not to drop the bomb?

Answer:

Explanation:

YES, HE DID MAKE A RIGHT CHOICE

=================================================================

WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF TRUMAN DID NOT DROP THE ATOMIC BOMBS

If he did not drop the bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, this would mean he would have to do a ground invasion of Japan. That is the first problem. The Japanese terrain is filled with mountains where the Japanese have the home field advantage meaning they can take advantage of what they have and pummel the Americans.

Another problem. Japanese soldiers are not the type of people to give up. They follow the standard that if you die in war, you die in war honouring your country but if you do not die for your country, you will live, knowing that you have shamed your family for the rest of your life.

=================================================================

IN A NUTSHELL...

It was to minimize the loss of life even if it meant that civilians were going to die. If a war were to continue, American lives would be lost left, right and centre. This would also bring a more rapid victory, ending the war completely, stopping any more casualties from the war. But clearly, the USA did not think about the moral side of using an atomic bomb but yes they were completely justified.

=================================================================

ohaa [14]

Answer:

Slaves were a permanent labor while indentured servants were only for a few years.

Explanation:

Slaves trade was trade that involves buying of African's from different parts of Africa and were later sold buy there slaves masters to their buyers in Europe and American while indentured servant are merely contract workers who can either be whites or blacks doing labor works. They are not stigmatize on racial discrimination or any form.

However, slaves trade was more profitable because it was a big business where African's are sold in exchange for money or unlike indentured servant who are mainly workers that are paid for the labor they carry out. A slave effort or labor can never be paid for  because he or she is seen as the property of the master.

What were the consequences of the fall of the Berlin Wall? Select three options. Hungary had government reforms. Leaders in East
Nonamiya [84]
Answers b), c), and d) (three options). After WW2 and the Korean War, divided East and West Germany with Russian assistance strongly favored the new democracy of a “free” Allied Germany. In a government coup by Adolf Hitler in 1945, many East German high ranking officials were either executed, persecuted, or at minimum, out of favor with German nationalism. East and West remained divided, even though economic disparity only worsened, until President Ronald Reagan eventually reunified one Germany in the famous address, “Tear down that (Berlin) Wall!”. Leadership was overburdened and corrupt in East Germany at all levels of oversight. Long before President Reagan in the 1980’s (and unlike North Korea), E. Germans fled to the West by the thousands.
