Upon entering the bay in early August of 1610, the ship spent the next three months examining and mapping the eastern shore of the bay, but found no passageway to Asia. During the ship's explorations, it eventually became stuck in ice in early November and forced the crew ashore. During the rough winter, supplies and provisions were scarce, and discontent became rife amongst crew members. Once the ice melted and the ship was free, Hudson planned to continue his voyage to further explore the Hudson Bay in search of a passage but the majority of the crew adamantly
How did william gain control of England and wales by 1100? When Edward the Confessor died in 1066, he left a disputed succession. The throne was seized by his leading aristocrat, Harold Godwinson, who was rapidly crowned. Almost immediately, Harold faced two invasions - one from the king of Norway, Harald Hardrada, who was supported by Harold Godwinson's brother Tostig, and the other from William, Duke of Normandy. Harold defeated the Norwegian invasion at the Battle of Stamford Bridge in September 1066, but he was defeated and killed shortly afterwards at the Battle of Hastings, on 14 October in the same year.
No mention was made of the rebels' grievances. Kett and the rebels refused, but still hoped Edward would come to their aid. However, the city authorities in Norwich now stopped their supply of food. July 22 - Kett's rebels attacked and occupied Norwich. July 31 - Sir William Parr leads 1,500 foreign mercenary soldiers against the rebels, but is forced to withdraw to Cambridge.
I believe that the Norman’s trick was the main reason for their victory. In advance of the Battle of Hastings, Harold had been in another battle with the Norwegians (King Harald Hardrada and his army) and had therefore lost lots of soldiers in that battle. Having heard of the invasion of the Normans in the south very shortly afterwards, Harold rushed down south, collecting random peasants in an attempt to complete his army to its former quantity as he journeyed down the country. Because of his loss of soldiers, only 2000 out of the 7000 soldiers in his army were actually well trained, whereas William had 7000 soldiers who were all well trained. In addition, the Norman army consisted of a whole range of different occupations such as foot-soldiers, archers and cavalry wearing chain-mail armour – another thing Harold was without.
This expedition headed northwest to the Hopi villages, which they recorded as Tusayan. Upon arrival, the Spanish were denied entrance to the village they came across, and once again resorted to using force to enter. Afterwards, the remaining villages dared to fight the Spanish, but held a meeting and decided not to. Materially, the Hopi region was just as poor as the Zuni, but the Spanish did find out that a large river (the Colorado) lay in the
Also, Isabella of France would have been ten years old at the time Wallace was executed, so she could never have conceived his child prince Edward, or have had an affair with him at all. In addition Robert the Bruce didn’t betray Wallace at the Battle of Falkirk, and in fact, wasn’t at the Battle at all. Robert the Bruce often switched alliances between the Scottish and British, but only for political reasons, and never actually betrayed Wallace. Secondly, the aspect of clothing and cosmetics are mainly inaccurate. During Wallace’s time period, people did not wear belted plaid, or kilts of any kind as shown in the film, this did not occur until centuries later, and even then, not in the style shown.
In most cases people were not buried when they died, and they were almost never buried if they were killed in war. With England being at constant warfare, there was no time for the spread of new ideas, and the economy, along with education, came to a halt. Children were taken out of school to practice for battle and the adults
In the first year, Greenpeace went to confront the sealer but didn't spray the seals with dye to make their fur worthless. However, Paul Watson was ignorant not for the group to do anything. The following year, he came back and was determined to stop the slaughters. Paul threw a sealer's knife in the water and chained himself to the piles of fur so that the sealers wouldn't be able to get to the fur. Furthermore, Paul was thrown into the water by the sealers and later kicked out of Greenpeace because he had used violence, which was a rule not to use force.
Columbus enslaved the people, demanded every adult Taino to bring gold to him every three months, and forced Christianity. When the Tiano people came back empty-handed with no gold, Columbus would cut off their hands. There was not much gold at all because they were not in Asia, they were in America. Columbus believed they were in Asia searching for the land of gold, but was never in India or Japan or China. Columbus never stopped searching for gold even when they grew hungry and sick.
Enili became very angry at the other gods when he saw the boat. Enili asked the other gods if the mortals escaped because no mortals were suppose to have survived the destruction. Ninurta smarted off that Ea did it and he Ea knew everything and makes his own rules. Ea asked Enlil how he could so senselessly bring down the flood. Then he told Enlil that he didn’t tell Utnaplishtim of the flood, he learnt of it in a dream.
