A proxy war is a conflict that involves two countries or more using lesser countries to fight each other. One of the most famous proxy wars in the cold war took place in Vietnam. Beginning in 1955 and ending in 1975, it was a grueling war that saw the Americans withdraw from the conflict. The Americans launched hundreds of firebombing and herbicide campaigns, making the Vietnamese citizens suffer. North Vietnam had a Communist regime backed by the U.S.S.R, while the south was backed by the Capitalist U.S.A. The Americans sent about 2,700,000 troops to fight the North. About 58,000 Americans were lost. As many as 2,000,000 civilians on both North and South died, and 1,100,000 North Vietnamese and Viet Cong fighters died in action.  The war ultimately resulted in a Communist victory, and Vietnam was reunited as a Communist country.

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

1) identify one cause of the historical development depicted in the map

A cause of the historical development depicted in the map (the industrial revolution) was the discovery of large sources of coal in Northern England, which were not very deep, something that made them relatively easy to dig out.

This coal provided a significant source of energy to the factories that would be established in the following years.

2) identify one effect of the historical development depicted in the map

An effect of the industrial revolution was the fast growth of several cities in Northern England, which had been, up until that time, small villages. These cities grew because hordes of workers from the countryside emigrated there to work in the factories.

The main cities that grew around the time of the Industrial Revolution are: Manchester, Liverpool, Birimingham, Leeds, Sheffield, New Castle, and Middlesbourgh.
