Answer 1

Answer:

The Tet offensive of 1968 (Vietnamese: Sự kiện Tết Mậu Thân 1968), also called the general offensive and uprising of Tet Mau Than[15] (Vietnamese: Tổng tiến công và nổi dậy, Tết Mậu Thân 1968) was a major escalation and one of the largest military campaigns of the Vietnam War. It was launched on January 30, 1968 by forces of the Viet Cong (VC) and North Vietnamese People's Army of Vietnam (PAVN) against the forces of the South Vietnamese Army of the Republic of Vietnam (ARVN), the United States Armed Forces and their allies. It was a campaign of surprise attacks against military and civilian command and control centers throughout South Vietnam.[16] The name is the truncated version of the Lunar New Year festival name in Vietnamese, Tết Nguyên Đán.[17]

Explanation:

The offensive was launched prematurely in the late night hours of 30 January in the I and II Corps Tactical Zones of South Vietnam. This early attack allowed allied forces some time to prepare defensive measures. When the main operation began the next morning, the offensive was countrywide and well coordinated; eventually more than 80,000 PAVN/VC troops struck more than 100 towns and cities, including 36 of 44 provincial capitals, five of the six autonomous cities, 72 of 245 district towns, and the southern capital.[18] The offensive was the largest military operation conducted by either side up to that point in the war.

Hanoi had launched the offensive in the belief that it would trigger a popular uprising leading to the collapse of the South Vietnamese government. Although the initial attacks stunned the allies, causing them to lose control of several cities temporarily, they quickly regrouped, beat back the attacks, and inflicted heavy casualties on PAVN/VC forces. The popular uprising anticipated by Hanoi never happened. During the Battle of Huế, intense fighting lasted for a month, resulting in the destruction of the city. During their occupation, the PAVN/VC executed thousands of people in the Massacre at Huế. Around the U.S. combat base at Khe Sanh, fighting continued for two more months.

The offensive was a military defeat for North Vietnam. However this offensive had far reaching consequences due to its effect on the views of the Vietnam War by the American public. General Westmoreland reported that defeating the PAVN/VC would require 200,000 more American soldiers and activation of the reserves, prompting even loyal supporters of the war to see that the current war strategy required re-evaluation.[19] The offensive had a strong effect on the U.S. government and shocked the U.S. public, which had been led to believe by its political and military leaders that the North Vietnamese were being defeated and incapable of launching such an ambitious military operation; American public support for the war declined as a result of the Tet casualties and the ramping up of draft calls.[20] Subsequently, the U.S. sought negotiations to end the war.

The term "Tet offensive" usually refers to the January–February 1968 offensive, but it can also include the so-called "Mini-Tet" offensive that took place in May and the Phase III offensive in August, or the 21 weeks of unusually intense combat which followed the initial attacks in January.[21]

Answers

The League of Nations was the precursor to the United Nations. It was established in the Paris Peace Conference of 1919, and it was seen as a more civilized way for governments to settle differences or conflicts through negotiation and diplomacy. After WWI, the world saw how destructive the new technology of war can absolutely decimate countries and take millions of lives. The League of Nations was meant to be that peaceful roundtable to avoid future conflict.

However, it did not have the necessary power that it needed to remain since the United States did not enter into it, despite the fact that President Wilson established it, and all other members wanting the Untied States in it. It lasted from 1920 until 1946 when the United Nations succeeded it.

What does it mean to say presidential primaries/caucus are indirect elections?

Answers

A state's primary election or caucus is usually an indirect election: instead of voters directly selecting a particular person running for president, they determine the number of delegates each party's national convention will receive from their respective state.

In the US voting system, there are two rounds of voting generally every two and four years. First, a primary or a caucus is held. During those, voters pick a party nominee. For example, in a Democratic primary, voters (often but not necessarily registered as Democrats) would pick among Democratic candidates for an office. The winner of that election then goes on to run in the general election against the nominees of the other parties.

But, what is the difference between a primary and a caucus? Why do some states have one but not the other? If you’re confused on this point, you’re not alone. But we’ve got you covered in this electoral rundown.

Dear President.

Respectfully, I decided to write this letter to express my desire to keep the United States out of the war and I would like to ask you, dearly, for you to consider my views.

The entry of the USA leaves our territory and citizens in danger because of attacks that can harm us immensely. Furthermore, the entry of the United States into the war means that our people, the American soldiers, are the providers of destruction, terror, death and misery in other countries and I believe that this is not the reputation we want. Last but not least, I would like to say that allowing the country to enter the war will create a huge economic deficit and our money, earned with so much work, will not be used to promote improvements in our country, or to help our people, but to promote chaos and destruction for another nation.

Germany invaded Poland for Danzig and then that is what pushed France and Britain into war with Germany. Later, Japan reached a stalemate in China, so they expanded their sphere of influence into the pacific. Japan invaded British Malaysia and joined the axis and signed the tripartite pact with Germany and Italy leaving Japan at war with France and the U.K. Japan also bombed Pearl Harbour making the U.S declare war on Japan, Germany then declared war on the U.S, I am not sure why they did this even though they did not have to.

¿ Cuál es la importancia de los Hermanos Flores Magón
en la historia del México Pre-revolucionario ?

Answers

Answer:Ricardo Flores Magón (nacido el 16 de septiembre de 1873 en San Antonio Eloxochitlán, Oaxaca, México; fallecido el 21 de noviembre de 1922 en Leavenworth, Kansas, Estados Unidos), reformador y anarquista mexicano que fue un precursor intelectual de la Revolución Mexicana.

Flores Magón nació de padre indígena y madre mestiza. Se involucró en el activismo estudiantil mientras estudiaba derecho en la Ciudad de México. Fue encarcelado por primera vez en 1892 por liderar una pequeña manifestación contra la reelección del dictador mexicano Porfirio Díaz. Pronto se unió a un pequeño grupo de reformadores liberales, con quienes fundó la revista Regeneración en 1900. Flores Magón fue encarcelado dos veces por sus actividades radicales con el grupo, y el gobierno suprimió Regeneración en 1901. Tras su tercer arresto en 1903 por oponerse el gobierno de Díaz, Flores Magón y varios de los otros radicales huyeron a Estados Unidos. Después de sobrevivir a un intento de asesinato en Texas, Flores Magón se mudó con el resto del grupo a St. Louis, Missouri, donde establecieron formalmente el Partido Liberal Mexicano (Partido Liberal Mexicano; PLM) en 1905 y reanudaron la publicación de Regeneración. Flores Magón se convirtió en el líder más visible del PLM.

Aunque los funcionarios estadounidenses inicialmente vieron a Flores Magón como un problema mexicano, los agentes del gobierno de los EE. UU. Pronto compartieron un interés con los funcionarios mexicanos en procesarlo por sus escritos subversivos. Luego de campañas armadas del PLM y una crisis económica en 1907, el gobierno mexicano contrató al detective privado Thomas Furlong para capturar a Flores Magón con la esperanza de extraditarlo a México. Aunque Furlong pronto lo atrapó en Los Ángeles, el gobierno mexicano no pudo asegurar su extradición. En cambio, fue juzgado y condenado en Arizona por conspiración para violar las leyes de neutralidad y fue sentenciado a 18 meses de prisión.

Answers

Answer: M. The Judicial branch determined whether or not laws were to be executed.

Explanation: Marshall is making a point that it's up to the courts not to politicians to decide what is and what isn't constitutional. Prior to the Supreme Court's landmark ruling in Marbury v. Madison 1803, the judicial branch of government was extraordinarily weak. It could interpret the law but did not have the final say on whether a specific law was constitutional or not.
