One effect of the Boston Massacre was that "John Adams was criticized for defending the British soldiers who were involved," since he felted that they deserved fair representation.
Good example of appeasement being used is the Munich Conference (1938), and the Potsdam Conference (1945). Many see appeasement as surrendering to another country’s wishes, which can make a nation and its leader look weak. It’s a temporary measure taken to stop a war, but many times is unsuccessful in the long run. Leaders such as Neville Chamberlain and FDR used this strategy with Hitler and Stalin, who both took advantage of what they had been given. Appeasement can put a country in a weak position due to them losing territory, resources, etc. It’s a very diplomatic policy, but usually only curbs a threat for a short time. Hope this helped a little! :)

The February Revolution was the first of the two revolutions that took place in 1917 and that ended for good the tsarist Russian Empire.
The revolution emerged near Petrograd (current St.Peterburg) that was the capital of Russia at the time. Russian people was disatisfied with the monarchy and the food rationings. Mass demonstrations were celebrated and there were violent confrontations against the police and gendarmes that remained loyal to the tsar (while the army sided with the revolutionaires). <u>This conflict led to the abdication of Tsar Nicholas II and to the end of the Romanov dynasty. </u>
