Answer: Reagan Administration; Iran; Contra rebels
Explanation:
You included no options so the above is my best answer.
Reagan administration brokered the deal of sending US arms to Iran in exchange for money. The United States' commitment to stopping the spread of communism led to its support of the Contra rebels, using money from the arms deal.
The Iran - Contra affair happened during the presidency of Ronald Reagan and involved the sale of weapons to Iran as a method of hostage negotiation. Some of the proceeds of these sales were then used to support the Contra rebels of Nicaragua who were fighting against their Socialist / Communist government.
The reason they needed to use the funds from the sale of the weapons was because Congress had prohibited support for the Contras and the administration was trying to get around this.

why did kennedy and guevara see this revolution differently
Explanation:
In 1952, American ally General Fulgencio Batista led a coup against President Carlos Prio and forced Prio into exile in Miami, Florida. Prio's exile inspired the creation of the 26th of July Movement against Batista by Castro. The movement successfully completed the Cuban Revolution in December 1958. Castro nationalized American businesses—including banks, oil refineries, and sugar and coffee plantations—then severed Cuba's formerly close relations with the United States and reached out to its Cold War rival, the Soviet Union. In response, U.S. President Dwight D. Eisenhower allocated $13.1 million to the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) in March 1960, for use against Castro. With the aid of Cuban counter-revolutionaries, the CIA proceeded to organize an invasion operation.
After Castro's victory, Cuban exiles who had traveled to the U.S. had formed the counter-revolutionary military unit Brigade 2506. The brigade fronted the armed wing of the Democratic Revolutionary Front (DRF), and its purpose was to overthrow Castro's government. The CIA funded the brigade, which also included some U.S. military[7] personnel, and trained the unit in Guatemala.
Over 1,400 paramilitaries, divided into five infantry battalions and one paratrooper battalion, assembled and launched from Guatemala and Nicaragua by boat on 17 April 1961. Two days earlier, eight CIA-supplied B-26 bombers had attacked Cuban airfields and then returned to the U.S. On the night of 17 April, the main invasion force landed on the beach at Playa Girón in the Bay of Pigs, where it overwhelmed a local revolutionary militia. Initially, José Ramón Fernández led the Cuban Army counter-offensive; later, Castro took personal control. As the invaders lost the strategic initiative, the international community found out about the invasion, and U.S. President John F. Kennedy decided to withhold further air support.[8] The plan devised during Eisenhower's presidency had required involvement of both air and naval forces. Without air support, the invasion was being conducted with fewer forces than the CIA had deemed necessary. The invaders surrendered on 20 April. Most of the invading counter-revolutionary troops were publicly interrogated and put into Cuban prisons. The invading force had been defeated within three days by the Cuban Revolutionary Armed Forces (Spanish: Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias – FAR).

Read the passage.
The official class naturally disliked to see people leave the country and were disposed to sneer at almost everything American. Being well educated at the university and holding their offices for life, they were looked up to with great respect by the common country-people. NO wonder, therefore, that to the official class many things in America seemed bizarre. Just think, a railsplitter being president and a tailor vice-president! Besides, was not almost everybody in America carrying revolvers, and quick on the trigger on slight provocation? Was not justice administered by mobs or vigilance committees? In addition to that, there was negro slavery and so much humbug—"American humbug!” Why should any one go to a country like that?
Some had gone, however, following the Sloopers of '25 from 1836 on, but they were mostly tenants or very poor farmers who had barely scraped up enough to pay the passage on sailships and canal boats as far as Chicago or Milwaukee. Of some of the few educated persons leaving it was said they were no longer safe at home and that for them America was a safer and more suitable place. Letters were coming back from the poor emigrants, telling how much land they had acquired for little or nothing, how much stock they had and how they fared on pork, eggs, and white bread every day, instead of in Norway (as they used to say) "one day on soup and herring and the next day on herring and soup,” or "one day mush and milk and the next day milk and mush.”

Education was highly valued and considered as a symbol of wealth and high social status from the 13th to the 17th century. Timbuktu was then a hub of Islamic learning especially under the leadership of the Malian empire in the 14th century. Books were bought and sold under this government.
Scholars from surrounding empires visited Timbuktu in order to acquire the knowledge of Islam, the arts and sciences. Emperor Mohammed Askia provided great support for education and that resulted in the publishing of a lot of manuscripts.

How did slaves live before the Civil War
Slaves were subjected to work for free. They were tortured and sold like livestock and not humans. in fact, nearly every right they had was stricken away from them in America. they mainly worked on plantations because their "owners" could collect tax on them and use them as collateral. Slaves before the civil war were nothing more than an object to slave owners.
