(Čching) zažila pád po sérii porážek, jež oslabili pozici dračího císaře a jeho autoritu. Legitimita jeho vlády byla zpochybněna a následné bouře a povstání warlordů na západě byly jen začátkem koncem Říše středu. - Čínsko – Japonská válka. Čína přišla o svůj vliv na Koreu, která se stala loutkou Japonského císařství. To následně upevnilo v Korei svou pozici. Japonsko získalo Tai- wan. - Rusko-Čínská válka. Ruská říše získala Mongolsko a Sinkiang. - Válka o Koncese. Válka Evropských mocností (Fr, VB, Něm) + Japonsko s Říší Čhing. Mocnosti získali pozice na pobřeží Číny – Velvyslanecká města, spravovaná guvernéry a odvádějícími zisk z obchodu všem účastníkům (25 % každému). - Britská říše vytvořila Dominium Oceánie – Veškeré kolonie v oblasti Austrálie a Oceánie - V Indii došlo k povstání Gurkhů a k odtržení jejich království (Nepálská i Bhútánská dynastie sjednocena) od vlivu Britů (nemalou pomoc dostali od Rusů a Němců). - V Persii se dostala k moci Hossein Ali Mirza E'tezad Saltaneh, prvorozený syn předchozího šáha (Mozaffar ad-Din Shah Qajar) a to i přesto, že dle všeho měl nastoupit jeho druhorozený syn z důvodu nelegitimity. Přesto se s pomocí vojska dokázal na trůně udržet, odstranil své rebelské sourozence a upevnil svou pozici na trůně. Následně začaly změny. Navázání vztahů s Německem a zahájení mohutné reorganizace armády, administrativy a společnosti celkově. Celková sekularizace společnosti byla o to více znatelná v porovnání se sousední Osmanskou říší, kde docházelo k utužení muslimského chalífátu a bigotnost hrála prim. - Čínská revoluce roku 1911 – Rozpad Říše Qing, ale NE její zánik. Císařské síly udrželi severovýchodní Čínu včetně hlavního města a Mandžusko. Na jihu vznikla Sunjatsenova Čínská republika a na území střední a západní Číny se moci ujali různí revolucionáři a warlordové. EVROPA - Dánsko-Norsko vstupuje do personální unie a zahajuje novou fázi unifikace po atentátu a smrti krále Haakona VII., jeho manželky i syna a dědice Olava. Atentátník byl nalezen a popraven. Nezdálo se, že za tím byla politika, ale čistě nenávist na dána na norském trůně. Haakonův bratr, Dánský princ a dědic tamního trůnu, Kristián X. Ten poté usedl i na trůn Dánského království, když jeho otec abdikoval, aby byla personální unie upevněna. - Ve Švédsku se k vládě dostali radikální nacionalisti, sympatizanti s Německou říší a Pruska obecně. Byla provedena vojenská reforma a Švédská neutralita v případě Evropské války už nebyla jistá. - Ve Španělském království vládně Karlistická větev Bourbonů poté, co vyhráli I. Karlistickou válku, ve které Francie nepodpořila pragmatickou sankci a UK se do konfliktu nehodlala vůbec zapojit. - Unie Portugalska-Španělska od roku 1910, kdy byla Portugalská královská dynastie při revoluci svržena a vyvražděna. Španělské zbraně zajistili pořádek a poté provedli korunovaci nového krále. Tím se stal Jaime de Borbón y de Borbón-Parma, král Iberijský a legitimistický pretendent na korunu Francie. Proti tomu se postavila Brazilská větev Portugalského rodu. Vzhledem k tomu, že tam však vládl syn dcery, nebyla stížnost přijata. Španělské zbraně zajistili zbytek. Tím vznikla Iberijská unie nyní známá jako Iberijská říše. AMERIKA - Maximilián I. Habsbursko-Lotrinský se udržel