Aneli [31]

Answer:

North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) and the Warsaw Pact

Explanation:

In the mid 1950's, the tensions between the communist east and capitalist west were constantly on the rise. This led to the formation of military alliances from both sides. The Western countries formed NATO, a military organization initially consisted of USA, Canada, and Western European countries. The Soviets responded adequately, and they formed the Warsaw Pact with their allies, which was also a military organization. The reason for the formation of these two organizations was to protect the interests of the member countries, be it safety, political, economical, social, or zones of influence. Both organizations were constantly pilling up more and more weaponry and were constantly increasing the armies, heavily investing in its development, equipment, and training.

What led to the storming of the bastille and therefore to the start of the french revolution?
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

The storming of the Bastille was caused by multiple reasons that were building up in the French society for some time. France was in a bad situation. The economy was in dire state, largely because of the bad policies and the French intervention in the United States. The aristocracy was acting terribly towards the ordinary people who were suffering and in the verge of survival.

After the initial few attempts failed to reason the king to make certain reforms and to improve the countries situation and the situation of the people in it, the French people decided that enough is enough and that they will take things into their own hands.

The medieval castle, also a prison, and a symbol of the aristocracy of France, Bastille, got broken into it by the people. They released the prisoners who were sentenced because of refusal to shoot at the citizens.

The ordinary people outnumber the aristocracy by far, as the aristocracy was only 2% of the population, so the people, united, managed to take down the king and the aristocracy with relative ease.
