In Europe, communism did fall.
1. The Solidarity movement in led by ousting the communist government.
2. Other communist nations quickly followed by booting the government out, including: Hungary, Czechoslovakia, East Germany, and Romania.
3. The symbol of the Cold War was the Berlin Wall. In December of 1989, the wall came down after 45 years.
4. Even larger, the U.S.S.R. broke apart.
<span>1. Gorbachev's glasnost and perestroika were opening things up within the Soviet Union. </span>
2. Soviet hardliners tried a military ouster of Gorbachev. Russian president Boris Yeltsin helped stop the coup attempt.
<span>3. Gorbachev later resigned in 1991 and the U.S.S.R. busted up into 15 independent republics. These were loosely united in what was called the "Commonwealth of Independent States." Gorbachev's legacy would be that he tore down the old communistic Soviet structure. </span>
<span>5. The message seemed clear: the Cold War was over, the democracies had won and communism had lost. Bush spoke of a "new world order" where democratic republics would negotiate rather than fight. </span>
<span>The United States with the fall of the USSR: With the Cold War over, military cuts were made. 34 military bases were closed, a $52 billion order for navy attack planes was canceled, defense plants closed. </span>
Answer:
Shifting cultivation is an agricultural system in which plots of land are cultivated temporarily, then abandoned while post-disturbance fallow vegetation is allowed to freely grow while the cultivator moves on to another plot. The period of cultivation is usually terminated when the soil shows signs of exhaustion or, more commonly, when the field is overrun by weeds. The length of time that a field is cultivated is usually shorter than the period over which the land is allowed to regenerate by lying fallow.
Answer:
pressure from within earth's crust
Answer:
The method that scientists use to discern this information is similar to medical CT scans that bounce X-rays through the human body to make three-dimensional pictures of internal tissue. In an analogous manner, a method called seismic tomography uses hundreds to thousands of earthquakes recorded by dozens of stations to measure the speed of seismic waves through the Earth--data that allow geophysicists to make three-dimensional pictures of structures beneath the surface. Scientists compare these seismic velocities and infer the composition by comparing them with average, thermally undisturbed values.

Answer:
<u>Pluto is dwarf planet composed of nitrogen ice, methane and carbon monoxide.</u>
Explanation:
Designated as a minor planet pluto is considered to be on the outer boundaries of the planets, being found in the 1930s is the ninth largest and the tenth object orbiting the sun.
Its atmosphere is mainly composed of methane, nitrogen and carbon monoxide and ice. Having a mass of that of the moon, it has mountains made up of ice masses its color varies from dark brown to orange to white. The latest studies show that pluto has an age of more than 180,000 years.
According to some studies it has mass wasting and tectonic like processes in operational at its surface. It is surface gravity is 0.63g and has five known natural satellites. A mean density of 1.854±0.006 g/cm cube.
