The space age officially started when the Soviet Union’s space exploration agency successfully launched its first man made object into the earth’s orbit. It was named Sputnik 1, a man-made satellite.

The Bolsheviks worked to organize the farmers and those who worked in factories against the government. This was because they felt that threatening the production of the country would work for the Romanovs to meet their demands. One such demand was that they wanted the Soviet Union to end their war with Austria and Germany. ...

In perhaps the most bizarre outcome of the Second World War, the removal of the German-led Axis Powers as a common enemy paved the way for the emergence of the capitalist and the communist ideologies that created the Western and Eastern bloc respectively. The unity witnessed between the Soviet Union and the United States as part of the Allied Powers ended with World War II as the former claimed a lead in advocating communism while the latter supported capitalism in the name of democracy (Foner, 2014, p.709). The different stands plunged the two nations and their allies into the ...

Politically, UK is losing grip in the control of Europe as Russia emerges as the best bet to control the entire region.

As a matter of fact, in the 1980s, Americans were extremely uncertain about its world role, especially about its involvement in Central America. “The Reagan Administration's strenuous efforts to combat leftist rebels in El Salvador and a leftist Government in Nicaragua provoked sharp splits not just within the policy elite but among the public as well” (Carothers). For the entire 1980s, Washington was involved in endless debates over whether the numerous leftist rebellions in Central America ...

Abstract

Although obliged to cover issues in their entirety, with no distortions made in the process, American media tend to misrepresent the reality, as was the case with the depiction of Muammar Gaddafi’s regime implications for the social welfare possibly for political reasons. The noble cause of saving the international image of the USA formerly allied with the late leader in the wake of the Gaddafi demonization could have been the driving force of misrepresentation of the myth related in part to ethical minorities. The knowledge of non-consequentialism and its principles, whether unconsciously or otherwise, allows readers to perceive ...

Israel has never been a liberal state. This country was built by true communists– so convinced that they emigrated from the socialist Soviet Union, and created even more socialist kibbutzim. The kibbutzim embodied communism ideals much better than Soviet collective farms: the property passed into the ownership of the community, people’s incomes were combined into a common pot, and children were often brought up by a commune more than by their own parents. There is no freedom of speech in Israel. It has a military censorship; however, the greatest obstacle to the freedom of expression is the Israeli ...
