Assuming that someone was to just look at the way Mongols ran things socially, they would probably believe that they are more non-barbaric than barbaric. Document seven, as quoted, “War, strife, bodily harm, or murders do not exist, robbers and thieves on a grand scale are not to be found among them.” This argues the opinion that the Mongols were not ruthless or barbarous. As revealed in document ten showed the Mongol laws on adultery, hospitality, drinking, and marriage. It is acquired from this information, that if they were really barbaric, they wouldn’t have laws on such subjects. Cultural aspects show the non-cruelty of the Mongols.
Around 1880 there was another agricultural crisis and there was little available to eat. They couldn't get work elsewhere or cultivate anything themselves, so they emigrated. The last peak was after the Second World War. Things were totally destroyed in the Netherlands. Many people became depressed when they thought about building up everything and they were afraid of another war because Germany was very dangerous and unpredictable at that moment.
In my opinion, I quite agree with him. He also states "People lost their jobs because factories were losing orders". This implies that people in 1848 couldn't even afford food with or without the food prices rising. Therefore, I wouldn't agree on that statement. Many people had signed the petition because they were fighting for their rights.
Many lives were lost in external conflicts as well as internal civil wars. Small pox and lead poisoning in the aqueducts further decimated the population. " To worsen matters, plague from China spread through the empire." (Sherman & Salisbury, 153) Just as in China, the disease caused intense suffering and depleted the already dwindling Roman population. " Medical knowledge was helpless in the face of pandemics like the mid-third-century plague, and Roman families could no longer populate the empire."
Therefore, because people were so undernourished they had many diseases which became epidemics. Many people weren’t having enough vitamin c therefore resulting in them having scurvy, other diseases became epidemics; influenza, small pox and syphilis due to poor living conditions. Also, due to poor conditions the infant mortality rate was high and many children did not make it to their fifteenth birthday while life expectancy for adults was mid-thirties. Poor people died so young because their living conditions were terrible. They lived in their own filth and waste because there were no sewers or drainage to take it away, even when they threw it out of the house it would drain into the nearby rivers.
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.
There are many people who become seriously ill and is so sick that they are about to die. Malik had promised the population to prevent this, but Malik could not heal people. He did not have the medicine needed to heal people. Malik meets a female foreign doctor who has no medicine to the sick, but Malik is being tested to the medical assistants because they are helpless, and people get sick everywhere. Malik becomes frustrated because he can’t help the sick in the village.
This whole system was in fact a disaster, as it led to the Chinese agriculture to be falling down each year with people deciding not to work hard. The communist system is not even working in modern day China anymore. Human instincts and human error are always present, as us humans may be too rash in our decisions and actions for our own goods. China nowadays consists of a huge range between the rich and poor. The example of China strongly demonstrates a false system and it is impossible to create a fair society.
The problem about this was that most Indians growing goods didn’t have enough money to buy the food because of your taxes. As a consequence, many people died of starvation. The country also lost a lot of money because of leaders and wars between them and Great Britain. This cost them. Also, the other negative thing was that British
A government policy of enclosure was implemented, which greatly upset traditional, rural societies. Tenant farmers would now only employ labourers to do short term work on the farms, for jobs such as hedging or ditching. There was now a surplus of labourer due to deflation after the French wars, a population increase alongside a non-agricultural employment decrease, and the development of agricultural machinery. It is easy to see why people protested against this, many men were jobless and unable to feed their families, and the little work there was was sparse and low paid. It was also due to political reasons that people protested during the Swing Riots.
