How successful was Gladstone’s first ministry? If ‘achieving what you set out to do’ defines successful, then Gladstone’s First Ministry was certainly a success. The Acts that were passed during his time as leader of the Liberal party had great impact on the population both then, and in some cases, still now.

Propaganda was very important in the Nazi’s maintaining their power once they won the election in 1933. In the Nazis campaigns previous to them gaining power, they had exploited all the media they could in order to appeal to the public. Hitler’s speeches were played on the radio, his beliefs were written about in Nazi newspapers and magazines and posters containing horrific propaganda were placed everywhere. The public were bombarded with so much powerful propaganda that it could be argued that it would be almost impossible for them not to become attracted to the Nazi party in some way. This propaganda continued even once they had won the election.

One of the greatest attributes of McDonald's is its "everyday affordability" message that drives customers to McDonald's restaurants. Through marketing McDonalds has the best customer base of all companies, ranging from 3 years old all the way up to the senior citizen with a discount.

The majority of this was due to the strength of the industry and big business in America. In addition, big business could rely on the government as Republican presidents such as Calvin Coolidge created pro-business policies with the help of individuals like Andrew Mellon who were committed to cutting government intervention (laissez-faire) and keeping taxes low, therefore help big business to benefit in the long run. An example of this is Henry Ford who created the Ford T Model; a cheap, mass-produced car which cost $400, four months wages of an average worker and with new credit deals available every American family could afford to won one. Some historians have claimed that the full employment and low inflation of the 1920s was the best economic performance of any decade in the history of the USA, hence the name ‘the roaring twenties’.

John D. Rockefeller And The Standard Oil Company John Rockefeller was born to a very pious mother and a father of questionable morals and ethics. His legendary career began in America's gilded age, a period of unprecedented change. His unprecedented power and wealth prompted new laws that sought to end an era of dominance by so-called “robber barons”. Although he completely dominated his industry, oil and petroleum refining and products, by all but destroying his competition, he is also one of the greatest philanthropists the world has ever known. John Rockefeller’s 98-year life span began in New York in 1839.
"Roosevelt again and again exploited the masterful device of radio "fireside chats" to report directly to an anxious national audience, and his calm assurance did much to restore American's confidence in theses and in their government". The New Deal, being such a complex plan, had many critics. A conservative and largely hostile Supreme Court encountered him with his most formidable opposition. The Supreme court interpreted the Constitution in such a manner as to invalidate vital portions of the New Deal's liberal legislative program. Roosevelt did what he could to replace the Supreme Court members because he wanted his plan to pass, for the benefit of the nation.
“Never was so much owed by so many to so few”. This famous quote given in a 1940 speech by British Prime Minister Winston Churchill was used to describe the valiant, and ultimately victorious efforts of Royal Air Force pilots in the Battle of Britain. The Battle of Britain was an aerial battle fought from June 1940 to October 1940. The battle was fought between the air forces of England (RAF) and Germany (Luftwaffe). England would ultimately win the battle, but much to the endurance of heavy losses, both military and civilian.
