How does the two – party system influence American democracy? Why do people so strongly identify with their parties? Would this hinder any chances at newer parties forming?
Answer:
Two-party systems are prominent in various countries, such as the U.S., and contain both advantages and disadvantages.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Key Points
The advantages of a two party system are that they tend to be less extreme, support policies that appeal to a broader segment of the population, and generally more stable.
The disadvantages of a two party system are that they tend to ignore alternative views, stifle debate, and may not promote inter-party compromise but simply partisan appeals to the population.
Third parties can and do exist in two-party system, however, they do not wield very much influence.
Key Terms
two-party system: A two-party system is a system in which two major political parties dominate voting in nearly all elections at every level of government and, as a result, the majority of elected offices are members of one of the two major parties.
Winner-Takes-All: The winner-takes-all voting system allows only a single winner for each possible legislative seat and is sometimes termed a plurality voting system or single-winner voting system
A two-party system is a system in which two major political parties dominate voting in nearly all elections at every level of government and the majority of elected offices are members of one of the two major parties. Under a two-party system, one party typically holds a majority in the legislature and is usually referred to as the majority party while the other is the minority party. The United States is an example of a two-party system in which the majority of elected officials are either Democrats or Republicans.
The modern political party system in the U.S. is a two-party system dominated by the Democratic Party and the Republican Party. These two parties have won every United States presidential election since 1852 and have controlled the United States Congress to some extent since at least 1856. However, the political party system did not develop until tax reform. The First Party System of the United States featured the Federalist Party and the Democratic-Republican Party (Anti-Federalist). In 1829, the Second Party System saw a split of the Democratic-Republican Party into the Jacksonian Democrats, who grew into the modern Democratic Party, led by Andrew Jackson, and the Whig Party, led by Henry Clay. The Third Party System stretched from 1854 to the mid-1890s, and was characterized by the emergence of the anti-slavery Republican Party, which adopted many of the economic policies of the Whigs, such as national banks, railroads, high tariffs, homesteads and aid to land grant colleges. The Fourth Party System, 1896 to 1932, retained the same primary parties as the Third Party System, but saw major shifts in the central issues of debate. This period also corresponded to the Progressive Era, and was dominated by the Republican Party. The Fifth Party System emerged with the New Deal Coalition beginning in 1933. The Republicans began losing support after the Great Depression, giving rise to Democratic President Franklin D. Roosevelt and the activist New Deal. Experts debate whether this era ended in the mid-1960s when the New Deal coalition did, the early 1980s when the Moral Majority and the Reagan coalition were formed, the mid-1990s during the Republican Revolution, or continues to the present. Since the 1930s, the Democrats positioned themselves more towards Liberalism while the Conservatives increasingly dominated the GOP.
Causes
There are several reason two major parties often dominate the political landscape in some systems. In the U.S., forty-eight states have a standard winner-takes-all electoral system for amassing presidential votes in the Electoral College system. The winner–takes–all principle applies in presidential elections, thus if a presidential candidate gets the most votes in any particular state, all of the electoral votes from that state are awarded to the candidate. In all but Maine and Nebraska, the presidential candidate must win a plurality of votes to wins all of the electoral votes; this practice is called the unit rule.
There are two main reasons winner–takes–all systems lead to a two-party system. First, the weaker parties are pressured to form an alliance, sometimes called a fusion, attempting to become big enough to challenge a large dominant party and, in so doing, gain political clout in the legislature. Second, voters learn, over time, not to vote for candidates outside of one of the two large parties since their votes for third party candidates are usually ineffectual. Therefore, weaker parties are eliminated by the voters over time. The gravitation of voters towards one of the two main parties is called polarization.

