.... with poorer economic systems. Nations like England will have to merge their high currency rate with country's such as Italy, whom are infamous for their treasured currency the Lira. No one likes to get the short end of a stick - Why should these countries give up some of their prosperity to help others? Sure it will be quite an honourable effort but greed is an undisputable human characteristic (and we are talking about the merger of former economic rivals now in full cooperation!) Ultimately, these countries concerned with their own interests in mind will disregard the treaty. For example, during the last several weeks in defiance of the treaty Britain l .....

Instead of paying for the cars with cash, people could now use credit to purchase items. Since most families didn’t have the money, they would buy the car with credit and pay off the debt later. The thirties was a bad time for the automotive industry. By now Ford had made a Model-A and had three new colors: tan, purple and black. All of .....

.... actually originated in the Middle East, or more precisely, in ancient Persia. Most people don't know it, but Persia was the center of the world before and during the Greco-Persian Wars (492-449 BC) ("Greco-Persian Wars"). The whole world looked to Persia and everybody tried to model everything after the Persian way. Even Greece copied Persia on some occasions. In fact, Greece, before Alexander the Great, was just a coalition of small kingdoms. Persia, the biggest empire to exist up that time, was the "world power," controlled the way of thinking of the time, and placed a deep mark into not only Greek thinking and culture, but also the "Western" idea .....

.... to withstand the heat of battle and fight as true American heroes. The road to freedom from slavery was a long and hard for the African Americans. In the northern states the Civil War began as a fight against the succession of the Confederate states from the Union. Abraham Lincoln, who was President at this time, wanted to save the nation by bringing the southern states back to the Union, but this “Great Emancipator” ironically did not have much intention of freeing the slaves. His greatest interest lie in preventing a war from occurring. However, even he could not stop the outbreak of the Civil War (Fincher). With the war just beginning, e .....

.... HIS THOUGHT EVOLVED. Chinese philosopher and one of the most influential figures in Chinese history. When you talk about eastern philosophy you can't help but talk about Confucius.
