Further divided

-- Marshall Plan: rebuild Europe; further solidified divide

Events

Middle East

-- Soviets in N. Iran, withdrew

-- Soviets set up puppet comm. govts in Poland, Romania and Bulgaria

Military aid sent to combat comm.

Which quote best summarizes the government's role during the 1920's?
Sidana [21]
The 1920s have long been remembered as the "Roaring Twenties," an era of unprecedented affluence best remembered through the cultural artifacts generated by its new mass-consumption economy: a Ford Model T in every driveway, "Amos n' Andy" on the radio and the first "talking" motion pictures at the cinema, baseball hero Babe Ruth in the ballpark and celebrity pilot Charles Lindbergh on the front page of every newspaper. As a soaring stock market minted millionaires by the thousands, young Americans in the nation's teeming cities rejected traditional social mores by embracing a modern urban culture of freedom—drinking illegally in speakeasies, dancing provocatively to the Charleston, listening to the sex
rhythms of jazz music.

What does a system of checks and balances protect against
antiseptic1488 [7]
Iit protects against any branch of the government trying to abuse its power. This way all powers are shared and equal. This goes even for the president, he alone cannot mandate orders. It takes approval of branches (judicial, legislative, executive) to get to a deal. :)

Happy New Year!
