Answer:

Explanation below.

Explanation:

PROS:

  • Reasonable chance of success - Only about 3,000 US soldiers died during the war, which is a low number(spanamwar). Total size of US army was about 248,000 soldiers and volunteers. Spanish casualties were around 60,000.
  • Waged by a legitimate authority - one of the few times war was actually declared using the correct process.

 

CONS:

  • America annexed Hawaii.

  • The US army was not ready to fight in the war. They were understaffed and lacked the skill required to fight.

olga nikolaevna [1]

Franklin Roosevelt is the correct answer.

The Executive order 9066 was issued by President Roosevelt during the World War ll in febuary 1942. It granted the secretary of war the power to declare any area as military area and relocate the people living there. The order was justified owning the reason of protection against esponage and natioal defence. Due to Pear Harbour attack suspicion fell on Japenese Americans, that is why mostly these people were relocated in Western United Sates. They were alowed to carry only whatever they could carry at the moment and rest of their assets were seized by the US Department of Treasury.

Write an essay about having a dog
tiny-mole [99]

To begin with, having a dog can vary based on what type it is. If it's a smaller dog, they tend to be more submissive to make up for what they lack in size. A bigger dog would probably be a little more self confident in that they could play around a little with you. It truly depends on the dogs personality.

Starting off, dogs are an enormous responsibility. Even when people claim they'll take care of their dogs, it's hard to remember the little things. For instance, how much food they need a day, how many walks they need in a week, when they last went to the bathroom, and a bunch of other questions come to mind when dog owners are questioned about the brutality of owning a dog. It takes a lot more effort than often given credit for.

However, once you've established a healthy relationship, pattern, and schedule with a dog, life becomes a lot easier. You're able to better understand the dog's likes and dislikes, favorite people, least favorite sounds, etc. You can begin teaching your dog new tricks by using treats, tones of gratitude, and repetition to teach how you want your dog acting. It's hard to train a dog the older they get, so it's best to teach it as soon as it's physically ready.

Owning a dog is truly a fantastic experience. They honestly become an argument-free and non opinionated family member. They can give you the energy and motivation you need to go on a run in the mornings, if needed.
