Medieval 1450: Heroes and Villains of the Middle Ages David George 5/18/2012 Week One Prompts Fall of Rome/Rise of Christianity (Prompt 1) I believe the processes that were involved with the fall of Rome were not just one single event but more of a chain of events that lead to a somewhat declining Rome. Friends of mine even say that Rome never in fact declined or fell but is still alive today. I believe the two most influential factors in the decline were the onset of the plague and the roman economy. First, the Roman economy before its decline was one of the best in the world and was extremely prosperous. It was only growing and doing well though if Rome continued to conquer new territories and expand itself.
372 Facts: AVX Corporation manufactures capacitors for electronic products. Tantalum is an elemental metal, as rare in nature as uranium, used in the manufacture of those products. In January, 2001, AVX entered into a multi-year supply contract with Cabot Corporation, a major supplier of tantalum powder and wire. In the years immediately preceding the contract, the tantalum market favored buyers and AVX purchased it from Cabot at preferable prices without entering binding, long-term contracts. When demand for capacitors and the tantalum used in their manufacture increased dramatically in late 2000, Cabot took advantage of what was then a seller's market to negotiate aggressively a multi-year deal.

The year 476 saw the end of the Roman Empire in the west. Rome had been in a decline since the end of the Pax Romana in 180 A.D. However, Rome did leave behind a legacy that lasted for centuries and the significance of Roman law is still seen in twenty-first century law. More so was the survival of the Christian Religion. Rome had a tremendous impact on the Church, and the results of it form the world over the next millennium.
In earlier times, cathedrals were often built in the Romanesque style. This architecture was more solid and square. However, many cathedrals in later medieval times were Gothic, which was a style of architecture that evolved in the early 1100s and describes the particular church architecture that spread throughout medieval Europe.
Color images in magazines finally gave the average person what royalty and nobility that rich had grew since the start of history: art. The first country that gave access to color magazines on a big scale was the United States. The most interesting part of this American Renaissance is that it will take historians a long time to figure out that something amazing happened between the Industrial Revolution to get mankind into the Modern Age. Only when historians start trying to figure out what went down
In conformity with the Cathedral; the sequence of small mays were substituted by great overview paintings that memorialized the Acts of the Apostles; although the most depicted focus is the Life of the Virgin.

The World War I had brought America to the forefront of the global outlook. The war time excesses in production transformed into prosperity during the next decade which would watch America seek continued isolation despite the mounting global challenges. The Great War and the resulting Versailles Treaty left Europe in a rather deprived and devastated state where the Europeans continued to seek cultural and economic assistance from their cross-Atlantic neighbors. With new job opportunities, progressive ideas, an air of liberalism had developed around the American continent. This openness and jubilance was most evident in the arts, entertainment and economic sectors of the economy.
George Washington enjoyed less than three years of retirement at Mount Vernon, for he died of a throat infection December 14, 1799. Now, in America, George Washington still have a big impact on America today, he became a president to a new country that was not very stabilized.

His belief and devotion towards republicanism made him a great leader and made America into a strong independent nation. Washington also helped create the first bank, which he singed the bill for once it was passed through Congress.
