The OPEC oil embargo was an incident during which the 12 OPEC countries stopped exporting oil to the United States. The embargo sent the price of gas through the roof. Prices more than quadrupled from 1973-1974.
<u>Explanation</u>:
- OPEC was founded by Iran, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Venezuela and Kuwait in 1960 with the main objective of raising oil prices. OPEC had little effect on oil prices but a rise in demand and a fall in U.S. oil production.
- Extracting oil and natural gas has decreased the quantity of the oil that the U.S. has to import, and added employment, investment, and development to the economy.
- The embargo played a role in stagflation. Oil discovery and refining is again a significant US industry.

This is done to ensure constant firing, to make up for lost time in reloading and make up for missed shots.
The aim is to consistently be on the offensive.
It is most closely associated with the Dutch forces but was used by American forces against the British.
