Answer
The Industrialists
Explanation
The late 19th century identified John D.Rockefeller and Andrew Carnegie as leading industrialists who transformed the American business practices from the unregulated federal government system to form that concentrated power into them. Through this process, industrialists were able to dominate the industry and limit competition. This was accomplished through development of pools, trusts, mergers and holding companies.
<u>Comparison and contrast of Great Britain and Germany prepared their military forces for war:</u>
On 4th August 1914, Britain entered World War I when the King declared war on Germany after the expiry of an ultimatum.
- The Allied Command thought the bunkers were short term and therefore did not make too much effort to consolidate its position or make its troops much more comfortable.
-
The German Command, however, had realized that they would remain in Flanders and Northern France for several years after their assault on the West Front had failed. They have also made considerable strides to build strong defensive positions.
-
Another explanation for the German response being remarkable and unprecedented was that the German imperial army was invading Belgium towards France, which implied Kaiser's army was up and up on the ridges, while the English and French armies were in the lowlands of the valleys with water levels about 20 cm below the surface.
-
The Allies, bolstered by American forces, had a hard time getting the formidable defences of the German war machinery, later in the war, whenever the Germans withdrew to the Hindenburg line (called after the head of German general staff, Paul von Hindenburg).
