What are 2 business examples of a takeover?

One good example of a business takeover is that of Cadbury by Kraft foods in 2010. There was uproar by the British public when it was announced and rumours of staff reductions and operations closures spread and produced a negative effect for Kraft. Kraft had to borrow over $7billion to fund the takeover and this increased its already unstable debt problems. A major reason for the takeover was for Kraft to increase its brand range and acquire the Cadbury chocolate brand. Another example is that of AOL the Internet service provider acquiring Time Warner. This was the highest valued takeover in the world during the 21st Century and is also a textbook case as to how not to do a takeover. Cultural problems as well as management and organisational clashes made it difficult for AOL to achieve the benefits it was hoping for from the takeover and made it one of the most costly mistakes AOL had made.


What happened during the military takeover in Rome?

There was not a military takeover in Rome. There was the military anarchy of the Crisis of the Third Century, where many emperors were military commanders who had been proclaimed emperors by their troops. However, this was not actually a military takeover. There were many civil wars and the turnover of emperors was high as many were murdered by troops, sometimes even by their own troops which had proclaimed them sometimes because they did not want to fight civil wars against rivals who wanted to depose the incumbent emperor.

Who is the founder of Macedonia?

Answer: The first recorded Macedonian kingdom emerged around the 8th century B.C, under a dynasty originating from the city-state of Argos in the Peloponnese Greece, and also claiming descendence from the mythical hero Hercules. According to legend, they migrated to the region and gave their name to it: the Argeads. It should be mentioned that the Macedonian tribe ruled by the Argeads, was itself called Argead (which translates from Greek "descended from Argos"). The first recorded king was Perdikkas the 1st.
