The statements referred by the question are:
a) It convinced the United States to dismantle its nuclear weapons.
b) It proved that a naval blockade was not an act of war.
c) It showed Cuba that communism should be stopped.
d) It brought the world dangerously close to nuclear war.
The correct statement is D. Historians agree the Missile Crisis was the closest the world got to have a nuclear war between the U.S. and USSR. Nothing before or after this came as close to be direct aggression from one of these countries against the other.
Statements A and C never happened: the U.S. has nuclear weapons until today, and Cuba didn't give up on communism.
Statement B doesn't fit the facts around the Missile Crisis. The naval blockade didn't lead to war only because the U.S. was defensive.

The Confederacy was an important supplier of cotton to Europe, including Britain and France. The Confederate leadership believed that Britain and France would eventually intervene in their favour once the cotton supply went down because of the war.
Unfortunately for the Confederacy, this never happenned because Europe got the cotton it needed from other countries such as Egypt and India. Besides, the fact that the Confederacy supported slavery also prevented France and Britain from supporting them, because in both countries, slavery was unpopular.
