Answer:
African countries that were colonized because of imperialism did not benefit.

Answer:
b. Critics of the government were murdered or imprisoned.
Explanation:
Here is an in-depth explanation for my answer. These have neither dates nor real evidence to back them up, so you will have to find any sources to back up my claims on your own. You're also free to disagree or edit my take of Stalin's totalitarianism; my aim here is just to give a starting point for you to build off of and make your own.
a. Peasants owned land that they could farm.
- Communism and really socialism as a whole brought forth an idea that there should be no privately owned land; any and all land was owned by the federal government, and people simply used it. So, even with little historical knowledge on Stalinism, we can assume this answer is incorrect.
b. Critics of the government were murdered or imprisoned.
- Under Stalinism, there was no room for critique of government. Any party leaders and any critics of Stalinism with goals set on exposing corruption and flaws in current Soviet society were later found dead or jailed, peasants were imprisoned and put into forced labor if they went against the state and also sometimes killed off if they were thought of as spies. In the end, Stalin attempted complete removal of any opposition he may have faced, and used fear tactics to control the Soviet Union as its dictator.
c. Voters could choose between candidates from two political parties.
- Voters could not find any candidats that weren't already killed off by Stalin, so there was no one to vote for other than Stalin himself. Sure, they could vote, but there wasn't a political party other than Stalin's that could grab the brainwashed public's vote.
d. The government set up a court system based on truth and justice.
- If there was a court system to be found in the Soviet Union at the time, it was so unnoteworthy it may as well have not existed in the first place. The "court system" under Stalin rule was basically just an extension of Stalin's power, and Stalin always made sure that any decision was made with his consent or with his consent in mind.
Answer:
The Seven Years' War ended with the signing of the treaties of Hubertusburg and Paris in February 1763.
Explanation:
The treaty ensured the colonial and maritime supremacy of Britain and strengthened the 13 American colonies by removing their European rivals to the north and the south.
Through the Easton Treaty and several others, the British successfully neutralized the French-Indigenous alliance in the Ohio Valley during the Seven Years' War (1756–63) by guaranteeing the protection of Indigenous lands from Anglo-American colonists.
The positive achievements of the Assyrian Empire were mostly their achievements in metalworks. The Assyrians were widely known and made important contributions to metalurgy as they were masters of iron works and producing items out of iron.
Answer:
Life in the ghettos was usually unbearable. Overcrowding was common. One apartment might have several families living in it. Plumbing broke down, and human waste was thrown in the streets along with the garbage. Contagious diseases spread rapidly in such cramped, unsanitary housing. People were always hungry. Germans deliberately tried to starve residents by allowing them to purchase only a small amount of bread, potatoes, and fat. Some residents had some money or valuables they could trade for food smuggled into the ghetto; others were forced to beg or steal to survive. During the long winters, heating fuel was scarce, and many people lacked adequate clothing. People weakened by hunger and exposure to the cold became easy victims of disease; tens of thousands died in the ghettos from illness, starvation, or cold. Some individuals killed themselves to escape their hopeless lives.
Every day children became orphaned, and many had to take care of even younger children. Orphans often lived on the streets, begging for bits of bread from others who had little or nothing to share. Many froze to death in the winter.
In order to survive, children had to be resourceful and make themselves useful. Small children in the Warsaw ghetto sometimes helped smuggle food to their families and friends by crawling through narrow openings in the ghetto wall. They did so at great risk, as smugglers who were caught were severely punished.
Many young people tried to continue their education by attending school classes organized by adults in many ghettos. Since such classes were usually held secretly, in defiance of the Nazis, pupils learned to hide books under their clothes when necessary, to avoid being caught.
Although suffering and death were all around them, children did not stop playing with toys. Some had beloved dolls or trucks they brought into the ghetto with them. Children also made toys, using whatever bits of cloth and wood they could find. In the Lodz ghetto, children turned the tops of empty cigarette boxes into playing cards.
