Translate the following into English:
1) Republic of Classical Greece - Древняя Греция (Эллада), общее название территории древне-греческих государств на юге Балканского полуострова, островах Эгейского моря, побережье Фракии, по западной береговой полосе Малой Азии. В результате борьбы демоса с родовой аристократией в 8-6 веках в Греции сформировались полисы (города-государства). В зависимости от результатов борьбы земледельцев и ремесленников с родовой знатью государственная власть в полисе была либо демократической (в Афинах), либо олигархической (в Спарте, на острове Крит). В экономически развитых полисах (Коринф, Афины и другие) широко распространилось рабство; в Спарте, Аргосе и других полисах долго сохранялись пережитки родового строя. 5-4 века - период высшего расцвета полисов. Советский Энциклопедический Словарь/Гл. ред. А. М. Прохоров, 1983, с. 338-339
2) Rome - Рим Древний, первоначально община в Древней Италии, затем рабовладельческий город-государство, подчинивший себе весь Аппенинский полуостров; впоследствии - рабовладельческая держава, включавшая в свои пределы значительную часть Европы, побережье Северной Африки, Египет, Малую Азию, Сирию. По преданию, Рим основан Ромулом около 754/753 года до нашей эры. Древнейший, так называемый царский, период римской истории (8-6 век до нашей эры) характеризуется переходом от первобытно-общинного строя к классовому рабовладельческому обществу. В конце 6 века до нашей эры в Риме была установлена аристократическая республика, история которой в 6-4 веках до нашей эры заполнена борьбой бесправных и малоземельных плебеев с родовой аристократией - патрициями. В 5-2 веках до нашей эры Рим вел непрерывные войны, завершившиеся подчинением Риму всей Италии и покорением Испании, Македонии, Греции, Северной Африки и других территорий. Все эти завоевания дали римскому обществу необходимые предпосылки (рабов и материальные средства) для наиболее полного развития рабовладельческого способа производства в его классической форме. После того как власть в Риме сосредоточилась в руках Цезаря, установившего военную диктатуру, Римская республика фактически пала. Энциклопедический Словарь/Гл. ред. Б. А. Введенский, 1954, с. 106
3) Anti-colonial revolution in North America - война за независимость в Северной Америке 1775-83, освободительная война 13 английских колоний, в ходе которой создано независимое государство - США. Носила характер буржуазной революции. Началась боями у Конкорда и Лексингтона (апрель 1775). В 1776 принята Декларация независимости США. Американская армия (с июня 1775 главком Дж. Вашингтон) одержала решительные победы у Саратоги (октябрь 1777) и Йорктауна (октябрь 1781). По Версальскому мирному договору 1783 Великобритания признала независимость США. Советский Энциклопедический Словарь/Гл. ред. А. М. Прохоров, 1983, с. 238
4) The French revolution - Великая французская революция, буржуазно-демократическая революция во Франции в 1789-94. Началом революции явился штурм Бастилии 14 июля 1789 года. 10 августа 1792 в результате народного восстания, возглавленного Парижской Коммуной, низвергнута монархия. 22 сентября 1792 Конвент установил во Франции республику. В июле 1794 термидорианский переворот низверг революционное правительство. Историческое значение Великой французской революции в том, что она решительнее, чем другие ранние буржуазные революции, покончила с феодально-абсолютистским строем, расчистила почву для развития капитализма. Советский Энциклопедический Словарь/Гл. ред. А. М. Прохоров, 1983, с. 203
5) Industrial revolution - Промышленный переворот, скачок в развитии производительных сил, заключающийся в переходе от мануфактуры к машинному производству. В 60-х годах 18 века - 10-20-х годах 19 века П. п. произошел в Великобритании. Затем до конца 19 века в разное время на путь П. п. вступили США, Франция, Германия, Италия, Япония. В России начало П. п. относится к первой половине 19 века, завершение - к концу 70-х - началу 80-х годов 19 века. В результате П. п. окончательно утвердился капитализм. Советский Энциклопедический Словарь/Гл. ред. А. М. Прохоров, 1983, с. 1065
6) The Third World countries - развивающиеся страны, нередко их называют "третьим миром". Вместе они занимают более половины всей площади земной суши и концентрируют более половины мирового населения, а с Китаем - свыше 70%. Выделяют несколько подгрупп: ключевые страны (Индия, Бразилия, Мексика); новые индустриальные страны (Республика Корея, Тайвань, Гонконг, Сингапур); нефтеэкспортирующие страны (Саудовская Аравия, Кувейт, Катар, Объединенные Арабские Эмираты, Ливия, Бруней); страны, отстающие в своем развитии (десятки стран, в том числе страны Латинской Америки); наименее развитые страны (42 страны, в том числе Бангладеш, Афганистан, Мали, Эфиопия, Гаити).
