America has been considered great under many different circumstances. The Founding, the World Wars, and countless other achievements helped America become one of the most powerful and prosperous nations on the planet. When people think of America, they think of “American greatness.” The history of America shows spurts of greatness but has also shown the atrocities that are hidden in the past. During the founding slavery was present.…
From the Minutemen of the Revolutionary War to today's high-tech weapons, the American Military has changed and morphed to meet the needs of the times. Our military has evolved massively since the days of our Forefathers and is still growing every day. There are three key events where the American Military was improved and/or evolved setting a path for a more organized, trained, well-equipped, and respected Military. The events that will be discussed regarding the American Military was the Civil War, Mahan’s lectures, and the development of American Air Force. All of which greatly impacted the efficiency and success of the military and gave the United States great foundation for developing and advancing.…
Proud to be an American I am proud to be an American. I am proud because we have always fought for freedom and peace. There are many people who have fought for the freedom of our country. There are also many people who have died for it. In the following paragraphs, I will tell you about three of the five branches of the United States Armed Forces that fight for our freedom, facts about them, and the important battles that they have fought.…
We are warriors, we come from fighters that have fought off things that no other country has ever faced, when we were bombed at Pearl Harbor we came fighting back even though we were weaker than ever, we fought the Axis powers to win a three year war that was going on that we wanted no part of, but when they hurt us we fought back! WE fought for our independence from the Britain even though we…
Isn’t America just great? Beautiful heavens, even buildings. Nope, America is a great place for the most part but at the same time, it is a bad place. America is full of bad people but it is also full of good people.…
Being a member of the US military is considered one of the most, if not the most, patriotic titles a person can have in connection with this country. Serving in the military allows one to develop a sense of integrity and direction that reflects the American spirit. You, dear reader, may have family and/or friends who actively serve or have served as US military personnel. Maybe you are or have been an active member yourself. If so, your service is admired.…
America is a beautiful country and I am proud to call it my home. This is a beautiful land for millions that grants its people plentiful opportunities to start a wonderful life. The United States of America is the most honorable country to live in; we have been credited for our vast amount of freedom to all. America can easily be claimed the greatest nation in the world. We do, however, have an issue, an issue with the homosexuals. The true American people need to do something about this blasphemy.…
Although there are bounteous number of ways that the United States is better than any other country in the world. There are many of reasons why America is better than any other country in the world, but there are many that are better than the rest. Above all, there are plenty of immigrants who come to America because America has the best army over all the other nations in the world. America’s army is the best because no one is forced to do what they do not want to do.…
I don't believe that America was truly free in this time. The " Separate but free" made it clear it wasn't. People were being told where to sit and where they couldn't sit because of the color of their skin. If America would have been truly free, laws like those wouldn't exist and people would be able to go about their day without the fear of being arrested because they sat in the wrong seat in the train. There was also no freedom towards colored people because every time they tried to use their rights, it was always twisted to make it seem like they were treated fairly even when they…
“America is another name for opportunity. Our whole history appears like a last effort of divine providence on behalf of the human race” (Ralph Waldo Emerson). Most people take pride in being an American, as America has provided greater opportunities and has fostered economic success for its’ citizens to be successful. By coming to America, people are able to take advantage of the better opportunities presented to them. The majority of people would interpret living in America as a privilege, as America has given them the chance to turn their life around.…
Have you ever wondered what living in America actually means? To many people being an American is a title filled with sacrifice and courage. To others it means having a democracy style of government, or to be living the American Dream to some it may mean being free. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion and most of them are not wrong, but the question still remains? What does America mean? Does your America entitle freedom and equality, democracy or does it entitle honor and integrity.…
When you hear the word "America", what do you think of? Many would associate this word with freedom, home, friendliness, opportunity, or even greatness. The truth of this reality is that America isn't what people imagine it to be. Americans suggest their country is the greatest place in the world but in fact the corruption, debt, lack of public services and the rude behavior of its people makes America come up short of other's expectations. We the people only imagine it to be great because we live here. The real question to ask yourself is whether everything you have to say about America is true?…
In America, many things are extremely different from other countries. We have completed roads, public restrooms, nice homes, super markets, and plenty of opportunities to live an ideal life. Children receive education and people who have a sickness get treated by doctors. Another reason why immigrants move to America is, because of the money and beautiful women.…
Living in America really shows the true meaning of freedom. America is one of the only countries known to give its citizens freedom to do what they want. The Amendments of the Constitution play a major role in what keeps America and its citizens free; without them our society would get nowhere, the amendments act as a guide to keep the citizens safe and fairly treated. They set up all our laws and let every citizen know and understand their rights as a human being. All it takes is one mistake or for you to mess up once and you can get all your freedom and rights taken away from you. Getting in trouble with the law can change everything in the blink of an eye. Once you get put in jail or prison you are then known as property. The government now owns you until you have served your time; the jail or prison can do what ever they want with you without anyone having a say in it, you are no longer considered a citizen. The amount of time you have to serve will depend on how bad the crime you did was. If it was bad enough you may get put in prison for life.…
