The Atlantic Charter was the document that stated the Allies' war aims, including belief in the four fundamental freedoms (freedom of speech, freedom of worship, freedom from want, freedom from fear) and condemnation of Nazism. It also called for a new association of nations. The Atlantic was made prior to the U.S.'s entry into WWII.
<span>Mesopotamia is a Greek word
meaning 'between the rivers'. The rivers are the Tigris and Euphrates
which flow through modern Iraq. The Euphrates also flows through much of
Syria.
Mesopotamia is made up of different regions, each with its own

there affected the ways that people lived.

After his education in the public schools of Rochester, New York, Eastman worked briefly for an insurance company and a bank. In 1880 he perfected a process of making dry plates for photography and organized the Eastman Dry Plate and Film Company for their manufacture. The first Kodak (a name he coined) camera was placed on the market in 1888. It was a simple handheld box camera containing a 100-exposure roll of film that used paper negatives. Consumers sent the entire camera back to the manufacturer for developing, printing, and reloading when the film was used up; the company’s slogan was “You press the button, we do the rest.” In 1889 Eastman introduced roll film on a transparent base, which has remained the standard for film. In 1892 he reorganized the business as the Eastman Kodak Company. Eight years later he introduced the Brownie camera, which was intended for use by children and sold for one dollar. By 1927 Eastman Kodak had a virtual monopoly of the photographic industry in the United States, and it has continued to be one of the largest American companies in its field.
