President Bush ordered military strikes in Afghanistan because the Taliban has allowed terrorists to operate out of  Afghanistan.

Explanation:

The war in Afghanistan began on 7 October 2001, when the United States, Great Britain, Australia and the Northern Alliance of Afghanistan launched a military operation called Enduring Freedom. The main cause of the invasion was the terrorist attacks in the United States on September 11, as the American government blamed the Taliban regime of supporting and hosting terrorist groups within their territory. Therefore, the invasion was carried out with the aim of destroying the Al-Qaeda terrorist network that used Afghanistan as its main base of operations, as well as overturning the Taliban regime that supported it.

On 20 September 2001, President George W. Bush demanded that the Taliban extradite Osama Bin Laden and destroy Al-Qaeda bases in Afghanistan. On 5 October, the Taliban offered that Bin Laden be tried by an Afghan court, but only if the US provided the Taliban regime with solid evidence of Bin Laden's guilt, in a movement that gave him effective time to run away from the country. The United States correctly interpreted this movement as a nasty trick, and launched a military operation in Afghanistan on October 7.

the articles of confederation only set up the continental congress at the federal level. there were no executive or judicial branches except within the states. the states were allowed to keep every right that was not specifically given to congress. the bonding of the states was through a 'firm league of friendship' that best served as a defense agreement against invasion. states were not allowed to use taxes as a way to discourage treaties, and states were extremely limited in their dealings with foreign nations.

not many historians today talk about the strengths of the articles of confederation, likely because of how unpopular the document quickly became. the articles did set the legislative body, congress, as the highest power in the nation because of the fear of monarchy. congress had the sole power to declare war, assign treaties, entertain foreign relations, and operate post offices. disputes between states and territorial issues were to be brought to congress. the document also stipulated that canada was allowed to enter the union if they desired.

there were more weaknesses than strengths under the articles of confederation. the lack of power given to the continental congress strangled the federal government. the articles gave congress the power to pass laws but no power to enforce those laws. if a state did not support a federal law, that state could simply ignore it. congress had no power to levy taxes or regulate trade. without a federal court system or executive leader, there would be no way to enforce these laws, either. amending the articles of confederation would also require a unanimous decision, which would be extremely difficult.

the correct answer is "c: merchants" and "e. soldiers".

the song dynasty was known as the first government in the world to introduce paper currency. it was also the first chinese government which established a permanent standing navy. finally, the first compass was introduced during this period of government.

all of these innovations heavily affected commerce in a positive way. printed money dynamize commerce within the borders of the empire due to an easier way to quantify value during the trade. the introduction of the compass trade routes to be faster. finally, the introduction of a standing navy regulate trade routes.

regarding military affairs, gunpowder was created during this period. this was a tremendous improvement that was widely utilized by the military in order to innovate in the manufacturing of weapons.
