Leader Ronald Reagan Dwight D. Eisenhower Margarita Thatcher
White raven [17]

Here are your matches:

<u>Ronald Reagan</u>

  • I challenged the Soviet Union to tear down the Berlin Wall.  I also maintained a hard line against communism.

<u>Dwight D. Eisenhower</u>

  • My administration created the idea of brinkmanship--going to the brink of nuclear war to achieve our aims.

<u>Margaret Thatcher</u>

  • I was good friends with leaders of the Soviet Union and the United States and helped end the Cold War by bringing them together.

<u>Nikita Khrushchev</u>

  • I pulled missiles out of Cuba during the Cuban Missile Crisis, and prevented the Cold War from escalating into a nuclear war.

<u>Harry S. Truman</u>

  • I made the decision to drop the atomic bomb, but I also became known for Marshall Plan and the doctrine of containment.

<u>Josef Stalin</u>

  • I began the Cold War in Europe by creating the Communist Bloc.  I also stole atomic secrets from the United States and built my own bomb, thus escalating tension in the early Cold War.

<u>Mikhail Gorbachev</u>

  • My policies were designed to give more personal and economic freedom to people in the Soviet Union.  I had good relations with many leaders in the Western Bloc.

A bit of added detail:

I'd like to explain more about one item in the list above -- the policy of "brinkmanship" during the Eisenhower administration.

John Foster Dulles was Secretary of State under US President Dwight Eisenhower. Dulles held the office from 1953 to 1959.  He wanted a change from what had been the "containment policy" which the US had followed during the Truman Administration, as recommended then by American diplomat George F. Kennan.   Dulles felt the containment approach put the United States in a weak position, because it only was reactive, trying to contain  communist aggression when it occurred.

Dulles sought to push America's policy in a more active direction; some have labeled his approach "brinkmanship."  In an article in <em>LIFE </em>magazine in 1956, Dulles said, "The ability to get to the verge without getting into the war is the necessary art."  He wasn't afraid to threaten massive retaliation against communist enemy countries as a way of intimidating them.

When did the Americans get a hydrogen bomb?
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

The first test in that series, the Bravo test, took place on March 1, 1954. Bravo was a device using Lithium Deuteride as its fuel and the explosion yielded 15 megatons, the largest bomb ever exploded by the United States. The bomb was in a form readily adaptable for delivery by an aircraft and was thus America's first weaponized hydrogen bomb.

What describes the working environment in factories
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

Businesses needed workers as factories were being built. Employers could set wages as low as they wanted with a long line of people willing to work because people were willing to do work as long as they were paid. Six days a week, people worked fourteen to sixteen hours a day. However, the majority were unskilled workers who earned only $8-$10 per week while working for 10 cents an hour. Skilled workers made slightly more money, but not significantly more. Women were paid one-third to one-half of what men were paid. Children got even less. Owners who were only interested in making a profit were pleased because labor was less expensive.

Explanation:

To a particular factory, the answer may differ.
