History

suter [353]3 years ago
4 0

In government, the term authority is often used interchangeably with power. However, their meanings differ: while power is defined as "the ability to influence somebody to do something that he/she would not have done", authority refers to a claim of legitimacy, the justification and right to exercise that power.

Soviet satellites formed in the eastern bloc. True or False
oee [108]

Answer:

<h2>True</h2>

Explanation:

Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia, East Germany, Hungary, Poland, and Romania were the Soviet satellite states that formed in the Eastern bloc of Europe.  Those nations were part of the  Warsaw Pact, signed along with the Soviet Union in 1955.  The name of that pact stems from the facts that the agreement was signed in Warsaw, Poland.  Albania also was an original signer of the Warsaw Pact, but split its relationship with the Soviet Union some years later.

Prior to the end of World War II, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill and US President Franklin Roosevelt pushed strongly for Soviet leader Josef Stalin to allow free elections to take place in the nations of Europe after the war.  Stalin had stated agreement with his fellow Allied leaders. But after the war ended, Stalin and the Soviets never did allow those free elections to occur. The Soviets felt they needed the Eastern European nations as satellites to protect their own interests.   A line of countries in Eastern Europe came into line with the USSR and communism -- thus called "satellites."
