The Wall fell due to both internal pressures within East Germany and the USSR, as well as external pressures from the West. Gorbachev's policies of perestroika and glasnost signaled to West Germany that the Soviet Union would no longer use force to control its satellite states. This abandonment of the Brezhnev Doctrine doomed East Germany. Finally, on July 1, 1990, East and West Germany were reunited under West Germany's existing government structure as the Federal Republic of Germany.

Cold War Day 4
The fall of the Berlin Wall was caused by both internal pressures within the USSR and external geopolitical factors. Mikhail Gorbachev visited West Germany in 1989 and informed their leader that the Soviet Union would no longer use force to control its satellite states, effectively ending the Cold War. This meant that East and West Germany no longer needed to remain separate, as the superpowers were withdrawing from the conflict. On July 1, 1990, East and West Germany were formally reunited under West Germany's existing government structure.
25th Anniversary of the falling of The Wall
The document commemorates the 25th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall on November 9, 1989, an event that had enormous consequences, including the end of communism in Eastern Europe, German reunification, and the conclusion of the Cold War. It credits leaders like Mikhail Gorbachev, Lech Walesa, and Pope John Paul II for playing central roles in this historic event. While the wall symbolized division, some aspects still distinguish the former East and West Germany today, and other barriers have been erected globally in the past 25 years.

The war of the spanish sucession
The War of the Spanish Succession was fought from 1701-1714 over who would succeed the throne of Spain after King Carlos II died without an heir. France supported Carlos II's choice of Philip of Anjou to unite Spain and France under one crown, occupying parts of the Spanish Netherlands and Italy. However, England, Austria, the Netherlands, and Prussia opposed this union and backed Charles, the son of the Holy Roman Emperor, to separate the thrones. Ultimately, Philip was confirmed as King of Spain but had to renounce claims to France, and the Spanish Empire was divided between Philip and Charles.
The war of Spanish Succession
The War of the Spanish Succession began after the death of the last Spanish Habsburg king in 1700 without an heir, leading to a dispute over who would inherit the Spanish throne. Philip of France assumed the throne as Philip V in 1701, but was opposed by the Grand Alliance of Prussia, England, Austria and the Netherlands. The Treaty of Utrecht in 1713 ended the war, confirming Philip V as King of Spain but requiring he renounce claims to the French throne, and dividing the Spanish Empire between Spain, Austria and Britain, bankrupting France.
War Of Spanish Succession To Upload
The document discusses the War of Spanish Succession that occurred after the death of Charles II, the last Spanish Habsburg king. Charles II was literally insane for most of his life due to inbreeding in the royal family and suffered from a disfiguring genetic jaw disorder. With no heir, King Louis XIV of France and Holy Roman Emperor Leopold I both positioned themselves to take over Spain by marrying Charles II's sisters. This caused conflict between those who wanted France or Austria to control Spain. Ultimately, the will of Charles II named a grandson of Louis XIV as the new King of Spain, starting the Bourbon line and leading to war between France and an alliance of European powers known as the Grand Alliance.

