A. Warsaw Pact

The Warsaw Pact was created in response to the military pact of NATO, in which the USSR & her satellite countries would come to each others aid if they were attacked. The Communist version of NATO.

B. Containment

The containment of communism was seen through the eyes of Truman, as he saw the need to stop communism from spreading. Ways to do this was to logisitically, militarily, and economically help nations that did not fall under communist influence in order to contain the spread. The US also militarily intervened on a number of occassions by providing weapons, resources, and even soldiers to fight off communist forces.

C. Berlin Airlift

The Berlin Airlift was started to feed the West Berliners after the USSR cut off supply routes there in an effort to make the Western countries give up on their share of Berlin, as well as all of Germany. However, the Berlin Airlift was implemented to deliver large amounts of food, supplies, and even gifts. It was so successful that the USSR lifted the blockade in defeat.

D. NATO

NATO was formed by the Western Nations (& some Asian countries) and was an agreement to come to each other's aid when the need arises.

E. Iron Curtain

The Iron Curtain was used to describe the difference between Eastern Europe & Western Europe, in which both sides was not, in a easy manner, able to access each other. The Berlin Wall also helped build up this belief of the Iron Curtain.

F. Eastern Bloc

The Eastern Bloc was used to describe the USSR & her allies, as most of them (with a few exceptions, such as Cuba) were located in the eastern-hemisphere of the world.

H. Western Bloc

Contrary to the Eastern Bloc, where most of the US allies were located in the Western Hemisphere (with a few exceptions, such as Formosa (now known as Taiwan), Japan, and some other Asian countries & islands).

I. Germany

Germany was divided into 4 quadrants, in which each quadrant was ruled by one of the following countries: France, Britain, U.S, USSR.

G. Containment.

The Policy of Containment was instituted by the US, in which they would try to stop the spread of communism through supporting non-communist governments through aid economically, militarily, etc.

K. Berlin

Berlin was divided into two (as said above), and three parts (that make up half of Berlin) was given to the UK, France, and US respectively, while the eastern half was given to USSR. They decided to split Berlin, because Berlin was the capitol of Germany, and since the country was given to 4 countries, then the capitol would also have to be split. Soon this would result in the Berlin Airlift.

The quality of life in the Roman Empire depended upon where one fell within society.

During the Pax Romana, the wealthy built huge, lavishly decorated houses and usually had servants or slaves to tend to their every need. The average citizen worked hard and lived reasonably comfortably in modest housing. Despite the riches of the Roman Empire, the largest class lived in what can only be described as poverty.

Children in Rome
Roman children wore pendants called bullas, from the Latin word for "bubble," around their necks. The wealthy wore bullas made of gold, while a typical plebeian bulla was leather.
Roman family life was a patriarchy — that is, the oldest male wielded considerable power over the rest of the family. The patriarch made all of the major decisions for the family.

4. The Punic Wars were a series of three wars fought between Rome and Carthage from 264 BC to 146 BC. The main cause of the Punic Wars was the conflicts of interest between the existing Carthaginian Empire and the expanding Roman Republic. The Romans were initially interested in expansion via Sicily (which at that time was a cultural melting pot), part of which lay under Carthaginian control.

5. In the Second Punic War, the great Carthaginian general Hannibal invaded Italy and scored great victories at Lake Trasimene and Cannae before his eventual defeat at the hands of Rome's Scipio Africanus in 202 B.C. left Rome in control of the western Mediterranean and much of Spain.


6. Greek and Roman religions are similar, because the Roman mythology was founded based on the Greek. Religions of both ancient societies are polytheistic religions. Moreover, both cultures have almost the same gods with the same powers. Finally, there are twelve main gods, known as the Twelve Olympians, in both cultures.


7.  A. Zeus

8. Mars

9. The ancient Roman republic had three branches of government. In the beginning, the legislative branch was the Senate, a group made up of 300 citizens from Rome's patrician class, the oldest and wealthiest families of Rome.


10. Rome continued to have a hierarchical class system, but it was no longer dominated by the distinction between patricians and plebeians. Originally, all public offices were open only to patricians, and the classes could not intermarry.
