If you were wondering what the first settlement of Jamestown was like, try and picture a big swampy area with not a lot of resources to use. On top of that, the settlers weren’t too bright themselves. The inhospitable conditions severely challenged the settlers. Jamestown was a swampy area, and furthermore, it was isolated from most potential hunting game such as deer and bears which like to roam over much larger areas. The settlers quickly hunted and killed off all the large and smaller game that was to be found on the tiny peninsula.
It was an acute and highly infectious disease and the fatality rate for this unexposed population was often high. 2.Malnutrition Indigenous people also suffered from malnutrition. They lost the traditional lifestyle and their diets were altered due to the European’s growing settlement. Tress and plants were destroyed,waterways were dirtied, and the large animals escaped. The land was no longer able for them to hunt and gather food and they couldn’t to the new food such as sugar and flour.
By the end of the war Vietnam was incredibly unpopular in the US and had cost the lives of 70,000 men. Vietnamese losses were far higher and spread to the civilian population, but they perceived the losses to be a necessary evil - they were fighting for freedom and independence. The US wasn't. 3. The US failed to understand that they were fighting a guerrilla war.
And to top it all off both of these empires fail for similar reasons. The Han Empire collapsed for reasons such as: undetermined emperors could no longer control powerful warlords, weak emperors let canals and roads fall into disrepair, because of the weak government people started to turn on each other and lose control. But the most important reason for the empire collapsing was because of the economic inequality. Burdened by heavy taxes and crushing debt many peasants revolted destroying the civilization. While this collapse took very little time to happen, the Roman Empire’s decline took about a century to occur.
In order to defend the border and feed the imperial clans the in kind of tax were too heavy for the common people. Lead the Ming government isolated with the masses. Thirdly, and the most fatal crisis must be the lack of responsibility in chongzhen’s personality and the terrible relationship between the last emperor Chongzhen and his ministers, the distance between minister and emperor became far away ,and ultimately none of his ministers would like to work for him anymore and this lead to a famous talk from chongzhen, “My ministers have failed me. As ruler of the country I must die for the altars of the soil and grain. An empire that has lasted 277 years: It is all because of the mistakes of treacherous minister that it has come to this.Alas!’’ So many scholars put forward their opinions answering the reason why Ming Dynasty cannot addressed these crisis and finally collapsed.
In this paper, we will discuss these characteristics and reasons. There are two types of poverty. The two types of poverty are situational and generational poverty (“Urban Ventures”, n.d.). Situational poverty describes poverty that occurs due to a significant change in life status, such as job loss (“Urban Ventures”, n.d.). The difference in situational poverty and generational poverty is that in situational poverty, the people experiencing poverty continue to have hopes that they will recover from the change that occurred (“Urban Ventures”, n.d.).

The Indigenous people were often forced to give up their lands and take the agreement. This agreement has negatively affected the culture of the natives. Even though the natives seem to have good benefits such as having a “reserve” and they are granted with subsidies, this causes problems with the culture the natives have had for hundreds of years. This is because with subsidy the natives Is diverted away from growing food or native responsibilities. To this day the natives still have problems with agreements and treaties and most of all their way of life is impacted hugely by international interactions.
11). For some students, learning and understanding are not their goal of education. They come to class just to get a certificate. This thinking affects students’ behaviour because they only need to finish the assignment or to get the grade. Crawford Kilian writes in her article “Plagiarism for beginners” about this attitude of students: You are in school only to get a non academic job.
It is believed that internal conflict caused the Mayans to question the structure in which they were ruled and as such their society was divided. The destruction of the religious centre of Teotihuacan led Mayans to believe the gods disapproved of their King. The Mayan society depended strongly on the social structure and governance of their king and the collapse of the centre resulted in decrease in production of goods because peasants no longer saw the need to respect the nobility. This facilitated a further decline since the population was growing and the demand for food increase. Therefore the Mayans had more people than food and housing.
