The United States placed nuclear missiles in Turkey, causing Russia to place some in Cuba.

During the Cuban Missile Crisis, leaders of the U.S. and the Soviet Union were involved in a tense, 13-day military and political standoff in October 1962 over the installation of nuclear-armed Soviet missiles on Cuba, just 90 miles from U.S. shores.

Consequently, many people feared the world was on the verge of nuclear war. Nevertheless, disaster was avoided when the U.S. agreed to Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev’s who offered to remove the Cuban missiles only if the U.S. promessed not to invade Cuba.

Question 25
Vsevolod [243]

The serious difficulty for the national government under the Articles of Confederation is "It lacked the authority to raise money to support itself ".

<u> Explanation: </u>

The Article of Confederation gave away most of the power to the state and federal government had only limited control over the state. Particularly this article made a power less national government during the American Revolution.  

The American states were of the opinion that if the strong national government is there in the central means it may affect the autonomy of the states.

So the states were strongly objected to the formation of strong central government and felt that the most decision making power should be with them.

The downfall of The Article of confederation was simply because it has no power to make laws to control the states.
