i put usa came out better.
USA- kennedy looked stong as he made krushchev give in
-got the missiles removed from cuba
-kennedy stood up to goverment hardliners and chose to blockade cuba.

USSR-they now had ended the usa's monroe doctrine as there was now a communist country in the usa's backyard.
-kennedy removed missiles from turkey.

but overall america came out better as the american public were not told that the missiles had been removed from turkey.

nah the message was that the people of montgommery Alabama are boycotting the bus service and using things such as car pools.
For the photograph I kinda messed up I spoke about how these prohibition agents did a successful raid and looked pleased and how prohibition was enforced during the 1920s
Didn't the question say who was in a better position by 1949? Wasn't the Cuban Missile crisis in the 1960s. I put stuff like Berlin Blockade, Stalin'c control of Eastern Europe etc..
Thank You though.

I said the opposite and suggested that agents were corrupt and drank alcohol - this showed how Prohibition failed as the enforcers consumed stuff they were supposed to eradicate.

I think I am 100 percent wrong.
