One of the factors that contributed to the rise of the kingdom of Kush was the brief fall of the kingdom of Egypt. With the Hyksos' conquer of Lower Egypt and their subsequent rule over the same, the kingdom of Kush became the superpower in Upper Egypt.
Kublai Khan is known and revered for his civilian and
administrative, not his military achievements. Grandson of Genghis Khan,
Kublai sought to govern rather than to exploit and devastate the vast
domains bequeathed to him by two generations of Mongol conquests. He
made the transition from a nomadic conqueror from the steppes to
effective ruler of a sedentary society. Ironically, however, his reign
witnessed the Mongols’ most remarkable military success, the subjugation
of the Southern Sung dynasty of China, and simultaneously their
greatest military fiascos, the failed naval expeditions against Japan
and Java.

The US government took several actions to stop the spread of communism including:
A) Giving financial aid to countries in hopes that they would not be taken over by the Soviet Union. In the Truman Doctrine and Marshall Plan, the US gives aid to several different European countries after World War II. Between the two laws, the US gave over $13 billion to these countries to ensure their economic stability.
B) The US government was willing to get involved in several different wars- The US government supported South Korea and South Vietnam in the Korean and Vietnam Wars. The reasoning behind this was they wanted to stop South Korea and Vietnam from falling under the control of the communist governments of North Korean and Vietnam.
