Answer:
Explanation:
Joe McCarthy gave anti-Communism a bad name. The excesses of McCarthy's witch-hunts discredited the whole idea of a Communist menace. they were too easy to lampoon, and after a few years of over-estimating the Communist threat, America spent decades tending to under-estimate the Communist menace.
Not only did the Cold War shape U.S. foreign policy, it also had a profound effect on domestic affairs. Americans had long feared radical subversion. These fears could at times be overdrawn, and used to justify otherwise unacceptable political restrictions, but it also was true that individuals under Communist Party discipline and many "fellow traveler" hangers-on gave their political allegiance not to the United States, but to the international Communist movement, or, practically speaking, to Moscow.

Explanation:
George Washington was born on February 22, 1732 in northern Virginia. He was the son of Augustine and Mary Ball Washington. His father died in 1743, leaving Washington with little inheritance. His hopes for school dashed, Washington found work surveying and took several journeys to the frontier where he developed an interest in the West. In 1752 George's half-brother Lawrence died, and Lawrence's estate at Mount Vernon went to George. Washington also was appointed an officer in the Virginia militia the same year. In 1754 he led a diplomatic mission to evict the French from the Ohio River Valley but created an international incident when he killed a French soldier and was later defeated. He returned in 1755 with British General Edward Braddock to evict the French but failed as Braddock's army lost. The British finally secured the valley in 1758.
After, Washington resigned from the militia and concentrated on working his plantation. He married Martha Dandridge Custis in 1759, joined the Virginia House of Burgesses, and promoted a scheme to build a canal between the Ohio and Potomac Rivers. He also experimented with different crops and growing techniques on his land. When the colonies began to protest British laws in the 1760s, Washington was a leader of the movement in Virginia to boycott British goods. In 1774, he attended a meeting in Fairfax County where the delegates resolved to use force against Britain if it would not listen to American complaints. He then attended the First Continental Congress in Philadelphia. By the time of the Second Continental Congress in 1775, the Revolutionary War had begun. The delegates decided to raise an army to fight Britain. Washington was elected to lead it.

Washington traveled to Cambridge, Massachusetts to take command of the army. It consisted only of several thousand poorly trained militia members. Washington trained the army and succeeded in driving the British out of Boston, which they had occupied. He then led the army south to New York, where he met the British at Long Island. This battle was disastrous and forced Washington to retreat through New York and into New Jersey. With winter coming, his supplies low, and his troops eager to go home, Washington was on the verge of losing the war. Then he struck the British by surprise, capturing the Hessian mercenaries at the Battle of Trenton. He eventually retook most of New Jersey. The following summer he lost the Battles of Brandywine and Germantown but proved that the American army could withstand the British. He fended off an attempt by members of Congress to have him fired, then camped with his army for the winter at Valley Forge, where his men suffered greatly from cold and hunger.
In the spring of 1778 France agreed to join the war on America's side. Washington led his troops against the British at the Battle of Monmouth Courthouse, which was a stalemate. In 1780 a French army arrived under the command of the Comte de Rochambeau, Washington and de Rochambeau gave up plans to attack New York and marched instead to Yorktown, Virginia, where they defeated the British army with the help of France's navy. This spectacular victory effectively ended the Revolution. Washington remained in command until a formal agreement to end the war was reached; in the meantime he tried to keep his restless soldiers from overthrowing Congress. In December of 1783, he resigned his command of the army, an act of selflessness that amazed the entire world.

Ancient Greek names were patronymic, it means the name of a Greek were formed based on his/her father's name, for example, Stevenson (son of Steven) is a patronymic name in English. Additionally, the country/city of origin was also added to the full name. We can say they followed the next pattern:
Personal or given name + father’s name + name that indicates the origin city or particular family.
