Which late 1940s event prompted the United States to take steps to protect itself from Soviet espionage

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The detonation of a bomb on Russian soil prompted the United States to take steps to protect itself from Soviet espionage,

In 1949, the Americans were shocked after seeing that the U.S.S.R. had detonated an atomic bomb they were testing in their soils. It had occured only 4 years since the detonation of the atomic bombs of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. At that time, nearly a dozen Soviet spies were convicted of passing information to the Soviets during this period about the atomic bomb in what is known as the "Manhattan Project", the most famous spy being Emil Julius Klaus Fuchs. After this experience, the United States devoted a large quantity of money in protecting their secret projects and fighting espionage.

Other reasons that led US to protect from espionage were defeat of the Nationalist by Communists in China, the Korean War and the conviction of Alger Hiss.

C. He was from Tennessee and liked the South.
D. He was very popular with the freed slaves in the South.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is C. President Andrew Johnson was from Tennessee and liked the south.

Explanation:

Andrew Johnson was born in Raleigh, North Carolina and was self-taught. He moved to Tennessee in 1826, where he worked as a tailor.

In 1864, Republican Abraham Lincoln chose him as vice president. He was sworn in on March 4, 1865. After Lincoln's murder on April 15, 1865, he succeeded him as president.

Johnson ruled in the Reconstruction period, the period just after the Civil War, in which the southern slave states were again involved in the Union. He continued the policy that Lincoln had put in place, but wanted to admit the southern states much quicker. However, this was structurally opposed by Congress, which was dominated by the Republicans. Congress first wanted guarantees regarding the civil rights of the black population before they allowed the states to rejoin the nation.

The answer is C, not only did he have slaves, but was in support of the south. Congress overturned his decision on the matter.
