<span>The Royal Society. The full name of the group when it originated was "The President, Council and Fellows of the Royal Society of London for Improving Natural Knowledge." The group of science-minded men began their organization in 1660 and sought and received a charter of incorporation from King Charles II in 1662. Some of the key people in getting the group started were Christopher Wren and Robert Boyle. While the Royal Society had official endorsement from the king and to this day continues to have the blessing of the British government, it was and is an voluntary organization, not a government agency. During the Scientific Revolution, the Royal Society served as a clearinghouse of knowledge and a network to connect those pursuing scientific discovery. A great book that shows the role the Royal Society played in the Scientific Revolution is: Ingenious Pursuits: Building the Scientific Revolution, by Lisa Jardine (1999).</span>
Answer:
The fall of all communist countries
Explanation:
The Berlin Wall was a physical border set in the city of Berlin which was dividing the communist and democratic part of it. The people were not able to communicate, move between the two sides, or even see each other. The wall was set by the Soviets, and it represented very well how their politics was. When this wall finally was taken down after three decades, it meant that Germany was united again, and that the communism came to an end in the country. The symbolism of the fall of the Berlin Wall though is much wider, and it not only symbolizes the end of communism in Germany, but across most of the world, as it coincided with the period when the Soviet Union was falling apart and numerous countries got independent, free to make their own decisions, and become democratic societies.
