This accounts for the fact that different things mean differently to different parties. Sufficient consideration may also include abstract exchanges such as 'love and affection'.. "Consideration" in this context means that a promise is given in return for a promise received.

In early 1975 LaVey announced that higher degrees of initiation could be given in return for a financial contribution.

Hastings justified his action on the ground that the Rohillas were a danger to the British as uncovering the flank of Awadh.

The Court of Appeal not only struck out Mr Chandler's claim to recover the pre- payment, but decided that Mr Webster was entitled to the remainder of the balance (£41 15s, ).

The anomalies of the system were always acknowledged, and so it was simply hoped that unregistered land would dwindle away.

On 19 August 2020, US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said that his government intends to utilize the so-called snapback provision in ¶11 of the document, in which any member of the JCPOA can "demand the restoration of all UN sanctions". The motion for the snapback, which is intended in case of significant Iranian non-compliance with the resolution, "starts a 30-day clock during which the UNSC must vote affirmatively to continue the sanctions relief that Iran was given in return for curbs on its nuclear program". This UNSC vote "cannot be blocked by a veto". On 16 September 2020, Elliott Abrams, the US "special envoy for Iran", announced that all UN sanctions would "snap back" at 20:00 EDT on 19 September.

The Cossack Brigade was formed by Nasir al-Din Shah in 1879, using as a model the Caucasian Cossack regiments of the Imperial Russian Army which had impressed him when travelling through southern Russia in 1878. Together with a Swedish trained and officered gendarmerie, the Cossack Brigade came to comprise the most effective military force available to the Iranian crown in the years prior to World War I. In spite of its name the Brigade was not a typical Cossack force as employed in the neighbouring Russian Empire. The Cossack regiments of the Imperial Russian Army were based on a feudal-style system under which military service was given in return for long-term grants of land. By contrast the Persian Cossack Brigade was recruited on a conventional basis, from a mix of volunteers and conscripts.

Referencing Pope Leo XIII's encyclical, Annum sacrum, Pius stated, "For as in olden time when mankind came forth from Noe's ark, God set His "bow in the clouds" (Genesis ix, 13), shining as the sign of a friendly covenant; so in the most turbulent times of a more recent age, ... then the most benign Jesus showed his own most Sacred Heart to the nations lifted up as a standard of peace and charity portending no doubtful victory in the combat."Pope Pius XI, Miserentissimus Redemptor, §2, Libreria Editrice Vaticana In this encyclical Pope Pius XI discussed reparation as follows: :"The creature's love should be given in return for the love of the Creator, another thing follows from this at once, namely that to the same uncreated Love, if so be it has been neglected by forgetfulness or violated by offense, some sort of compensation must be rendered for the injury, and this debt is commonly called by the name of reparation." Having discussed the need for reparation Pius established the Feast of the Sacred Heart of Jesus as a day of reparation.Moell, Carl J., "'America' and the Sacred Heart", America magazine, May 26, 1956.
