    Pablo Escobar is maybe one of the biggest players in organized crime ever. Pablo Escobar's savage mind set is what set him different from other drug traffickers in Colombia. If he caught you stealing from him, he would have your hands caught off. Because of so many people after him, he decided to join forces with other gangs and big dogs in the drug trade. This was the formation of the Medellin Cartel. The cartel had great success. They had cocaine running through Colombia, Bolivia, Peru, Honduras, the United States , as well as Canada and Europe. At their peak, they supported the world's cocaine. They contributed to at least 84% of cocaine throughout the world. They were bringing in $420,000,000 a week. They were the ones to bring cocaine…

    On November 8, 1519, Aztec Emperor Moctezuma and Spanish Conquistador Hernan Cortes met for the first time outside the Aztec capital city of Tenochtitlan. Aztec accounts of the event, compiled by Miguel Leon-Portillo shortly after and published as The Broken Spears, claim that Moctezuma (also Montezuma) believed Cortes was a god. “Our Lord, you are weary. The journey has tired you, but now you have arrived on the earth. You have come here to site on your throne, to sit under its canopy.” The accounts also say that Cortes told Moctezuma, “We have come to your house in Mexico as friends. There is nothing to fear.” Moctezuma would soon be dead, and Cortes would be the ruler of New Spain.…

    In Simón Bolívar’s message to the Congress of Bolivia, he introduced new concepts that he felt would provide a better outcome for the country and the people of Bolivia. He shared his views on what he considered the necessary changes for the Bolivian government. He proposed a new system of representation, which were the four political powers. The four political powers are similar to a federal system. He suggested that the people would be the ones who appoint the legislators, magistrates, judges, and pastors, through elections. Bolívar states that in the political powers it is necessary for mutual respect. The people who hold positions in the political powers must have complete control over themselves in a calm manner, which means they could not possess any passion during their deliberations.…

    Spanish conquistadors. In their search for gold, they instead found a mountain of silver and they hired indigenous slaves to mine it all out and hand it over to the Spanish. Spain became incredibly rich but made their taxes poorly and experienced inflations that caused them to lose a majority of their wealth. China experienced a similar thing when they received silver, and then created a new tax form for silver rather than goods. Silk makers were heavily needed because the Chinese needed something that they could trade with Japan to get silver to pay for their new taxes. With the overwhelming amount of silver, this created another inflation and that caused the downfall of their economy.…

The Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo sparked many lasting controversies and political/social issues still present today.

    It is within human nature to feel as though one can label a person as good or bad without fully knowing that person. Serial killers are a type of species presumed to be inherently evil and more flawed then the devil himself. This definition of serial killers is widely accepted among different nations because as a whole the people of the world genuinely agree on what is coherently good as well as what is coherently evil. Thanks to universal coverage and bias opinion which is divulged by the media most people have difficulties seeing serial killers in any other light besides the root of all evil. Something not quite understood by people is the lack of morality which is evident in all, not just serial killers. Sadly enough in today's society forgiveness is not something easy to gain and in order for it to be sincere the past must be forgotten, something even more difficult to achieve than equality. Considering that most, if not all, serial killers follow through with their actions based on some form of chemical inequality within their brain; it seems to make no sense as to why the human population would judge them any more than they would judge a person with autism. Modern day views on serial killers have been produced from the world's lack of knowledge within the psychology field from the start. Before people were given the correct information as to why serial killers killed people it was assumed that they were simply horrid people who must be killed. Now more is known about the psychological issues serial killers experience which causes them to pursue certain actions allowing for their reasoning to be somewhat understood by all. Serial killer Pedro López, although, had a different and more disturbed childhood than most serial killers which is thought to have lead to his type of crime. Like most "normal" people Pedro López was unable to forget the past of revise it in any way. The trauma Pedro López faced as a child caused psychological issues upon him, beginning…

    Throughout history there have been several leaders who used their cunning and sly intelligence to trick the general population into following them and their beliefs. Eventually, these leaders had so much support, they could no longer be called leaders, but absolute and dictatorial rulers. However, during the period of Enlightenment and of the French Revolution, non-maleficent ideas, created by Locke, Montesquieu, Voltaire, and other Enlightenment Philosophes, were spread throughout the European population. They stated the opposition to absolute monarchies as well as a new main focus on people's innate rights and freedoms. Many leaders after this period of Enlightenment preached its ideas, while others simply used them to gain power.…
