There were three presidential debates between Kennedy and Richard Nixon, the Republican candidate. On September 26, 70 million viewers watched the first televised presidential debate in American history. Prior to the first debate, Nixon two weeks ago in the hospital due to a leg injury, was wearing a beard and did not want makeup. He looked tense and uncomfortable, while Kennedy seemed relaxed. At the end of the debate, most of the audience gave Kennedy the winner. But those who listened to the radio either gave Nixon the winner or said the result was a draw. On October 7 the second debate was held and the third and last debate was held on October 13. Television debates are now considered fundamental in American politics, but they were debated in the 1960s Kennedy-Nixon, with no time when television was a dominant role in politics. After the debate, a Kennedy campaign gained momentum, overtaking Nixon on some points in most polls. On Tuesday, November 8, 1960, Kennedy defeated Richard Nixon in one of the most open presidential presidencies of the twentieth century. No national popular vote, Kennedy wins with 49.7% of the votes against 49.5% of the competitor, while the Electoral College won with 303 votes against 219 (269 were needed to win).

Which Inca emperor tried to secure his only release from Spanish captivity with a vast quantities of gold?
Archy [21]
D.Atahualpa

"On 17 November the Spaniards sacked the Inca army camp, in which they found great treasures of gold, silver, and emeralds. Noticing their lust for precious metals, Atahualpa offered to fill a large room about 22 feet (6.7 m) long and 17 feet (5.2 m) wide up to a height of 8 feet (2.4 m) once with gold and twice with silver within two months. It is commonly believed that Atahualpa offered this ransom to regain his freedom; however, it seems likelier that he did so to avoid being killed, as none of the early chroniclers mention any commitment by the Spaniards to free Atahualpa once the metals were delivered." -

Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

Hello. You did not put the answer options, but a fact that links the "rise of Pericles to power" and the "Peloponnesian War and the death of Pericles" is the growth of the power of Athens while the power of Sparta was suppressed.

Explanation:

Pericles was a great Greek politician who came to power in Athens, where he had an administrable administration making Athens a great cultural, artistic, military, political and economic center.

Under his administration, Athens has become very strong and powerful, however. Pericles had big plans for Athens, one of which included suppressing the power and influence of Sparta, which became increasingly threatened by PEricles' government.

Tension with Sparta triggered the Peloponnesian war, causing the Spartans to invade the cities near Athens. This invasion was used against Pericles who was temporarily condemned, accused and defaulted on public money. Pericles died shortly afterwards a victim of the plague.

How do you think the invention of the radio changed the sport of American baseball?
Ratling [72]
Radio broadcast of a baseball game was able to collapse space and time. In other words, you no longer had to be at the game, to experience the game. People would gather at their homes or offices or on the street to listen to it. Also, fans had more than an outline of the action the played out visually allowing better understanding and wider appreciation for the sport.
