This was the first war in which airplanes and zeppelins were used. At the outbreak of the war, each army had several hundred planes. During the war, the planes directed shell fire, photographed enemy bases, shot at troops, dropped leaflets, and battled each other in the air. The Germans used the zeppelin for observation and for bombing raids ( Young World Book 370). The submarine came into use for the first time on a large scale during Worl .....

Economies prior to were based on cottage industries. Workers would buy raw materials from merchants, take it back to their cottages, (this led to the name) and produce the goods at their homes. Examples of the cottage industry were many textile products, and carpentry items. The cottage industry was usually owned and managed by one or more people, who were generally close to the workers. Ther .....

.... fight for wealth and land for the King, are they heroes? Absolutely, they are not heroes. They are the puppets of the King. In the Road Warrior, the result of the battle is the increase of deaths. Max has not put any afford on avoiding the conflict. He is full of anger because he has lost all his family. The evil side of him stimulates his desire to kill and fight. Besides, the Mohawks in the movie are just troublemakers. They are not scared of getting hurt and being killed, so they are brave. From their appearance, they are strong to. So can they be defined as heroes? Of course, they are not heroes. They are happy about makin .....

A battle implies one fight, one clash. But it has taken fight after fight for African Americans to earn their freedom and equal rights. After earning freedom from slavery, Blacks fought for more than one hundred years to be considered equals in society. That struggle reached its climax during the1960s, when the biggest gains in the area of were made. Up to that time blacks and whites remained separate and blacks were still treated as inferiors.

.... people, specifically teenagers, was and is seen as rebelling against parental figures and mainstream society (rap is becoming more mainstream so maybe this aspect doesn’t hold true so much anymore). While being completely rebellious through buying and listening to rap, many probably did not realize that much of the music is anti-white. A friend of mine recently told me during a conversation we had about Public Enemy that, “yeah, I was a huge PE fan, I listened to them all the time; but I cut down when I realized that they used extremely anti-white lyrics!” This early protest rap did not contain much support of white Amer .....

.... the United States. They view the air strikes over Kosovo as a horrific act, which has done little if anything to help the Albanian situation. The media in this area has managed to emphasize the killing of innocent civilians by NATO forces, while de-emphasizing the massive campaign of ethnic cleansing. Their leader Milosevic is seen as a great leader, while in America he is viewed as a Hitler-like fascist. The main question we must ask ourselves is why. Why has NATO/America decided to join this fight? There have been numerous areas around the world that have killed and massacred innocent individuals. Perhaps the United States .....

.... colonists had the right, granted to them by The Virginia Company, to elect a colonial legislature, called the House of Burgesses. Since Virginia was the first royal colony, it was only fitting that they should lead the way with the first representative government in the New World. Other lawmaking bodies, not that dissimilar to the House of Burgesses, would soon pop up in other colonies. The Pilgrims also pioneered the way to democracy. If the Pilgrims had settled in Virginia, where they had originally planned, they would have been subject to the authority of the Virginia Company. In their own colony of Plymouth, they w .....
