Punish for aggressive acts--the trials were an international means of punishing those involved in violent and unjust acts leading to and during World War II.

German trials in Nuremberg, Germany and Japanese trials in Tokyo, Japan.

Holding the trials in the countries of the Axis Powers demonstrated the power of the Allies over the defeated countries, but also put the leadership on display in their home countries to work as a deterrent for supporters of the defeated governments.

Solution 2

Answer:

Both attracted followers partly because of the global spread of mass entertainment

Explanation:

The largest religion in the US is Christianity, about 78.4% of the population is Christian. Traditionally most Americans are Protestant 51% of the population. Christianity was introduced during the period of European colonization and is still a very influential religion that attracts many believers. Christianity in the United States attracted followers in part because of the global spread of mass entertainment, which influenced people and claimed that Christianity was the right religion to follow.

On the other hand, in the last two decades, Islamism has been strengthening. The faithful to this religion propose the interaction between the religious precepts of Islam and those of the state. Similar to US Christianity, Islam attracted followers in part because of the global spread of mass entertainment, where it promoted a different alternative to known religions and attracted people through its philosophy.

Question

What factors led to Mao Zedong's victory in China?

Solution 1

Mao Zedong's men were more skillful in military planning and they were able to lead the Kuomintang into territory not familiar to the latter. They looked for weakness in the troop movements and attacked with great determination. During the war with the Japanese, Mao and the Kuomintang (KMT) agreed to a ceasefire. While the KMT absorbed most of the losses fighting in the North, Mao in the south had few casualties. At the end of the war with the Japanese, Mao and his Red Army had amassed a wealth of Japanese Arms. Meanwhile, the Soviet Union had captured Manchuria and Mao and his army were given refuge there when the civil war continued. The KMT could not follow Mao into Manchuria. Mao already had the support of the peasants by this time. The KMT agreed to a ceasefire as suggested by the United States so that there could be peace talks. Mao and his army used this time to regroup and they were finally able to defeat the KMT. In October of 1949, Mao announced the People's Republic of China while Chiang and his remaining followers fled to Taiwan.

Solution 2

There are many reasons why Mao was able to become powerful and significant in Chinese politics. Mao was well educated in political matters. He was also a good military strategist and nationalist. He was able to unifiy China and fight the imperialist powers that wanted influence over the region. He also encouraged education for both women and men. China saw a great period of industrialization under his rule, and the economy of the nation improved greatly. All of these characteristics and accomplishments made him popular among the public.

However, Mao was also able to become powerful because he silenced or disappeared all those who opposed him. He was able to become the absolute leader of the nation and crush opposition. Moreover, his use of propaganda made him well-known and popular all over the country.

After accepting the Noble Prize in 1939 for his work with fission, Fermi traveled to New York to work in the Columbia University to work as a Professor of Physics and participated in the first fission experiment in the United States. With the support of the National Defense Research Committee, Fermi researched nuclear chain reaction. Then he moved to the University of Chicago and in 1944 Robert Oppenheimer hired him to the Manhattan Project in Los Alamos.

(Let them eat cake.)

Question

The purpose of pull taxes in the southern states was to

Solution 1

Restrict the ability of African Americans to obtain voting rights.
The black community experienced much poverty because of prejudice against them in the economic system of the country, so poll taxes could keep them from going to the polls to vote.

Blacks also typically had less access to education than whites even after slavery was ended; thus their literacy rates were lower. So literacy tests were also used to restrict blacks from voting.

Southern states also utilized "grandfather clauses," which were exemptions to things like poll taxes and literacy tests, granted to those whose forefathers ("grandfathers") had full voting rights prior to the Civil War. So if there were poor or illiterate whites, they could vote freely while blacks (whose ancestors had been slaves) were subjected to the laws restricting their voting ability.
These sorts of restrictions against black voters prompted much of the activism of the civil rights movement that began in the middle of the 20th century.

Question

One reason india gained its independence from great britain in 1947 was that (1) great britain was defeated in world war ii (2) the treaty of versailles required great britain to give up its colonies (3) great britain did not have the resources to maintain an empire after world war ii (4) india had supported the axis powers during world war ii

Solution 1

The answer is 3) Great Britain did not have the resources to maintain an empire after World War II

Even though Britain was able to defeat Germany and the Axis powers in Europe, overall the Empire was in socioeconomic shambles.

The war had resulted in the destruction of hundreds of businesses and factories. London itself was bombarded and the many government officials operated from bunkers.

Millions of men had died and there was a lack of resources.

The government could do things, use the remaining reserves to either rebuild Great Britain or maintain the large Empire. At the end it was decided to give away the Empire and work on rebuilding Britain
