Answer:

The state was an excellent choice for housing prisoners, as the climate was mild, there were few cities, and POWs could be kept busy working on farms and ranches. Oklahoma Ordnance Works, located between Chouteau and Pryor, was one of several plants that produced powders for explosives and bombs, such as TNT. 10,000 employees worked at the facility. The Tulsa Bomber Plant built several types of bombers, was run by the Douglas Aircraft Company, and employed 23,000 people during the war’s peak. The US Naval Ammunition Depot at McAlester opened in 1943. Citizens petitioned the government to build an ammunitions plant there, and the contracts were awarded because it was located inland and at intersections of highways and railroads. On April 8, 1941, Oklahoma City got a contract for a supply and maintenance depot and opened Tinker Field in 1942. It was the largest air material depot in world, and it specialized in repairing bombers. The base was named after Clarence L. Tinker, the first American Indian in US Army to reach the rank of major general. Thirty thousand people worked at Tinker, half of which were women.

What are characteristics of the Pine Hills region?
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

The plains in this area are southerly sloping, dissected, and uneven. Low, rolling hills, large, gently sloping ridgetops, a few steeper side-slopes where streams cut through, and broad, flat bottomlands along low-to-moderate gradient streams with sand and clay bottoms characterize the landscape.

Why did the two groups fight in the american revolution
vaieri [72.5K]
By 1774, the year leading up to the Revolutionary War, trouble was brewing in America. Parliament (England's Congress) had been passing laws placing taxes on the colonists in America. There had been the Sugar Act in 1764, the Stamp Act the following year, and a variety of other laws that were meant to get money from the colonists for Great Britain. The colonists did not like these laws.
Great Britain was passing these laws because of the French and Indian War, which had ended in 1763. That war, which had been fought in North America, left Great Britain with a huge debt that had to be paid. Parliament said it had fought the long and costly war to protect its American subjects from the powerful French in Canada. Parliament said it was right to tax the American colonists to help pay the bills for the war
Most Americans disagreed. They believed that England had fought the expensive war mostly to strengthen its empire and increase its wealth, not to benefit its American subjects. Also, Parliament was elected by people living in England, and the colonists felt that lawmakers living in England could not understand the colonists' needs. The colonists felt that since they did not take part in voting for members of Parliament in England they were not represented in Parliament. So Parliament did not have the right to take their money by imposing taxes. "No taxation without representation" became the American rallying cry.

Over time, do you think the Catholic Church's missions were more helpful or harmful to the native Americans
FinnZ [79.3K]
Definitely harmful, the Catholic Church is actually what really caused the problems because the interaction between the two made diseases spread, and fights begin when Native Americans didn't want to change
