in Egypt) of a military dictatorship was in power which continued for fifteen years. The success of the Brumaire can be accounted for by many factors, the disillusionment with the Directory, the luck and characteristics of Napoleon himself, the French Revolution and the state of France in 1799, Lucien Bonaparte and the Ancients. The dissatisfaction with the Directory was a contributing factor to the success of the coup de Brumaire. The Directory was set up after the French Revolution in 1795 to restore order after the uprising. Unfortunately, it was not long before the Directory began to abuse its power, the Directory was dependent on the army, and many believed that the Directory was unable to fend for itself but relied on other people for example the army.
However, most people looked badly upon religions outside of their own. One of the most close-minded settlements in America was New England, this was both a good and a bad thing as it brought the settlers closer together, but also pushed outsiders away. The Middle Colonies accepted many more churches, as there was a greater amount of ethnic and religious diversity. This shows the importance of religion by highlighting how it brought people with common religions together to form colonies and gave incentive to people who lived in England to immigrate to America for more religious freedom than they previously had. Colonists were provided with even more reason to practice their religion and continue their work in America for a better, more liberated life.
New conquests extended its domain well into central Europe and throughout the Arab portion of the old Islamic caliphate, and a new amalgam of political, religious, social, and economic organizations and traditions was institutionalized and developed into a living, working whole. The Empire, sadly, would begin a slow decline into the cesspool of third world countries. One of the primary causes blamed for the fall of the Ottoman Empire was the decline of the Sultanate. Originally the Sultanate was a strong institution, in which the Sultan would select a competent successor from among his often numerous sons. This weakening began late in the reign of Suleyman the Magnificent.
Niki D. Patel Dr. T. Whigham/ Roberto Arguedas HIST 2221 15 November 2011 Miguel Hidalgo: Madman or Visionary “Long live Independence. Long live America. Long live Our Lady of Guadalupe. Death to bad government” (Noll, 76). These words, the Cry of Dolores, incited a revolution for change in New Spain in the early decade of the 1800s.Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla, called the Father of Mexico, spoke these words on September 16, 1810 in front of a group of what seemed like random men, but were in fact banded together for want of freedom from the peninsulars or pure blooded Spanish born in Spain.
Who were the major players in the Spanish Civil War and how did they affect its course and outcome? For the first time in Spain’s history, 1931 marked the year that changed the country into an orderly democratic republic. The exile of King Alfonso XIII in 1931 because of the loss in support from the Spanish people only highlighted that the monarchy was doomed. Therefore, the Second Spanish Republic ruled from 1931 until 1937 and was under the dictatorship of Primo de Rivera whose main aims was to modernize Spain through liberal, democratic means. Although, the development of change already faced opposition from right-winged supporters, including rich landowners who feared social changes that the Republic would try to implement.
This forced Henry to take an aggressive stance against France, and led to the invasion of France in 1492, which he led an army of 26,000 men, into Calais, proceded to the Port of Boulogne and then land to siege to it . Consequently, due to Henry’s poor finances, the maintanace of this was brutal, therefore decreasing his
How far was the Pilgrimage of Grace in 1536 a threat to Henry VIII? The Pilgrimage of Grace in 1536 was the largest rebellion of the Tudor Period. Rebels rose across the North of England, rebelling against change to their traditional way of life and worship. By 10th October, Robert Aske, a Yorkshire lawyer had become chief captain of an army of thirty thousand. The rebels made their headquarters in York before moving down to Pontefract on 21st October where Lord Darcy handed over Pontefract Castle; the most important fortress in the North.
On the other side, the Safavids were slightly tolerant. When the Isma’il came into power, he named Shi’a Islam as the religion of hid empire- with this it caused many wars, but change the path of the empire, affecting what we now know as Iran forever. With that, it’s safe to say that all of them enjoyed conquering new states, though not necessarily for the same reason. The Ottoman Empire was mainly interested in conquering, just to spread Islam. Their religion was their inspiration, whereas the other had less of the incentive.
The Duties of the Caliphs were well organized and up front which Helped Islam become strong and well established (Doc E). The duties of these leaders were to define the meaning of faith, serve as a judge, guard the lands of Islam, and to wage war on anyone who misjudged the faith or did not believe. Many people who had been under control from the Byzantines and Persians saw this as a new way out and took it, After the battle at al-Yarmuk the Byzantine followers decided that they liked the Islam rule better than their own and decided to switch religions because of this new political
The native people accepted Islam for many reasons and thus allowed leaders to imply new rules, regulations, and standards into society. My belief is that the government used Islam as a way to manipulate the people into accepting things without revolts, but the people probably saw it is a great religious reform. Islam, although seeming to unify during this time, has often caused problems in the present regarding religious rivalries and terrorist groups. The introduction of Islam in Africa created social, religious, and technological advances such as the creation of Swahili, the conversion of thousands of people and the building of mosques. Although some parts of Africa remained untouched by Islam, many others were often advanced in society.
