Question

Which of the following was a goal of the North Africa Offensive?

Answer 1

to prevent the Axis powers from establishing full control of the Mediterranean region

to draw Hitler's army to Africa so Western Europe could be invaded

to force Mussolini to remain in Africa where his troops could not aid Hitler's

to re-establish Italian control of its former colonies in North Africa

Answer 2

I'd say that the main reason was to prevent Axis powers from establishing full control of the Mediterranean region.

Answer 3

thank you so much. can you help me with a couple more? :(

Answer 4

Sure, I have a bit of time. Go for it! :)

Answer 5

What was the purpose of D-Day?

to launch a surprise invasion of Europe from southern Italy

to encourage the Soviet Union to continue fighting on the Eastern Front

to reclaim Western Europe first before attempting to move Allied troops into Germany

to establish a stronghold on Germany's northern coast

Answer 6

Tricky question, but based on the answers here, it was to reclaim Western Europe first before attempting to move Allied troops into Germany. Mostly it was to open a second front to split German forces so they would end up fighting the Western Allies and the Soviet Union all at once.

Answer 7

Thank you so much. would you mind helping me with one more? :')

Answer 8

Glad to help! Go ahead and ask away. :)

Answer 9

What was the significance of the Battle of Stalingrad?

It prevented Germany from successfully gaining control of Moscow.

It led to Germany's capture of the Red Army in 1943.

It forced the Soviet Union to reconsider its commitment to the Allied cause.

It slowed down the Russian invasion of German territory begun in 1941.

Answer 10

I've seen this question before on here and none of the answers are really any good. The only answer that seems to work is that it prevented Germany from successfully gaining control of Moscow, though that's not really true...the Battle of Moscow ended a year or so before Stalingrad took place.

But it's the only one that fits. Germany didn't capture the Red Army in 1943. It was a huge victory for the Soviets, so it didn't figure into what they thought about the Allies (they still needed them). And it certainly didn't slow down the Russian invasion of German territory (that would occur in 1945).

Answer 11

I havent really used this website before, but it is such a help. You're so smart! Are you a teacher or something? ahah!

Answer 12

WW2 is something of a hobby of mine so I know quite a bit about it. :)

Answer 13

What event shook the United States from its non-interventionist foreign policy and directly involved it in World War II?

the destruction caused during the Battle of Britain

Japanese aggression in China and Southeast Asia

Japanese bombing of the U.S. naval base at Pearl Harbor

the death of President Roosevelt and the elevation of Truman

this is the last one i have, if you dont mind! i promise ;')

Answer 14

That's definitely Pearl Harbor -- before that happened, US isolationists kept arguing that we had no business in helping Europe or anyone else. Even Lindberg was arguing for isolationism.
