Hey, can someone help me with Proxy Wars?
More details please
okay, i have 8 questions, this isn't for a quiz but it's a review for an exam, can you help me?
Sure....
Okay, here is the first question: Why did the United States eventually stop supporting South Africa? The government began enacting socialist land reforms. Popular opinion turned against South African apartheid. South Africa began taking arms and funds from the Soviets. The American public stopped supporting African intervention.
It's either B or D but I would go with D
When i answered D last time, I got it it wrong, so im gonna go with B
Ok if that's wrong then pick C
but I doubt it......
Okay thanks, Here's another: The Soviets' exit from Afghanistan led to a sweeping victory for democracy series of unstable governments Soviet-style dictatorship U.S.-backed Muslim theocracy

A
☺
Rad man!
hahaha thanks
Why are the wars in Vietnam and Korea better remembered in the United States than other proxy wars? because the United States lost these wars because the United States won these wars because many Americans died in these wars because these were the longest proxy wars
D
I chose D last time and got it wrong.......
Oh Ok.
yeah, is there another answer that could be right?
B?
But it should be D. Maybe im wrong try B
okay, the next one has a picture to use to answer the question, here it is: Use the following graph and what you know about American military involvement to answer the question below. What accounts for the spikes in American defense spending in the 1950s? the entry of the U.S. into the UN the Afghan War the Vietnam War the Korean War
A
This one has a pic too: Use the graph below showing the cost of wars in the 20th century to answer the following question. Which is the best explanation for why the Cold War is not included in this chart? Since the Cold War didn't involve fighting, there was no money budgeted or lost in fighting the Cold War. Because the Cold War is just another name for the Vietnam War, that cost is included in the graph. The Cold War was not a conventional war, and its costs are measured by the individual proxy wars. It is included in the costs of World War II as part of the global post-war recovery.
A
