The Progressive Era was PRIMARILY concerned with making government responsible for the needs of the people. The correct option among all the options given in the question is option "a". This was the era when people with their movements were able to remove several corrupt government officials from their office and improve their lives.
The correct answer is C) the United States.
The nation that the director feared might use the weapon they had developed against the Soviet Union was the United States.
The quote of the Director referred in the question is the following: "When we succeed in resolving this problem, we felt relief, even happiness-for in possessing such a weapon, we had removed the possibility of its being used against the USRR with impunity."
It was said by the Director of the Testing in the Soviet Union. Laboratory
We are referring to the Cold War years that confronted the United States and the Soviet Union in many aspects such as the arms race to construct nuclear weapons or the spread of Communism by the Soviet Union or the measures by the United States to stop it.
Let's look at our options. A is obviously not the answer. The great depression is remembered for causing great factory closures and high unemployment, and we are looking for what is NOT the direct result. B is possible. Farming was an alternative to city work, so many went to the dust bowl and farmed it to oblivion, making their situation worse. However, people started moving west long before the depression. C is another obvious no. The depression made many lose their jobs and basically eliminated the middle class, making the gap between the very rich and the very poor much bigger. Obvious result of the depressionD is your best answer probably. The original prohibition amendment was in effect form 1920 until 1933, and the depression didn't start until 1929. Therefore, the amendment which was passed to enact Prohibition would have had nothing to do with the great depression. The amendment which later repealed prohibition was mostly attributed to the fact that it had failed. Crime was worse (mobs and mobsters like al capone), people drank anyway, and the government could not practically enforce it. I suppose you could say that the government no longer had the money to enforce it by the end because of the depression, but the government was struggling in that long before the stock market crashed in '29. I would go with D, as it fits best.
The correct option is C). The court did not recognize the Cherokee tribe as a sovereign nation that's why US Supreme Court refuse to hear the 1831 Cherokee Nation v. Georgia case.
<h3>Why did the US Supreme Court refuse to hear the 1831 Cherokee Nation v. Georgia case?</h3>

The Court that the Cherokees were not a sovereign and independent nation and disagreed with the argument that the Cherokee Nation was a “foreign state” as that term was intended in the U.S. Constitution.
Therefore, US Supreme Court refused to hear the case.
