Native American Empire Vs Aztec Empire

1st was the nobles who were military and government authority. Next were artisans then commoners. At the bottom were the slaves. All classes limited women. Boys were taught religion and battle skills while girls were sometimes educated at home.

Nevertheless, the American government had the power to use the land for their own means and as a result subjugated Natives into Indian reservations. This is an extremely relevant example of colonialism in the form of controlling a population geographically. The paradoxical relationship I derived from Ceremony is the relationship the Native Americans have to the government in times of crisis. When crisis happens, as depicted in Ceremony Native Americans become first class citizens. In other words, they were drafted into a war for a country that stole their land but were expected to be patriotic and ready to die at a moments notice even though they were not accepted into the culture in the first place.

(doc. 6). Then there were those people people that will protect the city, Warriors/Nobles. These people will send there boys to school to get educated. Not educated like us were we have to leanr history, math, english and science, no they had to learn how to hunt, fight, use weapons, and shields.

“The greatest crimes in the world are not committed by people breaking the rules but by people following the rules. It's people who follow orders that drop bombs and massacre villages.” -- Banksy, Wall and Piece. A civilization cannot function without a system of rules to create order and morality. However, the creators of the nameless, collectivist society in Anthem took this concept too far with the complete removal of individualism—the root of ego. This mistake subdued the thoughts and actions of individuals, which is what allows a society to flourish.

The Canadian residential school system as we know it was opened from 1863 until the closing of the last school in 1996 (Miller, 1996). These schools were funded by the government of Canada as well as several different churches such as catholic, Anglican, Prospetarian, and united church, which were created as an assimilation tool as an attempt to systematically integrate indigenous children into European way of life by “killing the Indian” in the child. This paper will briefly go over some contextual information such as what life was like before the Europeans arrived, as well as some history of the residential schools in Canada. It will also look at the intentions of the schools, abuse that took place, and the laws that were in place that allowed abuse to flourish in these types of environments. Finally it will look at the intergenerational effects of the school system that live on until this day.

Some school 's team mascot names have a history behind their name and the term means something distasteful. For example, in the Ute article it states “The Redskins term refers to a time in history when the king of England called for the scalping of Indians as proof of bounty.” Lots of Indigenous people refuse to say the term “Redskins” because it means the same thing as the N-word. This shows that it has a negative nuance for the Native community and it means something atrocious. Finally, there is a lot of racism towards the Indigenous Peoples tribes. First, the Ute article states that, “It is a complete lack of appreciation for cultural diversity.” This is saying that nobody appreciates that there are other cultures or ethnic groups within our society.

The attempt to assimilate the American Indians and the pack from St. Lucy’s into the European-American culture resulted in physical labor. All of the students worked, even though some were around six years old. This is an example of physical labor because they made some of their youngest students work and go to school whether it was healthy or not. There was manual labor, enforced uniformity, and military regimentation. physical labor is being applied in this example because they are being forced to do something most of the Indians wouldn’t choose to do by themselves.

If we look back into our history the Europeans took this land from the Native Americans and pushed them west. Then they forced our ancestors to come work for them with no pay. Not only did they not have pay they were beaten, ridiculed, humiliated, dehumanized, and raped while have to be respectful servants for the White

In 1550, Emporer Charles V summoned a debate to determine how Spain would deal with the Native Americans. Juan Ginés de Sepúlveda and Bartolomé de Las Casas engaged in discourse about this topic: Sepúlveda denigrated the Natives while de Las Casas defended them. Sepúlveda felt that the Native Americans were basically barbaric sub-humans, and that the Europeans were greatly superior to them. He felt that Christianity was far more altruistic than the Natives’ religions. However, Las Casas felt that the Natives should be treated equally, since he believed Jesus died for the Natives just like he died for the Europeans.

However, they were not the most prestigious of the warriors, there were others, such as the Tlacateccatl who were allowed to wear gold, dine in the palace, and even sometimes to stay at the palace. There are some remaining sculptures from this time period, but gold and silver are mainly lost, and therefore the hierarchy seems to be underrepresented, but the codices allow one to peer into the past. The Aztecs warriors, were not only a cornerstone of their country, but figuratively, the foundation that had made the ancient civilization of the Aztecs a

The growing population meant they needed more land and they were very resourceful by using the mountain sides and building terraces that assisted in the irrigation and nutrition to their crops. They made an economy system that included trade of their staple crops and delicacies from their maize to the rich coco bean. This great empire could not be possible without structure. Having created a strict social organization the people were divided as nobles, commoners and slaves. Before we move forward let’s start with the emperor or Huey Tlatcani.

When European nations discovered the vast new world in the western hemisphere, it sparked many unfortunate and unforeseen events that almost lead to the eradication of the people whom already called this “New World” their home. The article, Were American Indians the Victims of Genocide? Guenter Lewy clearly explains how the deaths of the American Indians cannot be classified as genocide since it did not represent the U. S’s goal; however, the intent of genocide did exist amongst certain groups of people. Depending on how it is looked upon, the argument about whether the deaths of the American Indians could be considered genocide all boils down to which group of people did the killings. To be able to grasp and understand if American Indians
