Germany was the aggressor nation. The event described was the <u>siege of Leningrad</u>, part of Germany's World War II aggression against the Soviet Union. The siege lasted from September 1941 to January 1944, a total of 872 days. More than 1,000,000 Soviet civilians died during the siege. (German forces had finally weakened by then.)

George Washington did not want to accept the presidency that the people wanted to give him for fear of becoming a tyrant himself, just like King George II of England, from whom they just declared themselves independent from. When he became president, he made an example by only taking 2 terms and then refusing to continue being president. It wasn't until much later that a law was introduced to prevent any single president from serving more than 2 terms.
The land where he needed to build his canal was owned by Colombia and they would not allow it.
I would say Washington DC because the White House was burned down
