In 1848, he and his family emigrated to Pennsylvania, where worked as a bobbin boy in a textile factory. He worked his way up the ranks, eventually becoming a telegraph operator. With the help of his mentor, Thomas A. Scott of the Pennsylvania Railroad, he was appointed a superintendent of military transportation and director of telegraph communications for the US government during the Civil War. At the end of the war, Carnegie resigned from the Pennsylvania Railroad company, having begun a career as an investor and speculator. During the depression of 1873, he invested heavily in steel, and was able to raise the quality of steel while reducing its price by using technological innovations such as the Bessemer process. Gradually, he created a vertical monopoly in the steel industry by obtaining control over every level involved in steel production, from raw materials, transportation and manufacturing to distribution and finance. By 1897, he controlled almost the entire steel industry in the United States. In 1901, Carnegie Steel merged with US Steel to become the largest company in existence at the time. He left the firm that same year, and devoted the rest of his life to philanthropic efforts.

Title: Pacific NW Native Americans Headings: Pacific NW Native Americans Pacific NW Native Americans Content: Pacific NW Native Americans Tweet Pacific NW Native Americans It is estimated that 250,000 Native Americans were living along the coast of the Pacific Northwest. The area had a temperate climate, waters rich in fish and interiors full of small animals that could be hunted. With plenty of readily available food as well as an endless supply of wood the residents of the area built large sturdy homes. The tribes of the area are also known for creating beautiful totems with intricate carvings and pictures that were used to tell the story of the clan. The natives often wore necklaces which symbolized the wealth of the wearer. They also created beautiful baskets and even hats which were important in the rainy Pacific Northwest. The Natives believed that they were all connected to the world of the supernatural that surrounded them. The Shaman or medicine man was the bridge to that world. Most of the celebrations held by Native Americans of the area were called Potlatch- which comes from the word to give. Families would spend months planning a Potlatch.

Title: Inflation in the 60's Headings: Inflation in the 60's Inflation in the 60's Content: While industrial production continued to rise and unemployment continued to fall, the economy came under severe pressure. The rapidly increasing general price level was unpopular, and eroded the incomes of the elderly and other Americans living on fixed incomes. High inflation also discouraged people from saving money, and increased the pressure on the dollar, which was already in a precarious position because of its role in the international monetary system. An increase in the demand for loans for defense contractors led the Federal Reserve to raise the discount rate from 4 to 4.5%. The major disruption to the delicate balance achieved in the first half of the decade was the war in Vietnam. In July of 1965, President Johnson committed American forces to Vietnam. Wars generally bring about inflation, but the unrelieved financial demands of the war became a serious burden on the economy. The Defense Department estimated U.S. expenditures in support of obligations in Southeast Asia as $103 million in 1965, $5.8 billion in 1966, $20.1 billion in 1967, $26.5 billion in 1968, and $28.8 billion in 1969. Johnson did not want to consider it an all-out war, so he was reluctant to request that Congress pass a tax to finance the war. For two years, he held back, thus blowing a growing hole in the federal budget.

Johnson's desire to maintain the Great Society domestic programs while fighting the war in Vietnam contributed further to federal debt. The production requirements which the war effort necessitated also pushed the economy beyond the careful constraints the Council of Economic Advisors had suggested to promote non-inflationary growth. By 1966, the government wage and price controls were breaking down. This, combined with rising interest rates signaled the end of non-taxationary solutions to control inflation. After an economically painful 1966, Johnson was forced to overcome his resistance to taxes.

On January 10, 1967, in his State of the Union Address, Johnson said, "I recommend to the Congress a surcharge of 6 percent on both corporate and individual income taxes—to last for 2 years or for so long as the unusual expenditures associated with our efforts in Vietnam continue." Congress did not pass the tax until 1968, at which point the legislation levying a tax also required a reduction in government expenditures. On June 28, 1968, Johnson signed the Revenue and Expenditure Control Act into law, with its $10 billion tax increase and a $6 billion spending reduction. Many Great Society supporters were concerned that the spending reduction would threaten domestic social programs. Nevertheless, Congress was unable to cut the full $6 billion from the budget, and the fiscal 1969 budget ended up with a $3.2 billion surplus and intact Great Society programs.

Along with the American failures in Vietnam, the inflation of the late 1960s was a major factor in the breakdown of the Johnson Administration. Beyond its actual economic effects, it contributed to a general discontent with Johnson and his policies. In addition, the "Great Inflation" proved difficult to eradicate, continuing to plague the American economy into the 1970s, and defying control until 1982.

