Tecumseh Biography Tecumseh was a Native American leader of the Shawnee. Tecumseh worked to unite other Indian tribes to against white expansion into the west in the early 1800s, and he was also became a hero figure in American Indian and Canadian history. Tecumseh was born in March, 1768 on the Scioto River, near Chillicothe, Ohio. He was the second son of Pucksinwah, the Shawnee warrior who was killed in the Battle of Point Pleasant. With the last aspiration of his father, he was trained to be a warrior and never made peace with the whites.
The Removal Act stated that the United States Government had the right to forcefully move the Native Americans to different lands as long as they compensated them for the land that they had to give up in the east. The US Government did not give the Native Americans any say regarding their move. Once the Removal Act signed into place they had to follow it. The move negatively impacted on the tribes’ health, their population and their way of living. Out of about 15,000 Cherokee that were forcefully moved to the West, about 4,000 died on the road there.
For example, the Greeks believed it was wrong to eat the dead, whereas the Callatians believed it was right. Therefore, one cannot say that eating the dead is morally right or wrong. It is based on matters of opinions that vary from different cultures. Rachel’s first argument, one cannot criticize any other cultural practices, one would disagree and reply; other cultural practices believe one’s life is not a problem. However, that is morally wrong because taking away one’s life is in nature’s hand, not by any human force.
Furthermore it is unclear whether it was meant to be a mutiny, aiming to overthrow the British or simply a rebellion that occurred due to opportunistic timing. Personally I believe that although the Mutiny had a large impact, it never posed a serious threat as the sepoys had neither the organization nor the equipment to defeat the EIC troops. I also think that the mutiny had no real aims for independence but was aggression born from built up resentment towards the British. Firstly it was made clear in the reaction of the British that they were much better equipped than the rebelling sepoys. The British reacted violently; using cannons to literally blow rebels apart as well as firing squads and hanging mutineers.
The League did nothing except protest against Germany’s past aggressive behavior and Japan and Mussolini’s invasion. All this caused Hitler to be more confident that nothing will happen if they were to invade Poland. Britain and France were also at fault for appeasing Germany. When Germany had started its rearmament and invaded Czechoslovakia, they did nothing as they wanted to appease Hitler as they believe they were not strong enough to defeat Hitler and they fear setting economic embargo on Germany would affect their own economy as they have not recovered from World War 1 and the Great Depression. Hitler was a gambler rather than a planner.
He states “So far as I can tell, nothing follows about whether we should fear death” (Feldman 141). Throughout his argument, he does not touch on whether we should “fear” anything. He instead targets A4 intending to disprove Epicurus’ notion of the word “bad”. He does this with the intention to prove that death while might not be an object of fear, is still something bad and evil. His own argument can be broken down: P1: Something is extrinsically bad for a person if and only if he or she would have been intrinsically better off if it had not taken place.
An example of these was the non importation movement. In this movement, Americans stopped buying goods from the British goods as a protest against stamp tax. This action was not defiant in nature and did not call for punishment from the British government. On the contrary, it put a lot of pressure on the government and forced it to react by repealing the stamp act (Greene & Pole, 2004). Violent reactions were, therefore, not effective as they received violent reaction from the government and did not bring the desired change to the colonists.
In 1838, the US army forced the Cherokees from their homelands in the Trail of Tears into Indian Territory. As people moved west and Western Movement pushed on, more and more Indians were removed and eventually they were nearly annihilated from America. Western Movement is often given the stereotype by Americans as a glorious expansion of our brilliant country into the lands of the setting sun. But, this vision is not true. American expansion caused more harm than good.
He said atheism" is the ideology of 'the death of man.' Just because one does not believe in God why would you want to remove what they believe in? Atheistic are not trying to remove God from people they just feel there is not enough evidence to show God exists. The second alternative to
Another Major flaw was that “the country, whose president, Woodrow Wilson, had dreamt up the idea of the League - America -, refused to join it.” The league’s most powerful militaries Britain and France not only suffered casualties, but also economically as they were greatly in debt to the United States. Because of this neither country was enthusiastic to get involved in disputes that did not affect Western Europe. Therefore the League had no military might and could only enforce economic sanctions in hope that they worked against aggressive nations. All these flaws point to signs that the League of Nations was a failure. However, even though there were a few setbacks, the league was a success in many ways.
