Answer:

The discovery of oil

Explanation:

There are numerous theories about the emergence of oil, but the most accepted is that it came from the organic remains of animals and plants deposited at the bottom of lakes and seas undergoing chemical transformations over thousands of years.

The first oil well was discovered in the United States - Pennsylvania - in the year 1859. It was found in a shallow (21m) region. However, it was in 1900 that oil peaked causing the great consumer boom the world has ever seen.

In 1900 the oil became very valuable and came to be called "Black Gold". In addition to being used as fuel, various products are derived from petroleum such as paraffin, natural gas, LPG, asphalt products, petrochemical naphtha, kerosene, solvents, fuel oils, lubricating oils, diesel oil and aviation fuel.

All of this influenced the production of preducts and consumption by them became increasingly large.

Answer:

irst supporting and then repudiating Mexican regimes during the period 1910-1920.[1]

Explanation:

The United States involvement in the Mexican Revolution was varied and seemingly contradictory, first supporting and then repudiating Mexican regimes during the period 1910-1920.[1] For both economic and political reasons, the U.S. government generally supported those who occupied the seats of power, whether they held that power legitimately or not. A clear exception was the French Intervention in Mexico, when the U.S. supported the beleaguered liberal government of Benito Juárez at the time of the American Civil War (1861-1865). Prior to Woodrow Wilson's inauguration on March 4, 1913, the U.S. Government focused on just warning the Mexican military that decisive action from the U.S. military would take place if lives and property of U.S. nationals living in the country were endangered.[2] President William Howard Taft sent more troops to the US-Mexico border but did not allow them to intervene in the conflict,[3][4] a move which Congress opposed.[4] Twice during the Revolution, the U.S. sent troops into Mexico.
