Harappa
.... and dressing rooms.
Transportation was ox, camels and elephants to travel on the land. They also had carts with wooden wheels. There were also sailing ships with masts that were supposedly used for sailing around the Arabian Sea.
It is true that in the Harappan Civilization they did not write any cave carvings or a written language, except a few sentences, which we don’t understand. Something incredible that happened was around 1500B.C. These people just all disappeared. Nobody kno .....

A Seize Of Power
.... strong anti-Semitic views, which seemed to be a logical answer for Hitler and his problems. It was around this time that Hitler was drafted by the army. Instead of going to fight for his country, he chose to flee to Germany. Which is a bewildering thought seeing as how he voluntarily joined the German army when he got there.
After the war, Hitler joined up with a right wing campaign whose job was to spy on other government groups. Upon spying on one of the parties, the N.S.D.A.P. or Nazi party, .....

(see also Index: ahimsa, or ahimsa)
Youth.

National Constituent Assembly
.... of need.
The National Constituent Assembly originated from the National Assembly, and its purpose was to write a constitution that would create a new France, one that was based on equality, liberty and fraternity - a nation governed by the people, and for the people - where men are born and remain equal in rights. It was essentially dominated by members of the Bourgeoisie, as well as some Nobles and Clergymen, but it did not effectively represent the whole of France. The National Constitue .....

The Roles African American In
.... had to be got around (Fincher).
President Lincoln was being bombarded with pressure to let free African Americans fight in the war. At the same time, pressure to abolish slavery was put on the President. Finally, in the summer of 1862, with the realization that the war would not be won without the end of slavery, Lincoln drew up the Emancipation Proclamation (Fincher). This document freed slaves in all areas who rebelled against the Union. This began a rippling effect to many other aspect .....

Constantinopolis

Building with stones or bricks is called masonry. The elements cohere through sheer gravity or the use of mortar, first composed of lime and sand. The Romans found a natural cement that, combined with inert substances, produced concrete. They usually faced this with materials that would give a better finish. In the early 19th century a truly waterproof cement wa .....

Alexander The Great
.... and the victory opened all of Asia Minor to conquest by the Greeks.
In 331 B.C.E. Alexander marched into Mesopotamia to meet an army Darius III,
Persia’s king, had assembled. Once again Alexander and his army broke the Persian line
and Darius was forced to flee. Eventually in 330 B.C.E., in a series of brilliant battles,
Alexander destroyed the power of Darius III and took his lands and titles for himself. He
might have stopped then, rich in glory and plunder. But his thirst .....

Roman History
.... Most
tombstones had a chute where food could be dropped
into, this was thought to nourish the soul. Some
Mausoleums had kitchen facilities and eating areas for
these occasions. Most Romans belonged to a funeral
club. These were clubs that a Roman would join and pay
into over there life to pay for there funeral. The only
class that had trouble paying into it were the unskilled
plebs, they were usually thrown into a pit just outside the
city walls.
Work
Most Romans worked. Most of the rich .....

Adilf Hitler
.... By 1945 the Holocaust of the death camps had consumed more than 6 million Jews. This is an example of Hitler's greed. He felt that everyone had to be like him for he was, "the perfect man." Everyone that was different than Hitler threatened his rein of power and authority, so he felt getting rid of everyone else would help keep him the Führer. He knew that people of the Nazi party worshipped him for he had great ideas that he put in well written speeches, for he was self centered. Jews feel that someon .....

Taking The Hard Road
.... of this, the women often have more differences then commonalities with each other (8). Yet, because Maynes is interested in the female perspective she gives the female writers equal footing in her studies.
Autobiographies are not taken as historical fact but instead used as a way to study and people and their times. What they saw and how they understood it cannot be found in facts and graphs but from the accounts of their experiences in the world being studied. Maynes study is a wonderfully persona .....

Harlem Renaissance 2
.... still considered you as
"niggers". A race that is inferior and has no way into revolting against
the domination of whites. There were a lot of regulations and restrictions
that blacks faced during the time of slavery. Being considered a property is
one of the hardship that they went through. They were basically treated like
animals with no saying. They were sold here and there. There were also
times that a person would get separated from their family. That person will
never .....

George Smith Patton Junior was born on November 11, 1885 in San Gabriel, California. Even though George grew up on his father ranch, he learned a lot of things.

Cold War
.... in the home fronts, where people wondered why 54,000 US men had died and many more were wounded for virtually no gains. Many people also questioned the country’s determination in enforcing containment. This led to a much larger defense budget, as NSC-68 had outlined. Just as the Korean War was coming to an end, another was brewing 2,000 miles to the south.
Vietnam long controlled by France, had also been occupied by the Japanese during World War II. France was determined to win back its empire aft .....

Europe And The New World
.... was that the native people of the new world were inferior to the Europeans and would have to become domesticated if they were to survive in the ‘new world.’ However was this triumph over the inhabitants of the land evidence of a superior civilisation?
How does one define ‘Civilisation’? For if we are to discuss what is a superior and an inferior race then understanding of the term ‘civilisation’ is critical. The term ‘civilisation’ is used everyday and is understood by everyone, yet .....
