Why is gas warfare drawing so much attention?

History
1 answer:
dimaraw [331]3 years ago

Answer:

Explanation:

When the Germans unleashed clouds of toxic chlorine at Ypres in April 1915, the first large gas attack grabbed a lot of attention during WWI. At Ypres, the gas produced extensive panic and confusion among the British and Canadian forces, as well as widespread panic and confusion among the French colonial troops. International law currently prohibits the use and possession of chemical weapons. Despite a widespread prohibition on the use of chemical weapons and international attempts to eliminate existing stockpiles, numerous countries continue to pursue active chemical weapons programs. The blister agent utilized in the combat was sulfur mustard, more commonly known as mustard gas. Personnel were targeted and exposed to blister agents such as sulfur mustard or lewisite, resulting in casualties. Such weapons, which are delivered in liquid or vapour form, burn the skin, eyes, windpipe, and lungs.

Nosotros ________ a Pablo. Sabemos concemos
Pepsi [2]
Nosotros CONOCEMOS a Pablo.

The answer is this because CONOCEMOS comes from the word CONOCER meaning to know. CONOCEMOS means WE KNOW in Spanish. In this case, CONOCEMOS means WE KNOW (A PERSON) while SABEMOS means WE KNOW (SOMETHING). So, the answer is CONOCEMOS because in this case, it's a PERSON we know and NOT A THING/SOMETHING.

What event showed the U.S that the Articles of Confederation were not good?
guajiro [1.7K]

<em>Shay's Rebellion</em>

Explanation:

The Articles of Confederation was the first constitution for the United States. It is known for being very weak and giving little to no power to the national government. With the Articles of Confederation, the government could not regulate trade, draft soldiers, create and enforce laws properly, tax citizens, and other important matters.

Since the national government was so powerless, most of the power was in the hands of the people and the states. This meant that it was hard to keep people in check, which eventually caused Shay's Rebellion.

Shay's Rebellion was an uprise of farmers who did not want to lose their property and opposed high taxing. Courts were trying to take away their property, as many poor farmers could not pay their taxes. This caused many farmers to revolt, causing a few casualties. This proved the national government was too weak under the Articles of Confederation, as they could do nothing to stop this.
