What was General Douglas MacArthur’s island-hopping strategy?

History
1 answer:
____ [38]3 years ago
7 0
General Douglas MacArthur's island-hopping strategy involved sending US troops island-by-island across the Pacific to dislodge Japanese forces stationed on those islands. The US lacked the means to send troops directly to Japan primarily because the Japanese controlled numerous islands across the Pacific to serve as fueling stations for ships and air stations for planes. Through island-hopping, MacArthur gradually took out those Japanese forces and converted the islands into fueling and flight stations for the United States thereby allowing the US to move closer and closer to the Japanese mainland.

What issues led to the French Revolution
xenn [34]

Answer:

1. International - 2. Political conflict - 3. The Enlightenment - 4. Social antagonisms -  5. Ineffective ruler - 6. Economic hardship

Explanation:

International: struggle for hegemony and Empire outstrips the fiscal resources of the state

  1. Political conflict: conflict between the Monarchy and the nobility over the “reform” of the tax system led to paralysis and bankruptcy
  2. The Enlightenment: impulse for reform intensifies political conflicts; reinforces traditional aristocratic constitutionalism, one variant of which was laid out in Montequieu’s Spirit of the Laws; introduces new notions of good government, the most radical being popular sovereignty, as in Rousseau’s Social Contract [1762]; the attack on the regime and privileged class by the Literary Underground of “Grub Street;” the broadening influence of public opinion.
  3. Social antagonisms between two rising groups: the aristocracy and the bourgeoisie
  4. Ineffective ruler: Louis XVI
  5. Economic hardship, especially the agrarian crisis of 1788-89 generates popular discontent and disorders caused by food shortages.
