isolationism
pacification
appeasement

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

The correct answer is: "Domino theory"

The Domino theory emerged and spread during the 1950s and 1960s. It firmly believed that, when a region fell under communist influence, soon nearby regions would follow the same direction, causing a sort of domino effect. This argument was used by the US goverment to justify its interventions in third countries and proxy wars (such as the Vietnam conflict), during the Cold War era. US leaders often said they did so to prevent that a certain country, and in turn its whole region, would fall under the influence of the URSS.

Answer 2
Answer: The United States supported South Vietnam because of President Eisenhower's domino theory. He believed if South Vietnam fell to Communism the rest of Southeast Asia would also become Communist.

Answers

Answer:

d. governmental power became centralized under the shogun, while the emperor ruled in name only.

Explanation:

The Shogunate system was established in Japan by Tokugawa Ieyasu in 1603 and lasted till 1867. Under this system, the Shoguns upheld all major executive powers while the emperor remained confined within the capital, Kyoto.

The Shoguns served as the landlords among the distributed regions in the country. Each regional administration had a Shogun who controlled the whole political, social and economical spheres of that particular region.

This system mobilized the powers of the emperor and controlled the whole administrative system. The emperor remained as the head of the country but ruled in name only.
