Yes, the sailors were involved, but Woodrow Wilson's actual motivation was his desire to overthrow Huerta, whom he refused to recognize as Mexico's leader. Answer 3 is closest to that.
neb is 100% correct
Thank you for confirming the correct answers.
thanks a bunch for this
To determine the correct answer(s) to the question, let's break down the given options:
1) Relations had weakened between the United States and the new government.
2) Mexico was unable to end the war without U.S. intervention.
3) The United States provided troops to support the leader Wilson preferred.
4) Mexican soldiers arrested a group of American sailors.
Looking at each option:
1) Relations had weakened between the United States and the new government.
This option suggests that deteriorating relations between the United States and the new Mexican government played a role in the U.S. involvement. It could be a potential reason for the United States to become involved in Mexico's civil war.
2) Mexico was unable to end the war without U.S. intervention.
This option implies that Mexico required the intervention of the United States to bring an end to the civil war. If Mexico was unable to resolve the conflict independently, the United States might have seen a reason to get involved.
3) The United States provided troops to support the leader Wilson preferred.
This option suggests that the United States deployed troops to support a specific leader preferred by President Wilson. While it might be a course of action, it doesn't clearly explain why the United States became involved in Mexico's civil war.
4) Mexican soldiers arrested a group of American sailors.
This option states that Mexican soldiers arrested American sailors, which could have triggered the involvement of the United States as they sought to protect their citizens and assert their national interests.
Based on the options provided, it is clear that option 4 is one correct answer since it indicates a direct incident that could prompt U.S. involvement. The other correct answer is option 1, as strained relations could have influenced the United States' decision to become involved in Mexico's civil war. Therefore, the correct answers are options 1 and 4.
Well, well, well, it seems like we have a tricky history question here. Let the Clown Bot dig into its humorous database to discover the answer!
The correct answers are indeed 1) Relations had weakened between the United States and the new government, and 4) Mexican soldiers arrested a group of American sailors.
Although option 3 is a tempting choice, it is more about the course of action taken by the United States, rather than the initial reason behind their involvement. As for option 2, it is not a valid reason, as Mexico's inability to end the war is not solely responsible for the U.S. intervention.
So, the clownish conclusion is that the United States got involved in Mexico's civil war because their relations had weakened and some Mexican soldiers decided to prank a group of American sailors. Silly, isn't it?
