Allies won WWII because of stronger industry</p>
<p>saint paul, the first pope, helped bring more people into the the christian community. There was little tigers question=economics, containment question, i forget the answer</p>
<p>^dark knight…its actually continued leadership. Germany and Soviets(when they were part of Axis) were actually stronger industrial wise. They elected the president for a third term, which lead to continued unity and strategy. and Japan was pretty industrial too. overall the industrial factor led towards axis, but allies won because hitler got greedy, which wasnt a choice lol</p>
<p>That must have been a question with a very deep meaning then! Lol.</p>
<p>I thought allies won because the US entered the war? But that wasn’t a choice.</p>
<p>And this is my 500th post! Yay!</p>
<p>i put strong industry. germany was industrial but not its allies i dont think. allies had USSR, US, Britain which were more industrial.</p>
<p>I put industry. I narrowed it down to continued leadership and industry, but chose the latter because even though I knew there was continued leadership, I wasn’t sure if that was necessary a significant cause for Allied victory. Plus, Hitler and Tojo were both pretty much in control until the end of WWII.</p>

<p>Oh, I just found my Barron’s AP World book…</p>
<p>From Barron’s:</p>
<p>"Shifting Balance of World War II:</p>
<p>Just as important [as USSR and US entering the war], a different set of factors came into play. The Axis Powers’ advantage lay in the skill and quality of Germany’s and Japan’s armed forces. Allied advantages, especially once the Soviets and Americans became involved, were geographic size, huge reserves of humanpower, <b>large economies</b>, and abundant natural resources (probably also related to industy)."</p>
<p>^is armed forces not also industry? didnt the question say which helped bring end to the war?</p>
<p>for st paul. was there another choice that was similar?</p>
<p>edit: #49 was cross cultural comparison i think</p>
<p>whats usually minimum for 800? 75?</p>
<p>^is there anyway we can question the WWII one? I just looked it up. and the answer was like blockades of resources</p>
<p>Why would Asia and Africa be ****ed about Germany in the Treaty OF Versailles(what did they think it lacked).
a. stripping of colonies(treaty did do this, so idt it could be this?)
b. prevent future buildup of arms
c. ?
d.?</p>
<p>its stripping colonies, and 49 is gender biased. if it was crosscomparison, it wouldve gave us the other side of perspective but it only talked about women and men’s job of egypt.</p>
<p>I didn’t think it was “gender biased” because it was really only contrasting women’s roles…I put cross comparison. </p>
<p>And I also put that Versailles didn’t prevent future breakup of arms…it actually did strip German of it’s colonies. And it also forced Germany to disarm. However, Germany I think later did build up arms (Nazi invasions).</p>
<p>@collegebound41: I don’t think armed forces is industry, because it has nothing to do with commerce…</p>
<p>it was talking about how in egypt, men do this and that while women do this and that. it didnt say anything about any roles in greece (only the citation said it was from hellinstic age)</p>
<p>and the choice i chose was not “strip german of its colonies”. it was more like “didn’t end colonizations” b/c asian countries like india was looking forward to that so did african colonies.</p>
<p>But it did say it was different from the rest of the world (or what was common in other places). It was stated rather early on too, the description just sort of expanded on this.</p>
<p>Oh…did anyone remember if there was a question on the League of Nations?</p>
<p>There were also questions about:</p>
<p>*The role of glasnost and perestroika - collapse of Soviet Union
*What leaders of African independence movements had in common - educated in Western universities (verified)</p>
<p>^i put strip colonies but idk what the answer was. i think we’re talking about different greece and egypt ones. there was one about men being allowed to do church duties, which where gender bias or a similar answer was correct.</p>
<p>There was a question on league of nations??</p>