Title: Overview of the Economy of the 60's Headings: Overview of the Economy of the 60's Overview of the Economy of the 60's Content: Environmental and consumer interests were increasingly taken into consideration. As the nation strove to achieve these goals, the economy suffered from their negative effects. Large-scale government spending and the constraints of the international monetary system resulted in domestic inflation. As the government struggled to slow inflation and stabilize the economy, the Vietnam War and the War on Poverty raged on. One war was hopelessly lost, and the other was only partially won. Optimism disintegrated as the dollar lost stability and inflation took a firm hold. By the end of the 1960s, the economy was very different from its state at the beginning of the decade. Growth was slowing, inflation was rising, and the dollar was in poor shape. Nevertheless, there were positive changes in the economy. The United States had obtained greater access to trade with foreign nations.

Title: Poverty in the Sixties Headings: Poverty in the Sixties Content: Another criticism is that potentially helpful poverty solutions proposed by economists, such as Milton Friedman's proposal for a negative income tax, were not included. The major explanation for the persistence of poverty in the face of the Great Society, however, was the effect of U.S. involvement in Vietnam. Military spending diverted funds that might have been used to mount a powerful assault against poverty. In addition, the inflationary effects of the war placed greater pressure on the entire nation, including the poor. Although starvation and other extreme symptoms had been severely reduced, poverty was still a major problem in the United States by the end of the 1960s. Subsequent attempts to eradicate poverty or at least reduce its severity would be haunted by the ambivalent victory in the War on Poverty. Johnson's dream of a "great society" would remain largely a dream.

The requirements of the war effort strained the nation's production capacities, leading to imbalances in the industrial sector. Factories that would have been producing consumer goods were being used to make items from the military, causing controversy over the government's handling of economic policy. In addition, the government's military spending caused several problems for the American economy. The funds were going overseas, which contributed to an imbalance in the balance of payments and a weak dollar, since no corresponding funds were returning to the country. In addition, military expenditures, combined with domestic social spending, created budget deficits which fueled inflation. Anti-war sentiments and dissatisfaction with government further eroded consumer confidence. Interest rates rose, restricting the amount of capital available for businesses and consumers. Despite the success of many Kennedy and Johnson economic policies, the Vietnam War was a important factor in bringing down the American economy from the growth and affluence of the early 1960s to the economic crises of the 19

In general, the conquest displayed the impact of European exploration on the New World and the outcomes of the Age of Exploration . At the time of contact both the Aztec and the Spanish were powerful and wealthy societies. Both were building their own empires, yet were unknown to each other. As such, many view the conquest as the clash of two societies and ways of life. The Aztec Empire was a powerful collection of city-states in what is today modern-day Mexico. It began as an alliance of three city-states, known as the Aztec Triple Alliance, which included: Tenochtitlan , Texcoco, and Tlacopan. These city-states ruled the area in and around the Mexico Valley from 1428 until they were defeated by the Spanish in 1521 as part of the Spanish conquest. During the period of the Spanish conquest of the Aztec Empire, it was ruled by Moctezuma II.

More specifically, European imperialism in Africa unfolded as a series of major events that resulted in the major European powers taking control over large sections of Africa. Each of these major events had an impact on Africa in both the past and still today. As well, historians have identified both the positive and negative impacts of European imperialism in Africa.​ ​ EUROPEAN IMPERIALISM IN AFRICA OVERVIEW The Scramble for Africa was a major historical event that saw the major European powers of the 19th century carry about competing campaigns to colonize Africa as quickly as possible. More specifically, the ‘Scramble for Africa’ is the term that historians use to refer to the expansion of European empires into Africa. It is referred to as a ‘scramble’ due to the way in which the European nations raced to capture territory to expand to their empires. The Scramble for Africa is considered to have occurred from approximately 1870 until the outbreak of World War I in 1914. During these years, almost all of Africa came under the control of the major European powers, including: Britain, France, Germany, Belgium, Italy, Portugal and Spain. The Scramble for Africa unfolded as a series of major events that eventually saw the African continent colonized and then divided by the major European powers.

In fact, there were several main positive outcomes from the period. First, the main European powers (Britain, France, Spain, Portugal, Germany, Belgium, etc.) that imperialized Africa established colonies to benefit their own economies in Europe. As such, European imperialism in Africa was beneficial for the European nations in that it helped grow their national economies.

