This investigation examines the question, to what extent did the USSR place missiles in Cuba to protect Cuba’s existence as a Socialist nation?

The period investigated is the events between 1953, when Khrushchev assumed control of the USSR, and 1961 when the missiles were actually deployed. The events…

1) Humane people The Hittites they actively fought but, by the standards of that time, they were quite gentle people and avoided violence. The Hittites had no passion for torture and cruelty, unlike the Assyrian kings who had it to the full. They wanted the inhabitants of the conquered lands to respect new rulers, obey them out of love but not fear, as it was in the Assyria. Their laws were quite humane. Almost any crime was punishable by a payment in cash or in kind. Thus, the killer could…

principles. The first being that the Romans instigated the Ludi Romai as an annual gesture of appreciation and remembrance to the early Roman victories. While the second reason, which also relates to the origin of these games, was in honor of the god Jupiter. At first the games were a one-day event, held on the 13th of September and were not celebrated every year.

when they were young or if they grew up in a more stable environment. The comet they are calling "Manx", after a cat without a tail, is not the average comet. It contains materials similar to those found in the asteroids stretching between Mars and Jupiter. It also has no long stream of vaporized ice associated with many comets. While scientists continue to work on the mysteries of our universe, Floridians can keep themselves busy with cigar UFO's. Who knows what they will find…

The Hubble Space Telescope discovered/captured images that revealed bright and dark regions on the surface of the dwarf planet Ceres, the largest object in the main asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. It also discovered how old are universe's (13.8 billion years old). If the hubble space telescope then it wouldn't have gotten the big areas such has like stars, galaxies, and our…

I agree with the previous writer in terms of the risk Khrushchev took by placing nuclear missiles on Cuba.
