Answer:

South Africa [more details below ⇓]

Explanation:

<u>On 3 December 1967, South African doctor, Dr Christiaan (Chris) Barnard, performed the world's first human to human heart transplant at Groote Schuur Hospital, Cape Town. This extraordinary event which pushed the boundaries of science into the dawn of a new medical epoch took place inside Charles Saint Theatre at Groote Schuur Hospital. After a decade of heart surgery, Barnard and his gifted cardiothoracic team of thirty (which included his brother Marius), were well equipped to perform the nine hour long operation. The recipient was Louis Washkansky, a fifty three year old grocer with a debilitating heart condition. Washkansky received the heart of Denise Darvall, a young woman who was run over by a car on 2 December and had been declared brain dead after suffering serious brain damage. Her father, Edward Darvall agreed to the donation of his daughter's heart and kidneys. The operation started shortly after midnight on a Saturday night and was completed the next morning just before 6 a.m. when the new heart in the chest of Louis Washkansky was electrically shocked into action. After regaining consciousness he was able to talk and on occasion, to walk but his condition deteriorated and died of pneumonia eighteen days after the heart transplant. Groote Schuur Hospital has set up the ‘Heart of Cape Town Museum’ which honours those who played a leading role in the surgical feat. Theatres A and B are the orginal theatres and have been recreated to display an authentic representation of the ground breaking operation. </u>

How did diplomacy affect Austria-Hungary during WW1
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

The assassination of the Austrian imperial heir Archduke Franz Ferdinand by a Serbian nationalist in Sarajevo in 1914 led to a declaration of war on Serbia.

Because Serbia was a Slavic Russian ally, the czarist government declared war on Austria-Hungary.  Germany declared war on Russia because it had an alliance with Austria.  Then France had to declare war on Germany and Austria-Hungary because of its committments to Moscow. And so on.

The policy of military alliances and secret diplomatic arrangements  practiced in the decades before WWI, conducted recklessly to a large extent by all great powers of Europe, constructed a web of mutual compromises that led to the great continental and global conflict we know as WWI, causing a sort of chain reaction. The war went on for 4 years and caused unimaginable loss of lives and destruction.
