History

Eduardwww [97]3 years ago
6 0
The Soviet Union was bringing missiles to Cuba which America wanted to stop because Cuba is very close to Florida. America put a lot of ships around Cuba to stop the Soviet Union from bringing them the missiles. The Soviet and American ships met and had a standoff. If one of them would have fired, it would have started a war. To avoid this, the Soviet Union agreed to remove the missiles from Cuba if the United States removed their missiles from Europe. During this time the military was at the highest level of defcom as possible. It has never been as alert since then. The highest it has been since then was on 9/11.

Although Constantine originally controlled the Roman Empire in the West, he eventually won control of the East as well.
katrin2010 [14]

Answer: True

Explanation: Constantine was a Roman emperor who ruled from 306 to 337. Constantine got into to the throne as Emperor of Rome after the death of his father and due to the loyalty of his troops. At the beginning of his government, the empire was a tetrarchy (government of four rulers) until 313, in which Licinius (emperor of the east) and Constantine imposed themselves over the other emperors, establishing themselves as emperors of east and west respectively. In spite of the above, Constantine considered himself stronger than Licinius, so he decided to start a frontal attack of him that emerged victorious in 326, becoming the only emperor of the empire and taking all the eastern territories. There he founded a city with his name, Constantinople in present-day Istanbul (Turkey). Therefore, the correct answer is True.
