Louis Xiv Civil War

King Louis was an Absolute leader he believed that the higher hierarchy should live lavish. To fulfill this he needed money, he used his power to “collect taxes and use the money as he saw fit” (Becker, Doc 1). The Sun King Louis also made sure that what he wants goes, if he felt that something needed to be done good or bad he made sure that the problem was being dealt with.” It would take misfortunes in which they themselves were the sufferers to change their mind about the beneficence of the Sun King” (Glasser Doc 3). Louis’s impact was strong, throughout all his actions he made destroyed the country they were always in wars and the money begin collected went towards military and himself. It was as if he brainwashed his contemporaries to do what he wanted with them not knowing what the long term effects

During 1780s to 1790s France was in total chaos. France was ruled by the Bourbon family King Louis XVI from 1754 to 1793, it was an absolute monarch and they had absolute power and did not share it with a legislature. The situation was already bad before Louis XVI began his reign, but situation got worse. In the end, there was a revolution in France and a vast amount changes to the society and the government of France. Louis XVI himself was executed and killed; while France was established as a democratic country. There were different reasons for Louis's downfall: social, economic, political conditions. Also reasons such as the Age of Enlightenment when some philosophers had new ideas of how the country should be ruled, the inequalities

My opinion on this article is that it’s actually very inspiring and supportive. I like the fact that Fox challenged the entertainment industry because in a way, many people are talking about that women cannot play in major league teams, but the fact that Fox took a risk and the show is based on a true story about Sarah Hudek. She is one of the biggest role models for women because she destroyed that stereotype for women. I have seen multiple advertisements about the show Pitch because it is huge phenomenon about a woman pitching. I find this article really inspiring mainly because of the fact Sarah Hudek didn’t allow society to break her, instead she continued to be the best

This report is prepared to indicate how I would respond to a scene. It will cover the areas of scene planning, toolkit preparation, evidence collection, and steps of the investigation. The process requires training, common sense, patience, and experience. Ultimately, all critical evidence should be properly collected, stored, and recorded for further analysis. Method Scene Planning One of the main aspects of any investigation is safety.

In this time the monarchy was in a crisis because of excessive spending and the poor were taxed even more to supposedly create more money. Because of this, many expressed their resentment toward Louis XVI which created and aristocratic revolt. The king were then executed with his wife Marie-Antoinette. A bloody Reign of Terror then followed when Robespierre was in power. Then after the people decided then on his killing, the French Revolution ended.

Vasco da Gama's revolutionary sea expedition to India is one of the most crucial moments in the entire history of exploration. Till the middle of 15th century, Portugal was the foremost seafaring country in Europe. King Manuel I: the ruler of Portugal hired about four ships for the voyage around Africa to the legendary land of India. King Manuel I knew that India was a huge cradle of variety of spices, which were extremely rare to see in other places and moreover they were pretty expensive in Europe. The king had also noticed that the Muslim merchants transported the spices by caravans through Arabian deserts and sold them in the markets of the Mediterranean ports. King Manuel I expected a new sea route to India, as that would enable him to import spices directly. This achievement was very important for Portugal as they could trade and earn money a lot of money from it. India was filled with spices: Pepper was a very common and the most used spice, it was used to preserve food and to flavor spoiled meat. Pepper was originated from Cochin and Malabar Coast in India. Cloves and cinnamon were equally used. They were used for keeping the food hygienic and ventilated. They were also sprinkled across the floor to avoid foot odor from entering the room. Many spices were also used for the cure of various illnesses and deadly diseases. India was the foremost spice trader for most of the countries including Europe.

Why was the civil war, a war for freedom? The Civil War, in the words of President Abraham Lincoln, brought to America “a new birth of freedom.” And during the war began the nation’s efforts to come to terms with the destruction of slavery and to define the meaning of freedom. But by the war’s end it was already clear that Reconstruction would bring far-reaching changes in Southern society, and a redefinition of the place of blacks in American life.

