Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

surplus in the trade balance

Explanation:

Mercantilism not only stated that there should be a greater export of goods than imports, these goods had to have an additional added value.

Which event or events could possibly have been a cause of the Great Leap Forward

Answers

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The event that could have caused the Great Leap Foward is the following. Chinese leader Mao Zedong wanted to transform the agrarian-based economy of China into an industrial based economy that could compete in the international scene and make China a powerful country.

That is when Mao launched the Great Leap Foward, a program that aimed to transform China into an industrial power in five years. It started in 1958 when Mao ordered to send workers into small communes to work in farms and many others into industries. Millions of Chinese workers were relocated. Mao's plan included being self-sufficient in the production of steel and machinery to factories. But the plan failed dramatically and damaged the environment so much.

I think the answer has something to do with poor economics, and famine.

Let me know if that helps any.
