Bezerenbam (or Bazaram-ban) and Mişelav were the Wallachian (Romanian) leaders (the former a "ban" according to Xenopol, Hasdeu and Constantin C. Giurescu) mentioned in 1241, in the Persian chronicle Jāmiʿ al-Tawārīkh written by Rashid-al-Din Hamadani (Fazel-Ullah-Raschid). They appear in the context of the Mongol invasion of Europe. The former's army was located in Ilaut country, as the chronicle says: In the middle of the spring (1240), the princes crossed the (...) mountains to enter in the country of Bulars and Bashguirds. Orda, who marched on the right, passing through Ilaut country, met (Bezerenbam?) with an army; the latter has been defeated. Cardan and Buri went against the Sassans, and defeated them after three battles. Budjek crossed the mountains of that country in order to enter in Cara-Ulag (probably Transylvania and Wallachia), defeated the Ulags (Vlachs), crossed the (...) mountains, and entered in the country of (Mişelav?), where he beat the awaiting enemy.. In his work, History of the Romanians, Alexandru D. Xenopol considers that it is possible for Bezerenbam, or Basarab the ban, to be the same person as Litovoi, mentioned in a document from 1247 as ruler of the same land. He considers Bazaram-bam is an ancestor of the Romanian dynasty of Basarab Bogdan Petriceicu Hasdeu also thinks that the leader was "Basarab the ban", a local leader, while Constantin C. Giurescu considers that this name was a distorted form of the title of Ban of Severin (Terra Zeurino). Neagu Djuvara has considered the possibility that Mişelav was Seneslau, another Wallachian leader contemporary with and neighbouring Litovoi.

The ongoing pandemic of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), a new infectious disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), spread to the United States in January 2020. Cases have occurred in all fifty U.S. states, the District of Columbia, and all inhabited U.S. territories except American Samoa. As of April 11, 2020, the U.S. has the most confirmed active cases and deaths in the world, and all fifty states have received disaster declarations from the federal government. The state of New York has been the most impacted out of all U.S. states, with over 8,500 deaths. The first known case of COVID-19 in the U.S. was confirmed on January 20, 2020, in a 35-year-old who had returned from Wuhan, China five days earlier. On January 29, the White House Coronavirus Task Force was established. Two days later, the Trump administration declared a public health emergency and announced restrictions on travelers arriving from China. On February 26, a person with "no known exposure to the virus through travel or close contact with a known infected individual" was confirmed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in northern California. The federal government's early response to the pandemic was slow, especially in regards to testing. A manufacturing defect rendered a supply of CDC-developed test kits unusable, and regulatory rules prevented academic laboratories and hospitals from using their own tests. President Donald Trump initially dismissed the threat posed by COVID-19, repeatedly making optimistic statements and claiming the outbreak was under control. By the start of March, the government began to heighten its response; the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) began allowing public health agencies, hospitals, and private companies to develop and administer tests, and loosened its requirements to allow anyone with a doctor's order to be tested. As of March 25, at least 418,000 tests had been conducted, and by April 2 the number had reached 1,280,000. Although it has surpassed South Korea in the total number of tests performed, it has still performed fewer tests per capita than South Korea. The CDC warned that widespread transmission of the disease may force large numbers of people to seek healthcare, which may overload healthcare systems and lead to otherwise preventable deaths. Since March 19, 2020, the U.S. Department of State has advised U.S. citizens to avoid all international travel. On March 16, the White House advised against any gatherings of more than 10 people. In mid-March 2020, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) told the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) to plan to construct new facilities, including leased hotels and other buildings, and to convert them for use as hospitals and intensive care units. State and local responses to the outbreak have included prohibitions and cancellation of large-scale gatherings (including cultural events, exhibitions, and sporting events), restrictions on commerce and movement, and the closure of schools and other educational institutions. Disproportionate numbers of cases have been observed among African American populations, and there have been reported incidents of xenophobia and racism against Chinese Americans and other Asian Americans.

Go Go Gophers is an animated series set in the Old West that appears as a 6-7 minute long segment within 48 episodes of the Underdog TV series. It was then spun off as a separate series on CBS in 1968 and 1969. However, the episodes were just repeats of the 48 segments that aired on the Underdog series. The show also shared with Space Kidettes on Saturday morning television in 1967. The show was produced by Total Television. The show was unusual for Old West-themed series, in that the Native American characters always beat the cowboys.

