Answer:
The answer is C.
Explanation:
The First Opium War took place from 1839 to 1842. It faced the Qing Dynasty and the British Empire, and broke out as a result of the differences between both countries regarding opium trafficking, as the Chinese wanted to prohibit this activity, that was very profitable for the British. The war began with the British Expeditionary Fleet shelling Guangdong Kowloon and finally defeating the Qing Dynasty, ending with the signing of the Treaty of Nanking, which granted European powers free access to Chinese ports. This war was the first large-scale war initiated by Western countries against China. The war opened the door to China's retreat, and marked the beginning of China's modern history.
Answer:
Of the options provided, Cuba is the correct answer.
Explanation:
The Cuban economy is largely planned and the government owns and operates most of the major industries. During the Cold War period Cuba was highly dependent on subsidies from the Soviet Union, but after the Soviet Union was dissolved in 1991 the Communist Party of Cuba encouraged the population to form worker co-operatives and to seek out forms of self-employment. Although there has been some recent opening to certain forms of investment, it is still largely restricted and requires government approval. The government sets most prices for commodities and essential items and can ration goods that are in short supply. Housing and transportation costs remain low thanks to government control and essentials like education, healthcare, and food are subsidized by the government.
If the Constitution had not been ratified the United States would not be the way it is now. Our rights that we have today are protected by the Constitution and if it had not been ratified we could not have been guaranteed the life that we have now (which most people around the globe wish to have.) The Constitution is a major part of U.S history and if it were not ratified the history of this country would have changed completely. Congress would have been working for the governments best interest and not the citizens' best interest. I also think that if the Constitution was never ratified, the U.S would have split into two separate nations- North and South. The North would have continued in the industry world while the South would have chosen the world of agriculture.
