Answer: D. Italy's heavy losses to the British in North Africa. The Germans sent Erwin Rommel to North Africa to beat back the British.
Answer: B. Secretary of State
Explanation:
The Office of the Secretary of State heads the Department of State which means that the holder is in charge of U.S. foreign policy. This position was traditionally seen as a stepping stone to the Presidency with Thomas Jefferson being the first Secretary and then becoming the third President.
Of recent however, Secretaries of State have not been very successful winning primaries( with the exception of Hillary Clinton in 2016) as parties seem to gravitate to those who have held democratic office but this position has however, produced 9 nominees for the Presidency since independence.
Due to the fall in the stock market, there has been a decrease in consumer spending and investments. This was caused by a steep decline in industrial production and a rise in unemployment due to failed companies that fired their workers. After the fall in the first 10 months of 1930, 744 banks collapsed - 10 times more. In all, 9,000 banks collapsed during the decade of the 1930s. It is estimated that 4,000 banks failed only during one year in 1933. Until 1933, depositors lost $ 140 billion due to the failure of banks. This is too simplified to find out the decline in stock trading as a unique cause of the Great Depression. However, in 1932, when the country collapsed in the depths of the Great Depression and about 15 million people (more than 20% of the American population at that time) was unemployed.
