What was one of the effects of the battle of the bulge?

 Germany was weakened and could not recover from how much effort it had expended in the Battle of the Bulge.

Explanation:

The Battle of the Bulge, also known as the Battle of the Ardennes, was an offensive attempt by German forces to push back the front line of Allied forces that had encroached into previously German-controlled territory.  Winston Churchill is the one who first referred to the "bulge" that the Germans had pushed through into Allied forces.  

The Germans were initially quite successful in their offensive.  However, Allied forces managed to hold their ground after the initial "bulge" of the Germans.  Eventually, the Allies pushed Germany's forces back.  And the effort overall cost Germany too much.  The Allies suffered about  75,000 casualties, but Germany lost 120,000 men and much military equipment and supplies.  Germany was exhausting its strength.  The overall result of the Battle of the Bulge was that it crippled and demoralized Germany's effort to continue against Allied advances.

the bar kochba rebellion (132-135) against the roman empire, also known as the second jewish-roman war, was the second major jewish revolt in judea and the last of the great jewish-roman wars.

after the first jewish-roman war of the years 66-73, the roman authorities took measures to crush any new attempt of rebellion in judea. his political situation was modified and instead of a prefect a governor of praetorian rank was appointed, and in the ruins of jerusalem the seat of a complete roman legion, the legio x fretensis was established.

the political and religious direction of the jewish people was left in the hands of the sanhedrin, with initial headquarters in yavne.

the direct causes of the rebellion vary according to the source. the roman historian dio cassius (155-229) attributes the revolt to the decision of hadrian to found in the place of jerusalem a roman city called aelia capitolina (aelia by its own name and capitolina in honor of the roman god jupiter). on the other hand, the jewish sources, while recognizing this resolution as true, assign higher priority to the decrees dictated by hadrian that forbade the brit milah (circumcision), the respect of the sabbath and the laws of purity in the family.

hadrian's intention was to "civilize" and incorporate the jews once and for all into the greco-roman culture. for greek and roman culture, circumcision was an intolerable mutilation.

the jewish tradition tells in the midrash tanjuma a meeting between rabbi akiva and the governor turnus rufus, where he asked for an explanation about the circumcision.

an additional legion, the legio vi ferrata, moved to the province to maintain order, and work began in the year 131 after the governor of judea, turnus rufus performed the founding ceremony of aelia capitolina. a roman coin with the inscription aelia capitolina was struck in the year 132.

the tannaim rabbi akiva, who without being named nasi directed the sanhedrin, convinced the other members to support the imminent rebellion.

the jewish leaders carefully planned the second rebellion to avoid the numerous errors that had been committed in the first one. in the year 132 the rebellion led by bar kochba quickly expanded from modiim throughout the country, defeating the x roman legion based in jerusalem and destroying the xxii roman legion that had come from egypt.