For instance, the European people of the 19th century were ethnocentric and did not value the customs or traditions of the other groups of people that they encountered during the Age of Imperialism. For example, European colonists and settlers expressed a view of racial superiority over other groups. As such, European beliefs about their own supposed racial superiority helped inform their interactions with the people they encountered, including native Africans. The term that best relates to this concept is ‘ethnocentrism’, which is the concept of judging other cultures based upon the views of your own. Further to this idea is the concept of ‘eurocentrism’. Eurocentrism is similar to ethnocentrism but focuses specifically on Europeans and the views of superiority expressed in relation to the timeframe of imperialism. These Eurocentric beliefs were justified by European governments due to a concept called Social Darwinism. In short, Social Darwinism is the idea that some ethnic groups or races are superior to others and therefore more ‘fit’ to rule over those that are less ‘fit’.​ Together, these ethnocentric views by the major European powers of the time meant that European settlers in Africa generally suppressed native African traditions, customs and languages. For instance, while the European nations sometimes established schools and hospitals in their African colonies, these schools emphasized European culture over African culture.

European Christian missionaries were a common feature of the Scramble for Africa in the late 19th century. For instance, famous British missionary David Livingstone carried out early missions to Africa in the hopes of converting African leaders. The spread of Christianity in Africa undermined African religions at the time, and caused many African people to begin to look to the European colonial governments as the authority instead of their own traditional leaders.​ As stated above, African societies also faced economic impacts from European imperialism in the 19th century.

This focus on taking valuable resources out of Africa benefitted the European home countries greatly, but stalled or harmed the economies of the African societies. As such, this robbed the African people of developing the resources for themselves.​ Finally, European imperialism in Africa negatively affected the African societies in terrible and devastating ways. For instance, Leopold II of Belgium famously brutalized the people of the Congo throughout his command over the Congo Free State.

Click here to read a more detailed article about the nature of European rule in Africa during the Age of Imperialism.​ ​ IMPACTS OF IMPERIALISM IN AFRICA Historians have identified both positive and negative impacts from the period of European imperialism in Africa. In fact, there were several main positive outcomes from the period. First, the main European powers (Britain, France, Spain, Portugal, Germany, Belgium, etc.) that imperialized Africa established colonies to benefit their own economies in Europe. As such, European imperialism in Africa was beneficial for the European nations in that it helped grow their national economies. This was done by extracting important natural resources out of Africa and using them to benefit European companies and governments.

Title: Invention of the Telephone - History Crunch - History Articles, Summaries, Biographies, Resources and More Headings: INVENTION OF THE TELEPHONE INVENTION OF THE TELEPHONE CITE THIS ARTICLE INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION RESOURCES Content: Alexander Graham Bell Infographic (Click to Enlarge) Alexander Graham Bell Telephone Patent Drawing (1876) Alexander Graham Bell Throughout the 1860s and 1870s, Bell carried out numerous experiments all centered around human speech and the use of technology to carry human made sounds long distances. For instance, in 1875 he developed a receiver that could turn electricity into sound. Called ‘acoustic telegraphy’, the device allowed voice-like sounds to be heard across wires. While, not yet delivering clear voices across the wires, the device proved to Bell that the technology was viable. Bell quickly raced to get the acoustic telegraph patented in 1875. In the meantime, he continued to experiment and quickly worked to develop the first working telephone. At the time, there was intense competition with other inventors, who were working on similar technology. For example, American engineer Elisha Gray had developed a prototype of a telephone model in 1876. In fact, some historians suggest that Gray should be credited with developing the first telephone. Others even accuse Bell of stealing the basic design elements of his own telephone design from Gray.

Title: Invention of the Telephone - History Crunch - History Articles, Summaries, Biographies, Resources and More Headings: INVENTION OF THE TELEPHONE INVENTION OF THE TELEPHONE CITE THIS ARTICLE INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION RESOURCES Content: Regardless, Alexander Graham Bell obtained the credit for the invention because he was the first to secure the patent in 1876. In fact, on March 10th in 1876, three days after his patent was issued, Bell performed a successful test of his then current telephone design. The test involved Bell stating “Mr. Watson—Come here—I want to see you” in reference to Thomas Watson, an assistant to Bell at the time. Following this initial test of his design, Bell carried out a more extensive test on his family farm near Branford, Canada on August 3rd, 1876. He had run a wire crudely along fences and telegraph posts over a stretch of about five miles (eight kilometers) from Brantford to his home. When setup, Bell was able to hear people on the other end of the line in Brantford. The test proved the ability of his telephone design to carry voices over long distances. Following these tests, Bell worked hard to improve and perfect his telephone and the technology behind it. In fact, the Bell Telephone Company was created in 1877, and it made Bell and his investors incredibly wealthy. The company continued developing the telephone and installed wires all across the United States.

