Wall finally fell. November 9, 1989, communism and the Soviet Union was struck with a blow that would affect them forever. The wall fell on this chilly evening and the torch of democracy had never shone so bright. All the while West Germans greeted East Germans face to face after almost 30 years of separation. The Berlin Wall was the image of communism for the world (“Berlin Wall” History.com). An image that, much like the government system it was erected under, could never last. And such a…

Berliners were celebrating the fall of the Berlin wall. This was after a period of three decades where the West was kept apart from the East Berliners.

Huge amount of individuals had converged at the walls crossing point before the permission was granted. People from the East Germany shouted and cheered while surging towards the wall as those from West met them with jubilations. On this…

The Civil War in Yemen Background: The Yemeni Civil War, in its complexity, is very difficult topic to fully comprehend. However, to gain an understanding how it all began is a slightly less confusing matter.

The Earth is beautiful and precious, but its beauty can mask unaware people of the deep wounds below its surface. Like humans, this planet has its own unique flaws. In this case, the Earth suffers from scars that are continually getting deeper.

With its inhabitants’ lives at stake on this beautifully sad world, they need its tears to survive.…

Domestication and Agriculture I wasn’t sure what to expect given this assignment especially since, most people take food for granted and look to a grocery store as a dispensary. I knew many foods had to have originated somewhere but where was uncertain as there are many plants that are native to one place and through time immigrated elsewhere. In addition, many foods have been domesticated as well as new strands and varieties created. My biggest concern with foods today isn’t so much from…

Looking at religion as a whole, we see certain groups of people expressing their faith by committing acts of terrorism, and subordination. In other…

democracy in the Middle East was a viable option but that, because of many cultural reasons, was not the best option for that region. Now, having taken this course and learned about the different aspects of Middle East governance, I do not think that democracy is a viable option at all. It is not the matter of democracy cannot succeed in the Middle East or anything like that, it is the matter of democracy not being properly suited for societies like those in the Middle East. The agenda of the…
