There are four major types of employee benefits many employers offer: medical insurance, life insurance, disability insurance, and retirement plans.
The right answer is the development of the atomic bomb.
The full-scale development of a Nuclear bomb came after the Japanese attack in Pearl Harbor, and knowing Germany was leading nuclear uranium research. The project Manhattan was created. The project joined the most renowned scientist of the century with industry, military and thousands of ordinary Americans working at localities across the country to interpret original scientific discoveries into an entirely new kind of weapon, the Atomic Bomb. At its peak, the project employed 130,000 workers and, by the end of the war, had spent $2.2 billion.
Between 500 BC and 300 BC, the Republic saw its territory expand from central Italy to the entire Mediterranean world. In the next century, Rome grew to dominate North Africa, the Iberian Peninsula, Greece, and what is now southern France. During the last two centuries of the Roman Republic, it grew to dominate the rest of modern France, as well as much of the east.
The precise event which signalled the end of the Roman Republic and the transition into the Roman Empire is a matter of interpretation. Towards the end of the period a selection of Roman leaders came to so dominate the political arena that they exceeded the limitations of the Republic as a matter of course. Historians have variously proposed the appointment of Julius Caesar as perpetual dictator in 44 BC, the defeat of Mark Antony at the Battle of Actium in 31 BC, and the Roman Senate's grant of extraordinary powers to Octavian (Augustus) under the first settlement in 27 BC, as candidates for the defining pivotal event ending the Republic.
Many of Rome's legal and legislative structures can still be observed throughout Europe and the rest of the world by modern nation state and international organisations. The Romans' Latin language has influenced grammar and vocabulary across parts of Europe and the world.
a: communist countries
During Cold War, it started right after the WW2 ended and finished in 1989 with the fall of the Berlin Wall, the United States and the Sovietic Union were fighting over political ideology dividing the world in two: capitalist and communist blocs.
Both great powers did not get to have direct armed conflicts, instead there were indirect hostilities in third countries territories. These conflicts were sponsored by the US or the Sovietic Union: for example in the Missile Cuban Crisis, 1962, the American air force base were in the south of the island and the Sovietic missile bases were place in La Habana, the north of the island.
During the Vietnam war, the American bases were in south Vietnam and the Sovietic bases were in north Vietnam.
