The Palace of Versailles, or Chateau de Versailles (in French: Château de Versailles) is a building that served as a royal residence in past centuries. The palace is located in the municipality of Versailles, near Paris, in the Isle of France. Its construction was ordered by King Louis XIV, and is one of the most important monarchical architectural complexes in Europe. With 7.3 million visitors in 2012, it is also one of the most important tourist sites in France.  With its three palaces, its gardens and its park, Versailles is an immense domain. Although Louis XIII built a hunting lodge there with a garden, Louis XIV is its true creator, since it gave it its breadth and determined its destiny. Louis XIV left Paris and decided to build Versailles as a small city far from problems.

The Winter Palace (Russian: Зимний дворец) which is located in Saint Petersburg, Russia, was between 1732 and 1917, the official residence of the Russian tsars. It is currently the headquarters of the Hermitage Museum. It is located between the Avenue Dvortsóvaya Náberezhnaya that borders the Nevá River and the Palace Square, near the site where the original Winter Palace of Pedro El Grande was located; The current Winter Palace is the fourth that was built and underwent continuous remodeling between the end of 1750 and 1837, when it was seriously damaged by a fire being reconstructed immediately.The attack on the palace in 1917 became an icon of the Russian revolution. The palace was built on a monumental scale whose objective was to be a reflection of the grandeur and power of Imperial Russia. From the palace, the tsar and autocrat of all the Russias ruled over a territory of 22,400,000 km² (almost 1/6 of the continental surface) and over 176,4 million people. It is the product of the design of numerous architects, among which the work of Bartolomeo Rastrelli stands out, in what was called the Elizabethan Baroque style (at the time of the reign of Elizabeth I of Russia); The green and white palace has the shape of an elongated rectangle. The palace has 1,786 doors, 1,945 windows, 1,500 rooms and 117 stairs. Its main facade measures 150 m in length and 30 m in height. The reconstruction of 1837 did not change the exterior appearance, but large sections of its interior were redesigned in a variety of styles and tastes, which is why the palace is described as "a nineteenth-century palace inspired by a Rococo-style model."

How did the New Deal programs differ from president Hoover's attempt tom combat the depression?
Alekssandra [29.7K]

The difference is that Roosevelt was ready to do more to solve the problems brought about by the Great Depression while Hoover was more hesitant to let government intervene.  The programs he launched such as the National Credit Corporation, the Reconstruction Finance Corporation, and the Emergency Relief and Construction Act <span>came late to do any good.  Upon assuming office, Roosevelt quickly launched various programs to solve the problems.  In the end, Roosevelt was right in his approach of Government intervention because at the time,  people needed support to uplift their lives.</span>

Why did France fall so easily to the Nazis?
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

in France there was a very strong support of extreme right (this terms is quite broad and does not include so-called nazism) already before the Great War. After 1870 French extreme right became quite powerful and had a stimulating support of intellectuals (Barres, Maurras) who were able to stimulate new generations ...a big part of intellectual elite invited Mussolini´s coup and in 30s there was a hayday of French right. When Hitler came in poweŕ, he had a strong support among French. But French extreme-right was frequently more conservative than modern (nazism).

Explanation:

Jacques Doriot (leader and founder of PPF), writer Pierre Drieu la Rochelle, Robert Brasillach or Céline had many motives to support nazism. They believed in something that could be called "revolution of the body and instinct", the criticized democracy of the IIIrd republic because of its liberalism and intellectualism. They wanted strong leader and politics of body and instinct. But they were never united. In the government there was a division between "marchalistes" (followers of Pétain) and "lavalistes" (folloowers of pro-nazi laval).
