Mini originated as one specific vehicle, a small car originally known as the Morris Mini-Minor launched by the British Motor Corporation in 1959. The original two-door Mini continued in production until 2000. Development of a successor began in 1995 and the new generation car was launched in 2001. The Mini Hatch/Hardtop, Clubman and Convertible are assembled at Plant Oxford in Cowley, United Kingdom and the Countryman is assembled by Magna Steyr in Austria. The Mini brand has had a number of owners during its history. In 1966 the British Motor Corporation became part of British Moto the Mini brand has had a number of owners during its history. In 1966 the British Motor Corporation became part of British Motor Holdings and in 1968 British Motor Holdings merged with Leyland Motors to form Leyland Holdings and in 1968 British Motor Holdings merged with Leyland Motors to form British Leyland. The Mini was again marketed under the Austin name in the 1980s. Mini came about because of a fuel shortage caused by the 1956 Suez Crisis. Petrol was once again rationed in the UK, sales of large cars slumped, the market for German Bubble cars boomed. Leonard Lord, the somewhat autocratic head of BMC, reportedly detested these cars so much that he vowed to rid the streets of them and design a 'proper miniature car´. He laid down some bas ic design requirements: the car should be contained within a box that measured 10 × 4 × 4 an existing unit. Issigonis, who had been working for Alvis, had been recruited back to BMC in 1955 and, with his skills in designing small cars, was a natural for the task.

It is produced by The Coca-Cola Company of Atlanta (United States). It was invented in the late 19th century by John Pemberton, Coca-Cola was bought out by businessman Asa Griggs Candler. The company produces concentrate, which is then sold to licensed Coca-Cola bottlers throughout the world. In 1892 Candler incorporated a second company, The Coca-Cola Company, and in 1910 Candler had the earliest records of the company burned, further obscuring its legal origins. By the time of its 50th anniversary, the drink had reached the status of a national icon in the USA. On April 23, 1985, Coca-Cola, amid much publicity, attempted to change the formula of the drink with "New Coke". When launched Coca-Cola's two key ingredients were cocaine and caffeine. The exact formula of Coca-Cola's natural flavorings is a trade secret. The famous Coca-Cola logo was created by John Pemberton's bookkeeper, Frank Mason Robinson, in 1885. Pepsi is usually second to Coke in sales, but outsells Coca-Cola in some markets. Around the world, some local brands compete with Coke. Studies indicate that Coca-Cola and other soft drinks can be harmful if consumed excessively, particularly to young children.
