Many people have left their country to come to America. Many immigrants came to America because of push and pull factors. A push factor is when somebody is forced to leave their country. A pull factor is when somebody chooses to leave their country. The United States attracted a large number of Russian immigrants during the years 1901-1930. One reason that Russians left Russia and immigrated to America was famine. Russia suffered from famine caused by bad weather and it ruined the crops. Russians were left starving to death in 1891-1892. Some areas were even so poor that all people had to eat were bread and water. According to Russian Immigration to America, 5 million Russians died in the Russian Famine of 1921 “5 million Russians died in the…

It is clear that the framers of the Alabama 1901 Constitution had one goal, to silence their opponents. They used poll taxes, literacy tests, grandfather clauses and other forms of disenfranchisement. Not only are they responsible for disenfranchisement but also they are responsible for centralization of political power. Alabama after the ratification the 1901 constitution lacks home rule, amends a surplus of amendments that only affect specific counties, and weakens local democracy. To begin…

Carthage had a vast amount of wealth and resources from its prestigious commerce in trade and a formidable navy (Levin, 2002, June; Morey, 1901). Furthermore, Carthage had a plethora of brilliant and capable leaders (Morey, 1901). In contrast, Rome did not yet have a large navy but they did field a large, well-trained and well organized citizen army (Morey, 1901). Moreover, Rome had a loyal body of citizens who would defend Rome and each other from outside threats which contrasted with Carthage…

Carthage was the ancient Phoenician city-state situated in present day Tunisia on the African continent. She had her influence extending over much of the present day coast of North Africa as well encompassing some parts of present day Spain and the islands of the western Mediterranean Sea (Morey, 1901). Initially Carthage was a colony of Tyre and she got her independence at around 650 BC (Morey, 1901). Just like Carthage, Rome was a super power of her time. She grew out of the Roman republic and…

Introduction During the 3rd century B.C., two powers arose in the Western Mediterranean, Rome and Carthage, whose epic struggle for dominance of the region would reshape the ancient world (Morey, 1901). Rome would emerge the victor and subsequently, numerous modern governments owe Rome for the basis of their laws and organization of their systems (Noonan, n.d.). However, if Carthage had emerged the victor and our world governments had looked to Carthage for inspiration, would they be structured…

While not outwardly different under the rule of the kings, once Rome had eliminated Kingship, there was a wide and noticeable gap between the two classes of Romans: the patricians and the plebeians. The main economic and political differences between the two groups consisted primary of: the plebeians inability to hold certain, higher ranking offices, the drastic economic inequality unfair debt laws, and finally the "unequal division of public land" (Morey, 1901, para. 5). It 's not unreasonable…

(Morey, 1901). Prior to the wars, Rome was a force to be reckoned with as it had grown in power through a series of wars with neighboring states in which it was triumphant. Rome was so big and with citizens so loyal, few other states would dare challenge its might. That is until, Carthage had grown to almost it's equal. Differences were abundant between the two. For example, Carthage had more wealth but was less organized; Carthage held a superior Navy, however a less efficient army (Morey,…

The Patricians lived in the city sheltered by the city walls, I imagine it was similar to the gated communities in modern times, however, the poor Plebeians were forced into the outskirts and farmlands with no walls for protection. Army service drew men away from their land and on occasion they’d return home to mere ruins after their homes had been attacked (Morey, 1901. para 2). What do you do when you have no funds to rebuild? you take out a loan, which is what they had to…
