how would you go about taking over the world?

Answers

Answer: Easy (i forgot to do Greenland but its an easy fix...)

Explanation: Since I live in the US I would first start taking over Canada during the spring, of course Canada's allies would help them but they wouldn't be able to deliver anything, because of United States Navy. It will probably be a few months before Canada would fully surrender from lack of food, and ammo. I would have the army keep control of Canada while the Military heading to Mexico in the end of fall. Mexico would be more difficult however their lack of supplies would be there demise as well, because the Navy and military would have surrounded them. I would go with the same strategy in South America, and ounce they were taken over id have the Military keep them under control. It be about a decade before I continued to Asia, to regain many more soldiers, now taking over China would be difficult indeed but since id still be allied with Japan for a deal of them keeping China's land, for they would have to agree the US was 10 times there size. After years wed finally take over Asa, ounce again id wait about a decade before I advanced while fending off Europe, because they understand that there next. Finally id surround Europe with the Navy and Military, and after taking down the last of there army id make Japan go under my rule.

Why was there a gap in wages between farmers and factory workers?

A) Farmers charged too much for their goods
B) Consumers did not purchase enough goods
C) The majority of Americans made more than $10,000
D) Wealth was unevenly divided between farmers and factory workers

thank you:) <3

Answers

Answer:

Option D, Wealth was unevenly divided between farmers and factory workers

Explanation:

Difference in income is specifically due to unequal division of income between two groups of people. Like there is a minimum salary bar for the factory workers there must be a minimum pay structure for farmers as well. Since the farmers do not have any support in form of such legal regulations, they are paid quite less as compared to the factory workers.

Hence, option D is correct

what actions did they take in pursuit of these goals that caused Britain, France, and then the United States to declare war?

Answers

Germany encroached on places like Austria, Sudetenland, and the rest of Czechoslovakia. Germany invaded Poland forcing the allies (France and Britain) to declare war because they didn’t want Germany to keep expanding while they sat idly by. Japan was in a stalemate with China and wanted to expand, so Japan signed the Tripartite pact (the tripartite pact was a pact between Italy, Germany, and Japan), invaded British Malaysia, and bombed Pearl Harbor. This made Great Britain, France, and the U.S declare war on Japan. Germany then decided to declare war in the U.S, even though they didn’t have to.
