What was one benefit of the Allied forces' taking control of North Africa?
A, From there, they could move to invade Italy.
B, From there, they could stop japanese advances.
C, North Africa was the site of prisoner of war camps.
D, The Allies could moe into the Middle East from North Africa.

Answers

Answer 1

AND THE ANSWER IS!!! A!

Let me explain why the other options do not work.

B - does not work because Japanese advances were in the far east, too far away to have any significant presence in Africa, if at all.

C - does not work because POW camps weren't even in Africa, they were usually in Germany itself, Poland and perhaps Austria.

D - does not work because the middle east wasn't a significant player at the time, in fact it was hardly involved at all.

Option A is correct - Because we had the Sicily invasion shortly thereafter, and invaded Italy, unfortunately, we did face a disastrous defeat at Kasserine Pass...

Answer:

The Piano Essay Research paper

Explanation:

The piano when invented changed the way music was written, and even created new forms of music. Its invention ushered in new eras and gave people a sense of worth. But this change did not take place overnight, it took many years of hard work and labor to achieve what the piano is today.

The History of the Piano

   In 1698 a man named Bartolomeo Cristofori began to design an instrument, which would play both loudness and softness and be able to use an excellent range of dynamics unlike the popular instrument of the day the harpsichord. For years he worked on the instrument that would not only take over the harpsichord?s place in music, but also change how music was written and composed. Maybe one of the most influential instruments we will ever know. In 1709 he finally finished this instrument and named it the gravicembalo col piano e forte (harpsichord with loudness or softness), which was later know, as the pianoforte. This was the first instrument in which composers could effectively display their emotions.

     Cristofori faced many problems in the creation of he piano. First he developed a system in which the player could to only hit one of the two strings for each note (una corda). He also developed an effective mechanism to use downward pressure (striking the key) and make it project the hammer towards the strings. He also had to time the hammer?s striking the key directly proportionate to when the sound should be heard, with this improvement came another which is vital to the pianos inner workings, the escapement. The escapement is a device that lets the hammer strike the string and leave the string free to vibrate. The hammer is made to fall back and let the string vibrate, when the player let go of the key a damper would then fall on the string stopping the sound. Though Cristofori?s pianos were softer than the harpsichord they still had a much wider dynamic range. Cristofori produced his earliest surviving piano in 1720, and his last in 1726, 5 years later he dies in 1731.

Once news got around that Cristofori has designed the piano many instrument makers began building pianos. The organ builder Gottfried Silbermann (who developed the prellmechanik-rebound rail) built a piano and showed it to Bach who did not like it because the high notes were poor and the keys too heavy. So Slibermann redesigned his piano and got a much more pleasing result from Bach.

As the seven-year war purged Germany of its musical minds, so the French revolution drove those in France to England, which by now was the piano production capital of the world. One French piano maker, Sebastien Erard contributed enormously to the construction of the piano. The first was his double escapement which allowed a key to be played twice in a row without fully releasing the key. Making the note quick and easy to play(Later improved by Henri Herz). This, when applied to the grand piano, helped his company (the Erard Company) to compete with other companies such as ; Cleminti( collard and collard), Tompkinson and Broadwood.

With the rise of the Romantic Movement in the 19th century the piano endured much wear and tear, composers would go through one piano each performance because the strings would snap and many other problems would arise. So a solution had to be found. It soon came from Broadwood, who developed a way for the tension to be released from the strings by putting iron spacers between the pin block and the belly rail where the high plate is attached. But that did not totally solve the problem. Overstringing, invented by Steinway and sons, also helped. This was done by running bass strings diagonally over treble strings.

How the piano is made

Strings This is the part of the piano in which controls volume and the strength of the piano. The strings are chosen wisely by the maker, either thick for strength or thin for high pitch. The main thing they must always remember is that the strings are withstanding up to 30 tons of pressure. The strings therefore are usually made of carbon steel and are thick or thin according to the level of pitched.

After all the piano has gone through people are still trying to improve it, I personally think that it is at its peak and anything electronic would only take away from the classical skill and craftsmanship which is required to build it. There will always be a demand for the traditional high quality classical style of the piano, but that is only a part of the market as sales of pianos shrink manufacturers are bound to experiment with bolder designs. Many will dismiss these as gimmicks, but if they stimulate interests and sales they are helping to secure the instruments future.

Answers

Answer: Southern and Western Congressmen whose nationalistic rhetoric took on belligerent tones against Britain

Explanation:

During the Napoleonic Wars, the British and the French imposed several measures on American trade in order to keep America from trading with either the French or the British as both were at war with each other. The British went so far as to forcibly recruit American sailors into British ranks.

America was humiliated and led to the rise of "War Hawk" Congressmen from the South and the West who called for war with Britain. Their constant lobbying for this war contributed in no small part to the War of 1812 against the British.

Answers

Answer:

After 133 B.C.E..the republican form of government broke down and resulted in a series of civil wars which ended with Octavian defeating Mark Anthony and Cleopatra.

I am unsure of the options but it was Octavian's victory over Mark Anthony and Cleopatra in Egypt that ended the Roman Republic Civil wars.

From 133 B.C.E, the Roman Republic saw various civil wars as men like Sulla, Julius Caesar and Octavian vied for control of the Republic over various generations.

Sulla was made dictator after his civil wars and so was Julius Caesar after he defeated Pompey. Caesar was then killed by Brutus and other senators who fled as Ocatavian and Mark Anthony hunted them and their armies down to avenge Caesar.

Mark Anthony and Octavian fell out afterwards and another civil war began that ended with Octavian defeating Mark Anthony and Cleopatra and taking over Egypt as his personal property.

This marked the end of the Roman Republic as Octavian became Augustus, the first emperor of Rome.

"" good morning what is illuminati?? ""​

Answers

Answer:

The Illuminati is a name given to several groups, both real and fictitious. Historically, the name usually refers to the Bavarian Illuminati, an Enlightenment-era secret society founded on 1 May 1776 in Bavaria, today part of Germany. The society's goals were to oppose superstition, obscurantism, religious influence over public life, and abuses of state power. "The order of the day," they wrote in their general statutes, "is to put an end to the machinations of the purveyors of injustice, to control them without dominating them." The Illuminati—along with Freemasonry and other secret societies—were outlawed through edict by Charles Theodore, Elector of Bavaria, with the encouragement of the Catholic Church, in 1784, 1785, 1787, and 1790. During subsequent years, the group was generally vilified by conservative and religious critics who claimed that the Illuminati continued underground and were responsible for the French Revolution.

Answers

Answer:

Revolutions are complex processes that emerge from the social order becoming frayed in many areas at once. There are five elements that create an unstable social equilibrium: economic or fiscal strain, alienation and opposition among the elites, widespread popular anger at injustice, a persuasive shared narrative of resistance, and favorable international relations. Revolutions have both structural and transient causes; structural causes are long-term and large-scale trends that undermine existing social institutions and relationships and transient causes are contingent events, or actions by particular individuals or groups, that reveal the impact of longer term trends and often galvanize revolutionary oppositions to take further action.

Explanation: Although the French and American people had several distinct and differing motives for revolting against their ruling governments, some similar causes led to both revolutions, including the following: Economic struggles: Both the Americans and French dealt with a taxation system they found discriminating and unfair.
