President Nixon...the watergate scandal.
Pres. Nixon's election committee broke into the DNC (<span>Democratic National Committee's) headquarters attempting to wire-tap phones and steal classified documents, which would give his party (republican) a HUGE advantage in the election. However, this didn't last too long because their plans were discovered and Pres. Nixon decided to pay the thieves large sums of money to keep their mouths quiet. (This was called the Watergate Scandal because they broke into the Watergate Hotel, Washington D.C..
The media laid a massive load of pressure on him, and congress told him he would have to resign, or be impeached.
Nixon didn't want to be known as the first president to be kicked out, so he resigned to be remembered as the first president to resign from his current state in office. </span>
Answer:
Explanation:
After World War II, defeated Germany was divided into Soviet, American, British and French zones of occupation. The city of Berlin, though technically part of the Soviet zone, was also split, with the Soviets taking the eastern part of the city. After a massive Allied airlift in June 1948 foiled a Soviet attempt to blockade West Berlin, the eastern section was drawn even more tightly into the Soviet fold. Over the next 12 years, cut off from its western counterpart and basically reduced to a Soviet satellite, East Germany saw between 2.5 million and 3 million of its citizens head to West Germany in search of better opportunities. By 1961, some 1,000 East Germans—including many skilled laborers, professionals and intellectuals—were leaving every day
In August, Walter Ulbricht, the Communist leader of East Germany, got the go-ahead from Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev to begin the sealing off of all access between East and West Berlin. Soldiers began the work over the night of August 12-13, laying more than 100 miles of barbed wire slightly inside the East Berlin border. The wire was soon replaced by a six-foot-high, 96-mile-long wall of concrete blocks, complete with guard towers, machine gun posts and searchlights. East German officers known as Volkspolizei (“Volpos”) patrolled the Berlin Wall day and night.
