The Mauryan Empire was one of the largest empires in history.

If I was a stria I would stay away because;

An online poll showed 81% of people believe Indira Gandhi’s assassination was justified. It was a sunny day in New Delhi, India when the prime minister of India dies. The day was October 31, 1984; she was shot by 2 of her bodyguards named Beant Singh and Satwant Singh. The assassination of Indira Gandhi was unjustified because she went to war for India’s independence and wanted to help the environment; however, some people believe she was making unintelligent decisions for India.

The remains of the city, Nimrud, tell many stories about itself throughout its lifespan. Even though most of the remains left today were destroyed by an Islamic terrorist group, we can still replicate, through the architecture, the lives of the Nimrud people. Through the statues built and the reliefs on the walls we can determine the everyday lives, wars, and divinity that the people of Nimrud lived among.

In an article from The Guardian from August 16, 2015 named “The village where men are banned”, Julie Bindel visits a village named Umoja in northern Kenya that is run by all women. This village has women and children that have come from all types of places that have experienced rape, female genital mutilation, child marriage, and abuse. These women come to Umoja to escape all those terrible things. In Umoja the women receive support and help from other women in the village. The women in this village come here to escape all the great dangers that they experience from men. These rapes are usually happening by British soldiers, the rapist is not being punished and these rapes usually lead to the women being abused by their husbands because of these rapes. The victims of these rapes have gone to report these incidents “However [the RMP] came to the view that every single one of these entries had been forged, even in the strongest cases identified,” said Day (The Guardian) This leads these women to look for somewhere safe to go which they find

When I reflect on the people I know and love, I realize that there is an inherent level of disparity between us. In today’s world, believing in individuality and diversity implies a need for distinctions. In my life, there is one specific person who best illustrates someone different from me: Gurleen Singh. We share dissimilar beliefs, cultures, and interests. However, despite our differences, we have both evolved into more mature people over the course of our year long relationship.

I was truly delighted upon meeting Areesh in my Advanced Placement United States History class last year. Her energy told a great deal about her character; a positive individual who always discerns beyond herself and envisions what the world could be. An ideal trait for a leader, the ability to think beyond confines. She was a joy to have in class, a forthright young woman not afraid to say what was on her mind. Her candidness has led me to learn a great deal about her: Areesh does not shy from challenges, welcomes change, and is open to ideas that perhaps contrast her own.

marrying and becoming a father, Mahavira grew weary of his life and sought religious answers to his unhappiness. He grew significantly interested in a group of wandering ascetics in his village and desired to join in their order. Following the death of his parents, Mahavira turned his back in his wealth, bade farewell to his family, and set off to become a part of the ascetic group. To his despair, Mahavira did not seek answers amongst them and began practicing more strict asceticism. In addition to his belief in extreme asceticism, Mahavira believed one must practice ahimsa, or non-injury to life, in order to release the soul from this life. Thus, he went about his own path.

Indra was a god in the Vedas as a strong warrior/thunder god who was important at the time. He was an example of how leaders should lead their people to win successful battles (Davis 8-9). Because he was in the Vedas he was probably at least somewhat important before they were created.

Roohi Singh is an Economics and Internal Relations Double Major student of Loyola University Chicago. She was born in Stockholm, Sweden but grew up in a half Indian and half American environment. She has been living in China for four months, she explains what she thinks about the color red from her western perspective “The first connection I make between the color red and China is the flag, the main icon of China. Flags. There were many red flags at the Dai Village while I was on the Yunnan excursion.”

Chandragupta was the first emperor of India, after conquering India and becoming the emperor of the Mauryan empire he was known to have been afraid of that he would have been killed as being an important part to the Mauryan Empire so he had some food tasters to make sure that his meals that he had weren’t poisoned, he would almost never leave his palace, Chandragupta would have to sleep in a different bed every night. When Chandragupta would come outside his palace he would have been escorted with his guards next to his sides riding elephants and would have to have been carried in a “jeweled chair”. To make sure that his orders and laws would reach to the smallest of villages he had to create what is known as a bureaucracy, (bureaucracy means

As a Korean-American, I was raised to give thanks before and after a meal. English being my first language, my Korean vocabulary as a child was extremely limited. However, I knew the phrase "Jjalmokgaeseubnida" (translates to "Thank you for the meal") ever since I was able to speak. Every day, my cousins and I would recite the phrase like robots, it was fixed into our daily routine as if the words were physically drilled into our heads. Unfortunately, to the ignorant adolescent I was, "Jjalmokgaeseubnida" was nothing but empty words that I spoke monotonically only to avoid a scolding from my grandma. It also wasn't unusual for me to receive a "mae mae" (or spanking) when I was younger: I often threw out food I didn't want to eat (probably

The Indus Valley was larger than other ancient civilizations including: Mesopotamia, Egypt, and China. Western India and Pakistan are two modern day countries that give us an idea of where the Indus Valley was located. When completing an Indus Valley trading game, it put in perspective the tactics that they would have used for trading purposes. To start off, seals were a major aspect when trading. The clay piece would seal a rope that was tied around a bundle of goods. The people of the Indus valley would put different designs onto the seal; examples of designs they would put onto a seal was a unicorn, bull, bison, elephant, rhino, and even designs of humans. People would not accept packages if the seal was broken, because that meant it had