1. What British victory helped turn the corner for the Allies in North Africa?
2. Why did the Allies decide to invade Sicily?
3. What happened to Mussolini after the fall of Rome?
4. Why did George Marshall not go to Europe?
5. What location did the Allies fake the Germans into believing that the D-Day landing would take place?
6. Why did Hitler refuse to send reinforcements to
Normandy?
Answer:
1. The Allied victory in North Africa destroyed or neutralized nearly 900,000 German and Italian troops, opened a second front against the Axis, permitted the invasion of Sicily and the Italian mainland in the summer of 1943, and removed the Axis threat to the oilfields of the Middle East and to British supply lines to
2. The Allies decided to move next against Italy, hoping an Allied invasion would remove that fascist regime from the war, secure the central Mediterranean and divert German divisions from the northwest coast of France where the Allies planned to attack in the near future.
3. The fall of the Fascist regime in Italy, also known in Italy as 25 Luglio (Venticinque Luglio, pronounced [ˌventiˈtʃiŋkwe ˈluʎʎo]; Italian for "25 July"), came as a result of parallel plots led respectively by Count Dino Grandi and King Victor Emmanuel III during the spring and summer of 1943, culminating with a successful vote of no confidence against the Prime Minister Benito Mussolini at the meeting of the Grand Council of Fascism on 24–25 July 1943. As a result, a new government was established, putting an end to the 21 years of Fascist rule in the Kingdom of Italy, and Mussolini was placed under arrest.
4.Stalin believed that economic integration with the West would allow Eastern Bloc countries to escape Soviet control, and that the U.S. was trying to buy a pro-U.S. realignment of Europe. Stalin therefore prevented Eastern Bloc nations from receiving Marshall Plan aid.
5.In the months and weeks before D-Day, the Allies carried out a massive deception operation intended to make the Germans think the main invasion target was Pas-de-Calais (the narrowest point between Britain and France) rather than Normandy.

Why did the U.S. fail to win the Vietnam War?
Answer:
America “lost” South Vietnam because it was an artificial construct created in the wake of the French loss of Indochina. Because there never was an “organic” nation of South Vietnam, when the U.S. discontinued to invest military assets into that construct, it eventually ceased to exist. Hope this helps^_^
Explanation:
plz give brainliest and rating
Answer:
As others have stated, the US didn't lose the Vietnam War in the traditional sense. A peace was negotiated by Kissinger and the N.Vietnamese representatives in Geneva, after neither side was seeing progress. The US then pulled itself fully out of S.Vietnam after the Fall of Saigon: the embassy was taken, and many, many diplomats and refugees were airlifted to the USS Midway.
The reasons for the failure of the US in the war are numerous, however.
Firstly, let us look at US military itself. Having not learnt from the French defeat at Diem Bien Phu in 1954, US troops were poorly trained for guerilla warfare; most training happened over a few weeks in Texas or Alabama, hardly representative of the Vietnamese jungle. Of the 2.8 million troops who served, 2 million were conscripted; in the end over 500,000 soldiers deserted, and most were unwilling to fight-only 10% ever saw combat. Due to the lack of career soldiers and the yearly 'tour of duty' only 6% of deaths happened in the final three months, as troops tried to stay clear of danger. By comparison, due to their inexperience, 43% of deaths occurred in the first three months of duty, which was not helped by the reception the 'cherries' received from their fellow men. If they survived, drug abuse was rife: in 1971 5000 men were admitted to hospital for combat wounds, but 20,000 for drug abuse. Officers were not liked either: 3% were killed by their own troops.

What countries comprised the Triple Entente?
Great Britain, France, Spain
Germany, Austria-Hungary, Italy
France, Great Britain, Russia
Russia, France, Germany
Answer:
France, Great Britain, Russia
The countries that comprised the Triple Entente are France, Great Britain and Russia. The correct option is c.
What is Triple Entente?The Triple Entente describes the informal understanding between the Russian Empire, the French Third Republic, and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland as well as Romania, which joined later. It was built upon the Franco-Russian Alliance of 1894, the Entente Cordiale of 1904 between Paris and London, and the Anglo-Russian Entente of 1907. It formed a powerful counterweight to the Triple Alliance of Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Italy. The Triple Entente, unlike the Triple Alliance or the Franco-Russian Alliance itself, was not an alliance of mutual defence.
The Franco-Japanese Treaty of 1907 was a key part of building a coalition as France took the lead in creating alliances with Japan, Russia, and with Britain. Japan wanted to raise a loan in Paris, so France made the loan contingent on a Russo-Japanese agreement and a Japanese guarantee for France's strategically vulnerable possessions in Indochina. Britain encouraged the Russo-Japanese rapprochement.
Thus was built the Triple Entente coalition that fought World War I.

What U.S. action at Pearl Harbor ended up helping the Japanese?
The United States had not installed radar at Pearl Harbor.
The U.S. aircraft carriers assigned to Pearl Harbor were not present when the attack occurred.
The U.S. had its ships and planes lined up, making them easy targets for Japanese aircraft.
The United States had no intelligence network in the Pacific.
Answer: The U.S. Was Trying to Stop Japan's Global Expansion
In September 1940, Japan signed the Tripartite Pact with Germany and Italy, the two fascist regimes then at war with the Allies. Tokyo and Washington negotiated for months leading up to the Pearl Harbor attack, without success .please mark me branlist
