On February 25, 200–300 Mexican soldiers crossed the San Antonio River and took cover in abandoned shacks approximately 90 to 100 yards (82 to 91 m) from the Alamo walls. The soldiers intended to use the huts as cover to establish another artillery position, although many Texians assumed that they actually were launching an assault on the fort. Several men volunteered to burn the huts.To provide cover, the Alamo cannons fired grapeshot at the Mexican soldiers, and Crockett and his men fired rifles
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Unfortunately, you forgot to specify the name of the empires including in your question. Who they were?
However, trying to help you, we can comment on the case of the way China was affected and entered into a crisis in his final years as an empire.
Emperor Qianlong had rejected England's petition to lose its heavy restrictions on trade in 1793. However, European powers reacted and put pressure on the Chinese Empire and by 1912, the Chinese Empire had collapsed.
The reasons that accelerated this collapse were that China could not increase and modernize its industry. At the same time, the population dramatically increased to 430 million people by 1853. This factor put so much pressure on the Empire that suffered from the creation of jobs, generating poverty never before seen.
The once-successful Chinese bureaucracy could not maintain the growth rhythm of the increase of population and became very inefficient. The centralized power of the Emperor lost its presence in the far-away provinces and peasants and poor people started rebellions.
Answer:
· Carter: Camp David Accords
The Camp David Accords was one of the most successful foreign diplomacy policy, for it was able to help close the breach in between the then new state of Israel as well as Egypt. It allowed the Northern Israelites to live at peace with the Southern Arabians. Sadly, many of the other Arab nations surrounding the state of Israel continues to fight against them in hopes of "eliminating the Jews off their own land". However, the Jews were there first, and was only replaced by the Arabs following the Great Jewish Diaspora, which lasted from the destruction of the Jewish State by the Roman Empire to the end of World War II.
· Title IX
This is the most influential one of all, for it encompasses the ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act). It states that nobody, on basis of sex, benefits, education, etc.) should be discriminated from getting the job they want as long as they are qualified to get it. This implies to all federally funded jobs.

However, I believe George H. W. Bush had one of the most successful presidency, as he was able to ban semi-automatic rifles from being sold, as well as help the global community, such as cases in Poland, Alaska, China, Germany, etc. He also was able to enact bills that were for public safety, including Americans with Disabilities Act, Civil Rights Act, START- treaties, Nuclear Arms reduction (global), Unemployment Compensation. These all help make Bush a candidate to being the more successful.
