WONDERS OF THE WORLD Many lists of wonders of the world are said to have existed during the Middle Ages‚ although it is unlikely that these lists originated at that time because the word medieval was not even invented until the Enlightenment-era‚ and the concept of a Middle Age did not become popular until the 16th century. Brewer’s refers to them as "later list[s]" suggesting the lists were created after the Middle Ages. Many of the structures on these lists were built much earlier than the

World Religions and the Masses By: James Hannah World Religions MWF 11-1150 What is religion and why do so many in the world follow a form of it. The masses are so easily moved to follow something. Religion is a way to control the masses‚ but also we can look at that further that internet controls the masses‚ as does cell phones. That is my feeling on the subject. I did learn a lot by the religions that we looked at. I happened to go to the Sikh Temple‚ The Synagogue and to the Cathedral of

The Unipolar World Within the confines of post-Westphalian time there is probably a near consensus amongst realists that the international system can be periodized as multipolar up to 1945‚ and then bipolar up to 1989. Unfortunately the assessment of polarity has become problematic since the end of the Cold War (Buzan and Little‚ 2000:391).

A Different Kind of Rain One scene in The Known World depicts an odd event.
