History

Nitella [24]3 years ago

Answer:

Explanation:

There are several, but historians argue the most terrifying event for the US was the Soviet atomic bomb detonation.

September 1949, the Soviet Union exploded its own atomic bomb and this shocked the U.S. because now both nations could destroy each other. -This was the world's first human-made satellite.

The second event was the cold war. The main reason why the United States was fearful of the Soviet Union in the "Cold War" was because the US was afraid that communism would spread around the world and ultimately to the US--which they viewed as being a threat to their way of life.

lilavasa [31]

Answer:

Enjoyment of Worldly Pleasures

Explanation:

During the Middle Ages, religious people had been used to believe in piety by simply wearing custom clothes and eating simple food.

The thinkers of Renaissance humanism favoured the idea that anyone could enjoy the pleasures of life without offending God.

<em>As the richest embraced this view, they came to possess luxuries, and enjoy tasty foods in concert halls.</em>

<em>It became a common practice to meet and enjoy food without feeling guilty or ashamed about it. And in other instances, a more open attitude towards sexual practices was accepted.</em>

The religious leaders or people with high social status began to embrace a more secular view towards life, often constructing great houses, that prompted many expensive decorations.

<u>Gradually people became more focused on the material side of everyday life, and readjust the Christian legacy from the Middle Ages.</u>
