Guns, Germs, and Steel Why did history take a different course for people of different continents? Although People from different continents originated thousands of years before Europeans, they lacked economic development, Climate disadvantages, and technology grew at a very slow rate. Human inequalities on different continents isn't because of biological differences, it is mainly because of Climate, Location, Technology, and other advantages in development of plants and animals. The continents were either isolated, had no writing, or infected by diseases brought in by Europeans. This caused a huge gap between continental differences and why history turned out the way it did.
The Great Depression abruptly halted Bands progression in the Jazz Age because of the expenses associated with bands, decrease in the demand for live music, and the separation that the draft caused. The Great Depression had a negative impact on the young new era of music by breaking bands apart because of the burden of expenses acquired through travel. In the time of the Jazz Age at its peak of popularity, the tragedy of the Great Depression taunted the genre’s performance. The larger the band was, the harder it was to accommodate the group while paying for food, gas, and medical expenses. Bands traveled around the country to perform which could incur up to $30 in gas per trip.
Just because the dams are 40% it is clearly illogical for residence to be able to use whatever level of water consumption they please. Dams will deplete inevitably. According to the Queensland Chief Water Commissioner Elizabeth Nosworthy, if residence of the East Coast used jus 10 minutes extra water than they need, 150 million liters of water from just 1 dam will be wasted per week. Forcing level 6 water restrictions to be implemented in just a few weeks. “What the
All the Yes points 1.Temperature from history 2.Sea level 3.Weather 4.Because people are losing lives and our climate is changing 5.Many factors involved. All the No points 1.The scale of the problem 2.The need for oil 3.Polar Bears and other species are threatened with extinction 4.Nature will adapt better than we will 5.Kids will have to eat poo Global Warming is not an issue Yes because... No because... Temperature from history If people were able to look at the temperature data for the past 200 years, that data would show that the temperature levels on the planet have always fluctuated. That same data will show that it is human beings who are causing the problem. Pollution
What Killed the Dinosaurs? Off all the many questions related to dinosaurs their disappearance from the earth is the most mysterious of all. Their traces are even found on a few isolated oceanic islands such as Spitsbergen and North Island, New Zealand. Some dinosaur extinction theories postulate that dinosaurs died from the cold while others suggest that beasts died from the heat or else it was too hot in the summer and too cold in the winter. One theory hypothesis is that the climate became too wet while another that the climate dried out to kill off the dinosaurs.
Advancing glaciers would have lowered the temperature of the shallow seas therefore such big changes in temperature would alter the amount of oxygen in the water and meant the end for any species that couldn’t adapt. Research shows that approximately 50% of all species became extinct. The Devonian period was the second mass extinction and is known as the “Age of the fish” It is famous for the thousands of species of fish that developed in the Devonian seas. During the late Devonian period, over 408-360 million years ago, ,saw mass extinction and over a fifth of marine families and more than half of marine genera gradually died out over what may have been a ten-million-year interval. Climate and sea-level changes were the causes of the extinction of many types of corals, trilobites and fish with the sponges and coral most greatly effected.
The article “No Babies” by Russell Shorto discusses how the population in Europe is drastically decreasing because the low birth rate and higher death rate. He discusses how the birth to death rate is very unbalanced as well, which is a result of the declining population. European culture is feared be lost due to the fact that the majority of the European population is mainly made up of older generations and few younger. In the article Population “7 Billion”, Robert Kunzig discusses how the population worldwide is increasing drastically. He discusses that although the population is growing, our planet may not have all the resources it needs to accommodate the growing population.
How far was the impact of World War One the crucial factor in the fall of the Romanovs in February 1917. This essay will argue that the impact of World War One was a very crucial factor in the fall of the Romanovs in February 1917. The events in the Revolutions of 1905 and 1917 also show that Nicolas II was not a good leader and these events led to the fall of the Romanovs. World War One caused many problems for the Government, the army and the people at home. Having a war caused inflation, government spending rose from 4-30 million, taxation increased, and money became practically worthless and the price of food and fuel quadrupled.
It had a decline because their emperor died, the economy fell and Germanic tribes invaded Rome. The Roman Empire declined from Economic and Military reasons. It declined because it ended the Pax Romana period with the death of Marcus Aurelius in 152 AD, who was the emperor that made the Roman Empire reach its peak, which began violence. Aurelius’s son, Commodus, bankrupted treasury in 192 AD and over the next century, Romans began to fight each other. The economy went down because of the rising prices.
It quickly evolved into an international trade port due to its good location. However, for several centuries Brugge had very little written history. This is due to what many historians referred to as the slumber of Brugge good location (Rodenbach). Brugge’s historical 200 year slumber is due to Brugge’s sharp decline in the 16th century. This gradual decrease in power slowly sucked the life out of the city of Brugge until it reached a point of desperation and poorness in the 18th century (Lonely Planet).
