Answer:
Nationalism advantages - promotes sense of national identity, unifies people
Nationalism disadvantages - conflicts with views of others, diminishes rights of others
Military preparedness advantages - deters/defeats hostile aggression, gives people a sense of safety
Military preparedness disadvantages - seen as threatening, could cause a war draft
Explanation:
Nationalism is basically when a country unifies for a common goal. It could be through use of symbols, too. For example, everyday in school we stand and say the Pledge of Allegiance together. However, sometimes a country can discriminate against a group of ethnic people if the majority doesn't like them.
Military preparedness is as the name says: being ready for war and having a strong military. These are good things and can make people feel safe. However, a potentially opposing country could see this as a challenge which is could be a cause of war.
Answer:
The Articles of Confederation created a national government composed of a Congress, which had the power to declare war, appoint military officers, sign treaties, make alliances, appoint foreign ambassadors, and manage relations with Indians.
The statements referred by the question are:
a) It convinced the United States to dismantle its nuclear weapons.
b) It proved that a naval blockade was not an act of war.
c) It showed Cuba that communism should be stopped.
d) It brought the world dangerously close to nuclear war.
The correct statement is D. Historians agree the Missile Crisis was the closest the world got to have a nuclear war between the U.S. and USSR. Nothing before or after this came as close to be direct aggression from one of these countries against the other.
Statements A and C never happened: the U.S. has nuclear weapons until today, and Cuba didn't give up on communism.
Statement B doesn't fit the facts around the Missile Crisis. The naval blockade didn't lead to war only because the U.S. was defensive.
b. A decrease in states’ rights
