Three reasons why opposing nations should have used collective security is because if Hitler were appeased, then he would continue to imperialise other nations.
This movement was tough on the British and at first they allowed it, but then fought over it. In the end not only was the British not getting money from the Indian salt, but indians did not have to pay for salt produced from their own country. This movement that was started by Gandhi, brought them even closer to gaining their independence
Nixon is widely recognized for his successful détente foreign policy that improved U.S. relations with Russia and China. Despite his achievements, his true motives and methods of achieving success were questionable and harmful. His agenda for Vietnam was hidden from the public, as was his Southern Strategy. He was not truly invested in environmental reform, and proved to be a truly contradictory president. Scholars agree that his public actions and private ideas often opposed each other (“Impact and Legacy”).
One of the biggest ones that occurred was the revolt formed by the kulaks in 1932. Stalin responded by cutting off all supplies to them for two years. This response resulted in the death of over ten million peasants due to famine or execution(Webcache.com(Google Biographies)). This was probably the final act of ruthlessness that set the country straight. Almost no more uprisings occurred during the next part of Stalin’s ruling.

The Federalist party was comprised of Alexander Hamilton, John Jay, James Madison, George Washington, Charles C. Pinckney, DeWitt Clinton and Rufus King the paramount objective set by federalist Members was a fiscally sound and nationalistic government which promoted the system of checks and balances laid out in the US Constitution for the three branches of government. The federalist Party can be perceived as elitist, and its leaders scorned democracy, widespread suffrage, and open elections, however, the acceptance of these notions didn’t escape Ramifications as they lost the support of the general population due to their favoritism of the exclusive class group. The Federalists despite their invalidation etched a lasting legacy in America politics in the form of a strong federal government with a sound financial base and they decisively shaped Supreme Court policy for another three decades through the person of Chief Justice John
Despite the fact that British rule in India during the Imperial period was extremely negative for the Indian people, it ultimately created an improved Indian nation. The British forced the idea of monoculture, were racist, created unfair trade and economic distress. However, they did provide an education system, improved human rights, promoted peace and created a more modern society for the Indian nation. The British rule began in the early 1600’s.
Gandhi was an incredibly influential political and spiritual leader. Despite this he was not flawless and the author George Orwell disagrees with Gandhi's morals in his sainthood. Through various rhetorical strategies and a strong tone, Orwell forms a solid argument against the ideas portrayed by Gandhi. Diction is important to note when understanding how Orwell develops his own position and criticizes Gandhi’s.
Victoria Roth once quoted that “There is power in self-sacrifice.” That if people put aside their differences and work together, they can make the impossible possible. Unfortunately, achieving a true selfless nature is not an easy task as there are countless social norms that must be defied. However, throughout the years it has been proven that when faced with disaster, people abandon their selfish ways and altruistically cooperate. An excellent example of this would be the Kyoto Protocol, the first agreement between nations to commit to country-by-country reductions in greenhouse-gas emissions in order to combat global warming.
As a result all of Kent State’s communications broke down. The shootings caused massive protests, both violent and nonviolent. The protests caused 450 other campuses around the nation to close down.

On May 8th at the University of Mexico, eleven people were bayoneted after trying to confront protesters at the school.
In the 1800’s Thomas Jefferson campaigned on the ethics of Republican belief of a weak central government, and to ensure these beliefs are kept one must rely on the principles of lower taxes, justice, and a lack of governmental restrictions. However, Thomas Jefferson failed to follow the very principles he promised to emanate as he created a government trading restriction known as the Embargo Acts, increased taxes due to the Louisiana Purchase, and followed John Adams ideology in the Alien and Sedition act and tried to have Samuel Chase removed from office on false charges. Thus, Thomas Jefferson failed to keep the philosophy of the Republican party and contradicted his campaign principles through the Embargo Acts, the Louisiana Purchase
On March 5, 1770 a street fight occurred between a mob of Boston citizens and British soldiers. The soldiers were increasingly unwelcome in Boston so the citizens threw snowballs, stones, and sticks at the group of soldiers who had been stationed here- the soldiers retaliated. The citizens were very outnumbered and the fight resulted in five deaths and six injuries from Boston. Samuel Adams and the Sons of Liberty named this event the Boston Massacre. The morning after, John Adams was sitting in his law office when Paul Revere revealed an engraving that showed Thomas Preston (captain of the British soldiers) ordering troops to fire at point blank range on the citizens.
Mike Brown is the modern day Emmitt till, the six little girls burned in the church, and Trayvon Martin combined into one. The events that happened soon after arguably changed the lives of Ferguson citizens forever. Ferguson citizens was justified in their response due to the death of Mike Brown, police brutality, and the results of the indictment. The main cause of the riots that took place in Ferguson is the fact that Mike Brown was brutally gunned down by a white police office while he was unarmed and hands up.
