Before Christ
After Death (Of Christ)
The United States and the Soviet Union competed with one another for global supremacy in the following ways:
1. Supporting local rebels in countries in order to make new allies
2. Spreading propaganda through teachers and intellectuals. Mostly concentrated on capitalism, democracy and communism.
3. Providing weapons and money to allies
4. Carrying out proxy wars in Vietnam, Afghanistan, South America etc.
The answer should be false
The bitter battle between <em>Theodore Roosevelt </em>and his successor<em> William H Taft</em> led to the formation of a third party, called <em>Progressive</em> or <em>Bull Moos</em> <em>Party</em>. This split from the Republican party resulted in the election of the Democratic contender, Woodrow Wilson, in 1912.
President Roosevelt groomed and mentored Taft to be his successor in the White House. Taft got elected for president in 1908 but his administration was rather conservative, and in direct conflict with Roosevelt's progressive version.
Disappointed with Taft, Roosevelt ran for president again in 1912 but he could not find enough supporters among Republicans. This resulted in the split and the forming of a new political party, the Progressive.
I the end, and as the result of the split, the Democrat Woodrow Wilson won the election.