jako císař Mexického císařství s podporou Francouzských a Iberijských zbraní. Maximilián nadále vládl Mexiku a reformoval ho směrem k modernímu typu monarchie. Po Maximiliánově smrti nastoupil na trůn jeho adoptivní syn, potomek prvního císaře Mexika, Salvador (de Iturbide y Marzán) von Habsburg-Iturbide. - V Brazílii přežila dynastie původně Portugalských císařů, nyní císařů Brazilských. Aktuálním císařem je Pedro de Alcântara of Orléans-Braganza. - Válka Peru s Ekvádorem = Vítězství Peru a obsazení Ekvádoru. Vznik Peruánské říše. Andrés Avelino Cáceres, prezident Peru a generál, se nechal korunovat prvním císařem této říše. Historické změny – Weltkrieg - Velká válka začala historicky (atentátem na Ferdinanda d’Este v Sarajevu v roce 1914) poté, co Srbsko odmítlo ultimátum. - Dohoda: Francouzská republika, Spojené království + Dominia, Ruská říše, Italské království (později), Srbské království, Řecké království (později), Belgické království, Rumunské království (později) - Centrální mocnosti: Německá říše, Rakousko-Uhersko, Osmanská říše (později), Bulharské carství, Iberijská říše (později), Švédské království, Etiopijské císařství (později) - Velká válka se vedla na několika frontách. Nejdůležitější byla bezpochyby fronta západní, kde umírali miliony

  • A Política Nuclear Soviética: Da Segunda Guerra Mundial Ao SALT I
    A Política Nuclear Soviética: da Segunda Guerra Mundial ao SALT I Helena dos Anjos Xavier Rodrigo dos Santos Cassel1 RESUMO: O presente artigo objetiva analisar a política nuclear soviética no período que concerne desde as primeiras iniciativas de pesquisa sobre fissão atômica levadas a cabo pela União Soviética – institucionalmente, a partir de 1942 – até 1972, quando da ocorrência da primeira rodada das Conversações sobre Limites para Armas Estratégicas (SALT I). No trabalho, são apresentados momentos importantes para a doutrina nuclear soviética, tais como o estabelecimento do primeiro programa de pesquisa na área, os primeiros testes nucleares realizados, o desenvolvimento da bomba de hidrogênio, a morte de Stalin em 1953, e a consequente reorganização do aparato burocrático encarregado do programa nuclear. Paralelamente, visa-se à apresentação dos condicionantes que levaram a União Soviética a desenvolver um programa nuclear próprio, ressaltando a necessidade de solidificar e proteger o Estado contra a ameaça imediata representada pelos Estados Unidos. PALAVRAS-CHAVE: Bomba Atômica. União Soviética. Guerra Fria. Programa Nuclear. 1 Graduandos do 6º semestre de Relações Internacionais pela Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS). 8 A Política Nuclear Sóviética: Da Segunda Guerra Mundial ao SALT I 1 Introdução A nível estatal, a política nuclear da União das Repúblicas Socialistas Soviéticas (URSS), previamente à deflagração da Segunda Guerra Mundial, era pequena ou inexistente. Apenas alguns acadêmicos e físicos, de maneira indepen- dente, desenvolviam pesquisas relacionadas à temática da fissão nuclear. Com o escalonamento do conflito, no entanto, e frente a um cenário no qual as nações ocidentais já empenhavam esforços para o desenvolvimento de tal tecnologia, a URSS, liderada à época por Stalin, passara a estabelecer postos dedicados à pesquisa nuclear.

