?The Plight of African American Soldiers in the First and Second World War Although integration within the public school system did not come until the 1960s, integration within the United States military came in 1948; as a presidential decree from then Pres. Harry Truman. However, the back story leading up to this inclusion of African-Americans into the United States Armed Forces is one that spans a very long period of history. Rather than delving back into the contributions that African-Americans have made in wars since the revolutionary war, this particular analysis will instead focus upon African-Americans and their contributions to both World War I and World War II.

?How Liberalism Was Understood In the Early Days In the days of fascism and socialism, liberal democracy was seen as a corruption of the society. These were the days when racial purity was regarded a very significant determinant in the success of a nation or state. Yet, liberal democracy was seen as way to allow all sorts of people to have the same rights as everyone.

?Remnants Of The Enlightenment In National Socialism Introduction Adolf Hitler’s book Table Talk is believed to be a transcription from notebooks written in shorthand by at least two secretaries to Hitler. They followed the instructions of Hitler’s right hand man Martin Bormann to “record for posterity whatever Hitler said in his bunker in Berlin” (Carrier 561) during mealtimes or while taking tea. Besides recording official matters, the secretaries also wrote down things Hitler said in an unplanned or spontaneous manner, logging the entries by date and time of the day such as ‘morning’, ‘afternoon’ or ‘evening’.

The transformation of Napoleon from a military General to a political leader was smooth and sent a strong signal to other countries who were hitherto, looking at the weaknesses in the French political arena to mount counter offensives.

"Causes of the Civil War" Introduction The causes of the civil war are many and complex. While the traditionalists simplify the cause to be the issue of slavery, the total situation which led to the war between North and South was much more than that. Political issues, differences in ideology, uneven levels of modernization and even the economics of the period contribute to the war between the two groups (McPherson, 2003). Considering the complexity of the issued involved it is best to start with a bit of historical backgrounds to lay down the foundations for understanding the causes.

The foremost of American legal the Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United s, founder of the Harvard Law School, an overseer and Professor of Law of Harvard University, a nationalist in principle, Justice Joseph Story was a towering figure in the American legal history. His contribution and role in the history of American law is stupendous. Justice Story was born in an aristocratic family in the state of Massachusetts. Having graduated from Harvard in 1798, he was admitted to the Bar in 1801 (Weiss, 2004). He was largely self-educated and was second in the class at Harvard.

French and Indian War The American Revolution has reflected desire of colonists to leave from under the despotism of the British crown. They have accused the king that it has violated their rights as English citizens. For the different reasons many colonists have kept fidelity to a crown; them began to be named as loyalists, or torry. And they were not lonely: Englishmen could find to themselves allies in New Land, and such allies became American Indian tribes. Basically kind attitudes with Indians have remained from the old contracts, concluded more than hundred years back. These allies were the present soldiers and at the certain stages have rendered the real help in struggle against rebels.

Did the Treaty of Versailles make World War II inevitable? The Treaty of Versailles continues to be regarded to this day by scholars and laymen alike as a highly vindictive and humiliating peace agreement, imposed on a protesting, helpless and a weakened German nation. Assigning complete responsibility for the war on German actions alone is found to be incorrect by historians. Its punitive economic terms coupled with extensive territorial losses, especially in the East, only served to arouse in the German people an enduring bitterness against the Treaty and a fierce sense of nationalism that paved the way for National Socialism (Nazi) and for the outbreak of a second major war within 20 years.

Western Civilization History is full of events that have helped to shape the lives of those who lived in later years. Much debate has been given to how the world might have been different had the Greeks maintained mastery of the world rather than the Romans, for instance. In identifying three key events that have helped to shape Western civilization, it seems clear that the human rights and equality experienced by today’s generation, while not perfect, has been brought about by a long series of events that pulled society one step closer to what we know today. Beginning with the Age of Discovery, when practices of domination and oppression were becoming formalized, the American Revolution established the possibility that a group of individuals, working for the common good, might bring about tremendous change and inspired an entire generation in the 1960s to work for a better life for their own children

?The Fall of the Chinese Ming Dynasty China continues to bear echoes of its past despite traveling fast with the incredible pace of change. China has been defined differently during different periods of time depending on the greatness of its leaders, the peacefulness of succession, the dealings with foreign incursions and the suppression of peasant rebellions. The second stage of the Chinese high civilization took place during the Ming Dynasty. Signs of crisis brewed when early industrialization gave way to full industrialization. During and after the fall of the Ming dynasty to the Manchu’s in the third quarter of the 17th century, the attitude and behavior of the Chinese meritocracy towards the native Chinese ruling class moved forward to a crisis in civilization
