1. the author most likely included the quote “the ten years war was fought from the top down, that is why it failed; this one 1895 surges from the bottom up, that is why it will triumph” to: a) undermine the legitimacy of the 1879 guerra chiquita compared to the 10 - year war. b) emphasize the strategic superiority of elite military tactics during the guerra chiquita. c) illustrate a key transformation in cuban revolutionary participation and ideas. d) discredit máximo gómez’s contributions to the independence movement. 6) which of the following best characterizes the relationship between the ten years’ war and the guerra chiquita, according to the passage? a) the two were completely unrelated conflicts with separate goals. b) the guerra chiquita was merely a repetition of the earlier war with no significant changes. c) while distinct, the guerra chiquita was a continuation of unresolved issues from the ten years’ war. d) the ten years’ war influenced the guerra chiquita only in terms of leadership style.

Explanation:

For question 5, the quote highlights the difference in the nature of the two - wars (top - down vs bottom - up), which reflects a key transformation in Cuban revolutionary participation and ideas. It doesn't undermine the legitimacy of the 1879 Guerra Chiquita, nor emphasize the superiority of elite military tactics, nor discredit Máximo Gómez.
For question 6, the Guerra Chiquita was a continuation of the issues that were not resolved in the Ten Years' War, showing a connection between the two conflicts rather than being completely unrelated or a mere repetition, and the connection is more than just leadership style.

Answer:

1. C. Illustrate a key transformation in Cuban revolutionary participation and ideas.
2. C. While distinct, the Guerra Chiquita was a continuation of unresolved issues from the Ten Years' War.
