After World War II, reconstruction of Europe was greatly facilitated by which of the following?
  1. The Treaty of Ghent
  2. The SALT talks
  3. The Marshall Plan
  4. The Warsaw pact
  5. The Truman Doctrine
Explanation
Answer: C - The Marshall Plan greatly facilitated the rebuilding of Europe. After World War I, the failure to constructively rebuild Europe led to international economic depression and wide spread political disruption. To avoid this, the United States offered all nations in Europe funds for rebuilding. This offer was extended to the Soviet Union as well as Germany, making it far more inclusive than previous post-war policy and a significant departure from the punitive peace of the Treaty of Versailles.
