Answer 1
Answer:

The main reason for building the Suez Canal was to allow Indian merchants to reach the eastern coast of Africa. Thus, option B is correct.

What is a Suez Canal?

Suez Canal was built as an artificial waterway that was geared towards the building of a dam that was created as a way to connect Europe with Asia. It was very expensive to build that type of channel that would connect the destinations.

As the Indians at the time were considered to be a location rich in various condiments, spices, and other items, they all wanted to make that type of trade easier for them to have, and thus a route called the Suez Canal was created by Ferdinand de Lesseps in the year 1854.

Due to its geographical placement on the water lanes connecting the Red Sea as well as the Mediterranean, this same Suez Canal is crucial for the Indian economy. 

Therefore, option B is the correct option.

In response to the New Deal, what does the creation of a welfare state say about the changing priorities of the United States? Does this principle still hold today?.

Answers

Through the creation of a "welfare state" or a state with social safety nets such as those that were created under the New Deal it showed that the United States had a renewed focus on providing economic opportunities for its people especially in times of recession and depression. The priority today is in tact in some ways and under attack in others given that the Republicans and Democrats have very different views about the value or purpose of implementing welfare or social safety net programs.

Napoleon’s decision to invade Russia was, perhaps, his greatest mistake. Which of the following statements is not true about the invasion of Russia? A. Napoleon decided to invade Russia because it was leaving the Continental System. B. Napoleon marched his army all the way to Moscow. C. Napoleon was defeated by the Russians at the battle of Waterloo. D. Napoleon's army suffered great losses due to Russia's harsh winter.

Answers

the incorrect statement is; Napoleon was defeated by the Russians at the battle of Waterloo.

The Battle of Waterloo occurred in Belgium, the year 1815, is considered by most historians, the final defeat of Napoleon Bonaparte. As military combat between the French army and factions composed of British, Dutch and Prussian forces, In this battle, there was no place for Russian troops.  

The pursuit of conquering Russia had previously failed. so it could be expected that Napoleon had waited to recover from this major loss. Instead of it, he decided to go on and attack a Coalition the Alliance that had been years previously trying to knock him out of European affairs.

As a final turnover for him, Wellington a British Commander had defeated him, there were no second chances for Napoleon after this subsequent loss. The French and people started to fed up as Napoleon was incapable of maintaining military victories, so they handled him to the British. He finally was sent to exile.
Napoleon decided to Invade Russia in hopes of having them stop their trade with Britain which was undergoing the Continental System blockade so that is true

Napoleon marched his army all the way to Moscow in a series of minor battles to destroy the Russian army so that is true

Napoleon's army suffered great losses due to Russia's harsh winter which in that campaign, Russia's winter was the worst ever in recorded history of the country and the winter along with a series of deserters/captured troops along with starvation resulted in only 27,000 of the 350,000+ troops of his army to return healthy so that is true

Napoleon was defeated by the Russians at the Battle of Waterloo. That is False  because the Seventh Coalition made up of many countries dissatisfied with the dictatorship combined their forces against Napoleon and defeated him but Russia was not part of the coalition, much less a main part of it so they were defeated by the British and Prussians, NOT Russians

So the answer is C
