History

Elanso [62]3 years ago

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.

What is one of the key indicators of primates' adaptability?
boyakko [2]
It's interesting that you posted your question in the history section of Brainly.  It qualifies in the category of "Big History," as some have termed it.  That term was coined by the scholar David Christian, whom I met once at a conference where he was a presenter.  His idea was that we look at "history" not just as what has happened in the recorded records of human beings, but look back at all that has occurred in the history of the universe.  So the "Big History" concept incorporates the story of evolution into its account of things.

As far as your specific question, a key indicator of primates' adaptability is that you see primates living in all sorts of different regions on the planet.  Snow monkeys live in cold regions of Japan where snow covers the ground many months of the year.  Howler monkeys live in the tropical rainforests of Brazil.  And there are other primates of all sorts in all sorts of climates and conditions.  That shows the adaptability of primates to survive and thrive in various circumstances.

What is the benefit to constitutional democracies when term limits on the executive are established?
Svetach [21]

Answer:

The main benefit that constitutional democracies represent when time limits are established for the mandates of political representatives is that alternations are guaranteed. Thus, the generation of lifetime mandates by presidents, governors, etc., is avoided, guaranteeing the inexistence of cult of personalities within government, and preventing the formation of autocratic governments based on these cults.
