“Daring Greatly” When Theodore Roosevelt used the phrase “daring greatly” in his speech‚ Citizenship in a Republic‚ he did not use it lightly.

considering the importance and extent to which the Great Depression was the main cause of the collapse and decline of the Weimar Republic‚ it is necessary to assess other factors which also added to its failure. The Great Depression was a prominent reason in the latter stages of the Weimar republics collapse‚ it accelerated its failure in 1929 and by 1932 arguably the Weimar Republic couldn’t go on. Despite this‚ the main cause of the collapse was the continuous poor economic state of Germany which hindered

Nothing lasts forever. Not even the great Roman republic that lasted for hundreds of years before three people took complete control. As they died and new people came in it weakened the once great empire and caused it to eventually fall. It’s the year 509 B.C. and the Romans are finally no longer under the rule of the Etruscan king. They create a republic where they elect citizens to rule. The aristocrats or patricians dominated while the plebeians had almost no say in the government. Plebeian
