A PARTICIPLE is a word created from a verb that has the function of an adjective and it adds a description or qualities of the antecedent. There are two types of participle, present (as in the  sentence above; base verb+-ing) or past participle (base verb+ -ed –for regular verbs- and Irregular past participles verbs- for example “Known)

1945 --- C: BEGINNING OF THE COLD WAR

The origin of the Cold War is usually between 1945 and 1947, during the tensions of the postwar period, and lasted until the dissolution of the Soviet Union (beginning of Perestroika in 1985, Chernobyl nuclear accident in 1986, fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989 and failed coup in the USSR in 1991).

1979 --- G: SOVIET INVASION OF AFGHANISTAN

The Soviet invasion of Afghanistan took place between December 1979 and January 1989, during which time the armed forces of the Democratic Republic of Afghanistan (RDA), supported by the Soviet Army, fought against the Mujahideen insurgents, groups of Afghan Islamic guerrillas supported by numerous foreign countries. The conflict is considered part of the Cold War.

1980 ---  F: US SUPPORT TO THE MUJAHIDEEN WITH WEAPONS AND TRAINING

The United States provided the Mujahideen with huge amounts of arms and money.

1988 --- A: OSAMA BIN LADEN'S ORGANIZATION OF MUJAHIDEEN FIGHTERS

Between August 1988 and the end of 1989, Osama bin Laden created a terrorist network known as al Qaeda, which consisted, to a large extent, of Muslim militants Bin Laden had known in Afghanistan, such as his lieutenant Ayman al-Zawahiri, along with Bin Laden himself. The group financed and organized several attacks around the world, including the detonation of car bombs against US targets in Saudi Arabia in 1996, the assassination of tourists in Egypt in 1997 and the simultaneous bombings of the US embassies in Nairobi (Kenya) and in Dar es Salaam (Tanzania) in 1998, which ended with the lives of 224 people and thousands of wounded.

1994 --- B: RISE OF THE TALIBAN IN AFGHANISTAN

The Taliban movement was founded in 1994 by veterans of the war in Afghanistan against the invasion of the Soviet Union, in the middle of a war between mujahideen groups. The Taliban movement follows an extremist modernist Islamic doctrine, albeit disguised as orthodoxy, whose idea of society is based on strict interpretations of what a Muslim's life should be, without allowing for other interpretations that allow some kind of "libertinism", as usual in democratic societies, and under which he ruled his country from 1996 until he was overthrown in the country in 2001.

1998 --- D: ATTACKS ON US EMBASSIES IN NORTH AFRICA

The terrorist attacks on the United States embassies in Africa took place on August 7, 1998 in Nairobi (Kenya), and in Dar es Salaam (Tanzania), the main objective being the embassies of the United States. These attacks, whose authors were linked to the terrorist group Al-Qaeda, led to Osama bin Laden, leader of the group, being included in the list of the ten most wanted FBI fugitives.

2001 --- E: SEPTEMBER 11 ATTACKS

The attacks of September 11, 2001 were a series of four suicide bombings committed on the day in the United States by 19 members of the al Qaeda jihadist network, by hijacking commercial aircraft to be hit against various targets, causing death of 3016 people (including the total of terrorists and 24 disappeared) and leaving another 6000 injured, as well as the destruction in New York of the entire complex of World Trade Center buildings (including the Twin Towers) and serious damage to the Pentagon building (headquarters of the Department of Defense of the United States, in the state of Virginia), an episode that would precede the war in Afghanistan and the adoption by the US government and its allies of the policy called "war on terrorism".

Is social commentary effective through literature
Anna71 [15]
I think it is. Social commentary incites the use of symbolism and plot to determine an end result that can be connected to something happening in society or past events. Not only this but literature pieces such as Animal Farm use symbolism to explain/describe events in history. Even Dr. Suess provided social commentary in his children' books. The message conveyed through these writers can be perceived on multiple levels, which I find fascinating as I have an entirely new perspective on Dr. Suess now vs as a child.
