    William Penn was a holy man, a do-gooder by all means, who in 1681, was granted land in the New World, and set out to commence his “Religious Experiment”, with his Quaker brethren. Penn had a vision for his own utopia and would end up investing all of his assets in the newly found colony which is now Pennsylvania. Much of his money as well as other investors’ went to the process of actually acquiring the land which was one of the most crucial objectives in Penn’s plan.

    Before the Crusades began Europe was isolated in many regards, but especially to trade. However, in the beginning, the Crusades started as a way for nobles to get out their frustrations and to stop feuding against one another and "Pope Urban may well have believed that the Crusade[s] would reconcile and reunite Western and Eastern Christianity" (text p. 405). The first Crusade was a success. The "goal was to rescue the holy city of Jerusalem, which had been in the hands of the Seljuk Turks since the seventh century" (text p. 405). Once Jerusalem was rescued, "the Crusaders divided conquered territories into the feudal states of Jerusalem, Edessa, and Antioch" (text p 406). The Crusaders soon learned that they were just a small portion of the world around them and "found themselves increasing on the defensive" (text p 406) once they had settled in. The second Crusade was an attempt to rescue Edessa, which had fallen into Muslim hands in 1144. The "attempted rescue [was] met with dismal failure" (text p. 407). The third Crusade became known as a "tragicomic commentary on the passing of the original crusading spirit" (text p. 407). It was led by Emperor Fredrick Barbarossa who accidentally drowned, Richard the Lion-Hearted and Philip Augustus, who were constantly fighting one another. In the long-run the first three crusades "had little to do with their original purpose. Politically and religiously they were a failure" (text p. 408). The two most positive things that…

    Throughout history, powerful leaders are often looked at as either a hero or a tyrant for their country. Many people argue that Napoleon was a hero for France rather than a tyrant for France because of his great achievements and how he helped them through a economic decline. Napoleon’s first consulate created many reforms that aimed to save France from corruption. I believe Napoleon was a hero due to his financial and public education reforms, concordat with the church, the public works projects, and the Napoleonic Code. Even though it was said that he did these things for himself he still save France from total disaster [Napoleon Series].…
