Many years before Jefferson became president, the Barbary states had sent pirates to attack and capture European and American ships, cargo, and sailors.

    However, only using nostalgia and powerful enunciation cannot lead to success alone, for one must already be in a position of society where they have a considerable amount of political power. Napoleon from Animal Farm uses his power to establish his force of elite, unwavering attack dogs, whose purposes are to instill fear in the other animals. In turn, he is able to garner vast amounts of power through intimidation combined with his propaganda. For example, Napoleon eliminates all of his political rivals during a public assembly: “The four pigs waited, trembling…, They were the same four pigs as had protested when Napoleon abolished the Sunday Meetings…. When they had finished their confession, the dogs promptly tore their throats out…,” (Orwell 59).

    For the English government this success meant that they had eliminated their major rival in settling colonies in the new-world. For thirteen colonies, this was a bittersweet time as the war had given them major profits, and the aftermath gave them their own small debt, which was insignificant compared to England’s amount, but nevertheless, they were relieved to be out of the war and back into a peaceful setting, albeit one that was temporarily. The sense of victory would last very shortly, as Britain elected a new Prime Minister, George Grenville, who was given a colossal amount of debt because of the war. The French and Indian war had cost Britain over 129 million pounds, and 4.5 million pounds per year with interest, (due to inflation this was a massive amount at the time equaling 21 billion and 720 million dollars respectively) in soldiers and weaponry, and due to the fact that this was the first time in nearly eighty years that England wasn’t at war with any other countries, they decided to move on into internal affairs, that included taxing. According to Aronson, “…people in England would not stand for any new taxes-they were already the most heavily taxed people in Europe,”, and since Grenville wouldn’t force any new taxes on people who were already paying so much, he decided

    1112 Words  | 5 Pages

    Napoleon Bonaparte has been the topic of historical debates and discussions since the end of his reign in 1815. Historians and scholars alike have analyzed his early years, his rise to power, his military conquests, his political actions during his reign, and his legacy on the modern state of France.
