Explanation:
The Marshall Plan in Action
The Marshall Plan allowed European states suffering from extreme economic problems to survive a critical time with less trouble. The aid provided essential goods such as steel, machinery, fuel, and food. This aid also fueled reconstruction projects and provided technical assistance to allow European businesses to improve worker productivity. It gave European governments the freedom to focus on reviving their economies without cutting critical social programs that helped ordinary people stay in their homes and feed their families. These governments could hold onto power and prevent communist coups from weakening their already unstable democracies as they did in Hungary and Czechoslovakia.
A promotional poster for the Marshall Plan which says "Whatever the weather, we only reach welfare together."
By September 1947, 16 states submitted a recovery plan to the United States. By April of the following year, the US Congress passed the Foreign Assistance Act and implemented the Marshall Plan. President Truman signed it into law the next day. The United States next created an authority called the Economic Cooperative Administration to administer the aid to the European states. This included the new state of West Germany as the seventeenth country to sign up as a recipient.
The Marshall Plan funds were divided into several categories. First, Europeans needed to receive food and agricultural products. The American government sent $5.3 billion to help them. The factories needed to be restarted and raw materials purchased. To that end, the United States sent $5.5 billion. The goods required shipment to Europe, for which the United States paid $800 million. Finally, to avoid trade imbalances and currency problems, the United States helped set up the European Payments Union (EPU), which was funded with $500 million of US aid.
The Marshall Plan ended on the last day of 1951. By then, it was responsible for a remarkable transformation in the countries it served. Food production increased by 27 percent. Overall industrial production increased by 64 percent. The Marshall Plan financed 132 large industrial projects, including 27 new power plants, 32 iron and steel plants, and 11 petroleum refineries. New airports, shipping facilities, and railways were built all over Marshall Plan countries.
European states had to figure out a way to work together to receive funds. They began to see each other as partners rather than rivals. They began to collaborate on new initiatives to integrate by allowing West Germany to become a member of the European Coal and Steel Community (ECSC) in 1951. The ECSC would eventually evolve into what's known today as the European Union, a 27-member community of European states.

The U.S. is often described as a two-party system. The Democrats and the Republicans are said to hold a duopoly, meaning that they share almost all the political power in the country. Several other countries have a larger number of parties. For example, Japan has at least four parties and Israel has at least twelve parties each vying for power in the elections. Please explain at least 2 ways in which the U.S. government and electoral process would change if a third party emerged and political power in the U.S. was split across three political parties instead of two.
Answer:
The United States has only two major political parties: the Democrats and the Republicans. These parties have a Duopoly, meaning that they share almost all the political power in the country.
Parties In Other Democracies
Most democratic countries have more than two parties. In Israel, for example, twelve parties or party alliances held seats in the seventeenth Knesset. Japan has several major parties, including the Liberal Democratic Party, the Democratic Party of Japan, the New Komeito, and the Japanese Communist Party.
The Electoral System
In the United States, a candidate wins the election by gaining a Plurality, or more votes than any other candidate. This is a Winner-Take-All System because there is no reward for the party or candidate that finishes second. Parties aim to be as large as possible, smoothing over differences among candidates and voters. There is no incentive to form a party that consistently gets votes but cannot win an election. As a result, two political parties usually dominate plurality electoral systems to the disadvantage of smaller third parties, just as the Democrats and the Republicans dominate the American political system. No one person or organization prevents third parties from forming, but the plurality system itself usually hinders their efforts to win votes.
The United States also has mostly Single-Member Districts, meaning that each legislative district sends only one member to the legislature. There is no benefit to finishing second. Some countries use Multiple-Member Districts, which makes it easier for minor parties to succeed because there are more members winning seats in the legislature.
The Electoral College
The Electoral College exacerbates the winner-take-all system because in all but two states, whoever wins the most popular votes wins all of the state’s electoral votes in the presidential election. The electoral rules favor a two-party system, and minor parties have a very difficult time competing in such a system. Even successful third-party candidates often fail to get a single electoral vote.

Explanation:
In addition to fighting in the army how did Europeans colonies contribute to the war effort?
Answer: The uneven division of the colonies led to war.
Explanation:
The beginning of the 20th century was accompanied by European countries' efforts to acquire as many colonies as possible. France and Great Britain led the way in the colonization of the world. The German Empire and Austro-Hungary wanted a part for themselves. France and Great Britain were not interested in the possible division of the colonies; they were satisfied with the state of dominance in terms of colonization. In such circumstances, nationalism is strengthening on all sides. War rhetoric is being created among those countries, which leads to the strengthening of nationalist propaganda. The uneven division of colonies among European countries was the main factor that led to the First World War. The assassination of Prince Franz Ferdinand in Sarajevo in 1914 was just a pretext for starting the war.

Select all the correct answers. What are two reasons why investors in England were likely unwilling to finance the early voyages of merchants and joint-stock companies to the Americas? The voyages were very expensive. The voyages were risky, and there was no insurance to cover the risk. The investors were only interested in voyages to China. The investors were more interested in saving money.
Answer:
The voyages were very expensive.
The voyages were risky, and there was no insurance to cover the risk.
Explanation:
England wouldn't invest in the early voyages as it was expensive and risky because it holds no insurance to cover the risk. Queen Elizabeth, in the beginning, was unwilling to spend money from the national treasury in ventures. However, merchants with wealth weren't enough for voyages. England only became interested in the journeys after Spain and Portugal found America and riches, including land and bullion (gold and silver).
