    King Philips War was the last Native American attempt to push off the invading whites from America. Their efforts were left in vain; however, it did inflate the most destruction on a white population in American history. The Native Americans problems and reasons for getting rid of the colonists were based from the lack of land, since more settlers kept pouring into their region, and competition for resources needed for survival. Nevertheless, the biggest problem, and what I believe became the ultimate reason for the war, was the Puritans earnest attempt to convert Native Americans into Christianity. New England established 14 praying towns where Native Americans could live, but under certain stipulations, they had to become essentially English.…

    British victory in The Seven Years’ War (French-Indian War between 1756-1763) left Britain with tremendous debt and the British government decided that the American colonies, who benefited the most from this war, should pay part of the war’s costs. To achieve this goal, the British Parliament passed a series of acts designed to pay the debt with colonial assistance. The American colonists were not happy with such tight control. The first act passed by the British Parliament on April 5, 1764 was The Sugar Act, also called Plantation Act, or Revenue Act, with the goal of raising 100,000 pounds, an amount equal to one-fifth of the military expenses in North America. This act was a modified version of the Molasses Act of 1733.…

After what Robert has seen he is left distraught, because he decided Taffler is the person he wants as a mentor.

    From Slavery to a Newer Slavery Although the titles of Langston Hughes’ “Theme for English B” and Ralph Ellison’s “The Battle Royal” differ completely, they both intend to display African Americans as the subaltern and whites as the hegemony. The subaltern being a group or groups of people, who the hegemony imposes upon and the hegemony being the imposer of its own culture, environment and expectations upon the subaltern. In “Battle Royal” and “Theme for English B,” the hegemony imposes upon the subaltern by using different methods of grading based on the race of each student, rejection of their unifying human attributes and speaking in a less formal way to emphasize their position as the tyrannical hegemony. “Theme for English B” and “The…

    The Spanish Civil War in 1936-1939 is a historically complex event interwoven in both internal and foreign agendas. This was manifest in the involvement of various factions from militia, unions, and parties of different standings and ambitions. Not less important was the overt interest of other countries in the Spanish national affairs, such as the direct intervention of Germany and Italy or the non-intervention stance of Britain and France; an aspect which would ultimately decide the outcome of the civil war itself. The war is predominantly recorded as a fight between the Right-winged Nationalists and the Left-winged Republicans, the Conservatives versus the Liberals, and to many, Spanish Civil War had been seen ultimately as a warfare waged…
