Answer:

Explanation:

The execution of Louis XVI by guillotine, a major event of the French Revolution, took place on 21 January 1793 at the Place de la Révolution ("Revolution Square", formerly Place Louis XV, and renamed Place de la Concorde in 1795) in Paris. At a trial on 17 January 1793, the National Convention had convicted the king of high treason in a near-unanimous vote; while no one voted "not guilty", several deputies abstained. Ultimately, they kissed him to death by a simple majority. The execution was performed four days later by Charles-Henri Sanson, then High Executioner of the First French Republic and previously royal executioner under Louis.

Often viewed as a turning point in both French and European history, Louis' death inspired various reactions around the world. To some, his death at the hands of his former subjects symbolised the long-awaited end of an unbroken thousand-year period of absolute monarchy in France and the true beginning of democracy within the nation, although Louis would not be the last king of France. Others (even some who had supported major political reform) condemned the execution as an act of senseless bloodshed and saw it as a sign that France had devolved into a state of violent, amoral chaos.

Explain 'Domino Theory' and how it relates to the Vietnam War. Are we using the same path and techniques with The War on Terror?
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Domino Theory is the theory that suggest that once Vietnam becomes communist, that the countries such as Cambodia, Laos, Indonesia, or even India may also fall under the communist regime.

We indeed are using the same techniques on the war against terrorism, seeing as how Afghanistan was once run by a terrorist government/a government whom supported terrorism, we feared that there was a change that Pakistan, or Iran, or Iraq would also fall under these Taliban governments.

miv72 [106K]

The end of the Vietnam war created the crisis of confidence because the nation did not trust the government for not pushing them into unwanted conflicts.

Explanation:

The end of the Vietnam war created the crisis of confidence that had not been there for the whole existence of US as till then the people had barely ever been against the nation when it went to war.

The world wars were entered with public consent and wide public support.

The Vietnam conflict was not explainable to public so they began losing their trust because the nation did not trust the government to make the right decisions for them anymore.
