Answer:
1. It was not very successful, in part because Germany was treated more harshly than planned, and because the US was not even a part of the League.
2. This is your opinion. I would say yes because there would be extra help
3. Wilson subsequently used the Fourteen Points as the basis for negotiating the Treaty of Versailles that ended the war. Although the Treaty did not fully realize Wilson's unselfish vision, the Fourteen Points still stand as the most powerful expression of the idealist strain in United States diplomacy.
4. strengths
- a plan for the breaking down of trade barriers between different countries. Wilson hoped that countries would remove barriers (like tariffs or embargoes) so that countries all over the world could trade goods.
- to grant sovereignty to nations like Austria-Hungary.
weaknesses
-the creation of the League of Nations. This was supposed to be an international peace keeping body. However, there was no way to enforce international peace, as countries were not necessarily forced to provide military assistance when asked by the League.
- to try to reduce the amount of military weapons/armaments for each country. This would rely on countries to voluntarily give up resources, which ended up being a wildly unpopular idea.
<em>Correct response:</em>
In a PRESIDENTIAL government, there is a greater separation of powers between executive and legislative than in a PARLIAMENTARY system of government.
Details:
In a parliamentary system (such as that of Great Britain), the main executive branch office is that of the prime minister. The prime minister is the leader of whichever party receives the greatest number of seats in parliament when elections are held. So there is a direct connection between parliamentary power and executive power.
In a presidential system (such as that of the United States), there is a separation of powers between the executive branch and the legislative branch.

If you remember, this is known as the Holocaust. What the Nazi's did to the Jew was a violation of their human rights and will always go down in history as something to never be forgotten. The way they were treated is unspeakable, brash, cruel, despicable and once the world had found out what the Nazi's were doing; there was a huge uproar. May this never be forgotten.
The event that triggered war came at Fort Sumter in Charleston Bay on April 12, 1861 because of uncompromising differences between the free and slave states over the power of the National Government to prohibit slavery in the territories that had not yet become states.
Both the Chinese and the Japanese felt that the Europeans were barbarians. They were particularly repelled by the smell of these foreigners who ate much fattier diets and who did not typically wash very often. They also felt the Europeans lacked subtlety and were rather crass in their behaviors.
The similarities, however, largely end there. The Chinese tried to simply ignore the Europeans. They were able to do this to some degree because the Europeans did not have anything they wanted. They were willing to take European silver in exchange for tea and otherwise leave the Europeans alone. This worked until around the time of the Opium Wars when the Europeans forced China to open itself more.
