a) Identify factors that led to the Russian Revolution (1917).

The October Revolution in Russia in 1917 signified the collapse of Tsarist Russia and the establishment of a regime by the Bolsheviks and the leader of the Communist Party, Lenin. The main reason, among others, was the dissatisfaction of peasants and workers due to large class differences. The dissatisfaction of workers and peasants was preceded by several wars that Russia led and lost all, but the war with Turkey. Peasants barely survived in unreformed economic agricultural conditions. Workers fought for bigger rights in factories, for shortening working hours, but primacy was in waging wars, rather than dealing with economic issues and dissatisfaction of workers and peasants. Also, Emperor Nicholas spent more time dealing with his own family than on state issues. All this led to the general dissatisfaction of the people and the October Revolution.

b) Identify factors that led to the Mexican Revolution (1910–17).

Some of the factors that led to the Mexican Revolution were the dictatorship-like way of ruling that Porfirio Diaz exhibited for over 30 years, the exploitation and poor treatment of laborers, and the large disparity between rich and poor. While there is no definite cause for the Mexican Revolution, there were many factors that led to the decision to rebel against the government.

c) Explain how land-based and maritime empires gave way to new states in the 20th century.

The land-based and maritime empires gave way to new states in the 20th century when the older, land-based empires such as the Ottoman empire, the Russian empire, and the Qing empire collapsed due to a combination of internal and external factors.

Answer:

a) Political and economic factors led to the Russian Revolution of 1917. In the early 1900s, while the rest of the world was already industrialized, Russia was still using subsistence farming with no modern transportation and a large peasant class. Tsar Nicholas II ruled the nation through an autocratic rule with secret police and no representative parliament. The Revolution of 1905 in St. Petersburg started a series of lasting political and social effects on Russia. During World War I, Russia's conditions worsened as the population at home fell into famine and millions died or were wounded on the battlefield. The royal family's popularity further weakened when the tsar took control of the military and left his German wife in charge, but Tsarina Alexandra appointed control to the provisional government who were also unable to win the support of the people. At this time, support for the communist Bolsheviks grew who rallied together to overthrow the Russian government and establish a soviet.  

b) Political factors led to the Mexican Revolution which lasted from 1910 to 1917. The conservatives and liberals disagreed on how to govern the new nation. Mexican forces also took a blow in the Mexican-American War which was a result of Texas' independence and the United States' annexation of Texas. After the war, new liberal leader Benito Juarez redistributed wealth and church lands while instituting reforms, but these went in vain when France overthrew the government and Porfirio Diaz came and established a dictatorship. While Diaz improved infrastructure and increased foreign investments, there was limited democracy and freedom during his rule. The Mexican Revolution was started by the imprisonment of Francisco Madero, a reformer, when he ran for president. In 1910, rebellions began in support of Madero and a bloody civil war forced Diaz out of office. Mexican independence was a long journey because of continued intervention from foreign powers including the United States and France. The Mexican Constitution of 1917 finally established necessary land and social reforms, including limitations on foreign ownership and prohibition of discrimination.

c) When the land-based and maritime empires such as the Ottoman Empire, Spanish Empire, Russian Empire and Qing Dynasty ended due to a combination of internal and external conflicts, they gave way to new states in the 20th century including the Czech Republic, Paula in the Pacific Ocean and many other smaller nationalities gained independence after Austria-Hungary was dissolved after the First World War. Nationalism increased in the 1900s and as a result, the people piled up their desire to gain independence and waited for the right time. After the powder keg exploded in the Balkans and WWI ended, nationalists took advantage of the weak governments and leading powers. In such a way, while the governments were weak, they ultimately gave way to the rising nationalist feelings and rebellions soon turned into independence for many nations in the 20th century.

Answer:

Explanation:

The Battle of Fort Sumter (April 12–13, 1861) was the bombardment of Fort Sumter near Charleston, South Carolina by the South Carolina militia (the Confederate Army did not yet exist), and the return gunfire and subsequent surrender by the United States Army, that started the American Civil War.

Following the declaration of secession by South Carolina on December 20, 1860, its authorities demanded that the U.S. Army abandon its facilities in Charleston Harbor. On December 26, Major Robert Anderson of the U.S. Army surreptitiously moved his small command from the vulnerable Fort Moultrie on Sullivan's Island to Fort Sumter, a substantial fortress built on an island controlling the entrance of Charleston Harbor. An attempt by U.S. President James Buchanan to reinforce and resupply Anderson using the unarmed merchant ship Star of the West failed when it was fired upon by shore batteries on January 9, 1861. South Carolina authorities then seized all Federal property in the Charleston area except for Fort Sumter.

During the early months of 1861, the situation around Fort Sumter increasingly began to resemble a siege. In March, Brigadier General P. G. T. Beauregard, the first general officer of the newly formed Confederate States Army, was placed in command of Confederate forces in Charleston. Beauregard energetically directed the strengthening of batteries around Charleston harbor aimed at Fort Sumter. Conditions in the fort deteriorated due to shortages of men, food, and supplies as the Union soldiers rushed to complete the installation of additional guns.

The resupply of Fort Sumter became the first crisis of the administration of the newly inaugurated U.S. President Abraham Lincoln following his victory in the election of November 6, 1860. He notified the Governor of South Carolina, Francis W. Pickens, that he was sending supply ships, which resulted in an ultimatum from the Confederate government for the immediate evacuation of Fort Sumter, which Major Anderson refused. Beginning at 4:30 a.m. on April 12, the Confederates bombarded the fort from artillery batteries surrounding the harbor. Although the Union garrison returned fire, they were significantly outgunned and, after 34 hours, Major Anderson agreed to evacuate. There were no deaths on either side as a direct result of this engagement, although a gun explosion during the surrender ceremonies on April 14 caused the death of two U.S. Army soldiers.

Following the battle, there was widespread support from both North and South for further military action. Lincoln's immediate call for 75,000 volunteers to suppress the rebellion resulted in an additional four Southern states also declaring their secession and joining the Confederacy. The battle is usually recognized as the first battle that opened the American Civil War.
