The new republic signified a New France and imperialistic pursuits were one way they intended to regain the stature that they had lost and longed for throughout the course of history.…

Each work has quite a few different women that are portrayed, but the portrayal of each is almost always very similar to one another. In 1001 Arabians Nights the overall portrayal of women is extremely negative.…
