The "affordability" of the automobile in the 1950s changed American culture.
Affordability is in quotes because the automobile manufacturers did something tricky. They got the US government to pay for the building and maintenance of roads.
So, unlike the train system where the train companies have to build and maintain tracks, the auto makers only had to make the cars.
This reshaped our country, allowing roads and cars to become the primary means of transportation in the country. In turn, people could then live outside of cities allowing suburbs to be created and fast food restaurants to be invented for people in the car on the go.

Answer: Many historians argue that <u>the battle of Stalingrad</u> turned the tide of World War II against Germany.
Explanation:
After the battle of Stalingrad (23 August 1942 – 2 February 1943), Germany publicly admitted defeat for the first time in war. After five months of fight, the Soviet Union finally defeated the Nazi Germany. Four months after the battle, American and Allied troops headed towards Normandy, and thus the liberation of Western Europe began on D-day ( 6 June 1944). The battle of Stalingrad remains the largest confrontation in World War II, with over 1 million Soviet and 800,000 German casualties.
