Answer:

This is part of a radio speech delivered by President Roosevelt in December 1940 (this was the second year in WWII, and the US was still neutral in the conflict).

He aimed to convince the audience about the necessity of ensuring a safe defense strategy for Great Britain, so that they were able to avoid the German invasion and resist the many attacks they were suffering.

Apart from the ideological fight against nazism, Roosevelt highlighted how if GB fell, the last territory in the Atlantic, before reaching the US, would have been conquered. That would pose a direct threat on the US. Therefore, he supported the idea that GB should remain free at any cost.

Answer:

In the first section of his Four Freedoms Speech, President Franklin Roosevelt attempted to put into historical context the dangers of fascism and the ongoing conflicts overseas to the United States. World War Two was already in full swing in Europe and Asia and it was clear to him and many others that the United States could not stay neutral for much longer. However, there were still many that hoped that the United States could stay out of the conflict. With only a few exceptions the country had avoided what George Washington had called "foreign entanglements" in the past. Roosevelt wanted to make it clear that this situation was something unprecedented in world history. That is why he traced the country's history to illustrate the extreme circumstances that faced the United States.

Why did the mongols likely attack via this waterway in the 13th century
AysviL [449]
The Mongols, infuriated that the Song were trying to leech of their success, declared war on Song in 1235 AD. By 1248 AD, when the Mongols and the Song negotiated a ceasefire (ending the First Phase of the war), the only major gains the Mongols had were Chengdu.

At the same time, the Mongols had sent a sizable force between 20,000–35,000 men to conquer the Rus’, which was achieved through direct conquest of certain states and vassalization of the rest. While the Mongols viewed the Chinese as formidable opponents, they didn’t take them as a serious threat to their rule in Northern China and sent a portion of their troops to destroy Russia. While the Russians were also strong opponents, they didn’t have nearly as much experience fighting nomadic warriors as the Chinese had, for the Chinese had spent the last millennium trying to resist the nomadic horsemen who constantly raided their northern provinces. They also lacked the numbers that Song China could produce.

By 1241 AD, as the majority of the Mongol army and its Chinese conscripts waged war against the Song, the Hungarians fielded their entire army at Mohi to confront the Mongol host that was rampaging through Europe. At Mohi, the Mongols cut down tens of thousands by hailing arrow storms down on Hungarian infantry and knights.

One of the main reasons why the Mongols invaded Europe while still fighting China was because of the type of warfare the Chinese waged. Chinese defenders tend to stay behind the walls of their castles and avoided directly engaging the Mongols unless they were on the offense and tried to avoid exhausting themselves. The Europeans, who never had dealt with nomadic warriors since the Magyar invasion of the 900s, had no idea what to do and got slaughtered. For the Mongols, the initial invasion of Europe was a cakewalk due to European inexperience to deal with the Mongols.

Hope that helped!