The end of communism in Russia and Germany occurred in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Mikhail Gorbachev's reforms in the Soviet Union weakened communist rule and led to the dissolution of the USSR in 1991. In East Germany, citizens demanded democratic reforms and open borders in 1989, leading to the fall of the Berlin Wall and eventual reunification of Germany in 1990 under a democratic government.
EXERCISE 13.pdf
The Berlin Wall was constructed in 1961 to prevent mass emigration from East Berlin and East Germany to West Berlin and West Germany. Over its 28-year history, the wall was a key symbol of the Cold War division between the communist Eastern Bloc and the capitalist West. Mikhail Gorbachev's reforms in the Soviet Union in the late 1980s helped accelerate democratic reforms in Eastern Europe. On November 9, 1989, the East German government unexpectedly allowed citizens to pass through border checkpoints between East and West Berlin, effectively ending travel restrictions. This led to the dismantling of the Berlin Wall and German reunification within a year. The fall of the Berlin Wall marked the end of the Cold War and the division of Germany.
The cold war era
The Cold War was a period of geopolitical tension between the Soviet Union and its allies on one side and the United States and its allies on the other. This stemmed from differing ideologies and competition over political and economic influence. Key events that heightened tensions included the Truman Doctrine, formation of NATO and the Warsaw Pact, space and arms races, and the Cuban Missile Crisis. The Cold War ended in 1991 with the collapse of the Soviet Union due to various economic and political pressures.
Revolution of 1989 East Germany
Beginning in May 1989, thousands of East Germans fled to West Germany through Hungary after it dismantled its border with Austria. By October 1989, East Germany had closed its borders with neighboring countries, leaving only Czechoslovakia. Large protests grew in East Germany, with over 70,000 protesters in Leipzig in early October despite threats of violence from authorities. Facing widespread unrest, East Germany's government opened the border with Czechoslovakia in November, allowing East Germans to flee to West Germany directly and precipitating the fall of the Berlin Wall later that month. East Germany held its first free elections in March 1990 and was reunified with West Germany in October 1990.
Communism and its effects on the German Democratic Republic
The document discusses how communism transformed East Germany (German Democratic Republic) after World War 2. It established a one-party communist state led by Walter Ulbricht and the Socialist Unity Party (SED). While ostensibly a multi-party democracy, the SED maintained control over political decisions and suppressed opposition. The economy focused on heavy industry and collectivization of agriculture caused unrest until concessions were made. Tensions with the West led to the construction of the Berlin Wall in 1961 to stop mass emigration to West Germany. Life in the GDR centered around state-controlled mass organizations and upward social mobility depended on political loyalty to the SED.
Breakup of the Soviet Union Causes & Consequences
The breakup of the Soviet Union, the largest country in size, in 1991 was one of the top five news of the 20th century
Caused by multiple reasons, it resulted in multi-dimensional consequences, short term as well as long term
Some of the consequences we are still witnessing even in the 21st century, some may be witnessed by the coming generations
This presentation is an attempt to analyse the causes of this momentous event and assess its far-reaching consequences
Geschiedenis the collapse of communism reunification
- The collapse of East Germany began in 1989 with Hungary opening its border with Austria, allowing hundreds of East Germans to flee to the West. Mass protests in East Germany escalated in October 1989, leading to Honecker's removal from power. On November 9th, 1989, the Berlin Wall was opened when border guards allowed East Berliners to cross freely into West Berlin.
- Economic stagnation and political dissent grew sharply in East Germany throughout the 1980s. Gorbachev's reforms in the Soviet Union encouraged opposition groups in East Germany and removed Soviet support for the East German government.
- German reunification was completed in 1990 when East Germany's states joined West Germany and free all
End of cold_war
1. Gorbachev introduced reforms of glasnost and perestroika and withdrew Soviet troops from Eastern Europe to cut costs, but this weakened communist control in those countries.
2. As Eastern European states rejected communism beginning in 1989, the Soviet-led Warsaw Pact military alliance became obsolete and was formally dissolved in 1991.
3. The collapse of Soviet control in Eastern Europe and reforms within the USSR itself ultimately led to the dissolution of the Soviet Union in December 1991 and the end of the Cold War, leaving the United States as the world's sole superpower.
cold-war.pdf
The Cold War was a period of geopolitical tension between the Soviet Union and its allies on one side and the United States and its allies on the other following World War II. This ideological conflict between communism and capitalism was expressed through military coalitions, arms races, proxy wars and espionage. Key events included the Berlin Blockade, the Space Race, and the Cuban Missile Crisis, which brought the two sides close to nuclear war. The Cold War ended in 1991 with the collapse of the Soviet Union due to economic and political pressures.

