To start the us policy of containment was made because of the fear of communism spreading. An example of containment is when Russia sent nuclear missiles to cuba which in turn created the Cuban missile crisis, the us then set up a "quarantine" around northern cuba to protect the us. Russia later took the missiles back and tensions fell. Another example is the situation in Berlin, West Berlin was communist, East Berlin was democratic, the communist vision eventually fell with the Berlin wall which promoted democracy. The us also gave billons of dollars to Europe to promote democratic growth. The quarantine is basically against communism and promoting a democratic style.
Answer:
It is estimated that by the early 16th century as much as 10% of Lisbon's population was of African descent. After the European discovery of the American continent, the demand for African labour gradually grew, as other sources of labour - both European and American - were found to be insufficient.
In 60 BC, Caesar, Crassus and Pompey formed the First Triumvirate, a political alliance that dominated Roman politics for several years. Their attempts to amass power as Poplars were opposed by the Optimates within the Roman Senate, among them Cato the Younger with the frequent support of Cicero. Caesar rose to become one of the most powerful politicians in the Roman Republic through a string of military victories in the Gallic Wars, completed by 51 BC, which greatly extended Roman territory. During this time he both invaded Britain and built a bridge across the Rhine river. These achievements and the support of his veteran army threatened to eclipse the standing of Pompey, who had realigned himself with the Senate after the death of Crassus in 53 BC. With the Gallic Wars concluded, the Senate ordered Caesar to step down from his military command and return to Rome. Leaving his command in Gaul would mean losing his immunity to criminal prosecution by his enemies; knowing this, Caesar openly defied the Senate's authority by crossing the Rubicon and marching towards Rome at the head of an army.[2] This began Caesar's civil war, which he won, leaving him in a position of near unchallenged power and influence.
