At the Yalta Conference in February 1945, Winston Churchill and Franklin D. Roosevelt compromised their democratic ideals to secure Soviet support for the final stages of World War II and to shape the post-war order. They conceded to Joseph Stalin's demands for influence in Eastern Europe, particularly by allowing Soviet control over Poland and other nations, in exchange for Stalin's commitment to join the fight against Japan and participate in the United Nations. This pragmatic approach reflected the urgency of the war's conclusion, overshadowing their concerns about Stalin's expansionist tendencies and the spread of communism. Ultimately, this compromise was seen as a necessary trade-off to ensure cooperation among the Allies.

Something that is incapable of compromise is often rooted in absolute principles or beliefs, such as fundamental ethical values or deeply held convictions. For instance, issues like human rights and personal integrity may be viewed as non-negotiable, as compromising on them could undermine their very essence. Additionally, certain natural laws, like the laws of physics, also remain unyielding to negotiation or compromise.
FDR was not an active supporter of full civil rights for African Americans. His own political loyalties kept him on the fence. Roosevelt knew that the white southern vote would be his ticket to reelection.
Charles I refused to compromise primarily due to his belief in the divine right of kings, which held that monarchs were appointed by God and therefore not subject to earthly authority. He viewed any concessions as a threat to his royal prerogative and authority. Additionally, his strong Anglican beliefs and loyalty to his vision of a unified Church of England further alienated him from Parliament, making negotiation difficult. Ultimately, this inability to compromise led to significant political conflict and the English Civil War.
To refuse to compromise one's principles means to stand firmly by one's core beliefs and values, even in the face of pressure or temptation to change them. This commitment often involves making difficult choices and prioritizing integrity over convenience or social acceptance. Such individuals are typically seen as steadfast and principled, willing to face challenges rather than betray their convictions.

Yalta Conference didn't unite the Big Three because Stalin's beliefs in communism and Truman and Churchill's beliefs in democracy didn't go hand-in-hand. Democracy and communism are two things you don't mix together. Tensions between the two superpowers, the United States and the Soviet Union, were imminent after World War II which lead to the Cold War.
Franklin D. Roosevelt had two major accomplishments, the great depression in the 1930s and World War II