Changing Cold War Relations - revolution in europe
Revolutions swept across Eastern Europe in 1989, ending communist rule. Mikhail Gorbachev's reforms in the Soviet Union reduced control over Eastern Europe and emboldened opposition groups. In Poland, the Solidarity movement's success in elections marked the end of communist rule. Inspired by Poland, Hungary and East Germany saw major reforms and protests against their communist governments. By the end of 1989, communist governments had fallen across Eastern Europe, and pro-Soviet governments no longer existed. The Soviet Union itself dissolved in 1991 amid economic problems and demands for change, bringing an official end to the Cold War.
Reasons the Cold War ended - failure of communism in Eastern Europe
During the 1980s, growing anti-Soviet protests in Poland and Eastern Europe weakened Soviet control over the Eastern Bloc. In Poland, the Solidarity trade union movement led by Lech Walesa gained over 10 million members and inspired protests against food shortages, high prices, and lack of religious freedom. Mikhail Gorbachev's leadership allowed the changes in Poland to occur without Soviet intervention, emboldening other Eastern European nations to demand freedom. The opening of the Berlin Wall in 1989 and free elections in Eastern Europe ended Communist rule as the Cold War drew to a close.
Berlin wall
The document summarizes the history of the Berlin Wall, which was built in 1961 by East Germany to stop the flow of people escaping from East to West Berlin. It stood as a symbol of the Cold War division of Germany for 28 years. The Wall was a response to the mass emigration of over 2.5 million East Germans to the more prosperous and free West between 1949-1961, which undermined East Germany's communist regime by depriving it of professionals and intellectuals. Despite earlier attempts to restrict movement, the communist governments of East Germany and Soviet Russia ultimately decided to close the border entirely with the Berlin Wall to gain control over emigration.
End of the cold war
- After Stalin's death in 1953, Khrushchev publicly denounced Stalin and began destalinization, opening up the Soviet Union. In the 1970s, Nixon and Brezhnev initiated détente and SALT talks to limit nuclear weapons. Reagan took a stronger stance against communism in the 1980s.
- Mikhail Gorbachev implemented glasnost (openness) and perestroika (economic restructuring) in the 1980s to reform the Soviet Union. This led to the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989 and German reunification in 1990.
- Attempts to depose Gorbachev in a 1991 coup failed when Yeltsin and the people refused to back down. This
The Post War World Part 5
1. Mikhail Gorbachev came to power in the Soviet Union in 1985 and introduced reforms of openness (glasnost) and economic restructuring (perestroika) to revitalize the Soviet economy amid stagnation.
2. Gorbachev sought to reduce Cold War tensions and nuclear arms, signing treaties with the US that eliminated intermediate-range nuclear weapons in Europe.
3. Inspired by Gorbachev's reforms and tolerance of dissent, opposition groups in Eastern Europe demanded changes, leading to the election of the first non-communist government in Poland in 1989 and undermining Soviet control in the region.
Day 1 Pp
After World War 2, Germany and Berlin were divided between the Western Allies and Soviet Union. Tensions rose as many East Germans fled to the West for greater economic opportunities. In 1961, East Germany erected the Berlin Wall to prevent further emigration, trapping its population. Over its 28-year history, the Wall killed over 200 people trying to cross into the West. Internal pressures in East Germany and the Soviet Union's abandonment of the Brezhnev Doctrine led to the Wall's fall in 1989 and German reunification in 1990.

These reforms unintentionally sparked political changes across Eastern Europe as countries gained more independence.

By 1991, the Soviet Union dissolved entirely as the separate republics declared independence, bringing an end to the Cold War.

It analyzes three paintings in particular - a landscape by Monet, a portrait by Rembrandt, and an abstract piece by Pollock - describing their subject matter, artistic styles, and other key details.

This document is a poster from anti-Bolshevik White Guards during the Russian Revolution fall of 1917. It calls to "Defend Petrograd with your life!" against the advancing White Army led by General Nicolai Yudenich. In October 1919, Yudenich launched an offensive from Estonia and came within 30 miles of Petrograd before being repelled by Bolshevik forces. The poster may depict Yudenich as the man with a bayonet.
Freud New
The document discusses some key concepts of psychoanalysis including that emotional disturbances can be traced back to earlier forgotten or repressed experiences. It also suggests that humans are not entirely rational and that we are driven by our subconscious. It describes techniques like free association that aim to bring suppressed experiences into conscious awareness to help symptoms disappear. It outlines Freud's theory of personality as consisting of the id, ego, and superego, and how each part relates to concepts like pleasure, morality, and adapting to reality.
Day 3 Power Point
The document summarizes some of the major political changes that occurred in Europe between 1871 and 1914. It discusses the expansion of universal male suffrage, the development of mass political parties, and governments beginning to take on more responsibility for social and economic problems through early "welfare states." Specific examples are provided about the establishment of republican governments in France after revolutions in the 1870s and reforms in Britain under William Gladstone and Benjamin Disraeli that expanded education, regulated working conditions, and regulated housing for the poor.

