By 1918 the USA had become the world's wealthiest and most powerful country, yet
in 1929 it was the source of the Great Depression.
In the light of the above statement, explain briefly why the USA was so rich and
powerful, and then explain the causes of the Great Depression in 1929.

Answers

Answer 1

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached we can say the following

It is true that by 1918 the USA had become the world's wealthiest and most powerful country after all the loans and deep debt of western European countries resulted from World War I.

However, in 1929,  the United States was the source of the Great Depression.

So as we have mentioned, the United States was so rich for the loans made during World War I, the size of its industry, and that western Europeans had a deep debt and owed too much money to the US.

During the 1920s, the US lived a fantastic economic period known as "the Roaring 1920s," in which people buy many necessary and unnecessary things, mostly on credit. We are talking about cars, houses, and electro domestics.

That generated a deep debt. On the other hand, the speculation of investors in the stock market created a bubble that could not be contained. And on October 29, 1929, the United States marked crashed, and this represented the beginning of the Great Depression, starting the worst economic crisis in the history of the United States.

After the US stock market crashed, millions of Americans lost their jobs, companies broke, and banks went into bankruptcy.

WILL MARK BRAINLIEST

Answers

it was different because the American Revolution was fought against Britain and the Civil War was fought between the Northern and Southern United States They were also similar because both wars were because of denied rights.

Answer:

The similarities:

A. leadership--both sets of leaders were predominantly dedicated, focused, and inspiring to their men.

B. causes of the wars--both wars were waged in the name of unity, the American Revolutionary War for unity of the colonies of America, and the Civil War for the unity (preservation) of the Union.

C. where they were fought--both wars were fought on American soil.

D. who fought whom--in both wars, Americans did fight fellow Americans; in the case of the American Revolutionary War, Patriots fought Loyalists (as well as the British); in the case of the American Civil War, Americans from the North fought Americans from the South.

E. duration--both wars were relatively short, less than ten years each ( American Revolutionary War dates are debatable; some say 1776-1781, while others say 1776-1783. The American Civil War lasted from April 1861 to April 1865).

F. outcome of the wars--unity of our nation was the main result of both wars.

The differences:

A. leadership--both American and British leaders served during the American Revolutionary War (along with mercenaries from France and elsewhere); only American leaders served during the American Civil War.

B. causes of the wars--the American Revolutionary War was fought for independence from Britain and unity of the colonies, while the American Civil War was fought for the preservation of the union and over states vs. national powers of government and the issue of slavery.

C. location--the American Revolutionary War was fought within the thirteen original colonies, however, the American Civil War was fought in the South ( primarily in the middle to southeastern United States), only a few battles were fought in the North (the northeastern U.S.).

D. parties involved--the American Revolutionary War involved primarily two groups of people, the British and their loyal colonists (i.e. Loyalists), against the American revolutionists (i.e. Patriots) with the aid of some mercenaries, and to some degree, the French. The American Civil War involved primarily two groups of people, the North (northern citizens, some freed slaves and some escaped slaves) and the South (southern citizens and some slaves).

E. weaponry--the American Revolutionary War involved rudimentary weapons which lent themselves to hand-to-hand combat and close range fighting (e.g.. swords, knives, bayonets, pistols, rifles, and cannons). The American Civil War however involved far deadlier weaponry. Though the same weapons were used in both wars, during the American Civil War, they were more advanced, easier and faster to use, much more accurate and easily repaired due to the fact that many had interchangeable parts.

F. number of casualties-- many thousands died in the American Revolutionary War, however more died in the American Civil War than in all the wars America has entered into since its inception.

G. duration--the American Revolutionary War lasted by some accounts five years, but if the actual treaty marks the end, then it lasted seven years. The American Civil War however lasted four years.

H. strategies--during the American Revolutionary War, numerous strategies were employed as each side became better acquainted with the strengths and weaknesses of the other. The Patriots relied on “guerrilla” tactics, while the British seemed to hold onto the “traditional” style of fighting (all in a line, organized, easily spotted, dressed in red...) Strategy was particularly difficult for the Patriots as their army was not comprised of soldiers in the traditional sense, instead it had random numbers of colonists with widely varying levels of military skills in its ranks at any one time. British strategies, though sometimes effective, were often ineffective against Patriots familiar with the land and able to blend in with the scenery! During the American Civil War, the North used the Anaconda plan which included trying to keep the war in the south, use blockades to prevent access to help from the sea, and to weaken and invade the South. The South planned to defend its territory, with the support of Britain and France, until the North tired of the war.

I. outcomes of the wars--the American Revolutionary War ended with Britain releasing its American colonies and with the establishment of the United States of America. The American Civil War ended with far greater devastation, yet with the Union intact. The 13th Amendment soon followed, officially abolishing slavery.

The precise definition has changed throughout time, but in modern usage, it typically refers to either: an image or series of images meant for parody, satire, or humor; or a movie that uses a series of illustrations to animate the action.

In the first sense, someone who makes cartoons is referred to as a cartoonist, and in the second sense, they are typically referred to as animators.

The idea was first used to describe a preparatory sketch for a work of art, such as a painting, fresco, tapestry, or stained-glass window, in the Middle Ages.
