First, we'll explain what the Great Railroad Strike of 1877 was. It was simply put, it was when railroad workers around the nation burned many railroad stations and other various railroad property. This state of unrest caused labor unions to be formed. The strike ended around 45 days after it started.

As a conservative republican, president nixon worked easily with the democratic congress. focused on making government run more

President Richard Nixon, like his archrival President John F. Kennedy, was significantly more concerned with foreign policy than domestic issues.

<h3>What did Nixon do?</h3>

Despite his support from the Republican Party's conservative side, and despite having established a career as a militant opponent of Communism, Nixon saw chances to improve relations with the Soviet Union and build relations with the People's Republic of China.

Politically, he intended to earn credit for defusing Cold War tensions; geopolitically, he hoped to use improved relations with Moscow and Beijing as leverage to put pressure on North Vietnam to end the war—or, at the very least, to halt it—with a settlement. He would pit China against the Soviet Union, and the Soviet Union against China, all while pitting both against North Vietnam.
