1 answer:

4 0

Truman was the one who adopted a policy of containment. This (arguably) aggressive approach was what influenced America to get into wars such as the Korean War and other smaller conflicts. Meanwhile, Eisenhower was a bit less aggressive. Although his Secretary of State Dulles preached Brinksmanship and was very anti-Soviet, Eisenhower himself was somewhat against this, as shown when he did nothing to prevent the Hungarian Revolt. He also sought to increase U.S-Soviet Relations in the Spirit of Geneva, but the U-2 Incident pretty much erased most of his progress.

Xelga [282]

Answer: Balkans were called the "powder keg" of Europe because of the tensions and conflicts in the political situation going on. The Balkans consisted of numerous ethnic people, different religious groups, several cultural backgrounds.

Explanation:

The Balkans were preceded by World War 1 and in the early 20th century. Men from several countries joined the Balkan League because some were still under Ottoman rule even though independence had been achieved. It only took 4 states to defeat the Ottomans during the first war. However, Bulgaria was defeated in the 2nd war. When the "powder keg" finally exploded after fighting back and forth, this was when the first World War was started.

Which American political party experienced a surge in membership because of growing labor unrest and high unemployment rates in

jarptica [38.1K]

The 1930’s is the time where Great Depression took place. In that time, stock market crashed, unemployment went to the top, banks raced to liquidate loans to cough up cash to sustain bank runs, and many banks closed. It resulted to economic hardship to people in rural and city areas, most especially among agricultural and factory workers. Huge numbers of people lost their jobs, while those who still have jobs face very uncertain future. The Communist Party USA have attractive platforms like more power for workers and for the common man. Therefore, membership of the Communist Party USA swelled to about 55,000 in the 1930s.
