History of Spain

“Shall the Mothers and Children be Sacrificed to the Financial Greed Of the Liquor Traffic? It’s up to you, voter, to decide. VOTE DRY!” From New York City to Birmingham, Alabama propaganda posters line the streets of large cities and small towns. Some flaunt scared mothers and children while others show saloons swallowing up frightened men trying to make it home.. There is a war going on for the soul of America, and the prohibitionists are winning. The saloon has been a staple of the working…

Immigration is when a person enters a country with the intention of living there. Those of you who think immigration is bad, well, your wrong! I immigrated to this country as Syrian refuge a year ago, coming here changed my life, it freed me from war, it gave a chance to start afresh. When i came here i did not know much english but coming to england help me to progress my knowledge. This leads me to my first point. Immigration provides people with a new start, it allows them to turn over a new…

Based on the documents that I have read, I have learned many things about the arrival, and possible expectation, of Cortes. The documents that I read led me to believe that Moctezuma was very excited to meet Cortes. Document B stated that Moctezuma welcomed Cortes to Mexico by saying that his throne was kept for him and that he has been worried about Cortes for a long time. He also said that he was looking toward the unknown place from which he had come, Moctezuma believed that he would return…

The disaster destroyed records which generated a chance for Chinese residents to state that they were born in the United States. The opportunity gave Chinese citizens to bring their children to America, and be able to return to their village without losing their citizenship. They also claim “new” children had been born to them. Historians called them, “paper sons and daughters” — children on paper only without a direct family connection. These paper children were in effect “slots” which people…

Immigration in America was at full force in the early twentieth century, and Zangwill’s play “The Melting Pot” (1908) along with Kallen’s essay (1915), present two different views and perspectives on the matter. These two important pieces support two different theories for American immigration, “the melting pot”, supported and made popular by Zangwill’s play, and cultural pluralism, promoted by Kallen. “The Melting Pot” supports a sense of assimilation and Americanization by European immigrants.…

America has the largest immigration rate in the world. These immigrants are having difficulties getting settled in our country. There are the nationalists who oppose these immigrants for taking away “American jobs.” It is important to see immigrants, not as enemies, but as people. Though some U.S. citizens welcome immigrants, there are still many who are hostile toward them. For example, immigrants who move here from places such as India, get paid a third of the amount an American-born…

So like we have to understand there was about a quarter of the amount of spaniards as there were Aztecs. Yeah so the Spaniards were more technologically advanced and ish like they had more, well they had guns, which the Aztecs didn’t… then they also had trained animals such as horses and dogs, and again the aztecs didn’t… Also the spaniards had big ass ships. All of these three weapons scared the Aztecs, adding the element of fear and surprise. They also hit the fucking jackpot when it came to…

The topic of my paper is on immigration, more specifically the right to immigrate. In his paper, Michael Huemer presents the following argument; 1. Individuals have a prima facie right to immigrate (that is, a right not to be prevented from immigrating). This is because: a. Individuals have a prima facie right to be free from harmful coercion. b. Immigration restrictions are harmful and coercive. 2. The prima facie right to immigrate is not overridden. In particular: a…

More than a quarter of my lineage can be traced to Russia in Eastern Europe. Life in Russia between 1860 and 1880 was extremely challenging. During this time people experienced severe widespread disease from the highly contagious cholera. This disease was due to food and water being contaminated by fecal matter from lack of proper sanitation equipment. The disease was spread by contaminated water and was responsible for thousands of deaths of people that experienced severe diarrhea and…

Emigration means leaving one country and moving to another. And i’m going to write about the Swedish emigration to the US.
