Chicago is a midwestern city that experienced a major fire during the late 1800s.

The Great Chicago Fire was a blaze that raged in Chicago, Illinois, in the United States, between October 8 and 10, 1871. Over 17,000 buildings and about 3.3 square miles of the city were destroyed by the fire, which also left over 300 people dead and more than 100,000 people homeless.

For many years, a goat that was once ejected from Wrigley Field was to blame for the Cubs' inability to go to the World Series. And for well over a century, the Great Chicago Fire of 1871 was started by a cow owned by Mrs. O'Leary.

The fire raged into the following day before ultimately being brought under control on October 10, when rain provided firefighting efforts a much-needed assist. An estimated 300 persons perished in the Great Chicago Fire, along with 100,000 more.

Conservative people in the United States usually support the fiscal ideas of the Republican Party. They consider that conservative philosophy on taxation could potentially help the economy in that more investors and companies would be more prone to invest their money in creating new jobs if taxes are reasonable. More jobs and more companies, mean more sales and consumer activities that could help move the economy again.

These conservative people are against liberal and welfare state concepts that try to raise more taxes to create social programs to help the people in need.

Why were the Vietcong so successful against the United States?
kaheart [24]
Two of the major reasons why the Vietcong was so successful against the United States was because they practiced "guerrilla warfare," which allowed them to constantly ambush US forces--and because they were being supplied with weapons from China and Russia.