Monmouth ( MON-məth, MUN-; Welsh: Trefynwy meaning "town on the Monnow") is the historic county town of Monmouthshire in Wales and also a community. Situated where the River Monnow joins the River Wye, 2 miles (3.2 km) of the border with England. The town is 30 miles (48 km) northeast of Cardiff, and 113 miles (182 km) west of London. It is within the Monmouthshire local authority, and the parliamentary constituency of Monmouth. Monmouth's population in the 2011 census was 10,508, rising from 8,877 in 2001. The town was the site of a small Roman fort, Blestium, and became established after the Normans built a castle here after 1067. Its medieval stone gated bridge is the only one of its type remaining in Britain. The castle later came into the possession of the House of Lancaster, and was the birthplace of King Henry V in 1387. In 1536, it became the county town of Monmouthshire. A market town and a focus of educational and cultural activities for the surrounding rural area, Monmouth has become a tourism centre at the heart of the Wye Valley.

Slavery in the United States was the legal institution of human chattel enslavement, primarily of Africans and African Americans, that existed in the United States of America from the beginning of the nation in 1776 until passage of the Thirteenth Amendment in 1865. Slavery had been practiced in British America from early colonial days, and was legal in all thirteen colonies at the time of the Declaration of Independence in 1776. Under the law, an enslaved person was treated as property and could be bought, sold, or given away. Slavery lasted in about half of U.S. states until 1865. As an economic system, slavery was largely replaced by sharecropping and convict leasing. By the time of the American Revolution (1775–1783), the status of enslaved people had been institutionalized as a racial caste associated with African ancestry. The role of slavery under the U.S. Constitution (1789) was the most contentious issue during its drafting. Although the creators of the Constitution never used the word "slavery", the final document, through the three-fifths clause, gave slave-owners disproportionate political power. During and immediately following the War, abolitionist laws were passed in most Northern states and a movement developed to abolish slavery. All Northern states had abolished slavery in some way by 1805; sometimes, abolition was a gradual process, and hundreds of people were still enslaved in the Northern states as late as the 1840 Census. Some slaveowners—primarily in the Upper South—freed the people they had enslaved, and philanthropists and charitable groups bought and freed other enslaved people. The Atlantic slave trade was outlawed by individual states beginning during the American Revolution. The import-trade was banned by Congress in 1808, although smuggling was common thereafter. The rapid expansion of the cotton industry in the Deep South after the invention of the cotton gin greatly increased demand for the labor of enslaved people, and the Southern states continued as slave societies. Those states attempted to extend slavery into the new western territories to keep their share of political power in the nation. The United States became ever more polarized over the issue of slavery, split into slave and free states. Driven by labor demands from new cotton plantations in the Deep South, the northern slave states sold over a million enslaved people who were taken to the Deep South in a forced migration. The total population of enslaved people in the South eventually reached four million. As the United States expanded, the Southern states wanted newly-formed states to allow slavery; this would allow pro-slavery forces to maintain their power in the U.S. Senate. The new territories acquired via the Louisiana purchase and the Mexican cession were the subject of major political crises and compromises. By 1850, the newly-rich, cotton-growing South was threatening to secede from the Union, and tensions continued to rise. Slavery was defended in the South as a "positive good", and large Protestant denominations split over the slavery issue into regional organizations of the North and South. When Abraham Lincoln won the 1860 election on a platform of halting the expansion of slavery, seven states broke away to form the Confederacy. Shortly afterward, the Civil War began when Confederate forces attacked the US Army's Fort Sumter. Four additional slave states then seceded after Lincoln requested arms from them to make a retaliatory strike. Due to Union measures such as the Confiscation Acts and the Emancipation Proclamation in 1863, the war effectively ended slavery even before the institution was banned by constitutional amendment. Following the Union victory in the Civil War, slavery was made illegal in the United States upon the ratification of the Thirteenth Amendment in December 1865. Slavery briefly returned to US territory when the US federal government allowed the Sultanate of Sulu in the Philippines (a US possession during the first half of the twentieth century) to continue to practice slavery.

Macrophomic acid is a fungal metabolite isolated from the fungus . The enzyme converts 5-acetyl-4-methoxy-6-methyl-2-pyrone to 4-acetyl-3-methoxy-5-methyl-benzoic acid (macrophomic acid) through an unusual intermolecular Diels-Alder reaction (Scheme 1). The pathway to formation of macrophomic acid suggests that the enzyme is a natural Diels-Alderase. Formation of this type of aromatic ring compound normally proceeds via the shikimate and polyketide pathways; however, the production of macrophomic acid by macrophomate synthase proceeds totally differently. Learning about the production of macrophomic acid by a possible natural Diels-Alderase enzyme is important in understanding enzyme catalytic mechanisms. This knowledge can then be applied to organic synthesis.

