History

President Richard Nixon visited China in 1972 in order to gain an advantage in the Cold War with the Soviet Union.  China was also a communist nation, but in the 1950s and 1960s some distance had developed between the USSR and China in their relationship.  

Nixon's administration was also in the process of withdrawing US troops from the war in Vietnam, and establishing a relationship with China would give the US a different opportunity for influence in Asia.

Nixon also was in the midst of domestic difficulties with the Watergate scandal, so making a significant move in foreign policy, such as opening relations with communist China, was a way to enhance his presidency at that time.

Nixon's visit to China was a significant event in changing the dynamics of the Cold War and the United States' posture toward communist countries in general.

just olya [345]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Unfortunately, you did not attach document 1. That is why we cannot use it. There are also no options attached.

However, trying to help you, we can say we can comment on the following general terms.

Roman Emperor Tiberius was known to be a good warrior, that is why he had the utmost respect for the Roman Empire Army and its generals. Historians consider that Tiberius was a great military commander that conquered different territories to expand the presence of the Roman Emñpire in far distant lands. He also knew how to defend the borders of the Empire from the attacks of Germanic tribes.

At the beginning of his period as Emperor of Rome, he did many good things to manage the empire and maintain political and economic stability. However, as history indicates, at the end of his time as Emperor, he became autocratic and despotic and had a very bad relationship with the Roman Senate.
