Why is Great Britain in 'immense debt' at the time of the speech?

Which phrase best describes the British government during the 19th century?

Levart [38]

The phrase that best describes British at the time is:

B. A constitutional monarchy with elected officials holding most political power

Explanation:

By the time of the 19th century Britain had taken a lot of the power of the monarchy away from them due to the constant and slow power struggle between the parliament and the ruler.

By the time of Queen Victoria the prime minster of the nation was a s powerful or more but in name the Queen remained on top and was a big presence on the world stage.

This is why the place was more of a constitutional monarchy than anything else.

Nazis launch Kristallnacht

On November 9, 1938, in an event that would foreshadow the Holocaust, German Nazis launch a campaign of terror against Jewish people and their homes and businesses in Germany and Austria. The violence, which continued through November 10 and was later dubbed “Kristallnacht,” or “Night of Broken Glass,” after the countless smashed windows of Jewish-owned establishments, left approximately 100 Jews dead, 7,500 Jewish businesses damaged and hundreds of synagogues, homes, schools and graveyards vandalized. An estimated 30,000 Jewish men were arrested, many of whom were then sent to concentration camps for several months; they were released when they promised to leave Germany. Kristallnacht represented a dramatic escalation of the campaign started by Adolf Hitler in 1933 when he became chancellor to purge Germany of its Jewish population.