Homestar Runner is a Flash-animated surreal comedy web series created by Mike and Matt Chapman, also known as The Brothers Chaps. It mixes surreal humor, self-parody, and references to 1970s, 1980s, 1990s, and early 2000s pop culture, in particular video games, classic television, and popular music. While the site originally centered on the title character, Homestar Runner, the Strong Bad Email cartoon skits quickly became the site's most popular and prominent feature, with Strong Bad becoming a breakout character. Since 2000, the site has grown to encompass a variety of cartoons and web games featuring Homestar, Strong Bad, and numerous other characters. At the peak of its popularity, the site was one of the most-visited sites with collections of Flash cartoons on the web, spreading via word of mouth. The site sustains itself through merchandise sales and has never featured advertisements. The Brothers Chaps have turned down offers to make a television series. After a four-year hiatus beginning in 2010, Homestar Runner returned with a new Holiday Toon on April 1, 2014, for April Fools' Day. Afterwards, co-creator Matt Chapman announced plans to give the site semi-regular updates starting in fall 2014, due to the positive reception given to the April Fools' Day cartoon. More cartoons have since been released on the website on an occasional basis, usually to celebrate holidays.

Olson was the longtime announcer for the original To Tell the Truth and What's My Line?, and spent over a decade as the announcer for both Match Game and The Price Is Right, working on the latter series at the time of his death.

Cambyses II (Old Persian: 𐎣𐎲𐎢𐎪𐎡𐎹 Kabūjiya) was the second King of Kings of the Achaemenid Empire from 530 to 522 BC. He was the son and successor of Cyrus the Great (r. 550 – 530 BC) and his mother was Cassandane. Before his accession, Cambyses had briefly served as the governor of northern Babylonia under his father from April 539 BC to December 538 BC. Afterwards, he continued to roam in the Babylonian cities of Babylon and Sippar, before being appointed by his father as co-ruler in 530 BC, who set off to mount an expedition against the Massagetae of Central Asia, where he met his end. Cambyses thus became the sole ruler of the vast Achaemenid Empire, facing no noticeable opposition. His relatively brief reign was marked by his conquests in Africa, notably Egypt, which he conquered after his victory over the Egyptian pharaoh Psamtik III (r. 526–525 BC) at the battle of Pelusium in 525 BC. After having established himself in Egypt, he expanded his holdings in Africa even further, such as his conquest of Cyrenaica. In the spring of 522 BC, Cambyses hurriedly left Egypt to deal with a rebellion in Persia. While en route in Syria (Eber-Nari), he received a wound to the thigh, which was soon affected by gangrene. Cambyses died three weeks later at a location called Agbatana, which is most likely the modern city of Hama. He died childless, and was thus succeeded by his younger brother Bardiya, who ruled for a short period before being overthrown by Darius the Great (r. 522–486 BC), who went on to increase the power of the Achaemenids even further.

Effective altruism is a philosophy and social movement that advocates using evidence and reasoning to determine the most effective ways to benefit others. Altruism refers to improving the lives of others—as opposed to egoism, which emphasizes only self-interest. Effectiveness refers to doing the most good with whatever resources are available—as opposed to only doing some amount of good—as well as determining what is the most good by using evidence and reasoning—as opposed to only doing what feels good or appears intuitively appealing.

Many people who espouse effective altruism call themselves effective altruists. While many effective altruists have focused on the nonprofit sector, the philosophy of effective altruism applies more broadly to prioritizing the scientific projects, companies, and policy initiatives which can be estimated to save lives, help people, or otherwise have the biggest benefit.

Masculinity (also called manhood or manliness) is a set of attributes, behaviors, and roles associated with boys and men. Although masculinity is socially constructed, some research indicates that some behaviors considered masculine are biologically influenced. To what extent masculinity is biologically or socially influenced is subject to debate. It is distinct from the definition of the biological male sex, as both males and females can exhibit masculine traits. Standards of manliness or masculinity vary across different cultures and historical periods. Traits traditionally viewed as masculine in Western society include strength, courage, independence, leadership, and assertiveness. Machismo is a form of masculinity that emphasizes power and is often associated with a disregard for consequences and responsibility. Virility (from the Latin vir, "man") is similar to masculinity, but especially emphasizes strength, energy, and sex drive.

