History
1 answer:
Hoochie [10]3 years ago

Answer: It effectively ended Japanese Naval Supremacy.

Explanation:

Before the Battle of Midway, the Japanese were a very formidable force in the Pacific. Their navy boasted of several aircraft carriers which allowed them to sink ships with planes and they used this to devastating effect against the Americans at Pearl Harbor and the Australians.

The Japanese knew that if they could capture Midway, they would get the opportunity to negotiate favorably with the Americans and the Americans knew they could not lose Midway due to its strategic location.

The Americans broke the Japanese code for the battle and figured out their plans and used this to inflict a heavy loss on the Japanese by sinking 4 of their aircraft carriers. The Japanese Navy never recovered from this and for the rest of the war, they were on the defensive.

The correct answer is C. The closing of the western frontier.

In his 1893 published paper, The Significance of the Frontier in American History, Turner stated that while it was technically true that the frontier was closed, it was the frontier life that shaped the success of the United States. His idea, which was summarized in his frontier thesis, traced the development of the United States using the settlement of the West as a measure. He argued that early settlers were essentially Europeans; they had European values and European character, but because of the frontier experience, they had to adapt, resulting in their placing a greater value on things like ingenuity, democracy and individualism. Furthermore, it was these experiences of living out in the frontier that led to settlers becoming distrustful of authority, less artistic, and more violent.

Examples of Jim Crow Laws - Oct. 1960 - Civil Rights
The Jackson Sun - 2001
From the 1880s into the 1960s, a majority of American states enforced segregation through "Jim Crow" laws (so called after a black character in minstrel shows). From Delaware to California, and from North Dakota to Texas, many states (and cities, too) could impose legal punishments on people for consorting with members of another race. The most common types of laws forbade intermarriage and ordered business owners and public institutions to keep their black and white clientele separated. Here is a sampling of laws from various states.

Arizona
Florida
Georgia
Kentucky
