The introduction of cattle and horses specifically provided transportation and mobility in warfare in addition to hides and meat. In addition to the environment, European settlement transformed the economies and societies of the Americas profoundly. The introduction of Christian institutions and European government authority disrupted the traditional Amerindian cultural and political processes, destroying them, or at best suppressing them. The European impact also was intensely economic. By focusing efforts on either the extraction of mineral wealth or the production of cash crops, the Amerindian economic system was completely changed to suit the needs and demands of the European settlers.
Bartering had been common in medieval times which show how people resorted to previous looked down upon activities. Pensioners on fixed incomes suffered as pensions became worthless. Restaurants did not print menus as by the time food arrives…the price had gone up! The poor became even poorer and the winter of 1923 meant that many lived in freezing conditions burning furniture, or in some cases, banknotes, to get some heat. The group that suffered a great deal - proportional to their income - was the middle class.
Why Europe? Anan Patel 12/16/13 The Europeans were the first people to explore and conquer the rest of the world. But, before they explored the world the Chinese had started this voyage project also, but they eventually receded from this because they were looking to focus more on domestic matters (DOC 2, 3, 4, and 5). The reason why Europe succeeded and the others didn’t because Europe already had advantages in society because of the plant and animal domestication, also they had enough competition between the different European countries to go out on voyages to look for more (DOC 1, 6, 7, 9) . On the other hand, the other countries weren’t able to succeed because they conquered by Europeans or their population died out from diseases or plagues (DOC 4, 5, 8).
This increase in power made many countries and governments hungry for more power and would do anything to find it. The only thing that stood between Europe and the East were the Muslims. Europeans had been searching for a cheaper and easier route to the East for quite some time but when Marco Polo came back from his almost twenty year journey to China, their desire to find this new route became even more intense. Marco Polo brought back with him tales of luxurious items like rose-tinted pearls and golden pagodas. they realized more than ever that they needed to find this new route to the East.
How effective were the Liberal social reforms in the period 1906 to 1914? In the early Twentieth Century poverty in Britain was a very serious issue.

The Virginian colonists’ adaption to the new world of America was no easy feat and was certainly full of obstacles. The colonists’ initial goals of gold and glory were tossed away and replace by a single goal, to survive. However with inspirational leadership and large amounts of luck the colonists survived and thrived. During the 16th and 17th centuries England had gone through some great economic changes. Some of which included a high demand of wool which put many people, mostly farmers out of a job.
High birth rates and heavy immigration bespoke easily available land, widely distributed among the farming population. The colonists' dispersion and ethnic diversity helped produce the fragmentation and political instability that became pronounced as populations spread westward after the French and Indian War (known in Britain as the Seven Years' War). The easy availability of land weakened American elites; lacking the ability to live off rents, gentlemen also lacked a secure economic and political base. The southern colonies had stable aristocracies, based on slave ownership; but even the greatest planters lived in fear of slave rebellions. Nor did colonial institutions create stability: governments were small, poor, unbureaucratized, and lacked permanent constabularies; neither a unified market economy nor a
The mix of immigrant and different ethnicity working together created what makes Hawaii so diverse and unique today.

At the time the economy of Hawaii was bombing from the profit of goods from the plantations, with the increase of profit they need more workers to work. Plantations would grow rapidly and to speed up the process of harvesting crops and good, with the low amount of people on Hawaii the plantation owner sought for new workers that would work for lower pay, this lead them to go for foreigners. When Hawaiian plantations began to increase, there was a dyer need in labor force needed to be imported.

In 1588, England defeats Spanish Armada. England seized hold of the Spaniard’s new world domain. They also started their colonization and immigration because of England overpopulated and agricultural goods need.
Main causes of French revolution were poverty, hunger and malnutrition. Bad weather caused poor harvest for several years, and the French government did not help people. Immediately before the French revolution bread riots broke out. The reasons for differences of American and French revolutions were the leaders. In America, most of the leaders were, wealthy bourgeoisie, who owned vast manors and incredible wealth, so they were concerned about their wealth and their place in the society, they had much to