In fact, through a series of different mergers the original Bell Telephone Company eventually became the American Telephone and Telegraph Company (AT&T) in 1885. These mergers gave the company access to more lines and allowed people to made long-distance phone calls. For example, Bell made the first transcontinental telephone call in January of 1915. He made the call from AT&T office New York City and called his assistant, Thomas Watson, in San Francisco, California. ​ His invention of the telephone made Bell a wealthy man.

TRADE TRIANGLE As stated above, the Middle Passage was a major route of the Trade Triangle . The Trade Triangle is the term used by historians to refer to the form of trade that occurred across the Atlantic Ocean during much of the Age of Exploration and the years that followed. In general, it was a set of three routes that saw goods and people travel between Europe, Africa and the Americas. European traders exported manufactured goods (metal tools, textiles, tobacco, beads, etc.) to the societies of west coast Africa in exchange for African slaves. The European goods were manufactured in European factories and shops. Next, the African slaves were put aboard European slave ships and taken to the Americas to be sold for huge profits. Here the slaves would be put to work on plantations in order to harvest raw materials. The final stage of the Trade Triangle involved European traders taking the harvested raw materials from the plantations back to Europe where they were processed into goods in European factories.

As well, the German army was not allowed to develop any tanks. Germany was not allowed to have an air force and was limited to have no submarines and just six ships in its navy. The German was made to demilitarize its territory that bordered France to the west. ( Rhineland) Germany was made to accept the 'War Guilt Clause' which meant that it was to accept blame for World War I. Germany was forbidden from uniting with Austria.

As stated above, Germany was forced to pay reparations as a term of the Treaty of Versailles. Simply put, reparations are a form of war debt, that Germany was made to pay to the Allied nations. This was because Germany was blamed for starting the war, and as such was made to pay for the damages to the Allied nations. In actuality, France received most of the reparation payments, since most of the fighting of World War I occurred in the area of northern France. As Germany struggled to pay for its reparations, it printed off more of the German Mark which devalued the currency and led to hyperinflation. Hyperinflation is when a currency (money) loses its value very quickly.

When Constantine decided to move the capital to the old city of Byzantium — a strategic and lucrative position — to found Constantinople, the western parts of the Empire were the furthest from the economic stability and defensive power of the leaders of Rome; easy picking for the barbarians beyond the borders. This depicts the Empire’s territories at its height in the second century AD. Its downfall followed just a few centuries later; the sheer size of it a contibuting factor to its collapse. The splitting of the Empire and the loss of the West was the end of what many see as Ancient Rome, as the Eastern Empire developed the old traditions were left behind and a new entity emerged, the Byzantine Empire — a nation that would last another 1000 years.

Peter Curry 16 Oct 2018 HISTORYHIT.TV A new online only channel for history lovers Sign Me Up World War One was one of the bloodiest conflicts in mankind’s history, and saw over 16 million military deaths. When combined, the total number of civilian and military casualties (dead and wounded) is normally estimated at around 37 million people. Out of combat deaths, two out of three soldiers died in battle, while others died due to infections or disease. It is difficult to estimate the total number of deaths, as civilian mortality was not well documented. Consequently civilian deaths are “hazardous to estimate” according to Michael Clodfelter, who maintains that “the generally accepted figure of noncombatant deaths is 6.5 million.” Even the estimates for the number of military deaths are somewhat erratic, and we will never know the true total for the amount of deaths during the war.

Isabel Sobowale Crumbling dynasties and religious extremism A change of fortune – again The Prince Brutally realistic perceptions of power The perfect leader Necessary evils Machiavelli in our time Content: Machiavelli used Cesare Borgia, Duke of Valentinois, as an example. However, he argued that leaders must take care to avoid inspiring unnecessary hatred. Cruelty should not be an ongoing means to oppress the people, but an initial action that ensures obedience. He wrote, “If you must injure a man, make your injury so severe that you need not fear his revenge”. Any cruelty must be to wholly demolish the opposition and deter others from acting similarly, otherwise the action is futile and may even incur revengeful acts. Machiavelli in our time Joseph Stalin epitomised the ‘New Prince’, who Machiavelli described, somehow unifying love and fear whilst simultaneously pursuing his ambitious political plan for Russia. Ruthless in his conduct, moderate estimates suggest that he was directly responsible for the death of 40 million people. Indisputably, Joseph Stalin terrorised Russian civilians in an almost unprecedented manner. Banner of Stalin in Budapest in 1949. He systematically eliminated all opposition, crushing anyone who threatened the stability of his regime.

