John F. Kennedy had supported a ban on nuclear weapons testing since 1956. He believed a ban would prevent other countries from obtaining nuclear weapons, and took a strong stand on the issue in the 1960 presidential campaign.

What was Kennedy's response to the possibility of a nuclear threat?

President Kennedy did not want the Soviet Union and Cuba to know that he had discovered the missiles. He met in secret with his advisors for several days to discuss the problem. After many long and difficult meetings, Kennedy decided to place a naval blockade, or a ring of ships, around Cuba.

D. Most European nations are part of the European Union.

Answers

The correct answer is D. Most European nations are part of the European Union.

Explanation:

The map shows the European nations and whether these belong or not to the European Union (economic and political alliance). In this map, the countries in blue are those that are already part of the union, the countries in red are candidates, and the countries in green do not belong to the union. In this context, most of the European countries are part of this union. Indeed, there are around 24 countries in blue (members of the union) and only around 9 countries in green (countries that are not part of the union). Besides this, member countries include nations such as France, Spain, Germany, Greece, and Italy; while non-members include Russia, Ukraine, and Belarus.

what are the 3 reasons for the annexation of Texas to the U.S.?​

Answers

Answer:

Here are 3 paragraphs qwq

Explanation:

Until 1836, Texas had been part of Mexico, but in that year a group of settlers from the United States who lived in Mexican Texas declared independence. They called their new country the Republic of Texas, which was an independent country for nine years.

Politics in the United States fractured over the issue of whether Texas should be admitted as a slave or free state. In the end, Texas was admitted to the United States a slave state.

The annexation of Texas contributed to the coming of the Mexican-American War (1846-1848). The conflict started, in part, over a disagreement about which river was Mexico’s true northern border: the Nueces or the Rio Grande.

3. How did the World War I and World War II cause world power to shift

Answers

Answer:

World War II, also known as the Second World War, was a global war that lasted from 1939 to 1945. It involved the vast majority of the world's countries—including all the great powers—forming two opposing military alliances: the Allies and the Axis. In a state of total war, directly involving more than 100 million personnel from more than 30 countries, the major participants threw their entire economic, industrial, and scientific capabilities behind the war effort, blurring the distinction between civilian and military resources. World War II was the deadliest conflict in human history, resulting in 70 to 85 million fatalities, with more civilians than military personnel killed. Tens of millions of people died due to genocides, premeditated death from starvation, massacres, and disease. Aircraft played a major role in the conflict, including in strategic bombing of population centres, the development of nuclear weapons, and the only two uses of such in war.

How did life change in the Americas after the arrival of Europeans?

Answers

“After European explorers reached the New World, their efforts to colonize the Americas had dramatic impacts of life lived there. Today, European culture has almost entirely replaced indigenous lifeways. Here, I will describe some of the cultural impacts of the arrival of Europeans in the Americas.
One of the most significant impacts of European colonization of the Americas was the sheer reduction in cultural diversity. In North, Central, and South America, the Europeans regarded the Native peoples as being essentially all the same, despite a wide variety of linguistic dialects, religious practices, social hierarchies, customs, and subsistence practices. It is estimated that thousands of indigenous American languages have been replaced by English, Spanish, and Portuguese through the legacy of colonialism. Language and religion often went hand in hand in the process of cultural conversion, and perhaps as many distinct religious...”

Why would the colonists after the revolutionary war create an executive branch with constitutional limits?​

Answers

After the Revolutionary War, the colonists created an executive branch with constitutional limits in order to prevent tyranny from the government and let the states still have power.

The Articles of Confederation was the first constitution for the United States, it was very weak and gave the national government little to no power. The government could barely create and enforce laws, regulate trade, draft soldiers, or tax the people.

Some people preferred this, as they felt like the power should be in the hands of the people and were scared of tyranny, as they had just broken away from British rule during the Revolutionary War. Still, some people wanted to create a stronger government and felt like the Articles of Confederation were doing more harm than good.

During the Constitutional Convention of 1787, the Articles of Confederation ended up getting scrapped and the United States Constitution was created instead. This created three branches of government, one of them being the executive branch, where the president is. Many people feared that the president would become too powerful, so they made each branch have constitutional limits. These are called separation of powers and checks and balances, each branch is powerful in its own ways and holds certain powers over others to keep each other in check.

ANSWER QUICK BRO PLS

Answers

Answer:

A. Segregation of schools, neighborhoods, and jobs stopped.

Explanation:

13th, 14th , and 15th amendments were created during the reconstruction period to give the rights for African American to vote and force the government to treat them equally under the law. Which why these amendments increase the amount of African Americans who got into public office and somewhat reduce the violence that they receive.

Segregation period was started in 1865, and only abolished in 1964. Almost 100 years after the 15th amdenemtrn was passed. So, none of those Amenemtns stopped racial segregation.
