speech introducing the plan, Secretary Marshall had said:  "Our policy is not directed against any country, but against hunger, poverty, desperation and chaos. Any government that is willing to assist in recovery will find full co-operation on the part of the United States. Its purpose should be the revival of a working economy in the world so as to permit the emergence of political and social conditions in which free institutions can exist."

The view in the communist-controlled Eastern bloc was that the US was trying to use such a policy to spread its influence and threaten their patterns of government under communism.  So the plan ended up building allies for the US in Western Europe, while the Eastern European countries sided with the Soviet Union.

American revolution, french revolution, and glorious revolution similarities
agasfer [191]

Answer:

The Glorious Revolution, the American Revolution, and the French Revolution were all rebellions against monarchs. The Revolution commenced as the the lower class of France despised the government who did nothing for them. The Glorious Revolution began similarly as they both wished to overthrow the king, but in this case, the Parliament was the main victim rather than the people. The American Revolution did lead to a democratic government, while the French revolution implemented many elements of democracy, such as universal civil and political rights.  Like the American Revolution, the Glorious Revolution involved substantial intervention by a foreign power: In the Glorious Revolution it was the Dutch, who sort of quietly invaded England, while in the American Revolution it was France which supported the American colonists.

is the situation in Benin with de souza family is comparable to the history of the civil war and slavery in the south?​
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

Explanation: If in a way it can be compared since both in Benin and in the South of the United States, the conditions of the slaves were the same: "lousy". The treatment of Africans and African Americans was inhuman. Francisco Félix de Souza was dealing with slaves and was a faithful servant of Guezo in order to defeat his brother, King Adondazan, who ruled in Dahomey, as Benin was formerly known.