In 380, Bhadravarman, the son or grandson of Fan Fo, took the throne with the regal name Dharmamahārāja Śrī Bhadravarman I, "Great King of the Law Bhadravarman". He is the first Champa king to have varman suffixed to his name. The use of the honorific title varman, very common amongst the Pallava dynasty kings, was borrowed by the kings of Cambodia. Also the same year, the King moved the capital to Indrapura in Quảng Nam Province. He built temples and palaces, all facing north, at Mỹ Sơn and Trà Kiệu. Significantly, Bhadravarman was a renowned scholar, well-versed in all four Vedas and the author of several inscriptions in Sanskrit. He invited learned Brahmins from India to settle in his kingdom. In 399, Bhadravarman went on a military campaign up north and succeeded in capturing the Vietnamese provinces of Rinan and Jiuzhen (Vietnamese: Cửu Chân). He continued on his temple-building campaign as well, building Cham towers along the coast up north. From 405 to 413, he continuously battled the Chinese governor . However, at their last confrontation, Bhadravarman disappeared without a trace after he was defeated by the governor. Two of his sons, Chen Chen and Na Neng were killed in 413, while another son, Ti Kai, fled with his mother. Bhadravarman's son, Ti Chen, Gangaraja, abdicated the throne and left for India. The kingdom then transitioned into civil war.

Salvador Domingo Felipe Jacinto Dalí i Domènech, Marquis of Dalí de Púbol (, Catalan: [səlβəˈðo ðəˈli], Spanish: [salβaˈðoɾ ðaˈli]; 11 May 1904 – 23 January 1989) was a Spanish surrealist artist renowned for his technical skill, precise draftsmanship and the striking and bizarre images in his work. Born in Figueres, Catalonia, Dalí received his formal education in fine arts at Madrid. Influenced by Impressionism and the Renaissance masters from a young age, he became increasingly attracted to Cubism and avant-garde movements. He moved closer to Surrealism in the late 1920s and joined the Surrealist group in 1929, soon becoming one of its leading exponents. His best-known work, The Persistence of Memory, was completed in August 1931, and is one of the most famous Surrealist paintings. Dalí lived in France throughout the Spanish Civil War (1936 to 1939) before leaving for the United States in 1940 where he achieved commercial success. He returned to Catalonia in 1948 where he announced his return to the Catholic faith and developed his "nuclear mysticism" style, based on his interest in classicism, mysticism and recent scientific developments. Dalí's artistic repertoire included painting, graphic arts, film, sculpture, design and photography, at times in collaboration with other artists. He also wrote fiction, poetry, autobiography, essays and criticism. Major themes in his work include dreams, the subconscious, sexuality, religion, science and his closest personal relationships. To the dismay of those who held his work in high regard, and to the irritation of his critics, his eccentric and ostentatious public behavior sometimes drew more attention than his artwork. His public support for the Francoist regime, his commercial activities and the quality and authenticity of some of his late works have also been controversial. His life and work were an important influence on other Surrealists, pop art and contemporary artists such as Jeff Koons and Damien Hurst. There are two major museums devoted to his work: The Dalí Theatre and Museum in Figures, Spain and the Salvador Dalí Museum in Florida.

The Lorenz system is a system of ordinary differential equations first studied by Edward Lorenz. It is notable for having chaotic solutions for certain parameter values and initial conditions. In particular, the Lorenz attractor is a set of chaotic solutions of the Lorenz system. In popular media the 'butterfly effect' stems from the real-world implications of the Lorenz attractor, i.e. that in any physical system, in the absence of perfect knowledge of the initial conditions (even the minuscule disturbance of the air due to a butterfly flapping its wings), our ability to predict its future course will always fail. This underscores that physical systems can be completely deterministic and yet still be inherently unpredictable even in the absence of quantum effects. The shape of the Lorenz attractor itself, when plotted graphically, may also be seen to resemble a butterfly.

The Battle of Monmouth was fought near Monmouth Court House (modern-day Freehold Borough, New Jersey) on June 28, 1778, during the American Revolutionary War. It pitted the Continental Army, commanded by General George Washington, against the British Army in North America, commanded by General Sir Henry Clinton. It was the last battle of the Philadelphia campaign, begun the previous year, during which the British had inflicted two major defeats on Washington and occupied Philadelphia. Washington had spent the winter at Valley Forge rebuilding his army and defending his position against political enemies who favored his replacement as commander-in-chief. In February 1778, the Franco-American alliance tilted the strategic balance in favor of the Americans, forcing the British to abandon hope

Masculinity (also called manhood or manliness) is a set of attributes, behaviors, and roles associated with boys and men. Although masculinity is socially constructed, some research indicates that some behaviors considered masculine are biologically influenced. To what extent masculinity is biologically or socially influenced is subject to debate. It is distinct from the definition of the biological male sex, as both males and females can exhibit masculine traits.

