In 1917, British Intelligence intercepted what became known as the Zimmermann Telegram. This was a communication from the German government to the Mexican government that attempted to convince Mexico to declare war on the U.S. to distract Americans from getting involved in World War I. Even though Mexican President Carranza ruled out any such action, the U.S. had evidence of a threat to its national security and declared war on Germany and its allies, but not on Mexico.
Gorbachev pursued glasnost and perestroika reforms in part because the war in Afghanistan had drained the nation's resources. Mikhail Gorbachev, as known as the former General Secretary of the Soviet Union (Russia), noticed that there has been a huge decrease in their resources. They were fighting a war in Afghanistan, and used all of the nation's resources to help them win the war. Since they used most of their resources, they didn't have much to help the economy, so if they don't get enough resources back, the economy would fail. Because of this Gorbachev made a movement called "perestroika" to help get back the nation's resources. What this movement did was let the government speaker, or have a conversation, about the issues that are going on in the economy, and see if there could be a way to solve it.
Our Founding Fathers did not invent the American system of government out of thin air. They, like the other colonists, were influenced by many different ideas and traditions.

These taxes included the Stamp Act, passed in 1765, which required the use of special paper bearing an embossed tax stamp for all legal documents.
