select the three factors that allowed several new political parties to form in germany.
the worldwide recession
dissatisfaction with the current government
love of the allies for their assistance in developing the country
hatred of the allies for imposing severe restrictions
the worldwide depression

Explanation:

1. For question 7: In 1931, Japanese military forces invaded the northern Chinese territory of Manchuria, establishing a puppet state there. The other options are incorrect: Hong Kong was a British colony, Shanghai was a major city not the northern territory in question, and Mongolia was not the target of this 1931 invasion.
2. For question 8: Hirohito (Emperor Showa) was the reigning emperor of Japan during the 1930s and WWII. Amaterasu is a Shinto sun goddess, not an emperor, while Mutsuhito (Meiji Emperor) and Yoshihito (Taisho Emperor) preceded Hirohito and were not in power at this time.
3. For question 9: The worldwide recession (Great Depression) created economic chaos, dissatisfaction with the ineffective Weimar government led to unrest, and hatred of the Allies over harsh Treaty of Versailles restrictions all allowed radical new political parties (like the Nazi Party) to rise in Germany. The idea of "love of the Allies for their assistance" is incorrect, as the Allies imposed punitive measures, not aid.

Answer:

1. ○ Manchuria
2. ○ Hirohito
