The Arab Spring was a loosely related group of protests that ultimately resulted in regime changes in countries such as Tunisia, Egypt and Libya. Not all of the movements, however, could be deemed successful—at least if the end goal was increased democracy and cultural freedom. In fact, for many countries enveloped by the revolts of the Arab Spring, the period since has been hallmarked by increased instability and oppression. Given the significant impact of the Arab Spring throughout northern Africa and the Middle East, it’s easy to forget the series of large-scale political and social movements arguably began with a single act of defiance.

The Arab Spring began in December 2010 when Tunisian street vendor Mohammed Bouazizi set himself on fire to protest the arbitrary seizing of his vegetable stand by police over failure to obtain a permit. Bouazizi’s sacrificial act served as a catalyst for the so-called Jasmine Revolution in Tunisia. The street protests that ensued in Tunis, the country’s capital, eventually prompted authoritarian president Zine El Abidine Ben Ali to abdicate his position and flee to Saudi Arabia. He had ruled the country with an iron fist for more than 20 years.

Which organization best completes the diagram showing the structure of the legislative branch of the US government?
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

The options for this question are:

<em>A) Congress</em>

<em>B) Select comittee</em>

<em>C) Party Caucus</em>

<em>D) Legislative district</em>

The correct answer is A.

The House of Representatives and the Senate make up Congress. Congress is a bicameral body that forms the legislative branch of the US government.

The House of Representatives is made up of 435 representatives and the Senate is made up of 100 representatives.

This bicameral organization originated in the Connecticut Compromise during the Constitutional Convention (1787) to resolve the problem of representation in Congress. This was made to balance the tensions in representation caused by different numbers in population and different economic powers of the states.

I need 12 facts about the soviet union
AfilCa [17]

In 1897, only 33%t of men and 14% of women were literate. By 1929, it rose to 66.5% and 37.2%, and 90.8$ and 72.5% by 1939, reaching a total of 99.7% in the 1970s and 80s.

During the Cold War, the USSR mapped the whole world to such precise detail that the US still uses them, among other sources, due to their accuracy.

There is a propaganda tactic known as “whataboutism” used in the Soviet Union to discredit the critics by responding with “What about…” followed by an event from the Western world

It was the Soviet’s Red Army that liberated the concentration camp at Auschwitz and also captured Hitler’s headquarters, the Wolf’s Lair, on the day the world celebrates as the International Holocaust Remembrance Day: January 27, 1945.

Between 1929 and 1940, the Soviet Union introduced a five- and six-day work week calendar in a deliberate attempt to eliminate religion.

Two-thirds of males born in the Soviet Union in 1923 did not survive World War II.

From 1970 to 1992, the Soviets drilled the world’s deepest borehole known as the “Kola Superdeep Borehole” that reached 12,262 meters (40,230 feet). The project’s aim was to drill as deep as possible.

The Soviet Union had an internationally televised song contest. As few viewers had phones, they would turn their lights on if they liked a song and off if they didn’t. The power spikes were recorded by the state energy company and the reports sent to the station to pick the winner.

The Soviet Union lasted long enough to have its own country code domain “.su” on the Internet, which it received a mere 15 months before its dissolution

The Soviet Union was the first to send a human into space as part of the Vostok Program featuring cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin. They were also the first to launch a space station

On a lighter note, Mikhail Gorbachev, the last leader of the Soviet Union, starred in a 60-second Pizza Hut commercial in 1997.

The Soviet Union loved Bollywood Bollywood offered respite from the frequent hardships of day-to-day life for many Soviet citizens, and an opportunity to escape into vibrant musical worlds filled with elaborate drama and dramatic love stories.

1. What is alchemy? How is it related to Taoism?
kiruha [24]

"1" Taoist physical practices like breathing exercises, massage, martial arts, yoga, and meditation. These are meant to change a person both physically and mentally and bring them closer to harmony with the Tao.

"2" These are objects that are thought to bring good luck. They also keep the evil spirits away In Taoism talismans are strips of paper which written on them are words of power and religious symbols that focus on benevolent spiritual energies to purify, heal the sick, and drive away demons.

"3"  To bring order and harmony to many layers of the cosmos.

"4" Southern Taoism is more of an offshoot of Cheng-I Taoism, the only liturgical tradition that’s surviving today. The priests still perform liturgies just like the chiao, believed to harmonize their local community with the cosmos. But the north doesn’t approve of these rituals. Northern Taoism has grown from the Ch’uan-chen tradition.
