... took the lives of millions of innocent people. Between 1939-1945, six million people were murdered. Almost ninety percent of the Jewish population in Europe was destroyed, and for what? Their lives were taken because Adolf Hitler believed that being Jewish was a crime. How can one man decide that he is more worthy that others because of their religious beliefs or the color of their hair. He lifted himself above others and decided who should live and who should die, and for that crime he remained unpunished. Those who have survived the holocaust have firsthand knowledge of the evil people, which so unfairly stru ...

... for horses and supplies along the way. Also two other tribes met along the way by the party were the Shoshone and Mandans. Lewis and his crew spent a winter with the Mandans and learned to survive in the cold weather by learning to make moccasins, and also to use nature to keep themselves alive and healthy. The Shoshone let the crew rest in their village for some time and also gave them their first taste of salmon. Yet over the course of the expedition, Lewis and Clark developed a ritual that they used when meeting a tribe for the first time. The captains would explain to the tribal leaders that the their land n ...

... were under suspicion of harboring liberal ideals. Marx himself seemed to be a devoted Christian with a "longing for self-sacrifice on behalf of humanity." In October of 1835, he started attendance at the University of Bonn, enrolling in non-socialistic-related classes like Greek and Roman mythology and the history of art. During this time, he spent a day in jail for being "drunk and disorderly-the only imprisonment he suffered" in the course of his life. The student culture at Bonn included, as a major part, being politically rebellious and Marx was involved, presiding over the Tavern Club and joining a club for p ...

... and the 1932 Disarmament Conference is a story of failure. Specific proposals contained too many flaws and nations took diametrically opposed positions on the entire issue.In some ways it could be argued that disarmament was and still isa logically impossible. The first step in disarmament after the war was the treatment meted out to Germany in the Treaty of Versailles.It was hoped that this would begin a general move towards disarmament.Article 8 of the League Covenant saw disarmament as a specific goal: The members of the League recognise that the maintenance of peace requires the reduction of national armaments ...

... also referred to as NEP. This economy called for some private ownership of the means of production, but the majority of industry was made property of the people, which meant the majority of the means of production was controlled by the government. Lenin’s government made many achievements. It ended a long civil war against the remnants of the old Tsarist military system and established institutions in government. During this period, censorship and the subordination of interest groups such as trade unions was imposed to stop dissension and increase conformity to the new government policies. After Lenin’s deat ...

... that the pieces could be the wreckage of a top-secret project and that the army would be the best authority for the situation. The Army checked and found that, in fact, no secret projects had been performed in that location. Jesse Marcel and Captain Sheridan Cavitt decided to drive to the farm outside of Corona, New Mexico and look at the crash site for themselves. Upon seeing the crash site, they mutually decided that the wreckage was not from this world and that they must alert the Pentagon. The Pentagon already knew by this time what was happening in , and General Clemence McMullen told Army Air Field that ...

... the U.S. government responded by imposing a trade embargo. A complete break in diplomatic relations occurred in 1961 and on April 17th of that same year, United States backed Cuban exiles came up with a plan to overthrow Castro. Approved by President John F. Kennedy, the invasion launched about 1300 exiles, trained by the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and armed with U.S. weapons, at the Bahia de Cochinos (Bay of Pigs) on the coast of Cuba. Castro's army quickly stopped the exiles that hoped to find local support. Ninety of the invader's were killed and twelve hundred captured. This failure was a big embar ...

... to supply the European demands. The Natives and the French were required to interact with each other in order to make these trades possible, and, over time, the two groups developed a lasting alliance. However, the French began to face strong competition in the fur trading industry, which caused many problems between different European nations and different native tribes. Therefore, the trading of fur allowed early seven- teenth century French explorers to establish peaceful relations with the Natives, however, com- petitive trading also incited much quarreling between competing colonies and Indian tribes. ...

... of Germany. On September 26, Stresemann ordered the end of the general strike in the Ruhr and decided to pay reparations. Rightfully believing that there would be anger and revolts to his announcement, Stresemann had President Ebert declare a state of emergency. The Bavarian government was unhappy with Stresemann's capitulation and declared its own state of emergency on the same day as Stresemann's announcement. Bavaria was then ruled by a triumvirate which consisted of Generalkommissar Gustav von Kahr, General Otto von Lossow (commander of the army in Bavaria), and Colonel Hans Ritter von Seisser (commander of t ...

... occurred in Rome after his death. The contributions that Caesar made towards the strength of Rome’s success, and the chaos and collapse of Rome after his death made the assassination of Julius Caesar a tragedy. Julius Caesar was assassinated by his own senate on March 15 44 BC; also known as the Ides of March. As he was walking in to the senate house, a man told him to beware the Ides of March. He ignored this statement and walked into the senate house. At this time some of the Senate members surrounded Caesar in a stealthy manner and tugged on his toga. As he looked around he was stabbed by many of the senate me ...
