Answer:

The Cold War was a period of geopolitical tension between the Soviet Union and the United States and their respective allies, the Eastern Bloc and the Western Bloc, after World War II. The period is generally considered to span the 1947 Truman Doctrine to the 1991 dissolution of the Soviet Union. The term "cold" is used because there was no large-scale fighting directly between the two superpowers, but they each supported major regional conflicts known as proxy wars. The conflict was based around the ideological and geopolitical struggle for global influence by the two powers, following their temporary alliance and victory against Nazi Germany in 1945.[1][2] The doctrine of mutually assured destruction (MAD) discouraged a pre-emptive attack by either side. Aside from the nuclear arsenal development and conventional military deployment, the struggle for dominance was expressed via indirect means such as psychological warfare, propaganda campaigns, espionage, far-reaching embargoes, rivalry at sports events and technological competitions such as the Space Race.

What was the Mandate of Heaven?
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

The Mandate of Heaven (Tianming), also known as Heaven's Mandate, was the divine source of authority and the right to rule of China's early kings and emperors. The ancient god or divine force known as Heaven or Sky had selected this particular individual to rule on its behalf on earth.

The Zhou created the Mandate of Heaven: the idea that there could be only one legitimate ruler of China at a time, and that this ruler had the blessing of the gods. They used this Mandate to justify their overthrow of the Shang, and their subsequent rule.

Explanation:

The Mandate either said or implied three major things. (1) The right to rule is granted by the gods. This gave the ruler religious power. (2) The right to rule is only granted if the ruler cares about his people more than he cares about himself.

Which of these statements would Winston Churchill most likely agree with?
pshichka [43]

The correct answer is Victory must be attained at all costs.

Churchill was arrested and sent to a prisoner-of-war camp in Pretoria, where he fled, walking 500km and insisted on staying in Africa, participating in several battles. This story made him a national hero when he returned in 1900.

He entered parliament in the same year, supported by the conservative party.

He married Clementine, and together they had 5 children.

In 1911, he took over as First Lord of the Admiralty, a highly prestigious position in the British Navy and in this post, during the First World War he was responsible for the disastrous Gallipoli and Dardanelles campaign. Received on the peninsula by well-prepared Ottomans, the offensive resulted in the death of 50,000 British and French. Churchill was fired from his position at the Admiralty.

After the Russian Communist Revolution, Churchill was an active voice against the expansion of communism in Europe.

He lived a political decline in the 1920s and 1930s, experiencing relative political isolation, dedicating himself to reading and writing. Winston is the only British prime minister to receive a Nobel Prize for literature.

From 1933, during Hitler's rise to Germany, Churchill raised his voice against what he considered a serious threat.

He was constantly going public, suggesting English rearmament and preparation for an inevitable conflict. He criticized the government for its passivity in the face of Hitler's demands.

In 1939, England declared war on Germany after the Nazis invaded Poland. At the same moment Churchill takes over the Admiralty again, in the same position he had been years before.

In 1940, in the middle of a German invasion of France, Winston Churchill was appointed Prime Minister. His inaugural speech was simple: "I have nothing to offer, other than blood, suffering, tears and sweat."
