The Japanese surprise attack on the naval base of Pearl Harbor in Hawaii, on December 7th 1941. Described by President Franklin Delano Roosevelt as “a date which will live in infamy” on his famous speech delivered the following day.

The attack happened in the absence of a declaration of war and without any kind of warning to the civilian population. Japanese attack planes sunk four battleships, severely damaged another four, sunk another two military boats, damaged three cruisers, three destroyers and three other vessels. It destroyed 188 planes and severely damaged 159 more. 2,335 servicemen were killed and 1,143 were wounded. 68 civilians were killed and 35 were wounded with 3 civilian planes shot down. The US declared war on Japan on December 8, one hour after Roosevelt’s speech.

Drag and drop the events to arrange them from the event that came first to the event that occurred last.
Rina8888 [55]

The correct order is:

1. Germanic tribes settle in the east of Britain;

2. Anglo-Saxon kingdoms form;

3. The Normans invade England;

4. England develops a strong monarchy;

5. England develops a standardized system of coinage;

Despite being still very debatable about the migration of the Anglo-Saxons in England, it is commonly accepted that these Germanic tribes migrated in the eastern part of Britain somewhere around the fifth century. After the migration, they managed to have large influence and gradually manage to become the most influential people in the society, forming multiple small Anglo-Saxon Kingdoms. These kingdoms were not very strong individually, so the Normans had no big troubles to defeat them and invade their land, thus overtaking the high niches in the hierarchy. After the tensions between the Normans and the native inhabitants of England were settled down, they started to work together, and the first strong monarchy of England arose. As all strong monarchies do in order to have stable and prosperous economy, the English one standardized its own system of coinage.