He systematically eliminated all opposition, crushing anyone who threatened the stability of his regime. His random “purges” and constant stream of executions ensured that civilians were far too weak and afraid to oppose any significant threat. Even his own men were terrified of him, as exemplified by the reluctance of those working in his dacha to enter his office, following his death. Nevertheless, despite his tyrannical behaviour, the majority of Russians were wholly loyal to him; whether due to incredible propaganda or his military triumphs over Nazi Germany many Russians truly rallied around the despotic leader. Therefore, as a leader, Stalin was a Machiavellian miracle.

Bust of Gaius Marius whose military reforms contributed to the remarkable success of the Roman armies. The Roman legionary’s loyalty to and trust of military structures was enormous. Loyal men follow orders. Rome’s military was supremely adaptable, quickly changing to the challenge in front of it, but here are three tactics that stood the test of time. 1. The testudo It’s easy to see where the “tortoise” formation got its name. Their uniquely large scuta, as the Romans’ shields were called, allowed them to present a 360-degree wall of wood to opponents. Dan finds out what's going on with recent excavations at Vindolanda, one of the largest Roman forts near Hadrian's Wall. All manner of discoveries have been made, including the largest collection of Roman footwear found anywhere in the world.

The most powerful khanate was the Mongol Yuan dynasty in China (1271-1368), established by Genghis Khan’s grandson Kublai Khan (1260–1294). The empire broke apart in the 14th century, when the four khanates all succumbed to destructive dynastic disputes and the armies of their rivals. By becoming part of the sedentary societies they had previously conquered, the Mongols lost not only their cultural identity but also their military prowess.

It has been estimated that a total of around 40 million deaths can be attributed to Genghis Khan’s wars. However the exact number is unknown – partly because the Mongols themselves deliberately propagated their vicious image. Tags:

Caesar’s rule helped turn Rome from a republic into an empire 2. Caesar expanded Rome’s territories 3. Emperors were to become god-like figures 4. He introduced Britain to the world and to history 5. Caesar’s historical influence is greatly increased by his own writings 6. Caesar’s example has inspired leaders to try to emulate him Content: Watch Now Sulla before him had also had strong individual powers, but Caesar’s appointment as Dictator for life made him an emperor in all but name. His own chosen successor, Octavian, his great nephew, was to become Augustus, the first Roman Emperor. 2. Caesar expanded Rome’s territories The rich lands of Gaul were a huge and valuable asset for the Empire. By stabilising the territories under imperial control and giving rights to new Romans he set the conditions for later expansion that would make Rome one of history’s great empires. 3. Emperors were to become god-like figures Temple of Caesar. Caesar was the first Roman to be granted divine status by the state. This honour was to be granted to many Roman Emperors, who could be proclaimed gods on their death and did what they could to link themselves to their great predecessors in life. This personal cult made the power of institutions like the Senate much less important – if a man could win public popularity and demand the loyalty of the military he could become Emperor.

There was money to be made for the legionaries over and above their salaries if their warlords were successful Content: The Republic suffered defeat after defeat, some catastrophic. Panic gripped Rome, with the phrase terror cimbricus being used to describe the mood of the people. Then in 107 BC a saviour emerged. This was Gaius Marius, elected consul for the first time that year, the first of seven times he held the office. He surveyed the debris of Rome’s military response to the crisis and concluded that the main issue was the organisation of the legions themselves. He felt them too unwieldy for this new kind of warfare, fighting hoards of ‘barbarians’ marauding across the countryside in their many thousands. He therefore resolved to turn each individual legion into a self-contained fighting force, with little or no supply train. In that way they could manoeuvre at a strategic level more quickly than their opponents, bringing them to battle on the best terms.

In the first instance he standardised the legionary on the gladius and pilum -armed armed principes and hastati of the Polybian legions, with the spear-armed triarii and javelin-armed velites disappearing entirely. From that point all of the fighting men in a legion were simply called legionaries, numbering 4,800 out of a total 6,000 men in each legion. The remaining 1,200 troopers were support personnel. These carried out a wide variety of roles, ranging from engineering to administration, which enabled the legion to function autonomously.

