The 1880s proved to be a time of change for America. High unemployment rates and low wages in many cities forced many to look to new opportunities in cities and elsewhere. This included the newly expanded west. In the 1880s Kansas had three dominating groups- railroad companies, farmers, and cowboys. All three dealt with individual triumphs and struggles when developing the West and specifically Kansas in the later part of the 19th century. Railroads spent most of the 1880s concerned with previous legislation, farmers worried about land allotment and surviving on the Plains. Cowboys also worried about land allotment and surviving. The worries of the last two created some tension between them but in the end survival of one depended on the
This takes us to the necessity of speaking about the collision of the north and south interest in the Kansas territory. Decades before the outbreak of the civil war thousands of Indians were pushed to go to the northwest by the white settlers who expanded west ward after the American Revolution. After that, during the Jacksonian era, other Indian tribes of different backgrounds were obliged by force to abandon their mother lands Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Missouri in order to move to the Indian Territory Kansas. These events forced the encounter of whites with red Indians who established a very strategic trade of fur making the Kawsmouth

Curley's wife's death is presented through irony; a structural choice that Shakespeare also uses to build up Lady Macbeth's death. Curley's wife's constant require for attention, and some could even say self-obsession was her downfall, which resulted in her death. After Lennie began to forcefully play around with her hair, Curley's wife repeatedly told him to not ‘'muss it up'' (mess it up), but Lennie didn't know much and ended up accidently killing her. This is significant as Curley's wife's physical appearance was everything to her and, maybe, if she just allowed Lennie to play with her hair for a while, after all, she did give him permission to stroke it, and not been so bothered about it being messed up a bit; then maybe she would have still been alive for the

America has had a bloody rise to the great nation it is today, and that continuous battle has forged it into a strong nation that has been a shining star for many years. The greatest war in American history was, without a doubt, the Civil War. It cost more than 600,000 lives on both sides, ultimately spilling American blood no matter who won how many battles. But before all of this, another fight was carrying on. It was fought for nearly identical reasons, only on a smaller scale. The Bleeding Kansas was a fight over the decision to make Kansas a slave state or a free state. It was brought about by the Nebraska-Kansas Act, put forth by Senator Stephan A. Douglas.

Macbeth is a courageous war general who receives a prophecy from the mysterious three witches that he will someday become the King of Scotland. Although skeptical at first, Macbeth knows better than to question the witches. He lets this prophecy over take him and with the encouragement from his wife, Lady Macbeth, they murder King Duncan and become engulfed with both regret and insanity. This insanity leads to Macbeth unnecessarily murdering other citizens in order to “secure” his throne. At the start of this play, Macbeth and Lady Macbeth are polar opposites, as Macbeth is self-aware of his actions while Lady Macbeth refuses to worry about her consequences. However by the end, their feelings of guilt completely switch. In Macbeth, Shakespeare uses the story of these murders to portray the effects that Macbeth’s diminishing guilt will have on his relationships. Macbeth’s lack of guilt will destroy his relationship with Lady Macbeth, alter Macduff’s feelings towards him, and overtake his own actions.

First I want to give a brief introduction of the war. World War I (WWI), which also known as the Great War and the First War, was happened since 28 July 1914, and ended on 11 November 1918. As one of the most destructive war in European history, many countries from different continents joined the war. They composed two opposing sides, the Allies (British, France and Russia) and the Central Powers (Germany, Italy and Austrian). Later American, Japan and some other countries joined, and most of them against the Central Powers (and later Italy also joined the allies). The war lasted for 4 years, and about “9 million combatants and 7 million civilians died” during that period. From this huge number we can see how cruel the war is. (1)
