Brother Since I myself am a failure in essay this time so I can only wish you good luck instead of giving an advise.

Your scores in EDS, CA, British History and Intl Law are stunning. I can hardly believe my eyes. I wish k aapki marsheet mashoor hanai k baad apko bhi clarifications na deni parain.

Outlines bananai ya na bananai se koi farq nahi parta..... I also made outline in my previous attempt but scored only 40marks

Quotes relevant honi chahie se mera matlab yeh hia k us author ko quote karna chahie jo kisi specific work.kaam k lyie mashoor hoo

i.e.
For Water Crisis Kofi Anan as we know that he was the active member of UNO who was looking forward world water crisis

Noam Chomsky is famous for criticising hegemonious policies of USA

Robert Frisk when it comes to Afghan war, Palestine and Gaza issue

Staneley Lanepole/Wale poole when it comes to Pak Affairs and Indo Pak History

Karen Armstrong When it comes to Prophet (PBUH) and Islam

And there is a long long list.... or is ka matlab hargiz bhi yeh nahi hai k sirf inhi ko quote karain lekin doosro ko bhi sath sath quote karna hota hai lekin these guys should be given weightage while you are quoting them because all of them had dedicates their life to these specific fields and this is what they are known for.

anyone can elaborate COLD WAR ?

Towards the end of the second World War USSR and USA ceased to be friend due to many reasons; and cold war started decade after 1945 which continued up to 1980s. Both Super power Russia and USA gathered allies to counter each other. USSR (Communist Block) drew into its group many eastern European countries between 1945-1948. Communist Blocked further strengthen when the civil war in china was over. Capitalist block( USA) made japan, Britain and 14 other European countries into its orbit. Remember this war was an economic war in which Russia defeated.

Cold War

The Cold War had its roots in World War II, when the repeated delays in opening a second front in Europe made the Russians suspicious of the Western Allies' motives. Those concerns were heightened when the United States discontinued lend-lease aid to the Soviet Union soon after the war ended. Stalin's commitment at Yalta to allow free elections in Eastern Europe was quickly broken.

Iron Curtain across Europe

To ensure friendly states on its western borders, the USSR supported and helped install Communist-dominated governments in Poland, Bulgaria, and Rumania (Romania) in the spring and summer of 1945. Within a year, as Winston Churchill told an American audience, an "iron curtain" had descended across Europe, separating the ―free‖ democratic nations of the West from the captive Communist nations of the East.

  fight USSR
•  1989 Breakdown of Wall of Berlin
•  Disintegration of USSR into 15 countries (Baltic and CAR‘s)
•  1991 cold war came to an end after dismemberment of USSR.
•  1991 onwards the world became Uni-polar.
•  American President Ronald Reagan (1981-89) was declared Hero of Cold War