Title: Why did the English want colonies? - History Is Fun Headings: Why did the English want colonies? Why did the English want colonies? Content: One of these ways was to invest in colonies. At the same time these Englishmen were looking for ways to invest their wealth, others were not so fortunate. The small farmers, who for generations had rented their small plots of land from large landowners, lost their farms and their jobs when the land was enclosed with fences to raise sheep. Men, women and children were uprooted and drifted from the countryside to towns and cities looking for work. Many were reduced to begging or to stealing to survive. Migrating to a new world seemed a hopeful choice for many of these people, as it did for English leaders who saw colonies as a way to solve the problem of the growing numbers of displaced and poor people. Employments of Englishmen, Theodor de Bry England also looked at the settlement of colonies as a way of fulfilling its desire to sell more goods and resources to other countries than it bought. If colonies could send raw materials, such as lumber, from the abundance of natural resources available in the colonies, then England would not have to buy these from other countries. At the same time, the colonists could be a market for England’s manufactured goods. The English knew that establishing colonies was an expensive and risky business.

Yet it had been the capital of the state for over a thousand years, and it might have seemed unthinkable to suggest that the capital be moved to a different location. Nevertheless, he identified the site of Byzantium as the right place: a place where an emperor could sit, readily defended, with easy access to the Danube or the Euphrates frontiers, his court supplied from the rich gardens and sophisticated workshops of Roman Asia, his treasuries filled by the wealthiest provinces of the Empire.

Although it did have senators, they held the title clarus, not clarissimus, like those of Rome. It also lacked the panoply of other administrative offices regulating the food supply, police, statues, temples, sewers, aqueducts, or other public works. The new programme of building was carried out in great haste: Columns, marbles, doors, and tiles were taken wholesale from the temples of the Empire and moved to the new city.

Title: War Hysteria & the Persecution of German-Americans Headings: The WWI Home Front: War Hysteria & the Persecution of German-Americans The WWI Home Front: War Hysteria & the Persecution of German-Americans Content: A second large wave of German immigration started around 1830 and climaxed around 1854. By 1875, Germany had become a wheat importing country. German farmers became superfluous and immigrated to the U.S. , and German craftsmen, artisans, and shopkeepers whose livelihood depended on them followed. From 1881-1892, approximately 1,700,000 Germans arrived in America. Some had fled to avoid compulsory military service in Germany, now forged into a new nation by Otto von Bismarck. By the outbreak of WWI, a majority of these German immigrants prospered in America. They farmed in the Midwest, but also became urban workers. Despite American stereotypes of German-Americans, they were actually very diverse. Some Germans assimilated quickly. Others, like German Catholics and Lutherans, believed that the preservation of their faith depended on maintaining German language and culture.

The Marshall Plan in the Cold War was a strategy to turn former WW2 enemies into allies by rebuilding their shattered economies. One of the enduring myths of early Cold War history involves the so-called Marshall Plan laid out by Secretary of State George Marshall in 1947. With Western Europe in economic ruin, some American policymakers suggested that massive injections of aid were necessary in order to jump-start those economies. An anti-Communist rationale was also offered for the program: Since Communism was thought to thrive amid conditions of poverty and despair, economic recovery in Western Europe would undercut whatever attraction Communist propaganda might hold there. Loading... Loading... The Marshall Plan in the Cold War The fact is that this program worked no better than any other government giveaway program. France, Germany, and Italy began their economic recoveries before any Marshall aid was disbursed. Austria and Greece, which received sizable amounts of Marshall aid per capita, began to recover only as it was being phased out. Britain received twice the Marshall aid that Germany did, yet British economic growth lagged far behind Germany’s over the next decade. West Germany’s postwar economic recovery was so explosive, in fact, that the Germans actually coined a word—Wirtschaftwünder—to describe it.

Achievements of the New Deal Two New Deals Cite This Article Content: He held true to his promise, and the new domestic programs that were enacted in the U.S. between 1933 and 1938 formed part of what people started to refer to as the “New Deal.” These programs included executive decisions made by President Roosevelt and the laws that Congress passed in the time. The ultimate goal was what sholars call the three “Rs”: Relief for the suffering, Recovery from a bad economy and a Reform that will prevent a crash like this to happen ever again. Achievements of the New Deal Job Creation – By 1933, one in four Americans were jobless. Through the New Deal, a couple of government agencies were created that gave work to thousands of people and made the government the largest employer in the U.S. Work meant regular income, which was very important for struggling families. Public Works – Another form of job creation was the establishment of better public works, such as city halls, theaters, homes, airports, parks, highways and bridges. Upliftment – The New Deal brought a sense of belonging and hope and inspired people to help reshape the public sphere.

