It was 2045 and world war III had been in play for almost five years now. It was the Islamic state, between the two subdivisions in Islam, Sunna and Shia Muslims. It was a gruesome war, filled with millions of innocent young lives being killed and even more destruction throughout the Middle East. Disputes between the two Muslim states due to religious conflicts have inflamed this war. We now head over to a small town located in Canada called Pickering, that’s where I lived along with my family of five. I worked as an aerospace engineer, but had been laid off just two years ago. Ever since then I had been working on my project, which was a time machine, I had always had the passion to help others and make a positive impact on this world. I …show more content…
I set the dial back to the year 604 common era to a location in Saudi Arabia. I said goodbye to this world hoping I’d be back soon bringing peace and good will to this corrupt modern day society. I pushed the dial and off I went, tingling sensations and lost thoughts flew all around me but just two minutes later I had finally arrived. It took me a few minutes to finally open my eyes due to the astonishing bright light, there was nothing to be seen around me. I was in the middle of a desert infiltrated by blazing heat, but I had never breathed such crisp and clean air in my entire life, our modern world sure has become a bubble of toxic gas; I thought to myself. Before I could forget I pulled out my camcorder and pressed the record button, it was the start of my journey to end the war in the modern day. I hopped into the jeep and ventured out to find the all mighty prophet Muhammad, it was said that he lived in Mecca the holiest of places known to Islam. I passed through many small villages asking where he lived, they simply replied, “follow the wind and birds, everything is attracted to him”. It was now almost a three-week journey that only took me nearly three days in my car, but I had finally arrived in Mecca. I saw the most glorious of tents, it was made of gold silk, stitched with leather which glistened in the sun, I knew it had to be his home. I entered quietly, still in awe of the beauty of his home when I finally took a glimpse of him. A man
Final Exam: Between the beginning of World War II and the present decade, the United States underwent significant reform through key legislative acts, which addressed race relations, poverty, and gender.

A state of isolationism was a goal too great for America to handle. America and its leaders had sought to stay out of both World War I and World War II only to be pulled in by intense happenings that inflicted chaos on the nations people. World War II would be a time in American history that would bring many fresh war tactics and developments, that helped to pull a depraved nation from the depths of a depression as well as pledge the freedom and prosperity of its opposing nations. Dangerous discoveries will be made in the world would be left to be governed by two world powers.
Throughout history the United States has been involved in many different wars. Their involvement has brought forth many significant events and changes that have affected the American way of life. I will briefly discuss the events and the United States involvement in World War I and World War II. I will give a brief overview of both wars and explain exactly how and why the United States joined in each.
Dwight D. Eisenhower once said, “We are going to have peace even if we have to fight for it.” This quote is an accurate description of the mindset during both World War 1 and World War 2. There are many aspects of war that can be compared and contrasted. I am going to compare and contrast World War 1 and World War 2. I will explain how they started, what happened or changed during both, and how they ended.
From the beginning Of World War II in 1939 until the end in 1945, the battles between the Allied and Axis powers were violent and caused great destruction. It became a world dispute after the attack on Pearl Harbor. From then on, countries such as the United States, France, Germany, Japan, the Soviet Union, and many others fought vigorously until a victory was achieved. World War II officially began after Japan attacked Pearl Harbor and the United States declared war. The war was made up of a series of major events such as the Battle of El Alamein, the Battle of Leyte Gulf, the Battle of Stalingrad, and D-Day which all lead to the victory of the Allied powers.
Two of the most agonizing periods in the 20th century, World War I and II, left a lasting impact on society economically, politically, and socially. As we have read in detailed archives on both world catastrophes, the nature in which violence shaped society after the war varied greatly. Ernst Jünger in Storm of Steel shares his heroic memoirs from fighting on the German front in World War I. Art Spiegelman tells the very personal and emotional story of his father, a survivor of World War II’s Holocaust. Throughout the war, Ernst reminds us of his heroism and his withstanding sacrifice, up until he is badly injured and no longer able to fight. Ernst is proud of his achievements in the war, and shares his book with the world so that we can admire his heroism. Where as Art Spiegelman’s parent’s, lived on after the Holocaust depressed—Art’s mother committed suicide 23 years after the war! After reading these two accounts, the biggest difference between World War I and World War II, was how society reacted to the violence and harsh conditions enforced upon them. Civilians after World War I persevered their struggles to counteract the destruction that impeded their nation’s growth. On the other hand, Civilians of World War II were left in a state turmoil.
World War II was a war that ended in much tragedy. There were over 60 million

“Atom bomb”, “Nazis”, “Hitler”, “Pearl Harbor”, “concentration camps” are all words that make you think of World War II (WWII) and these are all closely related to WWII. What about “Rosie the Riveter”, “war bonds”, “the family dynamics”, “rubber and aluminum drives”? Does it ring any bells? These words are related to WWII also but refer to the home front. The absence of many men due to WWII, caused the dynamics of the workforce and of the “women’s place in the family” changed forever.

The ideology that a specific religious, political, or ethnic group is superior to others, a key trait of totalitarianism, played a role in World War II-era atrocities such as the pogroms against the Jewish community in Germany, the killing of dissidents in the USSR, and the brutal treatment and massacres of the Chinese by the Japanese army.
The end of World War II was not just the end of a war, but also the beginning of a tense and dynamic period that affected society on all levels. This “postwar” period, as it became known, shaped the world, as we know it today; likewise, the period was shaped itself both by the war that had preceded it, and the powerful forces that surrounded it. As the energy of fundamentally different ideologies, Communism and Democracy collided with advances in science such as the nuclear bomb, a dangerous environment ensued that created an atmosphere of paranoia throughout the world and especially, within America.
PEW includes statistics showing the rapid decrease with participation to a -7.8% in less than seven years, while the increase of agnostic beliefs rose to + 6.7% during the same time, with minority religions’ Buddhism, Judaism, and Muslim indicating a slight + 1.2% increase. If you do not believe religion has an influence over politics don’t kid yourself, as an example the ultra-orthodox communities come in by the droves casting their votes to keep their cronies in office as to not lose their footing on perks and free handouts. If you can stomach watching any news channels on current events you can experience it firsthand. (PEW)
In 1914 Bosnia was holding the annual summer manoeuvers of the Austro- Hungarian army that were centered on the XV and XVI corps there. It was said it was beautiful Sunday morning as it was bright and sunny that day. Archduke Franz Ferdinand was there serving as the inspector of the army. It was announced in March that the Archduke Franz Ferdinand would be attending this event, and would be visiting Sarajevo as well. Archduke Franz Ferdinand and his wife Sophie were assassinated by Gavrilo Princip on June 28th, 1914 in Sarajevo as an act of terror by Princip, on behalf of the Slavic Nationalist Black Hand Organization. This date is often associated with being the start of the First World War.