  • Kuroda Papers:” Translation and Commentary
    The “Kuroda Papers:” Translation and Commentary. Dwight R. Rider, Dr. Eric Hehl and Wes Injerd. 30 April 2017 The “Kuroda Papers:” The Kuroda Papers (See: Appendix 1), a set of notes concerning wartime meetings covering issues related to Japan’s atomic energy and weapons program, remain one of the few documents concerning that nation’s wartime bomb program to ever surface. 1 The pages available, detail the background papers supporting the research program and four meetings, one each. held on; 2 July 1943, 6 July 1943, 2 Feb 1944 and 17 Nov 1944 however, these dates may be inaccurate. Kuroda himself had given a copy of the documents to P. Wayne Reagan in the mid-1950s. 2 Knowledge of the papers held by Paul Kuroda was known in some larger circles as early as 1985. According to Mrs. Kuroda’s cover letter returning the papers to Japan, she stated that “Kuroda lectured about the documents to his students and also publicly discussed their existence at international conferences such as the one commemorating the 50th Anniversary of the Discovery of Nuclear Fission in Washington D.C. in 1989, presided over by Professor Glenn Seaborg.” 3 Kuroda is reported to have on occasion; altered, corrected, or edited these papers in the presence of his students at the University of Arkansas during some of his lectures. It is unknown exactly what information contained within the papers Kuroda changed, or his motivations for altering or correcting these notes. The Kuroda Papers were never the property of the Imperial Japanese government, or it’s military, during the war.

  • Dawn of a Thousand Sun Or How a Letter Made the Bomb Unavoidable
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Institutional Research Information System University of Turin 487 Dawn of a Thousand Sun Or How a Letter Made the Bomb Unavoidable by Stefano Ruzza The Einstein-Roosevelt correspondence he starting point of the (real) history of the development of nucle- ar weapons can be traced to the Einstein-Roosevelt correspond- ence. The facts are well documented: the community of Hungari- Tan physicists transplanted in the US, leaded by Leo Szilárd (and including Edward Teller and Eugene Wigner), was seriously concerned about the possible development of nuclear weapons by Nazi Germany. Hence, in July 1939—so just before WW2 broke out in Europe—Szilárd paid several visits to his old acquaintance, Albert Einstein, to convince him to urge the Roosevelt administration to provide Federal support to nuclear research. Szilárd original intention was to use Einstein’s connections to the Belgian royal family for pressuring the latter to protect Congo and its uranium ore from German hands1, but then grown into the idea of getting in touch with the US President instead. In the end, Szilárd drafted the letter and Einstein signed it on August 2, 1939. In short, the letter asked the Administration for three things: to coordinate with the community of American scientists working on the chain reaction; to secure research funds (also by rational- izing already existing efforts); and to address the problem of uranium ore, at the time scarcely available in the US. Einstein fame was enough to guarantee reception of the letter by Roo- sevelt, although delayed by the beginning of hostilities in Europe and thus reaching him only on October 11.

  • A TALE of NINE NEW ELEMENTS SHAIK ANNAR* Department of Chemistry, Govt.Degree College, Udayagiri, SPSR Nellore District, A.P, India
    Special Issue 2014 ISSN: 0974-2115 www.jchps.com Journal of Chemical and Pharmaceutical Sciences A TALE OF NINE NEW ELEMENTS SHAIK ANNAR* Department of Chemistry, Govt.Degree College, Udayagiri, SPSR Nellore District, A.P, India. *Corresponding author: E.Mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Elements are the basic constituents of all types of matter. A chemical element is a pure chemical substance consisting of a single type of atom distinguished by its atomic number. The Discovery of chemical elements has been an ongoing process since ancient times. At present 118 elements are known. Out of these, recently discovered elements are synthetic, manmade and efforts are still going on to synthesis new elements by artificial transmutation. In this, I reviewed the basic information and properties of the Z=110 to 118 elements. KEYWORDS: New elements, atomic number, Isotopes, radioactive elements. INTRODUCTION Chemistry plays a dominant role in the development of modern human societies over the entire globe. It has done so by virtue of the central position it has occupied in improving the health and nutrition of people. Chemical elements are central for the existence of life and the richness and variety of our environment. Therefore, one of the basic questions concerns the origin of the chemical elements. The answer is complex because it relies on dynamical processes from elementary particles and nuclei to stars and galaxies. An interdisciplinary effort of various fields of science achieved considerable progress in this direction of research. The periodic table with new elements always a favourite among chemists. Therefore, the Periodic Table currently contains 118 elements, the lightest being hydrogen and the heaviest yet unnamed eka-radon (or Uuo,ununoctium).
