.... women had in their tribes was that they had ownership of their land, houses and their children. As time went by the Americans, French, and the Spanish took the Indian women to be their wives. As far as sex between them went, the English were used to paying for sex and the Indian women were used to trading for it so it worked out pretty well for the two parties. At one point in the 1500’s a man named Cartagena captured three-hundred Indians, and two-hundred African Americans and took them to Florida, they figured that this was an attempt to allow the Spanish and the two groups he had captured to become allies. As the first Ame .....

.... ¼ miles and called the dolichos, at the next games four years later. Wrestling and the famous Pentathlon were introduced in 708 BC. The Pentathlon consisted of five events; the long jump, javelin throw, discus throw, foot race, and wrestling. The Pentathlons, especially the successful ones, were often treated and even worshipped like gods. Because of their exquisite physiques, they were used as the models for statues of the Greek Gods. The superior athletic ability of these athletes affects the games even today. The twisting and throwing method of the discus throw, which originated in Ancient Greece, is still used to .....

.... expressed such ideas. Every aspect of social life if not controlled by the king was determined by the Bible but by comparison to the ideas of government and values are basically the same. In it states that "all men are created equal," an idea which leads to the concept that all citizens should have the same rights, responsibilities, and influence in the governing of their country. In writing Thomas Jefferson was trying to break his ties with the harsh and non-democratic rule of the British and begin a new, equal society and government for America. The Declaration's statement of equality and unalienable rights is very clos .....

.... to set themselves up as their guardians." It is this immaturity and susceptibility that he seeks to pull his people from. It is easy for them to be immature, keeping a mind set of, "I need not think so long as I can pay". Pretty harsh words for his time when the threat of religious persecution was still an existent social norm. He feels man to be smarter than that. "For they would certainly learn to walk eventually after a few falls." But, man cannot do this "because he was never allowed to make the attempt." Let man learn, Kant replies. Let him be free to speak. Let him be free to think on his own. "The public use of man's .....

.... any country what is useful or harmful to society…Virtue is the habit of doing those things which please men, and vice the habit of doing those things which displease men." Consequentially, virtue and vice were not set in stone decrees, but rather arbitrary notions assigned to the whims of society. This idea left no universal law of good and evil. The right of the individual to pursue pleasure and his notions of right and wrong were secondary to his obligation to society. Voltaire explains, "To be good only for oneself is to be good for nothing." Rousseau also argued that the ambition of the individual's particular desire .....

.... political issues. What business does this organization have in entering a civil war in an independent country? NATO violated the UN Charter of prohibition against the use of force against a member state of the UN. Taking a much-criticized tactic of bombing selective targets in Kosovo, the strategy for NATO appeared to be "bomb and hope." Hoping for Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic to back down and issue orders for a retreat of his troops, NATO continued the destruction of strategic targets, as Russia called for a suspension, if not a halt to the bombing. But it wasn't the bombing of military installations that got NATO in dee .....

.... sound, (and it is) this is my argument. Yes Francis Ferdinand was assassinated and sparked the beginning of the war, but that was not the main cause. It may have been the immediate spark that triggered the starting of the war but it was not the main cause. The four major roles that played in the cause of World War I were Nationalism, Militarism, Imperialism, and the Alliance System. Nationalism: a philosophy that is purely focused on patriotism, loyalty to one’s nation and seeing its nation as the superior nation. Such philosophy remained popular around this time. In fact, it’s popularity started in late 1800’s. Most .....

.... of bronze. It was actually a record of their service throughout the years and a copy was kept in soldier’s files in Rome. (the book) Soldiers were forced to live like turtles, carrying their “homes” (tents and such) along with them in battle. Their equipment was also a hassle, but protected them well in battle. It consisted of mainly helmets and shields. They also carried personal equipment such as shoes, belts, over garments, etc. A soldier had to carry his weapons and artillery with him as well. He had spears, pilums, and pikes to be heaved at enemies. Pilums are spear like weapons that would be thrown at enemie .....

.... for eligibility for naturalization from five years to fourteen years. It also gave the President the power to expel any alien from the country. The Sedition Act was even harsher; it gave the government the right to arrest anyone accused of seditious activities. The Sedition Act thus cracked down on many Jeffersonian newspapers which criticized the government. Of course, Jefferson criticized these Acts; he even called them “worthy of the 8th and 9th century” (2 / p.174). With these laws the Federalists were thought to be stifling the power of the Jeffersonians. Through the Alien and Sedition Acts, those in support of a .....

.... different. They realized that the country they were fighting, and dying for was not giving them any rights at all. They were fighting for their country yet they did not receive the same treatment as all the other people did. “The race riots broke out in 29 American cities as African - American soldiers returning from Europe and demanding greater civil rights were opposed by mobs of whites.” (Jackson 25) The rest of the United States had people left behind who did not change and refused to give them their rights. Thus the race riots began. This scared many white Americans and made them more suspicious of the African .....
