It was in 1957 when the Soviet Union launched the Sputnik, world's first satellite into space.

Answer: B

Explanation:

It was the time when two major countries were facing each other in the cold war. In 1957, the Soviet Union launched the world's first satellite into the space which was named as "Sputnik". This marked the historical event forever, encouraging other countries especially the then rivals; America to come up for the challenge in space.

The Sputnik launch triggered America to prepare a rocket to beat the Soviet Union and raise the flag of power in the world but unfortunately, failed and the former won the title to lead technology to the space. This was marked as the beginning of the space race.

Westward movement, the populating by Europeans of the land within the continental boundaries of the mainland United States, a process that began shortly after the first colonial settlements were established along the Atlantic coast. The first British settlers in the New World stayed close to the Atlantic, their lifeline to needed supplies from England.

Resistance from the French and Native Americans slowed their movement westward, yet by the 1750s northern American colonists had occupied most of New England

Identify one similarity in a feature of feudalism in Europe and Japan in the era c. 600- c. 1450
prohojiy [21]
Both Europe and Japan had a "cast system" you could say, where peasants worked the land that the nobles owned. (The Japanese had their own terms for the people, I just can't remember them.) During this time, Europe had knights and these Knights had a code called Chivalry. Over in Japan, there were Samurai with a very similar code which was called Bushido. Hope this helps.
