History

geniusboy [140]3 years ago
5 0

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

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

The reason why the Allies couldn't land in the northwestern part of France in World War II was that the Allies did not have air superiority in northern France in the North Sea. The Allies believed that Germany was too strong in the North with better defenses

That is why the Allies chose to land in Normandy, closer to the bases in England, and its open beaches not as heavily defended as in the North.

The code name for Normandy was "Operation Overload."

In June 1944, the Allied forces, comprised in the mission by the United States, Great Britain, Canada, France, and Poland, liberated that territory that was invaded by the German Army. After that victory, the Allied forces advanced to Berlin.

5. What lands did Spain lay claim to and how did Portugal react?
mote1985 [20]
As the Portuguese were establishing trading posts along the west coast of Africa, Spain watched with increasing envy. The Spanish monarchs also desired a direct sea route to Asia. In 1492, an Italian sea captain, Christopher Columbus, convinced Spain to finance a bold plan: finding a route to Asia by sailing west across the Atlantic Ocean. In October of that year, Columbus reached an island in the Caribbean. He was mistaken in his thought that he had reached the East Indies. But his voyage would open the way for European colonization of the Americas-a process that would forever change the world. The immediate impact of Columbus's voyage, however, was to increase tensions between Spain and Portugal. The Portuguese believed that Columbus had indeed reached Asia. Portugal suspected that Columbus had claimed for Spain lands that Portuguese sailors might have reached first. The rivalry between Spain and Portugal grew more tense. In 1493, Pope Alexander VI stepped in to keep peace between the two nations. He suggested an imaginary dividing line, drawn north to south, through the Atlantic Ocean. All lands to the west of the line, known as the Line of Demarcation, would be Spain's. These lands included most of the Americas. All lands to the east of the line would belong to Portugal. Portugal complained that the line gave too much to Spain. So it was moved farther west to include parts of modern-day Brazil for the Portuguese. In 1494, Spain and Portugal signed the Treaty of Tordesillas, in which they agreed to honor the line. The era of exploration and colonization was about to begin in earnest.

Why did Charles Dickens write about the terrible effects of industrialisation on people’s lives and characters'? Give one reason
Zielflug [23.3K]

The Catholic church had entered a process in which it was gaining immense power, having influence in many government affairs and institutions. This started when the Roman Empire decided to adopt Catholicism as the official religion.

However, during the 16th century, the Renaissance, which was a philosophical current that focused on human development appeared. This brought many developments, particularly in literature and science. One of the key figures during this period was Nicolaus Copernicus, which published a series of works in which he claimed that the Sun, and not the Earth, was the center of the universe. These ideas were highly disruptive at the time and represented a threat to the Catholic Church, as they thought that the further spread of this way of thinking among the people will eventually lead them to lose power.
