What was the fastest firing gun in World War 2?

With the acute material shortages of 1944 it was deemed necessary to further simplify to save resources. This resulted in the MG 45, also called MG42V, which modified the breech mechanism of the MG42 so that it didn't completely lock before firing. This increased the theoretical rate of fire even further, the weapon now only weighed 9 kg and - most importantly -production was simplified and needed only steel of minor quality. First tests were undertaken in June 1944, but development dragged on and eventually only ten were ever built and it was about 1900 rounds per min. as long as the barrel didn't melt first.

What were significant US actions in Europe during the Cold War?

Several significant US actions in early Cold War Europe were:

1) The Truman Doctrine of Containment on the 12th of March 1947. This effectively stated America's position against the Soviet Union, although indirectly. Furthermore, it pledged American support for the free peoples of Europe. It became the basis of US foreign policy during the Cold War and led to the Marshall Plan.

2) General George Marshall proposed the Marshall Plan to the American Congress on the 5th of June 1947, suggesting that economic aid be given to Europe (it was offered to Russia but they rejected it and subsequently prevented any Eastern European nations accepting). The intention was to support the struggling economies of the European nations after WWII, thus preventing the unstable conditions that gave birth to the Nazi regime in the 1930s from happening again. It also had the political motive of expanding US markets and leading to a prosperous Western Europe which would, in turn, be less susceptible to communist ideology. Finally, it was the method with which America attempted to enforce the Truman Doctrine. The first payment was approved by the US Congress in 1948.

What is a bedsit?

Hi
This is more of an English term than an American one. It's a place you can rent to live in, and they are popular in places that are otherwise prohibitively expensive, like London, or off campus housing in a university town. It actually means Bed-Sitting room, which means you sleep in the same room as you live. Then American term is studio apartment.

Why did countries like Hungary and Romania join Nazi Germany as members of the Axis in World War 2?

After the First World War, the Treaty of Versailles - for Hungary it was the Treaty of Trianon - meant that the country lost two thirds of its original territory and naturally felt that it was unfair. It lost citizens whose mother tongue was Hungarian to Czechoslovakia (more than 1 milion people); to Romania (more than 1.6 million people); to Serbo Croatian Kingdom (about half a million people)to Austria (some 25,000 peole). Revisionism and irredentism grew. Hungary tried to find an ally which shared the bad opinion about the Treaty and the new borders. Unfortunately the only country which felt the Threaty of Versailles very humiliating and considered revenge was Germany.
