How did John D. Rockfeller impact modern society?

zlopas [31]

<span>His impact on the Industrial Revolution in America was the biggest of any single U.S. citizen. His trust of oil, and control of the railroads, and oil tank cars on the railroad allowed him immense power since the federal government instituted no regulation of business to allow competition to develop in the various industries totally or in-part controlled by Rockefeller. This ended of course when Theodore Roosevelt broke the industrial trusts early in the 20th century. Rockefeller did go on to institute many worthwhile charities and foundations that have and continue to benefit people around the world. Rockefeller had no peer when it came to making business decisions that only he would make with regular success that eventually made him the wealthiest person in United States history. Using today's wealth standards his personal fortune was well over 1/4 of a trillion (that's with a T) dollars.</span>

Why did the United States suffer a loss of confidence following the launch of Sputnik 1?

jolli1 [7]

The correct answer is B. The United States assumed that they would be first into space, before the Soviets.

Explanation:

During the Cold War, there was a strong dispute between the United States and the Soviet Union to develop spatial technology and send rockets, satellites, and similar to the space. In this context, the U.S. leaders and scientists strongly believed the U.S. would be the first one into space because there had been huge advancements in this area. However, in 1957 the Soviet Union launched Sputnik 1, which was the first satellite in the space. Additionally, this unexpected victory of the Soviet Union caused a loss of confidence in the United States.

The Atlantic system was the set of complex interactions that connected African labor, American land, and mineral resources, and European technology and military power.

This is further explained below.

<h3>What is the Atlantic system?</h3>

Generally, The transatlantic slave trade was a component of the larger global slave trade that included the transportation of between 10 million and 12 million enslaved Africans over the Atlantic to the Americas during the years of the 16th and 19th centuries.

A network of people, raw resources, completed commodities, traders, and mariners that brought prosperity to colonial empires was tied together by the Atlantic Ocean throughout the time of colonialism.

This ocean functioned as a highway between European, Africa, and the Americas.

In conclusion, The assets that a nation-state is able to muster against all other countries for the purposes of military intimidation, defense, and conflict all contribute to the nation-overall state's military force potential.
