In the United States, Congress _____.

A. forbade the use of U.S. ground forces in Cambodia and Laos

B. authorized covert South Vietnamese attacks on North Vietnam

C. supported the invasion of Laos as a deterrent to Communism.

D. gave President Nixon the power to expand the war into Cambodia.

Answers

Answer 1

Congress forbade the use of U.S. ground forces in Cambodia and Laos, reacting to the expansion of the Vietnam War and public opposition, highlighted through the War Powers Act of 1973 which aimed to limit presidential powers in military matters. (option A)

In the United States, Congress forbade the use of U.S. ground forces in Cambodia and Laos.

This was a part of the wider context of the United States' involvement in Southeast Asia during the Vietnam War era. Under President Richard Nixon, the United States had been conducting military operations in neutral Cambodia to disrupt North Vietnamese and Viet Cong operations.

The expansion of the war into Cambodia and the resulting antiwar protests in America led to Congress taking action with the War Powers Act of 1973, which required the president to consult with Congress before deploying troops.

Which of the following was NOT true about Isabella d'Este

She made Mantua a center of art and learning

She was considered a true renaissance woman

She was a successful diplomat despite her lack of education

She once ruled Mantua during her husbands absence

Answers

She was considered a true Renaissance woman because she was a doer and a thinker.

The claim that Isabella d'Este was a successful diplomat despite her lack of education is false; she was in fact well-educated and used her intelligence and education to contribute to her diplomatic success.

The statement that Isabella d'Este lacked education and was therefore a successful diplomat despite this is NOT true about her. Isabella d'Este was well-educated and her diplomatic success can be attributed to her education alongside her intelligence. As the Marchioness of Mantua, she made significant contributions to the arts and knowledge during the Renaissance. Not only did she transform Mantua into a center of art and learning, but Isabella d'Este was indeed considered a true Renaissance woman, and at times, she ruled Mantua during her husband's absence. Her court included several renowned artists, reflecting her power and influence. Yet, it is important to recognize that Renaissance women like Isabella d'Este still faced gender imbalances in opportunities and recognition compared to male counterparts.

Democracy and global

Civil society is the "aggregate of non-governmental organizations and institutions that manifest interests and will of citizens".[1] Civil society includes the family and the private sphere, referred to as the "third sector" of society, distinct from government and business.[2] By other authors, "civil society" is used in the sense of 1) the aggregate of non-governmental organizations and institutions that manifest interests and will of citizens or 2) individuals and organizations in a society which are independent of the government.[1]

Sometimes the term civil society is used in the more general sense of "the elements such as freedom of speech, an independent judiciary, etc, that make up a democratic society" (Collins English Dictionary).[3] Especially in the discussions among thinkers of Eastern and Central Europe, civil society is seen also as a concept of civic values. One widely known representative of this concept is the Polish former dissident Adam Michnik.

Answers

The Southern Colonies specialized in cash crops such as rice, tobacco, and indigo, which were important for their economic success.

The southern colonies specialized primarily in cash crops such as rice, tobacco, and indigo. These crops were in high demand both in the colonies and in Europe, and they could be sold for substantial profits, hence their classification as 'cash crops'. The most lucrative product of the Chesapeake colonies, for example, was tobacco, which was heavily relied upon for the economic success of the region. Rice also played a significant role in the development of Carolina as its first true cash crop. Additionally, crops like sugar and cotton, though not explicitly mentioned in the options provided, also represent significant cash crops and were typically associated with plantation agriculture, where enslaved laborers were often used.

Which one of the following was NOT one of Louis XIV’s favorites?

Answers

Final answer:

Louis the Pious, who faced rebellion and was forced to abdicate, dividing his empire with the Treaty of Verdun, was not one of Louis XIV's favorites.

Explanation:

King Louis XIV, known as the Sun King, reigned over France with absolute power from 1643 to 1715, making him a central figure in the French history of monarchy. He required the nobility to live at Versailles, his opulent palace, to monitor and control their influence. This prevented them from using their wealth to plot revolts and forced them to focus on gaining the king's favor, which could include prestigious tasks like holding the king's shirt as he dressed. Louis XIV's rule was characterized by his personal authority and the use of art and architecture, such as the construction of Versailles and the support of the arts, notably theatre. However, your question seems to refer to a figure named Louis, who was not viewed as imposing nor successful in maintaining a unified state. This description matches Louis the Pious, the son of Charlemagne, who faced rebellion from his sons and was eventually forced to abdicate, dividing the empire with the Treaty of Verdun. Therefore, Louis the Pious was not one of Louis XIV's favorites and their narratives should not be confused.
