.... to see the French over turned and eventually live their life solely under British rule. Under the British law they could not recognize the rights of Catholics. Therefore no Roman Catholics could sit on the British Council and have political representation. The governor of Britain, James Murry, although liked by the French forbid any other Roman Catholic churches to be resurrected but promoted the religion of the British, by increasing the amount of Protestant churches built. Another sign of assimilation of the French is the Court of Kings Bench. An English court, by whom the King sentences foreigners that have no defense and can not even speak the English languag ....

.... religion and remained in Puritan "Utopia" -- the exact situation which they had fled from England. Later, it would take the gathering of American thinkers to deduce what liberties were guaranteed and which were not, to avoid mistakes made by puritans and others in history. The Forefathers of the United States conjured up the Bill of Rights which illustrated which rights were endowed to the people of the United States. They adopted the Bill of rights, which was drafted for political motivations, and it evolved into a document which shelters American people's civil liberties. When the Bill of Rights was adopted, political motivations superceded libertarian views. Ja ....

.... to Count Ferencz Nadasdy. II. With her husband away at battle, she became supreme leader of the land, taking full advantage of the role as countess and head. A. While remaining in the castle, she quickly grew bored. She entertained herself by simply torturing her servants and delving into witchcraft. B. She harshly beat her servants constantly and was taught by her new nurse, Darvulia, in the ways of torture and witchcraft. C. Her servants could say nothing about the battering (legally) because they were of lower class than their mistress. III. After years at the castle, she began to realize the one thing she counted on the most, her beauty, began to wane. ....

.... and all-Long Island teams competing in state-wide tournaments. Erving acquired the nickname "the Doctor" while still at Roosevelt High. His teammates would later alter this to "Dr. J." The basketball coach at Roosevelt High, Ray Wilson, introduced young Julius to Coach Jack Leaman of the University of Massachusetts. After high school, Erving entered the university, where Ray Wilson was hired as assistant coach the following year. At Massachusetts, Erving broke freshman records for scoring and rebounding, leading his team through an undefeated season. The next year, he had the second best rebound tally in the country. Over the summer, he joined an NCAA all ....

.... of Holocaust by the fact that discrimination against Jews was acceptable in Germany and few spoke out against it, but that is not a complete answer. We must look instead to the fact that the Nazi general beliefs permeated all things of life in Nazi Germany until there was no one left to protest against Holocaust. At the Nuremberg Trial, where the surviving leaders of the Nazi group were tried for their crimes, two of the witnesses were asked whether Holocaust was an inevitable result of Nazi general beliefs. Otto Ohlendorf, an SS officer who commanded a group which murdered the Jews, thought that Holocaust was not a necessary result of Nazi general beliefs. A few day ....

.... first-rate players who could attract paying crowds. The remarkable undefeatable season of the national touring Cincinnati Red Stockings in 1869 paved the way for baseball’s full-blown professionalization in the 1876 formation of the National League of Professional Base Ball Clubs. Although distinctions between players and their clubs (now really small businesses) had been hardening for years, the National League formalized the division, which has continued until today. Baseball soon outdistanced other spectator sports in popularity and contributed to the sports boom of the 1880s and 1890s. Late nineteenth-century baseball resembled the Gilded Age business world. O ....

.... never had a written policy of expansion. What they had was the idea of "Manifest Destiny." Manifest Destiny was the belief that the United States had the right to expand westward to the Pacific ocean. On the other hand, Mexico was a new country wanting to protect itself from outside powers. Evidence of U.S. expansion is seen with the independence of Texas from Mexico. The strongest evidence of U.S. expansion goals is with the Mexican-American War. From the beginning, the war was conceived as an opportunity for land expansion. Mexico feared the United States expansion goals. During the 16th century, the Spanish began to settle the region. The Spanish had all ....

.... controversy over slavery in the western territories. In January of 1854, Senator Stephen A. Douglas of Illinois introduced a bill dividing the land into two parts: Kansas and Nebraska, and leaving the question of slavery to be decided by settlers. Even though this outraged antislavery people, after five months of debating, the bill was passed. This did not defuse the slavery issue, but split Kansas between the North and South. This helped push the United States closer to the Civil War (Grolier, Kansas-Nebraska Act). Peculiar Institution was an "euphemistic term that southerners used as a pseudonym for slavery"(Dictionary, 241). John C. Calhoun defended the "peculiar labor ....
