Shear wall

nation has not only a huge impact internationally but to its own citizens as well. The Berlin Wall, for twenty-eight years, separated friends, family, and a nation. Unable to agree on a German peace treaty after world war two, the US, Soviet Union, Great Britain, and France maintained a four power responsibility in Berlin (Harrison 53). Due to economic, political, and social consequences, the Berlin Wall divided Berlin into two very distinctively different cities. East Berlin was ruled under a…

“Harrison Bergeron” is a fictitious story written by Kurt Vonnegut in October of 1961. During the time period in which it was published, the Soviet Union (USSR) was still in power. The Soviet Union was a communist society that used force from “secret police”, whose main objective was to censor the people. The story “Harrison Bergeron” has a similar approach set in a dystopian society in the year 2081. In this society “Everybody was finally equal....Nobody was smarter than anybody else. Nobody…

Nothing is Needed for Something Many people judge their success on how much they have and the material possessions around them; Ernest Hemingway, however, believes people must accept they are nothing to achieve true success and happiness. Nothingness is a difficult concept for many to grasp, but it becomes more clear with age what nothingness means. People also often do not want to accept or believe they are nothing in the world. Most believe they have a specific purpose and are in some way…

uction The point of this experiment is to examine the result of altering the concentration of sucrose on the rate of osmosis in cylinders of potatoes. This would occur by using like sizes and lengths of potato cylinders and applying them into varying concentrations of sucrose (1%, 5%, 10%, 15%, and 30%) in test tubes then assessing the change in mass of the potato cylinders after. Sustaining all variables unaffected such as the pH, same size, and a constant temperature. Hypothesis: I predict if…

Introduction Anti-infective agents are classified as antiseptics and disinfectants. They kills or restrict the growth of micro-organism when applied to a living tissue or inanimate objects. An antiseptic when applied to a living tissue like skin it acts as a chemical compound that kills or inhibits the growth of micro-organisms. And the disinfectant is a chemical compound which prevents infection by the destruction of harmful micro-organisms. They reacts when they applied on an inert object…

Osmosis Research Question What will happen to the length and mass of the potato when it is put in water and different concentrations of salt? Introduction Osmosis is the diffusion of water molecules from a region of higher concentration to a lower concentration of water molecules (through a partially permeable membrane). If the cell is placed in a higher water potential, water enters by osmosis and if the cell is placed in lower water potential, then the water leaves the cell by osmosis. The…

don’t have the choice of free rights (JFK 1963). He wants democracy to be the choice that allows free rights, JFK does state that it’s not perfect but doesn’t need a wall to keep Germans from leaving. JFK uses pathos in the sense that how husbands and wives and brothers and sisters have been kept apart from each other because of this wall, his brings emotions to the West Berlin citizens because they can relate and probably have family on the other side that they miss. JFK uses ethos in the way…

The history of the Berlin Wall was ignited by World War II. Germany plotted an attack on Poland, yet was intimidated by the fact that the Soviet Union might interfere. So, before raiding Poland, Hitler made sure to sign a non-aggression pact with the U.S.S.R. This pact secretly stated that Poland should be divided between Germany and the Soviet Union, with Germany receiving the western third, while the Soviets gained control of the remaining two-thirds. Germany began their attacks on Poland on…

East and West Germany. The wall separated the Soviets and the Western Alliance from the control of Germany. The Berlin Wall separated all of Europe from West Germany. Regan took a brave stance to fight for freedom in Germany. Freedom without the separation of the country. Regan says in the speech “Es gibt nur ein Berlin.”, Eastern Europe could not become free as long as they were under the Soviet Union’s control. There is only one Berlin. The tearing down of the Berlin Wall was a big step toward…

down this wall!” President Ronald Reagan spoke these historic words that cut through the air at the Brandenburg Gate on June 12, 1987. After WWII, the Soviet Union divided Germany into East and West. Communism and the Soviet Union claimed the East, while the West allied itself with the United States, England, and France. In August of 1961 the Soviet Union started construction on a barrier to halt a mass emigration from East to West Germany. The barrier would become known as The Berlin Wall. It…
