History
1 answer:
Umnica [9.8K]3 years ago
5 0

When the Soviet Union launched Sputnik on October 4, 1957, it set off the space race with the United States.

Both countries wanted to be the dominant country when it came to Space and for America, this meant changing educational priorities.

STEM became the focus as young people were encouraged to use their mind to help get America further into the stars.

America spend quite a lot of money to land the first man on the Moon and eventually moved on to other priorities.

What were the effects of western colonialism to the early modern period of Iran?
Debora [2.8K]
The colonial powers that strove to control Iran because of its geopolitical location were Russia and Britain. Russia controlled the north of the country while the south was under the British. The people tried to constitutionalise their country when the King repeatedly failed to deliver even though he promised to. Twice in the early modern period did Iran try to become a democracy with a constitution and rights for the people. Both times the efforts of the people were thwarted and crushed by external colonial influence. The continued interest of the Colonisers in the oil of Iran meant that they were not willing to let the people have a fair share of say or profit in the way the national resources of the country were used.