The Ornate Butterflyfish, Chaetodon ornatissimus, is a species of butterflyfish in the family Chaetodontidae. C. ornatissimus is also known as Clown Butterflyfish, Clown Butterfly, Coralfishes, Ornate Butterfly, Ornate Coralfish and Ornatissimus Butterfly. Ornate butterflyfish have white bodies with orange to orange-brown oblique bands . They also have two yellow-edged black bars on their head; one runs across the eyes and the other is on the snout . The Ornate Butterflyfish is a close relative of the Mailed Butterflyfish (C. reticulatus) and the Scrawled Butterflyfish (C. meyeri) . Together they make up the subgenus called “Citharoedus”, but as this name had already been used for the mollusk genus when it was given to the fish, it is not valid. They are probably quite close to the subgenus Corallochaetodon, which contains the Melon Butterflyfish (C. trifasciatus). Like these, they might be separated into Megaprotodon if the genus Chaetodon is split up .

"Bitches Ain't Shit" is an American rap song, never issued as a single, yet a favorite among rap fans, a huge underground hit, that closes Dr. Dre's debut solo album, The Chronic, released, as Death Row Records' first album, in December 1992. The next year, in discussing some deeds, debate, and protest that the song had sparked, then rap journalist Dream Hampton incidentally called it, in the rap genre, "the best song on the best album of a pretty slow year." Billboard magazine notes, however, "the misogyny is ugly and thick, even for a rap record," as "women are treated like disposable sperm receptacles." The song evokes a group of male acquaintances who each imparts to the presumably male listener a saga or some wisdom showing or advising that "bitches," although sources of sexual activity and sometimes of money, are deceitful and traitorous, just "hos and tricks." Beyond his own verse, guest rapper Snoop Dogg performs the chorus or hook—unfavorably stereotyping and sexually objectifying women—which, in his own verse, fellow guest rapper Daz calls "the anthem." Tricia Rose, the sociologist then soon to pioneer hip hop's academic study, later warns that Snoop, here, "captures pimps' fundamental attitude." Besides Snoop and Daz, the guest vocalists are rapper Kurupt and R&B singer Jewell—the only female—yet the most prominent artist, Dre included, is Snoop. The Chronic helping to debut him, then age 21, to the American eye, this song, soon "notorious," helped establish Snoop's persona. With this, Dre shaped a new rap subgenre, gangsta funk, G-funk, while reinventing the rap gangsta, no longer clashing with police and society, but now threatening violence only to guard his own lifestyle of leisure and indulgence. The song's first verse, the only that Dre himself performs, skips over women to call "bitch" two men specifically—his former N.W.A groupmate Eazy-E, who led the group and whom Dre disparages throughout the verse, as well as N.W.A's manager Jerry Heller—whereas Snoop's verse depicts a specific, if apparently fictitious, woman. But the other three verses, even Jewell's, alike the hook, all target women generically. The production borrows from funk music's subgenre P-funk, including a highpitched whine, eerie yet enchanting, nicknamed the "funky worm," The Chronic's signature sound. Also engineered masterfully, "Dre's sonics," recalls Jimmy Iovine of the album's distributor Interscope Records, "just sounded better than anything else on my speakers." The Chronic's unprecedented rap success—mainly aloft its singles, milder, most popularly "Nuthin but a 'G' Thang"—newly put gangsta rap on pop radio. Yet originally, until the album's 2001 reissue, this song was a hidden track, absent from the album's revealed track list. Hitting especially hard, though, it helped drive album sales. Despite its lyrics offending many, even females offered standout praise otherwise, whether in critical appraisal of its musical artistry, or in everyday testimony of its emotional force as "the jam," compelling in "the beat" or "Snoop's intoxicating flow." In 1993, onetime civil rights activist C. Delores Tucker reentered the public eye, campaigned against gangsta rap, and, targeting The Chronic and "Bitches Ain't Shit," demanded Congressional hearings. In 1994, before Congress, Tucker called gangsta rap, especially Snoop's, "pornographic smut." Yet its foothold proved secure. Dre's reinvention of gangsta rap, Snoop's brand of it, and the "Bitches Ain't Shit" model reshaped music, particularly rap and R&B, and pop music's culture. Over the years since 1993, social critics have recurrently exemplified this song to connect gangsta rap's popularization to adverse cultural effects. Reportedly, Sarah Jones's feminist poem "Your Revolution," opposing hip hop's recent shift in imagery about women, was sparked when, singing along at a party, she suddenly recognized her disagreement that "bitches ain't shit but hos and tricks." Still, a woman may in fact momentarily identify even with the male vocalists and, singing along, feel herself aggrieved by "bitches." And by now, numerous songs have borrowed from this one, usually its hook, sometimes switched to start, "Niggas ain't shit," disparaging men generically. Further, in 2005, rock artist Ben Folds released a trimmed cover version—only Dre's and Snoop's lyrics, including the vulgar hook—a rendition humorously sentimental, "a gorgeous piano ballad." Soon a fixture of the singer's live sets, it reached #71 on the main pop chart, the Billboard Hot 100.

