Answer: The Tet Offensive.
The Tet Offensive (officially <em>The General Offensive and Uprising of Tet Mau Than 1968</em>) was one of the largest military campaigns of the Vietnam War, launched on January 30, 1968 by forces of the Viet Cong and North Vietnamese People's Army of the Republic of Vietnam against the forces of the South Vietnamese Army of the Republic of Vietnam, the United States Armed Forces, and their allies.
The offensive shocked the U. S. public and had a strong effect on the U. S. government. Americans had thought that the North Vietnamese were being defeated and were incapable of launching such an ambitious attack. Public support for the war significantly decreased, the media became more critical and the U.S. sought negotiations to end the war.
In the legislative branch of the United States Government, the term length
for members of the House of Representative are two years and a
staggered six years for members of the Senate. There is no limit on the
amount of terms a person can serve.
Georgia,
British artist Thomas Addison Richards painted River Plantation (1855-60) from sketches made in Georgia during his travels through the South in the 1840s. Oil on canvas (20 1/4" x 30").
River Plantation
uniquely situated among southern states on the eve of the Civil War (1861-65), played a vital part in the formation of the Confederacy. A geographic lynchpin that linked Atlantic seaboard and Deep South states, the "Empire State" was the second-largest state in area east of the Mississippi River (Virginia was larger until West Virginia broke away in 1861), and the second-largest Deep South state (only Texas was larger). In population, slave and free, Georgia was the largest in the Deep South. Both geographically and demographically, Georgia encompassed as much diversity as any other Confederate state, and these factors had an important impact on how the state experienced the war years and what it contributed to the Southern war effort.
The two dates most often mentioned as “the beginning of World War II” are July 7, 1937, when the “Marco Polo Bridge Incident” led to a prolonged war between Japan and China, and September 1, 1939, when Germany invaded Poland, which led Britain and France to declare war on Hitler’s Nazi state in retaliation.
