Certainly these changes were massive, quite abrupt and differed drastically from the norm; however that does not necessarily make them bad. Except, that is how they are viewed by many historians today. The historian N.Reeves believes Akhenaten was unsuccessful, but more in his religion reforms. 'For ordinary folk, there is little doubt that Akhenaten's actions as king over time inflicted the greatest misery: the people were confused by the man's religious vision, frightened by the ruthless manner in which it was imposed and quite likely appalled by his personal behaviour.' Reeves believe that the changes would have confusing and scary for the common people.
3) Account for the successes and failures of democracy in Germany in the period 1918/1933 The Weimer Republic was doomed to failure from the outset. The quote from historian and journalist Sefton Delmar “Germany democracy was born with a hole in its heart”, has immense accuracy when post-war Germany is evaluated. The creation of a completely new and foreign form of government aggravated Germany’s post war position. Struggling with political, economic and social strife by the end of WWI, did not allow for a powerful government to be formed. The crucial weakness of the Weimer republic lay not in the strength of its enemies but in the striking absence of its friends.
Other then the fact that the British had an awful tactic, they did not have the right weaponry. Haig was a strong believer in Calvary, and was skeptical of the newer machinery. When the British walked across no mans land the Germans just mowed them down with their machine guns. At the end of this battle there was 400 000
A reader with even slight knowledge of the Holocaust or of Nazi Germany, would understand that sciences practiced during the Holocaust on prisoners was inhumane and as a whole un-scientific. The fact that some of the same procedures used in a time of moral darkness, were being used in America, is unnerving. The idea that Nazis were eugenically sterilizing thousands of people for the same reasons as Americans should unsettle the reader, making them uncomfortable to condone this behavior. The text “Carrie Buck’s Daughter” by Stephen Jay Gould is a successful persuasive text because Gould uses allusions, intellectual language, comparisons, sarcasm and statistics to provoke the reader’s thoughts and make them want to agree with
This made the Romans prone to injuries and “because they have no armor, think about running and not fighting” (Document B). Because of the loss of troops from the loss of armour, the Roman army’s numbers diminished. No soldiers were drafted since many groups were exempted from joining the army. This lessened the defences and security of Rome, and Rome became weaker. Another primary reason of Rome’s decline was a series of foreign invasions.
APUSH, Period 5 13 November 2013 Consanguinity (DBQ #2) The relationships and interactions between the Native Americans and the English were very complex and delicate. Often times they started out very friendly but over time they changed to very hostile and aggressive relations. The English wanted land and resources and the Natives wanted their land back. When these two forces met with a conflict there was almost always death and bloodshed. Due to the excessive amount of conflicts, it was inevitable not to have battles, peace agreements, and to this day Native Americans are not pleased with Caucasian people.
Shell shock was a term only associated with World War one due to the major impact it had throughout the war. It was specifically used in Britain to express a psychological breakdown for a soldier from stress and trauma and fear from battles and fighting. It was hard to cure them as people and doctors considered them to be cowards therefore refused to offer help. Some men only received help depending on their high class or rank in the community, while others were even put on trial and even executed for being ‘cowards’. Shell shock caused a lot of problems and casualties for the country and for the war.
Britain was not prepared to act alone, so the League eventually did nothing. Poland kept Vilna. This was a bad decision made: the League failed to act. A meeting of the Council should have happened and fair decisions made taking into account the perspectives of the two countries. This was the worst of the League’s actions in the 1920s.
This turned many London doctors away. The Royal Society refused to publish his findings. Many vaccinators were not trained or qualified. They often had to carry out the procedure several times before it worked. Some cut too deep into the skin, making the child bleed a lot.
The death toll was often very high in the missions because of the new dieses the Aboriginal people were opened up to. They had not been introduced to these dieses before so therefore were not immune to
