Rolul lui bogdan 1 in istorie
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

Bogdan I, sau Bogdan Întemeietorul (în română: Bogdan Întemeietorul), a fost primul domnitor independent, sau voievod, al Moldovei în anii 1360. Inițial fusese voievodul sau șeful vlahilor din Maramureș în Regatul Ungariei. Bogdan și servitorii săi au părăsit Maramureșul în Moldova între 1359 și 1365. Moldova fusese sub stăpânirea lui Sas al Moldovei, vasal al lui Ludovic I al Ungariei, dar vlahii locali s-au opus suzeranității maghiare. Bogdan l-a alungat cu forta pe fiul lui Sas, Balc, si a pus mana pe tron. Ca răzbunare, Ludovic I a confiscat moșiile lui Bogdan în Maramureș în 1365. Bogdan a domnit ca prim voievod al Moldovei. Nu a acceptat domnia lui Ludovic I al Ungariei, transformând Moldova în al doilea principat român independent.

Freedom of the press and what technology led to the downfall of president nixon after the watergate scandal
solmaris [256]
A taping system (aka recording device) installed in the office of the President helped lead to the downfall of President Nixon. While Nixon was president, a recording device was installed in his office to record phone and in-person conversations. When being accused of having ties to the Watergate break-in, the Supreme Court ruled that Nixon must release his taped conversations. These conversations had incriminating evidence and showed Nixon's true intent as president. Ultimately, the evidence discovered by these recorded conversations lead to Nixon's resignation.
