1.  1960: Ghana became a Republic

After gaining freedom from British rule, Ghana took another major step in his fledgling democracy to become a Republic.

July 1, 1960 is the day on which Ghana became an independent republic state and the day was historic in West Africa.

After then Prime Minister, Dr. Kwame Nkrumah proclaimed Ghana as a Republic, he became the country’s first President.

2. 1992: Writing of new constitution and restoration of democracy after decades of military rule

Having returned to democracy after decades of military rule, the 1992 constitution was written to serve as the guide for all Ghanaian citizens.

The constitution was the foundation of Ghana’s Fourth Republic and has since not been changed, although there have been some amendments over the years.

Ghana previously had three constitutions – 1969, 1979 and 1992 – but the current one is what is now officially regarded as containing the laws of the land.

3. 1997: Appointment of Kofi Annan as UN secretary-general

The Ghanaian diplomat was one of the most respected men in the world while he was alive and was even a co-recipient of the 2001 Nobel Peace Prize.

A domestic initiative that President Nixon was responsible for was the reduction of interest rates. The formal recognition of Ch
Leno4ka [110]

Correct answer:  Creating the Environmental Protection Agency

Explanation/detail:

The formal recognition of China and Strategic Arms Limitations Talks (SALT) were <u>foreign</u> policy initiatives (not domestic).

As to interest rates, during the Nixon presidency, the Federal Reserve chairman, Arthur Burns, had begun raising interest rates.  In 1971, President Nixon exerted pressure on Burns and "the Fed" to keep interest rates down, but that only led to a decade of high inflation that caused other economic problems. So that was not a success for Nixon.

<u>About the Environmental Protection Agency</u>

President Nixon signed an executive order establishing the Environmental Protection Agency in 1970.  Subsequent committee hearings in the House of Representatives and the Senate ratified Nixon's order for the creation of the agency.  

Environmental issues had been gaining much attention during the 1960s, and the need for oversight became clear.  As Lily Rothman reported in a TIME magazine article:

  • <em>An oil spill off the California coast in 1969 coated 400 square miles with slime and killed hundreds of birds. Scientists announced that auto exhaust was at high enough levels in some places that it could cause birth defects. The city of St. Louis smelled, as one resident put it, “like an old-fashioned drugstore on fire.”</em>

<em>- </em>"Here's Why the Environmental Protection Agency Was Created," <em>TIME, </em>March 22, 2017

Nixon's administration felt it necessary to take action to address pollution problems in the American environment.
