He believed that if he attacked first he would save thousands of American lives if he scared the Japanese into surrendering
America’s promise of freedom is filled with contradiction. Perhaps no people understood this more than the roughly four million enslaved African Americans living in the United States before 1863. Through their actions, large and small, enslaved people worked toward the moment of freedom for more than 200 years. On January 1, 1863, the United States government responded. Invoking presidential wartime powers, Abraham Lincoln decreed that all persons held in bondage within the Confederacy were free. The Emancipation Proclamation cracked open the institution of slavery, changing the course of the Civil War and the nation.
Massive inflation.

Answer:
Hello. You did not put the answer options, but a fact that links the "rise of Pericles to power" and the "Peloponnesian War and the death of Pericles" is the growth of the power of Athens while the power of Sparta was suppressed.
Explanation:
Pericles was a great Greek politician who came to power in Athens, where he had an administrable administration making Athens a great cultural, artistic, military, political and economic center.
Under his administration, Athens has become very strong and powerful, however. Pericles had big plans for Athens, one of which included suppressing the power and influence of Sparta, which became increasingly threatened by PEricles' government.
Tension with Sparta triggered the Peloponnesian war, causing the Spartans to invade the cities near Athens. This invasion was used against Pericles who was temporarily condemned, accused and defaulted on public money. Pericles died shortly afterwards a victim of the plague.
