Why was Germany's central location in Europe an advantage when it was on the offensive in World War 2?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Many of the countries that Germany first attacked were ones that bordered it such as Poland, Denmark, Belgium, The Netherlands, Luxembourg and France. The fact that Germany was central meant that Hitler could attack many countries Germany bordered which would mean he could also get through to other countries that bordered the ones that his army had invaded.

Why are there so many British soldiers in Massachusetts and the other companies?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

In October 1768, British troops landed in Boston to enforce the Townshend duties (taxes on paint, paper, tea, etc., passed in June 1767) and clamp down on local radicals. The troops' presence doesn't sit well with locals and leads to street fights. One clash between soldiers and a mob in March 1770 will leave five dead. Radicals will call it the Boston Massacre, while the British will call it the incident on King Street.

It was essentially to enforce the Townshend Duties, a controversial tax imposed on the colonies during the political strife prior to armed rebellion.
