the past, women in the Dominican Republic are now able to have jobs outside of the household. Also, women are able to get jobs in the government. Now women are allowed to fall in love and marry the person whom they love, and not someone who their fathers choose. As more women are getting jobs outside of the household, women aren’t allowed to get fired from their job just because they are pregnant. Maternity is protected by the constitution of the Dominican Republic. Furthermore, women are now…

rich blend of cultures and freedom. So if Australia cuts ties with the British monarchy and becomes a republic, what real difference will it make? Will it establish the independence and recognition Australia deserves? Will it create dictatorship that Australians cannot escape? Or will it unite Australian citizens as one, with the one common interested shared – the future of Australia.

But the most daring thing is to create stable communities in which the terrible disease of loneliness can be cured.” (Vonnegut) Plato explains the perfect city and their perfect kind. He follows the idea of Vonnegut’s stable community and uses many different ideas to explain how to create this perfect city. Some of his best…

of the powerful Roman Republic is a well known question. There are many events and causes that could of lead to such a crushing defeat for the Republic, but a few known things are the main cause. It is well known that Rome had always been a huge power in the western world and even held control of most of the known world for its time. However, the surface of Rome seemed to hide the growing madness, corruption, and bloodshed that was used to pave the way for the dying Republic. The first cause…

only two years since the Roman Republic was founded, the very first modern democracy. Democracy is the type of government that the Republic now uses, and you are currently heading to Rome to vote on a new law. All of that aside, the Roman Republic wasn’t strictly a democracy. There were also aristocracy and despotism, aristocracy handling the investigations and laws, despotism the military and money. Rome had a democratic area of its government, but the Republic was less of a democracy than a…

Some historians argue that the Weimar Republic was doomed from the start. The republic was weak to begin with, having little to no support and multiple flaws in the constitution. The Weimar Republic—a German democracy created by force by the Allies after Germany’s loss in World War 1—was already having issues, however the economic crisis in 1929-1933 significantly impacted on its downfall. Along with the initial establishment of the republic in 1919 and its weaknesses, there were political and…

The senate in the Roman Republic had created a nice life for themselves with little to no opposition. The senate made their decisions based on what would make them wealthier and there for more powerful in the society of the Roman Republic. The rich got richer, the poor poorer and a few aspiring politicians saw the chance to make a name for themselves using that unfortunate fact in the Roman Republic’s history. This tactic was employed by the Gracchus brothers and that caused a tremor in the…