Vanilla is a flavoring derived from orchids of the genus Vanilla, primarily obtained from pods of the Mexican species, flat-leaved vanilla (V. planifolia). The word vanilla, derived from vainilla, the diminutive of the Spanish word vaina (vaina itself meaning a sheath or a pod), is translated simply as "little pod". Pre-Columbian Mesoamerican people cultivated the vine of the vanilla orchid, called tlīlxochitl by the Aztecs. Pollination is required to make the plants produce the fruit from which the vanilla flavoring is obtained. In 1837, Belgian botanist Charles François Antoine Morren discovered this fact and pioneered a method of artificially pollinating the plant. The method proved financially unworkable and was not deployed commercially. In 1841, Edmond Albius, a slave who lived on the French island of Réunion in the Indian Ocean, discovered at the age of 12 that the plant could be hand-pollinated. Hand-pollination allowed global cultivation of the plant. Three major species of vanilla currently are grown globally, all of which derive from a species originally found in Mesoamerica, including parts of modern-day Mexico. They are V. planifolia (syn. V. fragrans), grown on Madagascar, Réunion, and other tropical areas along the Indian Ocean; V. tahitensis, grown in the South Pacific; and V. pompona, found in the West Indies, Central America, and South America. The majority of the world's vanilla is the V. planifolia species, more commonly known as Bourbon vanilla (after the former name of Réunion, Île Bourbon) or Madagascar vanilla, which is produced in Madagascar and neighboring islands in the southwestern Indian Ocean, and in Indonesia. Madagascar’s and Indonesia’s cultivations produce two-thirds of the world's supply of vanilla. Vanilla is the second-most expensive spice after saffron because growing the vanilla seed pods is labor-intensive. Nevertheless, vanilla is widely used in both commercial and domestic baking, perfume manufacture, and aromatherapy.

The Battle of Berlin, designated the Berlin Strategic Offensive Operation by the Soviet Union, and also known as the Fall of Berlin, was one of the last major offensives of the European theatre of World War II. Following the Vistula–Oder Offensive of January–February 1945, the Red Army had temporarily halted on a line 60 km (37 mi) east of Berlin. On 9 March, Germany established its defence plan for the city with Operation Clausewitz. The first defensive preparations at the outskirts of Berlin were made on 20 March, under the newly appointed commander of Army Group Vistula, General Gotthard Heinrici. When the Soviet offensive resumed on 16 April, two Soviet fronts (army groups) attacked Berlin from the east and south, while a third overran German forces positioned north of Berlin. Before the main battle in Berlin commenced, the Red Army encircled the city after successful battles of the Seelow Heights and Halbe. On 20 April 1945, Hitler's birthday, the 1st Belorussian Front led by Marshal Georgy Zhukov, advancing from the east and north, started shelling Berlin's city centre, while Marshal Ivan Konev's 1st Ukrainian Front broke through Army Group Centre and advanced towards the southern suburbs of Berlin. On 23 April General Helmuth Weidling assumed command of the forces within Berlin. The garrison consisted of several depleted and disorganised Wehrmacht and Waffen-SS divisions, along with poorly trained Volkssturm and Hitler Youth members. Over the course of the next week, the Red Army gradually took the entire city. On 30 April, Hitler committed suicide (with several of his officials also committing suicide shortly afterwards). The city's garrison surrendered on 2 May but fighting continued to the north-west, west, and south-west of the city until the end of the war in Europe on 8 May (9 May in the Soviet Union) as some German units fought westward so that they could surrender to the Western Allies rather than to the Soviets.
