  • The closely-watched U.S. presidential election
  • The effect of the Brexit referendum and installment of a new British prime minister
  • The extensive investigation and subsequent impeachment of Brazil’s president
  • The far-reaching impact of the “Panama Papers” scandal
  • Changes in U.S.–Cuba diplomatic relations and the reopening of their embassies
