The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached we can say the following.

Considering the United States and the Soviet Union's plans for post-World War II Germany, we can say they contrast first of all, in that the US and the USSR had completely different ideologies that soon confronted and created what was known as the Cold War after World War II.

The United States firstly tried to implement the Morgenthau Plan, elaborated by US Secretary of the Treasury, Henry Morgenthau Jr. in 1944. The idea was to severely diminish Germany's military power to avoid another world war in the future, but the plan was later rejected.

The United States decided to support the reconstruction of Europe with the Marshall Plan and loaned millions of dollars to help reconstruction.

On the other hand, the Soviet Union wanted to maintain power and control over some Eastern European countries, included Germany. The USSR kept control of Berlin and East Germany, while the US kept the support of West Germany.

Soviet leader Joseph Stalin ordered the construction of the Berlin Wall, kept the satellite nations such as Czechoslovakia, Rumania, Albania, Bulgaria, Poland, and Hungary, and instilled the ideology of Communism.

The United States reacted by implementing the policy of containment to avoid the spread of communism to other nations.

worty [1.4K]

Crusaders participated in the Crusades for a number of reasons beyond just reclaiming the Holy Land for Christianity. Some of those reasons included forgiveness of sins, travel opportunities, the desire of younger nobles to obtain land in the Middle East, establishment of new cultural contacts between the East and West and the establishment of new trade routes and commercial opportunities.

In 1863, Lincoln announced his Ten-Percent Plan of Reconstruction for occupied Louisiana and other areas of the Confederacy occu
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

By December 1863, states such as Arkansas, Tennessee, and Louisiana had been cleared of rebels. Accordingly, the question arose about the organization of a civil government in them and the inclusion of these states in the Union. Therefore, on December 8, 1863, Abraham Lincoln published the Amnesty Proclamation, which became the first plan for the Reconstruction of the former rebel states. According to the document, if in the former rebel state, 10 percent of the citizens able to vote as of 1860 took an oath of allegiance to the Union (including Confederate servicemen with a rank lower than colonel), then they could choose the legislature and the governor subject to the legislative abolition of slavery. Thus, the plan called for a Reconstruction under presidential control, relying on the constitutional right of the president to grant pardon. It can be assumed that, putting forward such a plan for Reconstruction, Abraham Lincoln intended, on the one hand, to protect the freedom of former slaves in the newly acquired states, and, on the other, to attract rebels tired of the war to the Union, guaranteeing them full restoration of their rights after taking the oath of allegiance to the Union.
