The failure of the League of Nations in the 1930 ’s was due to two main reasons. Firstly‚ the absence of the USA. The League of Nations was thought up by the American president Woodrow Wilson it was one of his 14 points. He had come up with the idea‚ the League was in a sense his child‚ yet he was allowed no part in it. The American congress had refused to become members of The League and this caused all sorts of problems. America had the biggest trade industry and without them agreeing to economic

The Iroquois theatre was said to be the most finest and elegant theatre in the USA. It was advertised as fire proof and totally safe by bribed Chicago city officials and building inspectors. On Dec 30‚ 1903‚ the Iroquois was packed with almost 2‚000 people who were watching the sold-out Holiday play called “Bluebeard”. The fire started backstage and quickly spread through the entire Theatre. The Management had locked the Fire Exits and most outside doors to keep people from sneaking into the

In my opinion I agree with the view of human character from which the Iroquois portray in this myth. The world is separated in two. One world is the crooked mind and the other is the straight mind‚ like the left-handed twin and the right-handed twin. To me the world is separated into good and evil. The good is basically the straight mind. For example someone that helps someone out with his or her homework is doing an act of kindness‚ which is labeled as a good person. Also for example some one that

In the final years leading up to the Second World War‚ it became very apparent that most countries would do anything to stay out of the impending warfare. Up to this point‚ appeasing the hot headed aggressors was the accepted way to go about international business‚ even if it meant giving land to a tyrant in the hope it would cease hostilities. On the contrary‚ giving in only seemed to embolden the resolve of the aggressors. Across the ocean from the focal point‚ the United States preferred to play

beliefs and expectations for the culture. A story that will be told for all generations. It may never be known which story is the true one. One of the more interesting comparisons in cultures is that of the Native Americans and the Puritans. The Iroquois‚ a Native American tribe‚ believe that the world was not actually created but that it already existed. There was a sky world and an ocean that laid below. The sky world was full of sky people‚ and among the sky people was a pregnant woman and her

The Women of the Native American Iroquois tribes have enjoyed a much more active role in politics than that of their European counterparts. In fact‚ they had a form of equality that was unheard of in European society in the late 1700s‚ where women were normally considered inferior to men. In almost every instance‚ the wife was expected to be subordinate to the husband whose authority was absolute over her. They were thought to be weak; and expected to be subservient to their husband in all things

Genesis vs. Iroquois Creation Myth All different cultures have their own creation stories‚ mostly all containing the elements of a Higher Power of some sort‚ how the power created the world‚ and the creation a human man. The Christian belief in the Genesis story has these key elements ‚ as does the Iroquois creation myth‚ The World on the Turtle’s Back. Although these two creation stories share similarities‚ they also have some stark contrasts. These contrasts include‚ how the two cultures of

The League of Corinth was quintessentially represented a tool of Macedonian control over the known Greek world. Yet to fully understand how the League of Corinth can be interpreted as an instrument of Macedonian control‚ one must recognise the unstable relationship between the Macedonians and the Greek city states‚ particularly the Athenians‚ prior to the formation of the League in 337 BC. Indeed‚ Philip’s reign as Macedonian king‚ one of initial instability and uncertainty‚ eventually became a rule
