World War 2
.... which means "Leader". By the end of the 30's he was already sending Jews off too concentration camps to meet a horrible death.
I believe that Hitler was one of the greatest causes of World War 2. Although there are many other reasons, he was definitely one of them. Another reason was the Treaty of Versailles. This was the treaty that was signed at the end of World War 1. This treaty outlined the rules that Germany must follow because of their defeat by Britain and France. Many Germans wer .....

.... may in your mind compare such an unlikely Beginning with the Figure I have since made there. I was in my working Dress, my best Clothes being to come round by sea. I was dirty from my journey; my pockets were stuff’d out with shirts and stockings; I knew no Soul, nor where to look for lodging. I was fatigu’dwith Traveling, Rowing and Want of Rest. I was very hungry, and my whole stock of cashconsisted of a Dutch Dollar and and about a Shilling in Copper. The latter I gave the People of .....

Anti-semitism In Nazi Germany
.... members of the Nazi party. Baldur Von Shirach, a former Nazi youth leader, told a psychologist, "You have no idea what a great influence this book had on the thinking of the German youth…I read Henry Ford's book 'The International Jewry'…and became anti-Semitic." (Pinson, K 1966:487). It is not that anti-Semitism did not exist within Germany. 'Der nationale Sozialismus' (1st ed., Munich, 1920; 2nd ed., 1992), written by Rudolf Jung of Troppau, contained heavy anti-Semitic views and was cons .....

India 2
.... Indian population remains too poor to afford an adequate diet. India's exports, currency, and foreign institutional investment were affected by the East Asia crisis in late 1997 and early 1998. Export growth has been decreasing in 1996-97, averaging only about 4 percent to 5 percent, which is a large crop from 20 percent increases it was having over the prior three years- mostly because of the fall in Asian currencies relative to the rupee. Energy, telecommunications, transportation shortages, and the .....

India 3
.... "China has 7% of the World's arable land. Canada has 3% but only.5% of the World's people. In China this equals 1/10 of a hector per person. This is 1/9 of the amount in the U.S.A. and ½ the amount in India" (1987, pg. 42,)
The birth rate of India in 1983 was 34 and the death rate was 14. The population growth of 2%, even with extensive birth control efforts has remained the same. It is difficult to exert pressure on the people due to the democratic political system.
The population of India i .....

The war based on unconfirmed charges that Spain had sunk the Maine, an American battleship. The war with Spain was not a noble was because even though Spain on April 10 agreed to the governments term to suspend hostility in Cuba, the U.S had declared was a few days earlier. The war was a short war, that lasted from May 1, 18948 to July 26, 1898 only a few months. The war did not end there, soon the U.S wold attack the Philippines, which was owned by Spain.

Indian Imperialism
.... of those goods with the natural advantage (jute, tea etc.) and in those areas where competition with British counterparts was not serious (coarse goods). During the inter-war period of 1914 - 39, it was in the production of consumer goods for mass market within India, mainly due to war tariffs and depression. Finally the last decade of British rule from 1939-47, brought another phase - the production of capital goods for the domestic market. It started with factories and the mining of natural resources, b .....

Another part of the book that I truly enjoyed reading was the section on Grant’s Peace Policy. While Grant served as General in Chief of the United State Army a group of Quakers, know as the Friends, urged him to adopt a new peace policy. This policy was to be founded on Chri .....

Indians 3
.... in southeastern Connecticut. They named their homeland the Moheganeak. It occupied the upper and western portions of the Thames River. All the Mohegan people lived within three different clans. The three clans made up the Mohegan tribe. Every one of the clans had its own chief. The chiefs had only limited power within the clans. If the Mohegan people did not believe in what the chief had to say, then the people did not have to obey it. One of the ways the Mohegans obtained food was by burning thei .....

Indigenous Religions Compared
.... it just helps to sit there and think. It is a way of keeping her memory alive and helping me to cope with her being gone.
Another case of similarity is how many indigenous cultures undergo a "vision quest." During these quests "they undergo ritual purification, and are then sent alone to a sacred spot to cry to the spirits to reveal something of this purpose in life and help them in their journey." ( pg. 71) This particular ritual is very similar to the Catholic practice of confession. .....

Industrail Revolution
.... The merchants needed cheaper items, as well as larger quantities, for their growing trade. They had to establish another system of producing goods. The cottage or domestic industry filled in the gap for some time, because it gave the merchant a large supply of manufactured articles at a low price. It provided employment for every member of a craft worker's family and gave jobs to skilled workers who had no capital to start businesses for themselves. A few merchants who had enough capital had gone a step fu .....

Scholars differ as to whether or not these early settlements evolved directly into the urban communities of the mature Indus civilization, but it is clear from archaeological research that by the late 4th millennium (c.3200 BC) large villages were being formed along the entire course of the Indus River.

The famous cities of the mature Indus civilization were discovered accidentally in the mid-19th century during the construction of a railroad by British en .....

Documents four, nine, and thirteen all convey the same message, one of equality. Document four does this by illustrating both a male and a female working together to achieve a common scientific task. At first, documents nine and thirteen both tell of how society conceived a “learned woman” to be abnormal. In contrast though, the article describing Dorothea Schlozer, the first woman to receive a Ph.D. from a German university, tells o .....

For much of the 18th century, London had been at the center of a complex world trade network that became the basis for the growing export trade associated with industrialization.
