The correct answer is the detonation of a bomb on Russian soil.

In 1949, the Americans were astonished to see that the U.S.S.R. had detonated their own atomic bomb (as a test) in their grounds. It had been only 4 years since the detonation of the atomic bombs of Hiroshima and Nagasaki and they considered it could not be sufficient time to develop the atomic bomb by themselves. Suspicion of espionage was their main option. Time proved them right. Nearly a dozen Soviet spies were convicted of passing information to the Soviets during this period about the atomic bomb in what was called the "Manhattan Project", the most famous spy being Emil Julius Klaus Fuchs. After this experience, the United States began to invest a large quantity of money in protecting their secret projects and fighting espionage.

According to historian Arnold Toynbee, Ibn Khaldun developed “philosophy of history”. Why was this a significant achievement?
julsineya [31]

Arnold J. Toynbee (1889 – 1975) was a British and philosopher remembered for his great “Study of History” which is a big work of 12 volumes that analyze 21 civilizations; their rises and falls.

His work is a combination of philosophical and objective thoughts, so this insures the combination of facts that are analyzed from two perspectives, because he is using concrete historical events combined with his philosophical and empirical ideas. That is why  many historians, philosophers, sociologists, political scientists are interested in his books and how civilizations emerged, grew, declined and dissolve themselves.
