What ultimately led to Italy leaving the paris peace conference?

1 answer:

7 0

The Italian Prime Minister Orlando didn't speak English,and as this was the language used by the other 3 members of the Big Four Allied powers,he felt left out and sidelined. It became clear that Britain and France were going to renege on the promises of territorial gains they had made to Italy in 1915 to get Italy to join the war on the Allied side. France and Britain had come to the conclusion that Italy had been more of a liability than an aset during the war - considerable aid in terms of arms and other supplies had been sent to Italy,as well as thousands of French and British troops,to prevent an Ital;ian collapse.Orlando thus wasn't held in very high regard by Clemenceau or Lloyd George. So really combination of these factors caused Orlando to walk out of the conference in a huff,feeling he and Italy as a nation had been insulted.

What are the benefits and drawbacks of oil boom in Kilgore, TX?

REY [17]

Answer:

The effects of the oil boom in Kilgore, Texas helped relieve the effects of the Depression in the area. Oil discovery on the region led to rapid industrialization and more revenue which helped in the development of other sectors such as transportation, education and other social amenities.

The set back was mainly pollution. The industrial processing of the oil led to air pollution from the industries due to gas flaring. Water pollution was also common and the waters in the area are regarded as one of the most polluted in the United States. This was because the several sea ports built in the area for easy transportation of the oil had some oil seeping out into the water during loading and offloading. The land which had oil with neighboring water bodies weren't spared too.

Why do women have a longer life expectancy than men?

Allushta [10]

Women have longer life expectancy than men because it is biologically supported. Firstly, women engage less in behaviors that are bad for health than men such as excess smoking and drinking. In addition to that, women currently better profit from advanced health care and better living conditions such as regular medical check-ups.

Moreover, from the genetics perspective, when mutation occurs of one gene of the X chromosome, women have another X chromosome for compensation which increases their resistance to biological aging. Lastly, men participate in activities/works especially those that utilize more muscles and energy that result into their worn out state faster than compared to women .
