World War II or the Second World War, often abbreviated as WWII or WW2, was a global war that lasted from 1939 to 1945. In a 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 resulted in 70 to 85 million fatalities, a majority being civilians. Tens of millions of people died due to genocides, starvation, massacres, and disease.

In the wake of the Axis defeat, Germany and Japan were occupied, and war crimes tribunals were conducted against German and Japanese leaders.

Explanation:

i got it right on edge

This is a South African Cederberg Cave Painting of ancient humans fighting an animal onslaught. A herd of elephants attacks a group of humans in the picture. The right answer is D.

The painting serves as a stark reminder of the dangers that early humans suffered at the hands of wild beasts. It is also a monument to early humans' bravery and innovation in surviving and thriving in a harsh environment.

Humans are running away from the elephants. They're undoubtedly terrified and attempting to flee. Humans are being charged by elephants. They are definitely enraged and prepared to fight.

The humans are equipped with spears and shields in this artwork, but they are evidently outnumbered and surpassed by the elephants. The image depicts the risks that early humans faced from wild animals in great detail.

What is this microwave radiation?​

Answers

Answer:Microwaves are a form of "electromagnetic" radiation; that is, they are waves of electrical and magnetic energy moving together through space. Electromagnetic radiation spans a broad spectrum from very long radio waves to very short gamma rays. The human eye can only detect a small portion of this spectrum called visible light. A radio detects a different portion of the spectrum, and an X-ray machine uses yet another portion.

Visible light, microwaves, and radio frequency (RF) radiation are forms of non-ionizing radiation.  Non-ionizing radiation does not have enough energy to knock electrons out of atoms. X-rays are a form of ionizing radiation. Exposure to ionizing radiation can alter atoms and molecules and cause damage to cells in organic matter.

Microwaves are used to detect speeding cars and to send telephone and television communications. Industry uses microwaves to dry and cure plywood, to cure rubber and resins, to raise bread and doughnuts, and to cook potato chips. But the most common consumer use of microwave energy is in microwave ovens. Microwaves have three characteristics that allow them to be used in cooking: they are reflected by metal; they pass through glass, paper, plastic, and similar materials; and they are absorbed by foods.

How did Rome's size contribute to its economy and society?


What was the impact of Rome winning the Punic War?


Based on Rome's growth, how did this change Europe?

Answers

Answer:

ans 1

The Roman economy during the Roman Republic, was largely agrarian and centered on the trading of commodities such as grain and wine.[2] Financial markets were established through such trade, and financial institutions, which extended credit for personal use and public infrastructure, were established primarily by interfamily wealth.[3] In times of agricultural and cash shortfall, Roman officials and moneyers tended to respond by coining money, which happened during the prolonged crisis of the First Punic War and created economic distortion and difficulties.

Explanation:

answer 2 A result of the first Punic War and the Romans was the decisive naval victory against the Carthaginians at the Aegate Islands. This gave Rome full control of Sicily and Corsica. The end of the First Punic War saw the beginning of the Roman expansion beyond the Italian peninsula.

Was the Vietnam war winnable for America? A paragraph please

Answers

Answer:

Short answer: Yes.

Explanation:

The Vietnam War saw to the US's superior industrial, population, and military superiority, as well as the extensive usage of tactics and military industrial advantages. In fact, the Vietcong, even with the then USSR and Communist China's backing, was slowly losing grip and was losing at that point. However, the anti-war viewpoint became increasingly popular, as the reason for the US to join was inadequate at best, and the views of fighting another countries battle and seeing their own young men come home wrapped in the American flag' was unbearable to the US general public, therefore support was withdrawn. If the US continued to push after the Tet Offensive, then the US would have been able to claim the Vietnam War as a victory, rather than a strategic withdrawal, which led to the eventual demise of South Vietnam.

Revolution is a dynamic process with consequences no one can anticipate. What were the causes of the American Revolution? Explain the initial goals of the colonists in 1765 at the time of the Stamp Act and the evolution of their ultimate decision to declare independence in 1776.

Answers

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

What were the causes of the American Revolution? Explain the initial goals of the colonists in 1765 at the time of the Stamp Act and the evolution of their ultimate decision to declare independence in 1776.

The initial causes of the Revolutionary War of Independence were the following. The American colonists were sick and tired of the unfair laws and legislation imposed by the British government. Colonists were tired of the heavy taxation imposed by the English monarchy such as the Navigation Acts, the Stamp Act, the Townshend Act, or the Tea Act, among many others.

The ultimate decision came when these colonists were angry and upset about the fact that they had no voice or representation in the British Parliament. Colonists knew that by then, they were capable of establishing their own form of government.

Pamphlets such as Thomas Pain's "Common Sense" invited Patriots to support the Revolutionary War. And so it was.

The war started and prominent colonists such as Thomas Jefferson, Robert Livingston, Benjamin Franklin, Roger Sherman, and John Adams drafted the Declaration of Independence that was promulgated on July 4, 1776.

what is the history of gumpboots dance​

Answers

The South African Gumboot Dance

Perhaps the most recognizable dance in the show, the gumboot dance originated during apartheid-era South Africa. The dance gets its name from the thick rubber rain boots (think modern day Hunter Boots) known as “gumboots” or “wellingtons” worn by migrant laborers who were employed in diamond and coal mines. The apartheid government enacted laws that restricted these workers from speaking to one another, so they developed their own means of communication: using the sounds and stomps of their gumboots as a form of morse-code. The movement eventually transformed into a dance, which became particularly popular during the fight against apartheid and even became a protest symbol. Those involved in the Struggle would participate in the gumboot dance as a way to express their unification in the fight against the oppressive government. Even after the official end of apartheid in 1994, the gumboot dance remained a symbol of hope and solidarity. This dance made its way into popular culture as well, with Paul Simon writing a song titled “Gumboots” featured on his touchstone album Graceland. The formation of the gumboot dance marks a pivotal point in both the history of South Africa, as it symbolized the fight against a powerful regime, as well as in the history of dance, as it became the foundation for the development of step-dancing.
