Answer:

The military history of the United States in World War II covers the war against the Axis Powers, starting with the 7 December 1941 attack on Pearl Harbor. During the first two years of World War II, the United States had maintained formal neutrality as made official in the Quarantine Speech delivered by US President Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1937, while supplying Britain, the Soviet Union, and China with war material through the Lend-Lease Act which was signed into law on 11 March 1941, as well as deploying the US military to replace the British forces stationed in Iceland. Following the "Greer incident" Roosevelt publicly confirmed the "shoot on sight" order on 11 September 1941, effectively declaring naval war on Germany and Italy in the Battle of the Atlantic.[1] In the Pacific Theater, there was unofficial early US combat activity such as the Flying Tigers.

Ancient land conquered by caesar crossword
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

Gaul

Explanation:

Caesar is one of the most, if not the most well known and famous Roman Emperors. He started off as a military general, and he showed great potential as such. The biggest military success of Caesar was the conquering of most of the territory where the Celtic tribes were living in continental Europe. Big portion of that territory was known by the Romans as Gaul, thus they used that term to identify numerous different Celtic tribes. Caesar played very well tactically when attacking the Celtic people, as he did not went into a full scale war with them, but was instead using surprise attacks on one tribe at a time, thus gradually conquering their territory. The word spread about this around Gaul, and the Gauls gathered a larger military in the short period of time they had, but it was too late. Caesar had already managed to defeat some of them, and had tactically superior military units, leading to eventual defeat of the Gauls and a great success for Caesar and Rome.
