Correct Answer
A. England and France declared war against GermanyExplanation

This was a significant event in World War II as it marked the beginning of the conflict between the Allies (England, France, and later joined by the United States) and the Axis powers (Germany, Italy, and Japan). The declaration of war by England and France was a response to Hitler's aggressive actions and territorial expansion, and it ultimately led to a long and devastating war that reshaped the course of history.Rate this question:

Correct Answer

The U.S.A. was the epicenter of the crisis, with widespread bank failures, high unemployment rates, and a sharp decline in industrial production. The effects of the depression quickly spread to other countries, causing a global economic downturn. However, the initial trigger and the most significant impact were felt in the U.S.A.Rate this question:
