What interested me the most in my social studies class were “The Sons of Liberty.” The Sons of Liberty were the masterminds of the boston tea party. “The Boston tea party” is when the colonist of Great Britain had dressed up as indians and dumped all the tea in the harbor. The Sons of Liberty, a well-organized Patriot paramilitary political organization shrouded in secrecy, was established to undermine British rule in colonial America and was influential in organizing and carrying out the…
Ronald Reagan and the People Imagine living in an America in which people had safety protocols for a nuclear weapon strike. Imagine living with the thought of nuclear attack always on the back of everyone’s mind. These were the thoughts of many American’s before Ronald Reagan took office. “When Ronald Reagan took over the White House, the end of the Cold War not only seemed a very long way off—nobody in fact thought in such terms at the time—but in many respects it actually looked as if the USSR…
Miller-Urey Experiment The goal of the Miller-Urey experiment was to recreate the “primordial soup” that was the Earth's early oceans. In the atmosphere, the chemicals H2O, CH4, NH3, and H2, or water, methane, ammonia, and hydrogen. Electrical storms were also very common at this point in time, and Miller and Urey's goal was to recreate these circumstances as accurately as possible in order to see if life would currently form under these conditions. They set up a fairly simple contraption that…
Dear Members of the Royal Court and Parliament, As a staff member in the Ministry of Colonial Affairs, I am writing to you to about the threat of war with France and how New England’s colonies available assets can be used as well as the potential challenges of the region as we prepare for the possibility of war.

Joseph Stalin, The Cold War, and the Positive Effects on the Modern World Oleksander Yaroslav was a member of the 80% of the population of Ukraine that owned farmland in the 1930’s. Oleksander had heard about the Russian grip tightening on his country in the mistaken fear that his fellow citizens of Ukraine were planning a secession from the USSR.

The virus had taken many lives internationally, after the release of samples into foreign nations to cover its origin in the United States. First it was a manmade virus from a military base in California, later causing the death of the American Empire. As I lay in my deathbed, I recall the beginning of the end. Hallucinations brought on by the virus, enhanced by the lack of oxygen and pain of death. It is the first day I fail to get out of bed. I stare at the ceiling, and slowly the dull blue…
Rick Peterson is a survivor of the Bataan Death March which was a brutal journey, but the ones that actually survived the march know how bad it was. I’m not going to go into much detail at the moment because you need to know little about the background. For starters the Japanese rounded up the Americans and Filipinos and forced them to march from mariveles on the southern end of San Fernando. The men were divided into groups that’s how the name became as the Bataan Death March came to be.…

our country thus making it very important to us. Radioactive compounds that are used to run the nuclear reactor's turbines by heating water into steam which run generators to produce electricity though are a dangerous hazard to us. There have been many nuclear plants accidents in our country, but the Three Mile Island accident is one of the most significant regarding hazard management ("How does a nuclear reaction take place?," n.d.) The purpose of this paper is to us to evaluate the Three Mile…
As the zombie apocalypse begins to take over our country, mankind must fight to survive. First, a safe location must be determined. Second, a survival plan at said location must be made and if possible, researched. Lastly, weapons are very important. Choosing a survival location should be the number one priority. A tropical island located close to the mainland would be ideal. An island would keep zombies away as they do not go into the water. The island should be close to the mainland so that…
