I took a very interesting class called, "The Politics of the Cold War"
Many political scientist believe, and it is very reasonable to believe that the world was safer during the cold war. Understand that the world was polorized during the cold war. Everyone lined up on one side of the other, or were Soviet satellites. On the opposite side there was the west that depended on the US for protection.
These two giants never wanted to face off. The US and the Soviets both had a policy called MAD (Mutual Assured Destruction). Which meant that if either country launched a nuclear attack, the other would counter. This would basically mean the end of the world.
So the world was probably safer during the cold war than it is today. There were actually cool heads on both sides that never wanted to push "the button" Unfotunately, Eastern Europe who had to live under Soviet domination had to suffer until the Soviet Union collapsed under its own wight and misguided economy under communist rule.
Of course Reagan, Thatcher, and Gorbchev came to the table to discuss changes and to try to decrease the nuclear arsenal. They deserve credit for that. But everyone was surprised, including Gorbie, when the Soviet Union collapsed and their was a coup there. So Reagan did not CAUSE the collapse of the Soviet Union. It was decaying for a long time, and we just didn't know about it.
But to the Soviets amazement, we reached out to help them, rather than invade them. The politics of fear is a very powerful thing. Sometime is can drive us to war, other times it wards off a preemptive, out of the fear of lethal retaliation.
After world war II america had a vision of the world, a vision in which democracy should be practiced, to guarantee the freedom of everybody. As forcommunism, did not meet the visions of America, it became a great threat to the hopes of having a democratic atmosphere.

Asia is a continent, and no. I mean some places in Asia maybe, but I'm not really sure. Asia is a continent and is made up of many country's, some of which are third world country's.
True.
mathematics, just like all of the sciences is the human way of making sense of the world around us. we, as a species, feel the need to categorize and explain everything. math exists in nature, because we invented math to explain the wonder that is nature.
The nature of man refers to the inherent characteristics and traits that define human beings, such as rationality, emotions, consciousness, and the capacity for social interactions. It is a complex interplay of biological, psychological, and social factors that shape human behavior and experiences. Understanding the nature of man is essential for insights into human motivations, relationships, and society as a whole.
The obsolete technologies and lack of "green" laws
A:To speak of the laws of nature is a way of saying what will and must happen, because this is the only way the natural world works. To speak of the laws of God in this context is to explain the laws of nature in terms of a supernatural creator believed to have defined the way the natural world works.
Creation myths are traditional stories that often attempt to explain the nature of the world and human experiences. These stories typically involve the origins of the universe, how humans came to be, and important aspects of life such as love, death, and suffering. Creation myths are found in cultures around the world and serve to provide a framework for understanding the world and one's place in it.
Yes, it was so successful, there was a sequel. I even heard there is a third in the making. I hope this helps.
Gravity is an example of a force of nature being studied by physics. Physics is a human endevour to help increase our understanding of the natural world. To describe nature we have theories; for example we have the Theory of Gravity to explain gravity.
Third World debt is external debt incurred by Third World countries. Third World debt is external debt incurred by Third World countries.
Growing larger means more of nature is taken and simply put, we are destroying nature as if we own it. Small indigenent cultures are being wiped out for sake of industrial growth.
To explain history, ritual, nature, and natural phenomena.
