Answer:
Explanation:
The Battle of Fredericksburg on December 13, 1862, involved nearly 200,000 combatants, the largest concentration of troops in any Civil War battle. Ambrose Burnside, the newly appointed commander of the Army of the Potomac, had ordered his more than 120,000 troops to cross the Rappahannock River, where they made a two-pronged attack on the right and left flanks of Robert E. Lee’s 80,000-strong Army of Northern Virginia at Fredericksburg. On both ends, Lee’s rebel defenders turned back the Union assault with heavy casualties (nearly 13,000), particularly from their high position atop Marye’s Heights. The results of the battle sent Union morale plummeting and lent much-needed new energy to the Confederate cause after the failure of Lee’s first invasion of the North at Antietam the previous fall.
The US believed in isolation, if another country attacked the US that is the only way that we would get involved, therefore we tried to stay out of the mass killings and havoc that the Germans and Japanese were creating until we felt that it involved the US. The US did not want to pick a side and have to stay loyal to that side and go to war when that country did because of the alliance. The US finally joined in to help the allied powers to supply them with weapons/military troops. They did not enter the war until December 1941.
The correct answer is A) Both embraced Western ideas and worked to bring Russia fully into European cultural and political life.
The statement that best describes the similarities in reforms between Catherine the Great and Peter the Great is "Both embraced Western ideas and worked to bring Russia fully into European cultural and political life."
These rulers of Russia were interested in maintaining close ties and relationships with western European nations. They received the influence of other European rulers and customs from other parts of the continent.
Both Peter and Catherine considered that a good education was a good investment and although were dictators -Emperors in that time- they ruled to expand Russia's territory. However, both failed in improving the living condition of their subjects that remained poor.
With a 2/3 vote. If both the Texas Senate and the Texas House get two thirds of votes to override, they can override a veto and nobody can do anything about it. It's similar even in the congress of the federation, not just a Texas thing. This is called a large majority and it's that many people because it's usually about serious things that can't just be decided easily.
