Summarize why the U.S. was afraid of invading mainland Japan.

History
1 answer:
kvv77 [185]3 years ago

Answer: Would have led to more loss of life.

Explanation:

President Truman believed that dropping the atomic bombs saved both American and Japanese lives because a battle on mainland Japan would have been devastating.

He is supported in this stance by the fierce resistance of the Japanese on islands closer to the mainland such as Okinawa. With over a million more Japanese soldiers waiting on the mainland as well as thousands of Kamikaze pilots, resistance on the Japanese mainland was going to be very brutal and would potentially have cost millions of lives, both civilian and military.

Truman therefore believed that dropping the atomic bombs would cause the Japanese to surrender and save both nations the massive loss of life.

Nubia provided each of the following items to the Egyptians except __________.
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

B. Papyrus

Explanation:

Egypt and Nubia were bordering with each other, so naturally they traded between each other. The Nubians had their empire located in a position through which the trade between sub-Saharan Africa and North Africa was going on. Sub-Saharan Africa had lot of attractive goods to offer, the Nubians were able to acquire them, and since they were demanded by the Egyptians, they were selling those goods to them. Some of the things that the Nubians provided for the Egyptians were Ivory, ebony, animal skins, and exotic animals as pets, precious metals etc. The papyrus was not one of the things that the Nubians provided to the Egyptians though, as the Egyptians had it in abundance so they were cultivating it by themselves.
