He used vivid, emotional words throughout the speech.

President Franklin D. Roosevelt: Yesterday, December 7, 1941—a date which will live in infamy—the United States of America was suddenly and deliberately attacked by naval and air forces of the Empire of Japan.  The label “infamy” foreshadows the tone of the entire speech.

The central purpose of this speech was to promote a war against japan.  Roosevelt's speech had an immediate and long-lasting impact on American politics. Congress declared war on Japan, with only one Representative, Jeannette Rankin, voting against the declaration.

Effectively the correct answers are:

1. Algeria - It fought a long and costly war for liberation form France. In this case, the FLN (Front de Libération Nationale) leaded a civil war against against France. Mainly this war and anticolonialism feeling had origin after WWII in which many Algerians helped France, but after the war they weren't treated the same way than those who left in Metropolitan France.

As well as that, it is possible to say that it was a long and costly war because France was ready to lose any other African territory, excepting Algeria. At the end, this generated in high efforts by France that represented difficulties for Algeria, leading to time and large money.

2. Ghana - It was named after an ancient African kingdom. In 1957 Ghana was the first Colony that reached independence. Because of this, leaders decided to take a name that represented quite power and at the same time  were highly related to Africa. For those reasons, they chose GHANA as an ancient empire that wasn't located in the countries land (it was more in what we know as Mali), but that was recognized by its economical power through the Sahara.

3. Democratic Republic of Congo - It had a civil war between the national government and Katanga province. The Democratic Republic of Congo was originally controlled by Belgium. Nevertheless, in the rich south region, Katanga, people revolted against Belgium power and even other tribes in the country. At the end, it generated not only the independence of the whole Republic, but a long civil war in the now independed country and many other problems that can be traced until today.

4. Kenya - The Mau Mau rebellion led to its eventual independence from Great Britain. Mau Mau was a guerilla that fought against the Great Britain since 1952. Their obtective was basicly the Kenyan independence that they reache in 1960.

Hatshy [7]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Unfortunately, you forgot to include the excerpt to know what you are talking about.

Although you did not include the excerpt, the name of the text, or the author, we can do some research and help you with the following general comments.

One historical event in the period 1787 to 1803 that would be used to support Ellis's interpretation is the United States President Thomas Jefferson's historical interpretation about the approval of the Louisiana Purchase.

For historian Joseph J. Ellis, the issue was the way President Thomas Jefferson proceeded to buy the Louisiana territory to the French, knowing that he could have been going beyond his powers as the head of the executive branch. The question for historian Ellis is not that his decision over the territory was right, but the way he implemented that decision that challenged his powers as President. Thomas Jefferson had big hopes that the next step for the American government was in the conquest of the western part of the United States.
