Answer:

Find the explanation below.

Explanation:

1. The primary source which is a telegram from Senator Joseph McCarthy to President Henry S. Truman was meant to raise suspicions of personnel's within the United States government whom he referred to as Communists. This happened at a time when the citizens of the United States were apprehensive about communists because of possible links to the Soviet Union.

2. The author intended that the President take his claims seriously by fishing out the names of those within the State Department whom he claimed were communists, prosecuting them, and possibly relieve them of their services.

3. The Senator was trying to be controversial. He wanted to gain cheap political points and also curry favor with the people so that he can be seen as a Senator that worked hard to prevent threats to the American nation. Then, he would be re-elected by the people in his second term.

4. This telegram helps us to see how certain political leaders can promote policies for their selfish interests and not necessarily for the people. It also shows how tense the relationship between the United States and the Soviet Union was after World War II.

Goryan [66]

Answer:

OC. Because Europeans traded guns for enslaved people, the triangular trade increased warfare among

Explanation:

Here is some information that I read to understand this topic: "It has been estimated that over 12 million Africans were forcibly removed from Africa and transported across the Atlantic to the Caribbean islands and the American continent. The size of the Atlantic slave trade dramatically transformed African societies.

The slave trade brought about a negative impact on African societies and led to the long-term impoverishment of West Africa. This intensified effects that were already present amongst its rulers, kinships, kingdoms, and in society."

Hope this helps! :)

Based on the cartoon, explain the authors point of view about the Munich Agreement
juin [17]

Answer:

The cartoon expresses a view of utter contempt for Chamberlain, who was the British Prime Minister at the time.

Explanation:

The Munich Agreement was signed by Britain, France, Italy (Germany's ally), and Germany, and what the pact allowed Germany to annex a portion of Czeckoslovakia named the "Sudeteland", mostly inhabited by Ethnic Germans.

Hitler had threatened with starting a war if the pact was not signed, and claimed that the Sudeteland would be the last land annexation of Nazi Germany in Europe.

British leader Chamberlain, and French leader Philippe Pétain believed in Hitler's word, and signed the agreement.

The agreement was obviously a failure, because only a year later Germany would launch the invasion of Poland, starting World War II.

For this reason, both Chamberlain and Pétain are seen by historians as ineffective leaders.
