The Cold War
was a competition between the United States and the Soviet Union in
every conceivable arena – even space. When the Soviets launched the
world’s first artificial satellite, Sputnik I,
in October 1957, it set off alarm bells in the Eisenhower
administration and created intense fear and anxiety among the US public
that the Soviet Union had surpassed the technological achievements of
the United States.Sputnik orbited the earth and transmitted radio signals for twenty-one days before burning up in the earth’s atmosphere.<span><span><span>1^1</span>1</span>start superscript, 1, end superscript</span> Sputnik II was launched the following month, in November, carrying a dog named Laika.

successful launches, the Soviets in 1959 sent a space probe, Lunik III, to photograph the dark side of the moon.

"Feudal" or "medieval" Japan had a social structure that merged with social and economic hierarchies. The Emperor was the top of social logic, having absolute power over the kingdom. Shogun was the military and political leader. The Daimyos, military nobles, represented the Shoguns, but they were subjugated by those. Beneath them were the well-known Samurai, loyal to the shoguns and daimyos. They were professional warriors and had social prestige, even though they had no voice in political decision making. Below them were the Ronin, a kind of socially unimportant samurai, serving as bodyguards or mercenaries. Peasants, artisans, and merchants made up the rest of the classes, most of the Japanese population at the time, generally poor and without any political power, were the basis of society, which had a mobility that was virtually impossible to achieve.

The Nullification Convention met in 1832. The convention declared the tariffs of 1828 and 1832 unconstitutional and unenforceable within the state of South Carolina after February 1, 1833. Decision of forcefully collecting taxes caused conflict between South Carolina and the United States.
Explanation:
The Ordinance of Nullification was caused by the belief that the tariffs of 1828 and 1832 favored the North over the South and therefore violated the Constitution. This led to the protest and conflict in between South Carolina and United States.
The imposition of tariffs argued that the U.S. Constitution gave rights to the states to block the enforcement of a federal law. Congress passed the new negotiated tariff to South Carolina. The convention declared the tariffs of 1828 and 1832 unconstitutional and unenforceable within the state of South Carolina after February 1, 1833.