It is quite obvious that there were many goals to achieve during the Civil War. But discovering the true meaning and vision of the Civil War is the concept that is still researched today by the people of America. In the prologue of Blight’s Race and Reunion he states: (Three overall visions of the Civil War memory collided and combined over time: one, the reconciliationist vision … two, the white supremacist vision … and three, the emancipationist vision…) All three of these visions are extremely important, however, I mainly want to stress the importance of the white supremacist vision and the emancipationist vision. An obvious form of the change for the meaning of the Civil War through the period of Reconstruction is through the eyes of emancipationists. Emancipationist’s visions are mainly seen through African American’s eyes as they remember their freedom through the Civil War and Reconstruction. They see the Civil War as a new construction for the liberation of blacks through citizenship and Constitutional equality. It seems quite obvious that the Blacks did indeed earn more rights as Reconstruction progressed but, there were disagreements of the rights for Blacks. The white supremacist vision did not want the Civil War to be seen as a war fought for the freedom of Blacks and Blacks rights. They wanted the Civil War to be envisioned as a defense of Southern rights as their “property” (slaves) was soon to be taken. Both of these ideas and interpretations still live on in

There has always been quite a bit of tension between northern and southern territories while creating our nation. Though we all had one common goal - expanding westward - northerners and southerners had many different ideals on how to achieve that goal. Many historians believe that the Civil War could have been avoided, I for one believe the Civil War was quite inevitable. Obviously, the different ideas are going to cause some tension between the two ‘colonies’. Looking at all the events that did lead to the Civil War I have come to the conclusion that there were three broad causes which lead to the Civil War. The three major causes of the Civil War are the challenges over: political disputes, slavery, and tariffs.

The American Civil War, also known as the Civil War, lasted from 1861 to 1865. The war was to determine the survival of the union, or independence for the confederate states. Some would argue that slavery was the principle cause of the war. After much research, I believe the war started because of the misunderstandings, and conflicts between the North and South. Slavery, however, was one of the main purposes. The North and South had economic and social differences causing many disagreements. They argued about state and federal rights, expansion of slave states, the Abolition Movement, and the election of Abraham Lincoln.

Guns fired, smoke lingering in the air, people dying. The American Civil War had a huge impact on the United States. Two compromises took place before the start of the Civil War. These compromises include the Missouri Compromise and the Compromise of 1850. The Missouri Compromise dealt with the crisis in 1819 over Missouri entering the Union as a slave state. The compromise was “the first major crisis over slavery, and it shattered a tacit agreement between the two regions that had been in place since the constitution. Under the terms of the agreement, the North would not interfere with slavery in the Southern States, and the South would recognize slavery as an evil that should be discouraged and eventually abolished whenever it was safe and feasible to do so” (Stauffer). The compromise showed the belief that was shared by most of the Founding Fathers and the framers of the Constitution: that slavery was wrong. Thirty-one years later, the Compromise of 1850 was created. This compromise “consisted of five basic parts, the most onerous of which was a stringent fugitive slave law that denied suspected fugitives the right to a jury by trial and virtually legislated slave stealing.The Fugitive Slave law converted countless northerners to the antislavery cause” (Stauffer). Although the Fugitive Slave law, one of the five parts of the Compromise of 1850, caused many northerners to start believing the antislavery cause, the compromise itself achieved the opposite of its intentions.

The divide of the social divide that developed on the opposite ends of the Mason-Dixon Line came from over centuries of development. The culture that ended in the two waring ends of the United States began as a nearly identical one. Over the growth of a new nation the two regions divided along strict moral, political, and economic lines that came to a head in what is known as the American Civil War. What really led this nation to divide so drastically from its coming together to fight off an imperial rule and form democratic state though? While many place the blame on the ‘evil’ South and their acceptance of owning human people but this entirely discounts the racism and xenophobia of the North at the time. Like most things, the victor gets

Some people think that King Louis XIV did more harm to France than good. They cite his lack of moderation in managing his money. They also point out that Louis denied religious liberties to the Protestants of France and tightened control over his Roman Catholic subjects by revoking the Edict of Nantes. They also claim Louis’ war efforts were very costly and drained the treasury of France. Some say his arrogance, including his emblem of the “Sun King”, turned “his” people away from him. They think that Louis only cared about himself and what he wanted and didn’t think about future France.

After being ruled by a prime minister for so long, France needed some changes. That is exactly what Louis the XIV would bring to France. In an age of separation, Louis wanted to start a unification process. He started this by giving himself sole power and also only having one religion for the country. The king is always the center of attention good or bad. Louis was prepared to take the good with the bad, and handled it well. He emphasized the king as the center of attention. While some see him as egotistical and greedy, Louis was one king who knew how to make improvements.
