Of course, John D. Rockefeller lost a little money during the Great Depression but he was still a billionaire. He had stock and other assets which lost value but he held on to them until they recovered their value.
<span>John D. Rockefeller is an interesting person. He could compartmentalize business and personal like a mobster. He was absolutely ruthless in business. He drove competitors out of business with unfair practices like demanding kick-backs from railroads. One competitor he put out of business was affiliated with one of his brothers. That brother never talked to John D ever again. John D's son was to take over his business, but when he saw the tactics regularly employed, he begged off. </span>
<span>But personally, John D was quite generous. He would carry around a roll of dimes and hand the coins to everyone he met. Also, the Rockefellers were quite frugal. One of John D's other brothers worked with him and he became rich but obviously not nearly as rich. That brother led a more opulent life style than John D and his family. The Rockefellers should say things like "We're not the Vanderbilts" when in fact the Rockefellers had much more money than the Vanderbilts or anyone else. </span>
<span>But all in all, due to his business practices, I would have to say that John D. Rockefeller was an odious character.</span>

The purpose of the Yalta Conference (February 1945) was to discuss what Europe would look like after World War II. The conference involved the three largest allied powers during this time, including the US, Soviet Union, and Great Britain. This meeting revolved around getting Germany to surrender unconditionally as well as a plan for reorganizing territories and who would control them after the war.
The Potsdam Conference (July-August 1945) focused on punishing war criminals, land boundaries, reparations payments, and getting Japan to unconditionally surrender. Japans surrender would essentially end World War II.
Leadership was a key factor in the creation of great civilization. Paca the Great was a leader that expanded Mayan power and initiated a building program that produced Mayan's finest architecture and Arts. Moctezuma's leadership played a role in building the last stage of the temple Ehecatl and he conquered some regions in Mexico. However, his leadership ended up being not so good for Aztecs when he helped Spaniards to conquer Mexico because he was convinced that Hernan Cortez was a god. Moctezuma was lapidated by his people.
