Answer:
The Oslo Accords happened most recently, in 1993.
Explanation:
The Oslo Agreements are a collection of agreements between the Palestine Liberation Organization and the Israeli Government. The Oslo I Accord was signed in Washington, D.C. in 1993 and the Oslo II Treaty in Taba, Egypt in 1995. These agreements were the start of the process known as the 'Oslo Process' which was an attempt to reach peace and to give Palestinians the right to self-determination. The secret negotiations between the two sides, which gave the name to the accords, began in Oslo, the capital of Norway. The outcome of this negotiation was recognition of the State of Israel by the PLO and recognition of the PLO by the State of Israel. Both parties were considered partners during the negotiations.
The Oslo Negotiations gave way to the Palestinian National Authority, which is responsible for the autonomy of parts of the West Bank and Gaza Strip. The accords, however, did not create the State of Palestine.

UATG Shareholders
Re: Umbra Applied Technologies Group, Inc.
2018 Chairman’s Letter
(UATG:PK) Year 2018
Chairman's Letter
“UAT Group and its subsidiaries, operate with the understanding that what we do matters and as such our decisions bear consequences.”
Dear Fellow Shareholders,
First, I would like to wish everyone a prosperous New Year and I hope everyone enjoyed the holidays.
As the Chief Executive of a publicly traded company I am the fiduciary for all shareholders, many of whom have invested in UAT Group based on long-term goals such as retirement or to pay for a childs higher education. As such, I advocate and otherwise direct corporate governance practices that are in keeping with long-term value creation for our shareholders and clients. Last year I asked my executive team to help me outline a new strategic frame-work for long-term value creation that could be completed within the year. I am pleased to report that we have been successful in our execution and were so against significant odds.
Over the course of the past 12 months, many of the assumptions on which our plans were based, including low interest rates on capital and an expectation for continued globalization, have failed to sustain despite indicators to the contrary. With U.S. reflation, increasing rates, renewed growth, the increasing turbulence in Asia as a catalyst to geopolitical tensions, the prospective withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union reshaping Europe and the United States undergoing a fundamental reformation of long held fiscal strategies; the economic environment has been and remains quite volatile. This does not mean that this company or the market at large is expected to be impacted negatively but it is a factor when crafting a long-term execution strategy.
The correct order is:
3. A system of social classes based on birth evolved;
1. Castes are rigid and inflexible; people are born into a caste and cannot leave it;
4. Castes are a prominent part of people's lives, but people may have been able to move around;
2. Discrimination based on caste is determined to be illegal;
The caste system is a system with very long history, and it has been part of the Indian culture for centuries. At the begging, when it was implemented into the society, the caste system was very rigid and strict, and people were destined from birth to a certain social status for the rest of their lives. This lasted for a very long period of time. In the past century, the caste system started to be a bit more flexible, so certain individuals that showed greater qualities were able to progress into the caste system. And recently, the caste system, and discrimination based on it, have been made illegal in the country, so officially it has come to an end.
The Estates-General was established in 1789 by King Philip IV of France as a collective group of nobles, clergymen, and commoners to unite France as a single national unity. They served together as a single legislative body of the French Government. All social classes were given equal voting rights and rights to enforce taxation laws. As a result, privileges were not reserved exclusively for the wealthy people. The establishment of Estates-General was one of the reasons for the French Revolution.
Hope this helped a bit
