Explain how World War II changed opportunities for African Americans
Luba_88 [7]

The World War II involvement of the United States meant that lot of men had to go to war. This left a very big gap in the labor force market. Because of the lack of labor force, the people that were not sent to fight, including lot of African Americans, found themselves in a nice position when it came to job opportunities. The empty spaces in the labor market had to be filled in order for the economy to run, so pretty much everyone managed to get a job with ease. This opened a lot of doors for the African Americans against which there was lot of discrimination until then, so they used the opportunity, managed to get nicer jobs and to prosper in life because of it.

Why was Abbas the Great like Sultan Suleiman?
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

B. Both killed most of their sons

Explanation:

Abbās the Great (1571-1629) was the shah of Persia from 1588 to 1629. He developed an increasing paranoia over being killed by a family member to remove him from power, which led him to kill or blind those he was suspicious of. That´s why he killed one of his sons and blinded the other one, leaving him without any heir able to succeed him.

Sultan Suleiman I (1494-1566), known as "the Magnificent, also executed his son, Shahzad Mustafa, due to fear of being assassinated.

Good luck!

Why were the Allies (U.S., Great Britain, and the U.S.S.R.) able to defeat Nazi Germany in the Second World War?
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

This is because the Allies had different roles which are attacking on different fronts and colonies. America, Canada, and Great Britain fought in the Western Front in which they started to attack German liberated Europe in Normandy on June 6, 1944. Germany betraying and invading Russia was the moment Hitler started to lose the war (Operation Barbarossa). Russia was able to defeat Nazi Germany mainly because of the cold winter and Stalin moving their factories East to make a ton of supplies to fight back against the Germans. The Battle of Stalingrad known to be the bloodiest battle of ww2 and one of the deadliest in history, was when the USSR started to do good progress to pushing the Nazis back a lot. The Battle of the Bulge in the western front is when the German army started to get a lot more weaker since Hitler wanted to encircle Belgium which failed and made a nice bulge. The Allies were able to regain that bulge.
