Copernicus published his astronomical model in 1543, he defended that the Sun was the center of the universe and the Earth with other planets would orbit around it in circular paths. The problem was that during that period scientists defended the geocentric system which defended that the center of the Universe was Earth. Scientists defended this model because the Church also defended it, mostly because it was compatible with the idea that Humans were made in the image of God and were the center of the Universe and the reason for its existence. Anyone that went against those thoughts was persecuted by the Church in the Inquisition.

USA intervened in Korea and Vietnam as war efforts and in Greece and Turkey as coups.

Explanation:

In Turkey the US government aided a coup by the military to overthrow the government which in turn led to a regressive government to be placed in there.

A similar thing happened in Greece when a socialist party was elected into the Country with affiliations or alleged ones with the Soviet Union.

Korea was invaded by the USA in support of the south during the Korean war so as to stop the communist North from taking over all of the Korea under the influence of USSR.

This question asks for an essay, which is a task that only you can complete. However, we can provide some information that can help you start your work.

The Cold War was a period in history in which the Soviet Union and the United States (along with their respective allies) engaged in an ideological and geopolitical struggle for global influence. While the United States argued that its main objective was to spread democracy all over the world, I believe that the politics of this time were mainly dominated by a desire to be the most influential country in the world.

This is supported by the fact that many of the decisions that the United States made during this time period seem motivated more by a desire to compete with the Soviet Union than to benefit other countries. For example, the Space Race had no impact on democracy abroad. Nevertheless, it was an essential component of the Cold War and of gaining preeminence over the Soviet Union. Similarly, rivalry in sports and nuclear arsenal development are more closely related to a struggle for geopolitical influence than a desire to spread democracy.
