My guess on this question would be : Cold War .During Cold War USSR and USA were investing huge money in defenses and military technology to show each other they are powerful. Though its called Cold 'War' there was no war. There were no fighting. Just show.

In what ways did Caesar act like a king?
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

Julius Caesar began to reshape the Roman Republic by beginning to give himself authority over certain aspects other officials would get. For example, Caesar gained control of the consul (which were supposed to be two that held the "most" authority), the praetor (which were the replacements of the consuls), and other positions slowly without outright saying he was overruling their authority. He frequently ignored the suggestions of the Senate when it came to war and other affairs, and he basically did as much as he could to gain absolute power without everyone suspecting so. He even declared a civil war against Rome because his enemy, General Pompey, was rivalling his power. I hope this helps, Julius Caesar is a very interesting character!

APUSH LEQ: Analyze and evaluate the motivation and rationale behind the western expansion through the Louisiana Purchase that to
mamaluj [8]

Before the Louisiana Purchase, Louisiana was a French territory, and Napoleon threatened to block American access to the port of New Orleans on the Mississippi River. This scared Americans, because the nation wanted to expand the exports of American products.

President Jefferson sent diplomats to France to bargain access to the River, instead, Napoleon offered the sell of Louisiana. France needed money because of the war against Britain and then, the US bought Louisiana for 15 million dollars.

The Purchase impacted the Western Expansion since it doubled the size of the US and added more 14 states to the Union. It permitted the US to have more land to plantations and increase commerce and trade.

The philosophy of “Manifest Destiny” also became popular with the belief that Americans were destined to expand their territory.