French Revolution Day 3
Day 3 of the French Revolution saw an angry Paris mob seeking revenge and retaliation. According to a historical website, the mob was comprised of radical Jacobins who were instigating the Reign of Terror led by Robespierre. The Reign of Terror was later followed by the Thermidorian Reaction and the rule of the Directory.
French Revolution Day 2
The document outlines plans for Day 2 of the French Revolution. The original plan is not specified. The final plan is also not detailed, as the document simply states there was an original plan that was later altered, without providing any specifics about the original or final plans for Day 2 of the French Revolution.
Ded Induc Theories
The document discusses theories of scientific method, including deductive reasoning exemplified by Descartes' "Cogito ergo sum" where conclusions necessarily follow from known premises, and inductive reasoning discussed by Bacon where conclusions are supported but not ensured by premises based on many observations, encouraging cooperative research.
Opening Enlightenment Day
The document argues that natural science and reason can explain all aspects of life, including human society, and that progress is possible through applying the scientific method. It notes that Enlightenment thinking impacted the urban middle class and aristocracy in Europe but had little effect on urban poor and peasants who were more focused on survival. The document also defines a philosophe as a thinker unconstrained by religion who was critical of nobility and clergy and questioned human nature, government, and advocated for freedom, individuality, and social improvements.
Day 4 Power Point
The document discusses Horatio Alger's "rags to riches" concept and how immigrants' expectations of America can be ironic. It also references the 1992 film Far and Away where Tom Cruise plays Joseph, a poor Irish farmer, and Nicole Kidman plays Shannon, the daughter of a rich Irish landowner.
Post Cold War I
This document provides a timeline of key events from 1990 to 1993 following the end of the Cold War, including the reunification of Germany in 1990 and 1991, and the peaceful dissolution of Czechoslovakia into the Czech Republic and Slovakia in 1992 known as the "Velvet Divorce", with the Czech Republic joining the European Union in 2004.
Post Cold War Ii
The post-Cold War era saw continued globalization and the rise of new powers. While the threat of global conflict declined, new challenges emerged such as terrorism, cyber threats, and regional conflicts. Overall, the world became more interconnected through increased trade and information sharing, but also faced new uncertainties from non-state actors and the potential instability from a shifting global power dynamic.
Post Cold War Iii
This document summarizes German chancellors after the Cold War period, including Helmut Schmidt (1974-1982) as a Social Democrat, Helmut Kohl (1982-1998) as a Christian Democrat, and Gerhard Schroder (1998-2005) as a Social Democrat. It also mentions Angela Merkel, who became chancellor in 2005 as the first female and first East German chancellor. The document then provides a brief overview of existentialism and some of its key philosophers like Sartre, Camus, Heidegger and Nietzsche. It discusses their views on individual responsibility and rejection of traditional sources of meaning and values.

A.为什么留学生需要操作留信认证?
留信认证全称全国留学生信息服务网认证,隶属于北京中科院。①留信认证门槛条件更低,费用更美丽,并且包过,完单周期短,效率高②留信认证虽然不能去国企,但是一般的公司都没有问题,因为国内很多公司连基本的留学生学历认证都不了解。这对于留学生来说,这就比自己光拿一个证书更有说服力,因为留学学历可以在留信网站上进行查询!
B.为什么我们提供的毕业证成绩单具有使用价值？
查询留服认证是国内鉴别留学生海外学历的唯一途径但认证只是个体行为不是所有留学生都操作所以没有办理认证的留学生的学历在国内也是查询不到的他们也仅仅只有一张文凭。所以这时候我们提供的和学校颁发的一模一样的毕业证成绩单就有了使用价值。乌龟和王八贼头贼脑的倒也逗人喜爱日上三竿时山娃总爱窜进自家瓜棚里跟小伙伴们坐着聊天聊着聊着便忍不住往瓜田里逡巡一番抱起一只硕大的西瓜用石刀劈开抑或用拳头砸开每人抱起一大块就啃啃得满嘴满脸猴屁股般的红艳大家一个劲地指着对方吃吃地笑瓜裂得古怪奇形怪状却丝毫不影响瓜味甜丝丝的满嘴生津遍地都是瓜横七竖八的活像掷满了一地的大石块摘走二三只爷爷是断然发现不了的即便发现爷爷也不恼反而教山娃辨认孰熟孰嫩孰甜孰淡水
