The US and USSR engaged in proxy wars by? A. supporting armies in conflicts around the world B. sending spies to steal national secrets from each other C. stockpiling nuclear weapons D. engaging in direct military conflicts
Hey there! I'm happy to help!
Proxy means that something is done representing something or someone else. If you tell somebody to say hi to someone for you, they are saying hi to that other person in proxy for you.
Answer B talks about sending spies. This has nothing to do with proxy.
Answer C talks about getting more weapons. This doesn't have anything to do with representation.
Answer D talks about engaging in direct military conflicts. If the US and USSR armies were fighting each other, that would not be proxy because there is no one else representing them.
Answer A talks about supporting armies in conflicts around the world. In Korea, the USSR supported North Korea and the US supported South Korea. These two fought kind of on behalf of the USSR and US, so it is basically proxy. North Korea represented the USSR and South Korea represented the US.
Therefore, the answer is A. supporting armies in conflicts around the world.
Have a wonderful day! :D

Write a short paragraph on Hinduism, describe its origin, major principles, and how it affected existing laws, social practices, or culture.
Also, describe whether and how the religion influenced other societies.
Answer:
Hey there!
Hinduism is a religion that many believe started somewhere between 2300 B.C. and 1500 B.C in the Indus Valley. Unlike some other religions, Hinduism was not created by a single person, but rather a fusion of different beliefs and ideas. Hindus believe that there are four goals in human life: kama, artha, moksha, and dharma. Hinduism affected society, especially in Ancient India, very much. For example, it created a caste system, where people were designated "classes." The kings and noble people were always at the top, where the servants and slaves were always at the bottom.
Let me know if you need further explaining. I'm happy to help :)

To what extent was the French Revolution influenced by the American Revolution
Answer:
The American Revolution greatly inspired the French Revolution because of their Declaration of Independence, successful revolution, and similar ideologies and causes.
Explanation:
The American Revolution's Declaration of Independence greatly inspired the French because it had the same Enlightenment ideologies that the French desired in their government system. This inspired the French to create the Declaration of the Rights of Man and the Citizen in their revolution.
The fact that America had a successful revolution was also very inspiring to the French, as the French could now see that a revolt could be possible that completely transformed a country's government and society.
Lastly, the American Revolution had similar ideologies and causes with the French, which inspired the French revolt like America did. For example, both America and France wanted Enlightenment philosophy in their government systems, and they had similar causes like very unjust monarchies and unequal rights.
En tiempos normales se nos habla de la abstracción de la no-vida y ahora en esta epidemia se nos habla de la vida y la muerte, que relación tiene esta frase con el capitalismo?
La respuesta correcta para esta pregunta abierta es la siguiente.
La relación que tiene esta frase con el capitalismo es que dentro de este sistema económico, todo es un negocio. Si un emprendimiento no resulta en ganancia, simplemente no se invierte en ello.
En estos momentos de pandemia, los grandes capitales e inversionistas podrían aportar la suma de dinero que se necesita para el pronto desarrollo de una vacuna contra el virus. Sin embargo, y hasta el día de hoy, esa ambición de generar dinero no ha convencido a los hombres del poder para poder invertir en salud pública. Simplemente no es negocio y no es lo suyo.
Anteriormente, científicos Europeos ya habían considerado la posibilidad de desarrollar este tipo de vacunas contra varios tipos de gripa. Para ello, necesitaban subvenciones o inversionistas para realizar sus investigaciones. Nunca recibieron respuesta.

The policy of "containment" can best be described as: a. preventing the expansion of U.S. economic interests in Latin America to appease growing unrest in impoverished regions. b. a focus on the containment of further military conflict in the postwar world. c. preventing the spread of communism worldwide. d. George Kennan’s theory that the United States must pursue normal relations with the Soviet Union, or fail to contain Chinese postwar aggression. e. C and D
Answer:
c. preventing the spread of communism worldwide.
Explanation:
The policy of containment was introduced by President Harry S. Truman who served as the President of the United States after World War II. He served from 1945 to 1953. The idea of containment was among his international policies geared at preventing the spread of communism but not trying to seize the territories already occupied by communist countries. Communism is an economy in which resources have common ownership and in which citizens are denied ownership of private properties. Resources are shared according to the perceived needs of individuals. This policy is in opposition to capitalism and other liberal ideologies.
Countries that had the tendencies to relapse into communism were discouraged from doing that and were also given the support they needed to prevent such. The United States believed that communism was a negative economic policy and wanted to prevent its spread from the USSR and other Communist countries. The Marshall Plan was developed in a bid to strengthen the economies of European Countries and protect them from communism.
