    What Was The Political Scope Of The 1910s

    The political scope of the 1910s also defined the growth of German nationalism and military power, which began to become realized in potential invasions of Belgium and the Austria-Hungary territorial disputes. Of course, the rise of German industrialization had allowed the formation of a world-class naval fleet, and the continued threat of military power in Germany throughout Europe. By this time, Wilhelm II was able to act as a more aggressive political figure in the quest to gain territorial expansion into Hungary and Belgium. This type of political hostility defined the underlying fears of British and France concerns about an invasion. The military might of Germany was not a major part of the political tensions surrounding the assassination…

    The density of water is approximately one gram per cubic centimeter. It is dependent on its temperature, but the relation is not linear and is unimodal rather than monotonic (see table at left). When cooled from room temperature liquid water becomes increasingly dense, as with other substances, but at approximately 4 °C (39 °F), pure water reaches its maximum density. As it is cooled further, it expands to become less dense. This unusual negative thermal expansion is attributed to strong, orientation-dependent, intermolecular interactions and is also observed in molten silica.[22]…

    Stock Market

    The size of the world stock market was estimated at about $36.6 trillion at the beginning of October 2008.[1] The total world derivatives market has been estimated at about $791 trillion face or nominal value,[2] 11 times the size of the entire world economy.[3] The value of the derivatives market, because it is stated in terms of notional values, cannot be directly compared to a stock or a fixed income security, which traditionally refers to an actual value. Moreover, the vast majority of derivatives 'cancel' each other out (i.e., a derivative 'bet' on an event occurring is offset by a comparable derivative 'bet' on the event not occurring). Many such relatively illiquid securities are valued as marked to model, rather than an actual market price.…