Title: Causes of French Revolution, French Revolution Causes, Economic Crisis in France Headings: Causes of French Revolution Causes of French Revolution Estates of Realm Influence of the Enlightenment on the French Revolution Tennis Court Oath Content: in 1756 the French fought with the Americans against British. This caused the government run low on money at a time when prices were high. This contributed to the overall causes leading up to the revolution because it outraged the peasants to be so burdened that they could not afford to eat. On top of that they had failed crops which further increased the price of the essential commodities. All this lead to unrest and food riots. In 1700, the price of essential things increased so much that the wages of the workers could not match with the price of the commodities. So the families could not afford food and other basic necessities with such low incomes. This is long term causes which lead to French revolution as there was a lot of discontentment among the masses. In 1787-88, the harvests were very bad due to very severe cold winters. Thousands of people suffered because there was not enough food.

Title: Are Abortion and Crime Rates Related? [UPDATED] Headings: Does Abortion Reduce Crime? Does Abortion Reduce Crime? Donohue and Levitt’s 2001 Study Counterevidence from Lott and Whitley Donohue and Levitt’s 2019 Study A Moral Argument Negative Effects of Abortion on Society Final Thoughts Endnotes Content: Instead, the number of crimes committed by older people dropped first. Nearly 60% of the decline in murder since 1990 involved killers aged 25 and older—who were born before Roe v. Wade.5 Other nations with high abortion rates had a large increase in crime about 18 years after legalizing abortion, as Murray found. For example, in Great Britain, which legalized abortion in 1968, violent crime rose steeply from about 1985 to 2000―exactly when it should have been declining, according to the Donohue‑Levitt thesis. However, in the past 20 years, the incidents of violent crime have begun declining. Additionally, Russia, which has the highest abortion rate on earth—then and now—experienced a tidal wave of every kind of violent crime following the breakup of the Soviet Union. This is a trend that has, since 2000, begun to decline. Teen murder rates were higher for teens born after the legalization of abortion . Statistics show that the murder rate in 1993 for 14- to 17-year-olds in the US (born in the years 1975‑1979, which had very high abortion rates) was 3.6 times higher than that of kids who were the same age in 1984 (who were born in the pre‑legalization years of 1966‑1970). According to a Child Trends report, as of 2017, homicides declined in the 1990s, but then began to fluctuate over the next 20 years, though never getting as high as the 80’s rate. As of 2017, it was 8.7 per 100,000.

Instead, it increased more than 500% from 1984 to 1993. 6 Crime rates rose when abortion rates were constant. If abortion reduces crime, the crime rate should have been relatively stable during the time period 1980 to 1991.

Researchers believed that the huge increase in violent crime that peaked in 1991 and then began to decline was more closely related to the crack epidemic, not abortion. The Donohue‑Levitt study confirms that the crime rate rose and fell exactly where crack cocaine was most easily available―in the large cities and among young black males. 6 Donohue and Levitt’s 2019 Study In May 2019, Donohue and Levitt reexamined data from their first paper and published a working paper entitled “ The Impact of Legalized Abortion on Crime over the Last Two Decades .”

Donohue and Levitt’s 2001 Study Counterevidence from Lott and Whitley Donohue and Levitt’s 2019 Study A Moral Argument Negative Effects of Abortion on Society Final Thoughts Endnotes Content: According to data reported by the FBI in 2019: “ The violent crime rate fell 49% between 1993 and 2019, with large decreases in the rates of robbery (-68%), murder/non-negligent manslaughter (–47%) and aggravated assault (–43%) … [while] property crime rate fell 55%, with big declines in the rates of burglary (–69%), motor vehicle theft (–64%) and larceny/theft (–49%).” Obviously, crime rates vary from city to city and from state to state. The population density and economic conditions of individual cities play a huge role in crime rate. But can it be said that this decline is due to decriminalized abortion? According to a report published by the Guttmacher Institute in 2019, abortion rates during the period of 2011-2017 have fallen. During this time period, abortions fell by 196,000. This decrease likely has multiple factors, including tougher abortion restrictions, clinic closures, and the expansion of pro-life pregnancy care resources. Critics of both the 2001 Donohue-Levitt study and the 2019 paper remind people that correlation does not equal causation. They cite other reasons—such as the war on drugs, a stronger economy, a tougher police force, and gentrification—that could all contribute to the decrease in the national crime rate.

