.... The primary cause of the revolution was the disputes over the peoples' differing ideas of reform. Before the beginning of the Revolution, only moderate reforms were wanted by the people. An example of why they wanted this was because of king Louis XIV's actions. At the end of the seventeenth century, King Louis XIV's wars began decreasing the royal finances dramatically. This worsened during the eighteenth century. The use of the money by Louis XIV angered the people and they wanted a new system of government. The writings of the philosophes such as Voltaire and Diderot, were critical of the government. They said that not one official in power was corrupt, but tha ....

.... of unionization process. Norma Rae a loom operator in the weaving room is an outspoken individual and is very out spoken about her poor working conditions such as excessive noise, long hours with short breaks, physical stress from standing for long periods and abnormally high temperatures in the work areas. Added to all this is management¡¦s apathy for the working conditions, as seen when her mother looses her hearing temporarily with little or no sentiment from the company doctor, who knows this is a common problem for the workers. With this setting, the film progresses through most of the stages for employee organization. While management tries to get the workers s ....

.... rich and powerful few could live by the toll and misery of the powerless many. They believed that the capitalist system, too, was flawed and therefore bound to destroy itself like many of the communistic experiments had done years before. It was thought that with the collapse of the capitalism, society would conclude in a political revolution in which the huge number of poor would rebel against their oppressors. The revolution would do away with private ownership of the means of production. Society would be run by and for the people. Marx and Engels expected that this movement would happen in the most highly industrialized nations of Western Europe, the only part of ....

.... the Union. Seven states seceded, but seven states stayed with the Union. These states were called bordering states. The bordering states threatened the Union government by telling them if they would start a war with the seceding states. The bordering states would follow the other seceding states. The states that seceded easily were not only seceding from the Union to keep their slaves, but also to protect their way of life. Because they did not want to change their lifestyles like the North. On February 4, the seceding states met in Montgomery, Alabama. There, they formed the Confederate States of America. They also made Montgomery their capital. They wrote a ....

.... time his full-size Aerodrome plunged into the Potomac River, the two bicycle builders from Dayton, Ohio were busy experimenting with gliders. Wilbur and Orville Wright had first becomed interested in flying machines as children when their father brought home a whirling toy . Fascinated, they wound up the rubber band on the cork and paper toy to watch it fly again and again. They built and flew their own versions. "Throughout their lives, the brothers experimented with mechanical things Wilbur would come up with the ideas and Orville would analyse and implement them." (McMahon 23). The two brothers opened a shop in 1896 to build and repair bicycles. The same year, Otto ....

.... the slaves along the way were the conductors. So that is basically how it got its name because it was related to a train and the purpose of the system was to get you from one place to another. The "Liberty Line" was another for the system. Help was given to the slaves from one transfer place to another ensuring the slaves journey to be safely executed. Once a slave reached their final destination, Canada or New England they would still have to keep quiet about how they reached the north without being discovered. The people that were most into helping slaves escape by means of the railroad were northern abolitionists and other anti-slavery groups who disliked what was going ....

.... the patient with constantly repeated, "You will begin to write your concerto... The concerto will be of excellent quality..." He did write the concerto, dedicating it to Dahl, and it is indeed of excellent quality, a judgment audiences have been making since it was played by the composer for the first time on October 27, 1901. It immediately took its place as one of the quintessential romantic showpieces for piano and orchestra, and this in spite of the fact that the solo is often sonically buried in unyielding orchestral textures. There are, to be sure, virtuosic flights aplenty for the piano, and lyrical ones, too, but the work is hardly all the pianist’s show. The ....

.... of it being a slave or free state could debate the situation and work out a decision that they all agreed on. Even though this would take a long period of time all the population would be happy with the decision. The 36-30 degree parallel was unfair because that was the only land up for slavery. What if someone wanted to move above the 36-30 degree parallel? Would they have to leave their slaves behind and hire workers? Also the federal government just marked off land that slaves could be in. Slaves are considered property and you can take property anywhere. That is unfair because then they would have to leaves all their slaves behind. Lastly people needed slaves to tend t ....
