Why do many historians believe that total war made rational peacetime settlements more difficult than did earlier types of warfare?
They believed that this increased the difficulty of rational peacetime settlements even more difficult because anything could be a target in total war, from food to vehicles.

Define pure Aryans?
There is not such a race. It is a designation of a hypothetical language of the Indo-European family. Therefore an Aryan is a person who purportedly descended from prehistoric people who spoke the language. The Nazis used it to designate someone who was not of Jewish descent. This is the reason that hate groups such as the White Supremacist refer to a "pure Aryan" race. Their misunderstanding of the issue is not surprising when one considers the absence of rational(not to mention normal) mentality of the persons involved in such despicable organizations.
What realism theory says about war?
Realism theory in international relations posits that war is an inevitable outcome of the anarchic nature of the international system, where states prioritize their own survival and interests.

Consequently, war is seen as a rational response to the threat posed by other states, reflecting the inherent uncertainty and distrust in international politics.
How of the following best describes the idea of mutually assured destruction?
Mutually assured destruction (MAD) is a military strategy and framework of deterrence which posits that if two opposing sides possess the capability to inflict unacceptable damage on each other through nuclear weapons, neither will initiate conflict for fear of total annihilation. This doctrine suggests that the sheer threat of catastrophic retaliation prevents either side from launching a first strike. Therefore, MAD relies on the assumption that rational actors will prioritize survival over aggression.
