In the first quarter of the German peasants revolts were caused after Luther wanted the Catholic Church to reform. There was a violent reaction of the peasants towards the aristocracy. Since the revolts were unplanned and uncoordinated, many peasants were slaughtered when going after the aristocrats. The varying reactions of the different classes were based on religious belief, and large social stratification difference. Luther’s teachings were taken extremely when the peasants of the Holy…

He grew up in poverty and became the richest man on earth. His name was Andrew Carnegie. And he is my hero. I admire him the most because of his persistency and generosity. When he was a young man, his boss Thomas A. Scott told Carnegie: I want a bridge. Over the Mississippi river. A bridge that is strong enough to hold a train. With this we can continue the westward expansion (Keep in mind, it was a wish not a command). Back in the days, just after the Civil War, the railroads were getting…
History of the Drone: The main purpose of a drone is not for the average consumer but for military purposes. The invention of the drone is rooted in war (Sifton, 2012). The first UAV program was initiated during WWI, built by Elmer Ambrose Sperry for the US Navy (Sifton, 2012).

In the release of the information to the public the Navy considered the program a failure, and…
to pick his pockets as he shuffles home after the beating. Hillary Clinton, a weak liberal with globalist tendencies, who, on an off-note, founded ISIS, thinks she can lead this nation, but personally I'd feel a lot more safe being duct-taped to anvil and being dropped into the antarctic sea if the alternative was her than with her sitting in the oval office (that is if she isn't operating from hospital bed by the time the year is out). Ms. Clinton is personification of failure, and after 45…
deeper meaning to his life. Longfellow advances on the blacksmith’s role as a key member of the community: “Thus at the flaming forge of life/Our fortunes must be wrought;/Thus on its sounding anvil shaped/Each burning deed and thought.” Imaging the blacksmith a the edge of a burning flame, working his anvil on each “deed and thought” or “fortune”, allows the reader to understand the passion and dedication that the blacksmith carries through his professional and personal life. Longfellow’s…

In the beginning, the troops marched confidently onto the battlefield of their own death. The tension ran high between countries which started the tragedies of World War I in the summer of 1914. Europe was badly shaken due to the death of 10 million soldiers and another 20 million wounded. The war was primarily fought in Europe for four lengthy years. It is safe to say that the deadly global war had many movements. The three underlying causes of WWI are alliances, militarism, and imperialism.…
