On the other hand the Roman system of Alimenta shares a great deal of similarities with modern welfare as it is currently known, the Roman Empire being the birth place of many currently utilized government systems. Originally Alimenta actually began under the reign of the first Roman emperor known as Augustus, at this time it was referred to as Cura Annonae which stood for "care for the grain supply", as the name would imply this particular system under Augustus dealt more with grain than financial status. The Cura Annonae focused upon attempting to provide rations of grain to citizens of the Roman Empire who could not themselves afford to purchase food for themselves or their families, this is the first recorded instance in history of a system…
Tequila is an alcoholic beverage that comes from the blue agave plant, primarily in the area surrounding the city of Tequila, hence giving it the same name. It was first produced in the 16th century near the location of the city Tequila. Aztecs previously made beverages from the agave plant long before the Spanish arrived in 1521. Around 1600, Don Pedro Sánchez de Tagle began producing Tequila at a factory in modern-day Jalisco. By 1608, the colonial governor of Nuevo Galicia had begun to tax his products.

For my second cultural activities, i went to eat at a Mexican restaurant called El loro that is located in crystal. They had a lot of options but I decided to try enchiladas de mole which are traditionally made mostly in Mexico. enchilada has been the most popular Mexican dishes for a long time. Even though enchiladas were first introduced 19 centuries they became popular in the 20 the century. Some people have traced back the origin of enchiladas to pre-Columbian culture particularly to the Aztecs. However, this is only partially true because the Aztecs had chili peppers, sauces, and tortillas but there is no evidence suggest that they made anything similar to what Mexicans call enchiladas. Plus, many ingredients that are used to make enchiladas…

As the story got recounted and told from place to place, details got mixed up. This proved to be a huge problem when El Dorado, the tribal chief of the Musica tribe, became the legendary lost "City of Gold." Since it was called the city of gold, it was something so spectacular that everyone wanted a part of it, mainly for power. Because everyone imagined this "City of Gold" to be so fantastic, it later became a kingdom, an empire, and eventually the city of a legendary golden king.…