Prevent Anemia Find more pig-care advice in these articles: Content: Control Parasites Our pigs live outdoors and are moved to new land on a regular basis, so parasites aren’t typically a problem for us. However, if your pig will be in one spot for long periods of time, you should consider administering a dewormer. Consult a vet for advice. 6. Prevent Anemia Some vets recommend iron shots to prevent anemia in piglets, but these can result in diarrhea and other side effects. Some farmers choose to forgo the shot, instead putting some dirt in the piglets pen to allow them to root around and obtain iron from the dirt. Goat’s milk has the most highly available iron uptake of animal milks; however, it’s still not adequate, so we use the dirt method on our farm. Other practices common in large-scale pig operations include docking tails, clipping needle teeth and castrating boars. These are areas you might want to research further to see if they make sense for your farm.

Title: Americans Think All Network News Channels Lean Liberal, Poll Finds | Hollywood Reporter Headings: Americans Think All Network News Channels Lean Liberal, Poll Finds Americans Think All Network News Channels Lean Liberal, Poll Finds Also: Some 66 percent of U.S. adults think cable news is full of "unnecessary" filler segments, a THR/Morning Consult survey shows. Content: As for cable news outlets, 53 percent of Americans think CNN is credible while 52 percent think the same of Fox News. Some 46 percent of respondents replied that they found MSNBC to be credible. Asked whether "the pressure to fill time leads to unnecessary segments on cable news," about 66 percent of Americans replied that they did think there was a lot of filler on 24/7 news networks. ( So far this year, in the 9 pm ET/6 pm PT time slot, Fox News' Hannity tops cable news with 3.12 million average viewers, while MSNBC's The Rachel Maddow Show follows with 3.06 million and CNN's Chris Cuomo Prime Time trails at 1.29 million.) The THR /Morning Consult survey also looked at Americans' perceptions of news outlets' political leanings. Among the 11 national news outlets in the survey, respondents thought only one of these brands, Fox News, leaned "more conservative" than liberal. Network news channels like ABC, CBS and NBC, which strive toward impartiality in their reporting, were perceived by a significant margin to be "more liberal" in their political lean than neutral. Sinclair adds, "Outside of their local news, Republicans find Fox News the most credible out of all mainstream media outlets and CNN the least credible. In contrast, Democrats are most likely to find Fox News least credible and CNN and the three major networks (ABC, CBS, NBC) most credible." And when national newspapers do label their reporting as "opinion," more Americans, about 49 percent, trust the conservative-leaning Wall Street Journal 's op-ed page more than the columns and editorials from The New York Times or The Washington Post .

A tape measure and utility knife are the tools for this. For a patch where you are fitting into a cut out you want to size the piece 1/8" to 1/4" smaller than the hole you are filling. Get your measurements for the piece first. If you want use that old carpenter rule, measure twice, cut once. To begin your cut you score the paper on the face side of the drywall. For a piece that is close to four feet wide you want to cut clear across the four foot dimension of the drywall. After you have done that you break the piece back and cut the paper on the back side. Repeat this step to size the piece the other way. Keeping cuts straight when using a utility knife to cut drywall can be challenging.

Content: For example, if your house has built-in bookshelves, you should leave those shelves for the buyer. The same is true of any fireplaces, bathroom fixtures and kitchen fixtures. You should also leave behind wall-to-wall carpeting and other flooring, hardware such as doorknobs and drawer pulls, light fixtures and any security systems or alarms, such as carbon monoxide monitors and smoke alarms. Items outside of the home should also be left behind if they are in the ground. For example, unless you specifically state that you are taking these, any bushes, trees and other in-ground plants should be left with the house. What Can Stay: Certain Appliances and Furnishings You don’t have to leave behind your refrigerator or other purchased appliances, such as the washer and dryer or dishwasher, but a lot of sellers do. Buyers sometimes anticipate that the appliances will stay, so if you do plan to take your refrigerator or washer and dryer, it’s a good idea to put that in writing before closing so that you and the buyer are on the same page. Not sure what the best move is? Read this for more appliance advice.
