Improved to Good Article status by Gog the Mild (talk). Self-nominated at 22:00, 28 September 2020 (UTC).
Great hook for an important article. Article is new enough (GA promotion 9/28), long enough, and well written with appropriate citations. No copyvio/paraphrasing violations per earwig. Hook short enough, interesting (I would click on it), accurate, and appropriately sourced. Offline book sourcing accepted in good faith (and also confirmed by Britannica here). QPQ complete.
