What events happened during the year of 1947?

Answer 1

without looking it up,I think the country of Israel was formed as a nation. The Reconstruction of Europe and Japan was approved by Congress.India had a democratic government.
Truman was President.
Senator John F Kennedy entered congress.
okay I am going to look it up..
actually I think I was pretty accurate..India got their Independence from Great Britian,and the Marshall plan was proposed in congress.
The Yankees won the world series. O.J. Simpson was born. Al Capone died . Dead sea scrolls were found.
I was looking at the cars and I think the Mercury Sedan was the best looking car made in that year,some of the autos looked like Volkswagon Beetles.
JFK became a congressman in 1946,but I don't think he was sworn in until January so I might still be right about the year.
A "Roswell crash happened on July 3,1947" sparking a fliying saucer mania in the USA.
I guess it was a very interesting time to be alive in the United States at that time when anything seemed possible.
Woman at the time came back from the war ,relagating their duties to child bearing and marriage and a flight to the suburbs ensued,sparking the economy with purchases of automobiles,and home buying.

Answer 2

The Greek government was fighting the Communists, supported by British soldiers. When, in February 1947, the British said they could no longer afford to keep soldiers in Greece, President Truman stepped in. He paid for the British soldiers in Greece.

Then, in March 1947, Truman took this further. He said it was America’s DUTY to ‘contain’ Communism (the ‘Truman Doctrine’). Truman had officially declared ‘cold war’ on Russia.

Next, the Americans announced how they intended to wage ‘cold war’. In June 1947, the American general George Marshall went to Europe. He said every country in Europe was so poor that it was in danger of turning Communist! He said that America should give $17 billion of aid to get Europe’s economy going.

Stalin retaliated. He forbade Communist countries to ask for money. Instead, in October 1947, he set up Cominform. Every Communist party in Europe joined. It allowed Stalin control of the Communists in Europe.

Hope this helps.
