.... of the Cincinnati. They urged the rise of George Washington, a veteran colonial general, as the country’s new king, but Washington refused. In an effort to subside the uproar of the common folk, and to prevent eventual isolation of sovereignty of national affairs unto one person, the Articles granted each state exclusive governing powers over it’s own political matters. By doing this, the Articles prevented the new-formed states from revolting against their own government, and they also gave the states absolute control over their own local and regional matters and political conflicts. In an effort to create a greater sense o .....

.... the war, still did not have the same rights that the constitution guaranteed. Immigrants who went to America were treated unfairly as the enemy. The Immigrants were treated as spies and were ridiculed by the American government, and the American people. The immigrants rights were violated, because we were at war. Opponents of the war were equally criticized and were called traitors. War in reality showed that America was really a divided nation, still young, and making mistakes. World War I showed the separation of the rich, and the lower class. The rich just got richer, while the poor went and fought the battles. "The master class has alwa .....

.... At the same time, Cassius is trying to convince Brutus that Caesar is too ambitious and should be killed before being allowed to rule the Roman Empire. Brutus, always seeking to do what is right, says that he will not betray his honor and loyalty to Rome. That evening, there are strange and unusual natural occurrences--the weather is very strange and violent and fire falls from the sky. Most of the people believe that the weather is a bad omen, but Cassius disagrees. He uses the unusual weather to reason that it is only for evil men (such as Caesar) who need to be afraid. The plotting against Caesar continues. Act II: Brutus is convinced .....

.... lanmark case in the study of UFOs. Barney Barnett, a civil engineer and an outstanding citizen, said he saw the object while out on assignment. Credible and respected sources knew Barnett, who was a retired WWI veteran and past commander of the American Legion Post, and vouched for his credibility. Barnett told of how he had spotted a bright metallic object in the distance. His first thought was that it was a plane that had crashed in the night. He traveled the one mile distance between himself and the object to discover that it wasn’t a plane at all, but rather a “metallic disc-shaped object about 25 or 30 feet across. As .....

.... order of men and women. The patriarchy that ruled Matthias’s kingdom originated in both men’s thoughts from the Calvinism that was their first doctrine as youths around eighteen hundred. Elijah’s Morristown First Presbyterian Church and Mathews Coila Anti-Burhgers church enforced the dominance of men through incorporating their domestic authority into church ritual. With Elijah men sat at the head of the pew and his father and uncles were church trustees. Even though Robert Matthew’s church had an egalitarian dissolution of power and wealth , patriarchal roles were reinforced by men leading their families into .....

.... of relations in the ‘New Europe’. If this did not stop the Yugoslav Federation, people hoped it would at least continue peacefully. Unfortunately this was not to be, the horrific nature of the Yugoslav conflict threatened Europe as a whole, and as a consequence domestic and political and social climate deteriorated rapidly. In Eastern Europe the replacement of communism did not produce a swift and painless transition which was expected. In fact some of the Eastern countries found the Western way so hard it sent them back to communism. Yeltzin’s Russia also began to gain power and raise western fears. All this raised issues in t .....

.... architecture became old-fashioned, but its heavy forms pleased the Cistercian monks and, likewise, other conservative patrons in Germany, Poland, Hungary, Italy, Spain, and Portugal.

.... voyages of Zheng He and his “treasure ships� left a lasting imprint upon the history of seafaring. These voyages were filled with great scribes, doctors, and scientists with great knowledge of seafaring and a desire to acquire tribute for their emperor, Zhu Di, the Son of Heaven.

This essay shall explore this question as well as these equally important ones: Who were these seafarers? Where did they sail? What did they do? How did the sail? How were their ventures organized? And why di .....

.... to him, and can change as the market allows. (Steele, 6) Eric Owen Moss has been described as a "Jeweler of Junk." More likely then not, Philip Johnson used this term to describe Moss for the way he combines different materials in his projects when he is exploring the complexity of his spaces. This term is not fully accurate; Moss merely wishes one to recognize or not to recognize the different materials in their functions and in their relationships to other materials. Los Angeles/Southern California is the bellwether region for architectural design. The residential home is a way for the architect and client to collaborate to creat .....

.... in not abolitionists. They believed that slavery was a flawed system that made the south ineffective and because the North's free labor system was superior it must be guarded from southerners. When the Republican candidate, Abraham Lincoln was elected in 1860, the South felt threatened, and because expansion was vital to the survival of slavery they also felt their way of life was being threatened. Because slavery was such an important part of Southern society, the South felt that they could not survive without it. That's why they were not willing to compromise with the north. To own slaves was a sign of wealth and social prestige an .....
