How did the development of atomic weaponry affect American society? In what ways did it change the daily lives of Americans?

History

Answer:

The Red Scare

Explanation:

The development of atomic weapons by the US, as well as the eventual usage of them on Japan, led to a massive change in Amerian life. The most prominent of these was when the Soviet Union also figured out how to make atomic bombs using blueprints that Soviet spies stole from the US. When the Soviet Union made and tested its first atomic bomb, this started the Cold War. It led to a fierce arms race between the US and USSR.

Now how did this affect the lives of everyday Americans? During the Cold War, there was a societal phenomenon called the Red Scare, where ordinary citizens would accuse their fellow Americans of being secretly communist and/or having ties to the USSR. This reached its height during an era known as McCarthyism, where Senator James McCarthy went around advocating for this behavior, and even accused many of his fellow Congressmen of being communist.

How did the french revolution lead to the war with European nations?
vitfil [10]
France (still a constitutional monarchy) declared war on Prussia and Austria in 1792 for various reasons, among them French concerns about counter-revolutionary emigres in German-speaking countries and in the Austrian Netherlands, and fear that Austria and Prussia might intervene in French affairs (either to support Louis XVI or to take advantage of the internal dissent).

After the execution of Louis XVI, several more states, Great Britain and Spain among them, severed ties. The Republic then declared war on those countries, and a general European conflict ensued in one form or another for the next 22 years.

What are some reasons a texas cowboy might want to re-up for another cattle drive next year?
anastassius [24]
Aside from the pay, the reason Texas cowboys re-upped for a cattle drive was for the adventure. Although the drive might be boring at times, with weeks and sometimes months on the trail with nothing to see but dust and flat lands, natural and man-made challenges occurred occasionally. One of the most frightening challenges encountered in a drive was crossing a river. A swift river could carry a man, a horse or a cow. A slow moving river might camouflage  quicksand and deep holes both of which were dangerous also.
