The main reason for the percentage increase in the United States defense spending in 1950 was <u>A.  the nuclear arms race ...</u>

<h3>What is Defense Spending?</h3>

Defense spending is the total budgeted expenditure for maintaining and equipping the United States armed forces.  It also includes the costs of developing and testing modern weapons for warfare.

<h3>Purpose of Defense Spending</h3>

The increased defense spending in 1950 was to counter the threats posed by communism hoisted on the world by the Soviet Union.

Thus, the increased defense spending in 1950, apart from the nuclear arms race with the Soviet Union, was not meant to:

  • Rebuild Japan's military forces.
  • Increase troops for the Korean War.
  • Finance the United Nations peace-keeping troops.

What are some old world history FLVS 2.03 charts?

1.       Pope Urban II: Emperor Alexis I Comnenus, in 1095, appealed to me for help in defending the Byzantine Empire. I took that opportunity, because I yearned for power over my church. My goal... to take back the Holy Land from the #Infidels we call Turks. I demand that all poor, sick, weak, rich, peasants, all of you to come to battle, and exterminate this vile race.

2.     Peter the Hermit: I have organized an army of both peasants, and soldiers. We will head to Constantinople as the People's Crusade! I have found that my Crusade has not gone as planned. We have met much opposition along the way and almost all of my Crusader's have died. #InPerril I will keep going until I meet the city of Jerusalem, and there I will give a sermon before the Crusader's take the city.

 

3.     William of Tyre: I returning to the Holy Land after much schooling and studies. It is now the year of 1165, and I am aspiring to be a religious official in the city of Tyre. I'm thinking about writing a book. #GonnaCallItTheHistoryOfDeedsDoneBeyondTheSeaAndHistoryOfJaruselam #Holla!

4.     Saladin: @RichardTheLionHeart  My people and I care more about Jerusalem than you think you do. This has always been our Holy Land. Do not think that my people will give up that easily. We are defending our land, not fighting for it. You are the aggressors! #NeverGive'nUp

 

 

5.        Richard the Lionheart: @Saladin … We are more alike than we are different. I am sure you are tired of the way this battle has turned out just as much as I am. Towns have been destroyed, people have been killed, and we are basically down to nothing. I will fight until the bitter end! #DeterminationRulz 

 

I am hoping that these answers have satisfied your queries and it will be able to help you in your endeavors, and if you would like, feel free to ask another question.
