By the general public there are many misconceptions of the customs, beliefs, ideas and goals of Muslims. There has also been an increase in anti-Islamic sentiment and Islam phobia since the September 11, 2001 attack on U.S. Although there are many misconceptions, Islam followers continue to having their inter religion differences, and strive to stay truthful and faithful to their Muslim roots in the modern world. Hall, Livingston, Brown, and Mohabir define Islam as “submission and peace to God.” (2011 pg. 205).
In Europe the Catholic Church was the greatest power, but many who did not approve of the churches ways were forced to either move or stay silent. Knowing that in the new world men could follow any religion, people moved to escape the powers of the church, and this is possibly the main push factor that brought people to the new world.

The idea of coming to America not only gave them hopes for a new beginning but for many was their own chance at survival. With failing crops and illness threatening the land families were unable to pay their rent and keep a roof over their head. Others were having their land taken from them because of the religious wars going on in the country and had no where else to go.
What caused Catholic anger up to 1968? Coupled with old grievances such as the Potato Famine, there were many incidents that raised Catholic anger towards the rest of Ireland. Catholics, especially in Northern Ireland, were constantly discriminated to the rest of the population, which were Protestant. No matter where the Catholics went, they were always singled out in one way or another and could be considered as not being able to live their lives to their fullest. This statement, naturally would anger any Catholic, especially if they were relentlessly worried about not being able to get a job or a house for their family.
If the Tsar could successfully win the war, he would be able to maintain the support and trust from his people, but unfortunately the Tsar let his people down again. To win the war the Tsar needed to have strong and loyal soldiers, however, the morale of the soldiers was low because over one million soldiers were killed, wounded or taken prisoner by the end of 1914. The army were losing rapidly and there was no evidence of improvement. To make matters worse the soldiers were treated badly on their own side. They were not given shoes and equipment so many men were fighting without guns or shoes, they didn’t have wagons or horses and not even first aid treatment for wounds.
