Why did Prime Minister Nehru's decision to invade the Portuguese colony of Goa, put President Kennedy in a difficult position?

History
1 answer:
Archy [21]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Nehru's attack on Goa would weaken capitalist forces worldwide, facilitating the spread of communism. This hindered the policy advocated by Kennedy.

Explanation:

Nehru was the prime minister of India and in addition to having to defend the country from the communist threat that was growing because of China and Russia, he had to defend the country from European colonialism.

The Goa region, in Inida, was still dominated and occupied by the Portuguese, forcing Nehru to order an attack to be made in that region, so that the Portuguese could be expelled. President Kennedy saw this as a major threat to capitalist forces, as Portuguese was a capitalist ally and India too. If a capitalist country provoked another capitalist country, it would make capitalism seen as a weak policy and incapable of promoting peace. This would allow communism to move forward with great force.

How did Alexander the third reverse the plans for a parlimentary system?
allsm [11]

The Anti-Reforms of Alexander III had three main components:


1) Repression of political opponents and religious minorities


2) Undoing some of the reforms of his father


3) And to restore Russia's position internationally.


The purpose of Russification was to rid Russia of western, particularly liberal, ideas that Alexander believed had weakened Russia and compromised its national identity - he wanted to reclaim Russia’s Russian-ness. To achieve this, many liberals and foreigners were exiled, books were banned and political meetings broken up. There was a religious aspect of Russification: Orthodox Christians were favoured over other religions in many ways, especially in Imperial appointments, and the Orthodox Church had to preach obedience to the Tsar, as well as being made to inform the authorities if anyone confessed to anything seditious in confession (previously confession had been confidential between parishioner and priest).


One of the main political anti-reforms was the neutering of the Zemstvos, the rural councils. In 1889, the powers that the Zemstvos had were removed; local magistrates were also removed and replaced by people who were directly appointed and answerable to the Minister of the Interior.


The industrialisation of Russia, began under Alexander II, was meant to cement Russia's position as a Great Power, able to compete both militarily and commercially with France, Britain and Turkey.

Did Civil War technology help or hurt soldiers? Why?
sweet [91]

Answer:

The Civil War was a time of great social and political upheaval. It was also a time of great technological change. Inventors and military men devised new types of weapons, such as the repeating rifle and the submarine, that forever changed the way that wars were fought. Even more important were the technologies that did not specifically have to do with the war, like the railroad and the telegraph. Innovations like these did not just change the way people fought wars–they also changed the way people lived.
