Attack of the twin towers
Death or death. On the morning of September 11, 2001, dozens of people faced
this false alternative. With fire and smoke inside the World Trade Center buildings
in New York, victims on the upper floors began to jump, losing their lives after
falling up to 417 meters high.
The scene of people jumping from buildings attacked by two planes is one of the
darkest and most sensitive aspects of the tragedy, which marks 20 years this
Saturday.

Second World War

Mobilization Effort: The U.S. government’s mobilization effort during World War II
surpassed even that of World War I. American industries fueled both the Atlantic
and Pacific theaters, leading to unprecedented production levels1.
Social and Economic Consequences:
The Great Migration occurred, with African Americans moving from the rural South
to the industrial North.
New opportunities opened up for women.
Americans enjoyed a higher standard of living than during the pre-Depression
years.

Civil Wor
The Civil War began because of irreconcilable differences between states that
supported and those that rejected slavery regarding the authority of the national
government to prohibit slavery in territories that had not yet become states. When
Abraham Lincoln won the election in 1860 and became the first Republican
president to publicly promise to free the territories from slavery, seven southern
slave states seceded and formed a new nation, the Confederate States of America.
The incoming Lincoln administration and most northerners refused to recognize the
legitimacy of secession. They feared that it would discredit democracy and create a
fateful precedent that would eventually fragment the no longer united states into
several smaller, weaker countries.

Traditional American food

Hot Dogs: While Germans and Austrians disagree about who first invented the hot
dog, mentions of sausages date back to Roman times, though it was German
“dachshund” sausages that first caught the attention of the American public. The
sausages were wildly popular at the 1893 Columbian Exposition in Chicago, where
many say the invention of the hot dog bun occurred.
Pop corn: As the imperative on the Orville Redenbacher site urges: “All hail the
super snack.” The bow-tied entrepreneur pitched his popcorn tent in Valparaiso,
Indiana, which celebrates its heritage at the Valparaiso Popcorn Festival the first
Saturday after Labor Day.

Independence

On April 19, 1775, British soldiers left Boston to prevent the rebellion of the
colonists by taking a weapons depot of the latter in the neighboring city of Concord.
In the town of Lexington they faced 70 militiamen. Nobody knows who opened fire
and thus began the war of independence. The British took Lexington and Concord,
but on their return to Boston they were harassed by hundreds of volunteers from
Massachusetts, Lexington, and Concord. The first casualties of the conflict occur,
eight settler soldiers. By June, 10,000 colonial soldiers laid siege to Boston.

Apolo 11
The space race was one of the many manifestations of the Cold War, an
economic, political and ideological conflict, led by the United States of America
(USA) and the Soviet Union (USSR). In this context, the decades of the 50s and
60s were especially important, since during that period some of the most relevant
events in the history of space exploration were recorded. Thus, for a few years, the
USSR was the state that took advantage, successfully launching a satellite and
sending the first manned missions. But, in the face of these events, the reaction of
the Americans began to take shape and, by 1969, it took shape in the feat of
Apollo 11, the first and only mission, to date, that has taken humans to the Moon.
