         <description><![CDATA[<p>     I chose Albert Einstein to do a research. I respect Albert Einstein because he critically influenced to the modern physics by making various formulas and theories such as the theory of relativity. Also, I am interested about him because I have a little back ground knowledge about why he left Germany and move to America, and I like science. </p><p>     According to Nobel Prize (2024), "Albert Einstein was born at Ulm, in Wurttemberg, Germany, on March 14, 1879. Six weeks later the family moved to Munich, where he later on began his schooling. Later, they moved to Italy and Albert continued his education at Aarau. In 1901, he acquired Swiss citizenship and, as he was unable to find a teaching post, he accepted a position as technical assistant in the Swiss Patent Office. He became a German citizen in 1914 and remained in Berlin until 1933 when he renounced his citizenship for political reasons and emigrated to America to take the position of Professor of Theoretical Physics at Princeton. He became a United States citizen in 1940 and retired from his post in 1945".</p><p>     Because his last destination was United States, I did more research about why did he left Germany and move to United States. According to Onion (2019), "Einstein became the target of hostility in Weimar Germany, where many citizens were suffering plummeting economic fortunes in the aftermath of defeat in the Great War". In December 1932, Einstein made the decision to emigrate to the United States, and he did not visit Germany again (Onion et al, 2019). In the other words, majority of Germans turn away to him due to the desire to defeat in the Great War, so he left Germany.</p><p><br></p><p>Works Cited: </p><p>Albert Einstein – Biographical. <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="http://NobelPrize.org">NobelPrize.org</a>.

An actor,  business man, bodybuilder and former governor of the State of California.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>About &nbsp;father</strong></p><p><strong> </strong>Schwarzenegger's father is a very serious person. If his children make mistakes, his father will beat them up without explanation until they admit their mistakes and promise not to make the same mistakes again. Schwarzenegger liked fitness when he was a teenager, but his father believed that "a group of men hanging out together" was "homosexuality".&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Life story</strong></p><p>He won the title for the first time in 1970, becoming the youngest Mr. Olympia in history. and he had won almost all world-class bodybuilding championships and a total of 13 world championship titles before the age of 20.
