What were the military and political turning points of the war?


General Ulysses S. Grant was promoted and brought east in 1864 to achieve the final defeat of Robert E. Lee and the Confederacy. Identify the concept on which Grant’s strategy to finally defeat the Confederacy and Lee was based.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Military point: Battle of Gettysburg

Political point: 1864 Election: When. Abraham Lincoln won the Presidency

The concept was based on the Total siege of all southern coast

Explanation:

The Military turning point during the American Civil War was at the Battle of Gettysburg. This is a battle in which the Confederacy armies led by General Lee were halted by the Union and it stopped the advance of the Confederacy. Thereby Confederacy's chance of winning the war through military means took a turn.

Also, during the 1864 presidential election, Abraham Lincoln won against McClellan who appears to be in support of Southern slavery ideals and philosophy.

However when McClellan lost the election the hope of the Confederacy was dashed.

The concept on which Grant’s strategy to finally defeat the Confederacy and Lee was based on "Total siege of all southern coast." This drained the resources of the Confederacy armies under General Lee.

XYZ Affair

Explanation:

XYZ affair was a conflict that arose between France and the United States because the French people were not happy with the fact that the U.S reached an agreement (Jay Treaty) with Britain. This event happened from 1798 to 1800. To restore peace between the nations, President John Adams sent three representatives to France.

To their dismay, they were told by French middlemen, namely, Nicholas Hubbard, Jean Hottinguer (X), Pierre Bellamy (Y), and Lucien Hauteval (Z)  that before they could see the Foreign affairs minister, they had to pay a loan and bribe. John Adams made the statement above when presenting the matter to congress. He termed those middlemen XYZ.

The US experienced which of the following after WWII?

A.

B.
An economic boom.

C.
A rise in suburbs

D.
All the above

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf D. \ All \ of \ the \ above}}[/tex]

Explanation:

Prior to World War II, the United States was amid a severe economic turndown, known as the Great Depression.

The war actually helped lift the country out of recession by boosting jobs and manufacturing to create all the materials needed for war. This propelled the nation into an economic boom.

As soldiers returned home from war and people became hopeful for the economy and future, they began having children. This led to a phenomenon called the baby boom.

More children were born, families grew, and people wanted to settle down. New housing was required, and the perfect location was the suburbs. They were in between the crowded, bustling cities and the remote countryside, plus they attracted people with affordable homes.

So, post-war, the US experienced a baby boom, economic boom, and suburb boom. Therefore, all answer are correct.

True

False

Answers

Answer:n October 1, 1949, Chinese Communist leader Mao Zedong declared the creation of the People’s Republic of China (PRC). The announcement ended the costly full-scale civil war between the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and the Nationalist Party, or Kuomintang (KMT), which broke out immediately following World War II and had been preceded by on and off conflict between the two sides since the 1920’s. The creation of the PRC also completed the long process of governmental upheaval in China begun by the Chinese Revolution of 1911. The “fall” of mainland China to communism in 1949 led the United States to suspend diplomatic ties with the PRC for decades.

C. The Romans invaded Judea and forced the Jews to scatter.
D. The Exodus from Egypt allowed the Israelites to return to Canaan.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is option C "The Romans invaded Judea and forced the Jews to scatter"

Explanation:

The occasion that caused Yohanan ben Zakkai to begin a school for rabbis was the Roman attack of Judea which powers the Jews to disperse.

At the point when the Romans attacked his city, Zakkai conversed with Roman General Vespasian. He disclosed to Vespasian that he had a fantasy in which he saw Vespasian turning into the Sovereign of Rome. After he informed him regarding the prescience, Zakkai requested that Vespasian let him have a school for rabbis to show the Tora in Yavneh. Vespasian disclosed to him that if the prediction was valid, he would permit him to do as such. One year after, Vespasian became ruler and he permitted Zakkai to have his school.

Which defines an amendment?
A: a change to a constitution
B: a rejection of a proposed bill
C: a vote on accepting a constitution
D: an override of a veto

Answers

Answer:

A.

Explanation:

A. A change to a constitution  

Answer:

its d

Explanation:

The power of the President to refuse to approve a bill or joint resolution and thus prevent its enactment into law is the veto. The president has ten days (excluding Sundays) to sign a bill passed by Congress. A regular veto occurs when the President returns the legislation to the house in which it originated, usually with a message explaining the rationale for the veto. This veto can be overridden only by a two-thirds vote in both the Senate and the House. If this occurs, the bill becomes law over the President's objections. A pocket veto occurs when Congress adjourns during the ten-day period. The president cannot return the bill to Congress. The president's decision not to sign the legislation is a pocket veto and Congress does not have the opportunity to override.
