History
1 answer:
ASHA 777 [7]2 years ago
8 0

As the Soviet Ships reached quarantine line, US sent one of its carrier and destroyer ships to intercept the intruder ship.

President’s military advisers put out the highest military alert “DEFCON 2” in the possibility of an armed attack on US mainland  and started preparing for a full-fledged war.

Explanation

The Cuban Missile Crisis brought the world on the brink of another dastardly lethal war. As the US officials discovered of soviets building missile sites in Cuba, president along with his advisers became tensed about the possibility of an armed ballistic attack in future.

Hence, the US president decided to “quarantine” Cuba to deny any possibility of Soviets ship reaching them with fissile material. Though all the ships altered from the course, one of the tanker “Bucharest” approached the quarantine. This act completely tensed the situation and US military went on high alert.

More than 40 non-aligned nation (NAM countries) along with UN Secretary-General urged both of the government to refrain from indulging in any situation that may further escalate the situation. Later when US aircraft carrier and a destroyer tried to intercept the tanker, the intruder ship failed to cooperate with the authorities.  

Later as the events unfolded, deep negotiations started between the US and soviets. The US desisted from armed attack when one of its spy-plane was shot down over Cuba. Both the governments committed to diffuse the further flaring up the situation by Soviets announcing for dismantling the soviet weapons from Cuba and the US removing missile sites from Turkey although at a later date so as not to alienate Turkey(it’s allied).

What was one thing Cornelius Vanderbilt did to gain control of his competitors?
Greeley [361]

In 1817, Vanderbilt went to work as a ferry captain for a wealthy businessman who owned a commercial steamboat service that operated between New Jersey and New York. The job provided Vanderbilt the opportunity to learn about the burgeoning steamship industry. In the late 1820s, he went into business on his own, building steamships and operating ferry lines around the New York region. Shrewd and aggressive, he became a dominant force in the industry by engaging in fierce fare wars with his rivals. In some cases, his competitors paid him hefty sums not to compete with them. (Throughout his life, Vanderbilt’s ruthless approach to business would earn him numerous enemies.)

In the 1840s, Vanderbilt constructed a large brick home for his family at 10 Washington Place, in Manhattan’s present-day Greenwich Village neighborhood. Despite his growing wealth, the city’s elite residents were slow to accept Vanderbilt, considering him rough and uncultured.

In the early 1850s, during the California Gold Rush, a time before transcontinental railroads, Vanderbilt launched a steamship service that transported prospectors from New York to San Francisco via a route across Nicaragua. His route was faster than an established route across Panama, and much speedier than the other alternative, around Cape Horn at the southern tip of South America, which could take months. Vanderbilt’s new line was an instant success, earning more than $1 million (about $26 million in today’s money
