I know that present perfect tense can be use if we talking about several different actions which have occurred in the past at different times

Well, I would have actually answered this in good faith seeing how the OP is a native speaker of Russian. However, seeing how they can't even spell their own name, in Russian, I think the problem runs deeper.
@Cerberus Thank you for your answer, but I think I'm going with "are", since it's me who is commenting and I need to convey that it is a "fact" not a seemingly thing
@Cerberus it's the strangest thing, really. Here you have the Internet that actually lets you get ahold of an expert or twenty, that are totally qualified and willing to answer your question — and then you fuck up asking the question.
It's such an incredible opportunity people have worked on for 5 million years to even have, and now you have it, and you don't even fall at the very first hurdle; you erect a hurdle for yourself where there is absolutely none.
You could go to Twitter right now and grab none other than Neil de fucking Grasse Tyson, and ask none other than himself to explain to you in person what the difference between weight and mass is. But then rather than asking him "what is the difference between weight and mass?" you somehow type "y gay cheese pls????"
You know, sometimes people will ask about a sentence they don't understand, and everyone's immediate reaction is "not sure what exactly you don't understand".
But then, sometimes people will ask about a sentence, and my immediate reaction is "not sure why you want to understand it".
In my capacity as someone who does understand the sentence, I can tell you for a fact you don't need to understand it.
There are probably three better sentences in that paragraph alone that warrant your attention.
"The Nazi Party, led by Adolf Hitler (1889-1945), the Soviet Union, led by Joseph Stalin (1878-1953) and the National Fascist Party led by Benito Mussolini (1883-1945) were all dictatorial groups by this definition."
> She went all Nazi on me. (colloquial) Hades is all-powerful. (requires hyphen) The gods are all powerful. (= all of the gods are powerful, = what you want)
"The Nazi Party, led by Adolf Hitler (1889-1945), the Soviet Union, led by Joseph Stalin (1878-1953), and the National Fascist Party, led by Benito Mussolini (1883-1945), were all dictatorial groups by this definition."
@Luyw Dates are often used in the way you did, to mark a person's birth and death; on the other hand, they can also be used to indicate when he did a certain thing. So strictly speaking there is ambiguity in your text; but the end dates are the same anyway(?), and the dates of birth disambiguate.
Even the Falklands occupied Poland. With their left hand, while fighting off the British Empire with their right. That's how easy it is to occupy Poland.
@marcellothearcane Afro Carribean accents are all largely due to West African accents mixed into English. New York City just has a lot of people from the West Indies, so you hear the accent a lot. The Irish bit, who knows. Probably just some similar shifts in vowels combined with cultural overlap.
@Robusto I haven't eaten there since I was a kid ....
He certainly didn't invent that one day a person I don't know would write to me a letter saying "sometimes I really like watching a guy jerk off till he cums".
On a side note, I refuse to give a free click to gizmodo, just to witness first-hand how it takes them seventeen paragraphs and 55 ads to spell out a simple "No".
@TannerSwett I can only think of things along the lines of "the chips are down", or along the lines of "buckle up".
I can think of a whole number of things that fit the bill, but all of them are not in English.
Then again, you didn't really specify it would have to be in English, now did you... hm...
@DavidM on a side side note, "paleo future" is the kind of word game you'd expect a nine-year old to come up with who's only just found out that word games exist.
