Just within 7 miles of Gatlinburg, you'll find a sister city, as such, the region known as Pigeon Forge. Both places seemed designed unashamedly with tourists in mind and they exploit this fact to the max.
Finally, it has already been said but bears repeating: Memphis is where Graceland is. It is the final resting place of The King. It is the single most important place in the entire world. That alone makes Memphis not only one of the greatest American cities, but one of the greatest cities in the world. Anyone who disagrees hates not only rock and roll and barbeque, but everything that makes America

In Canadian history, nationalism and sovereignty tend to be common themes prevalent since Confederation. A well-known example of this in Quebec was during the Quiet Revolution which strengthened the need for change through Premier Lesage’s reforms and in turn, developed a strong sense of nationalism in Quebec. In contrast to beliefs that the rapid modernization of the Quiet Revolution had a positive impact on Quebec, it rather had a negative impact on Quebec and its citizens and identity. The three consequences which arose in Quebec as a result of the revolution are the encouragement of separatism, the elimination of traditional values and roles and the establishment of powerful bureaucratic control. Quebec’s attempt to be more like the
Toussaint L’Ouverture was born in 1743 in Saint Domingue on a plantation in Cap-Haïtien. He was quite prodigious as a young child: rather than working as a field slave and toiling in the hot sun, he began his slave existence as a herder. Later on, he became a coach driver and waiter for his owner. Ultimately, his owner saw such promise in him that he appointed L’Ouverture as an overseer of fellow slaves who were working in the field. Throughout his tenure, being a more “upscale” slave, he was given access to the plantation library. It was in that library that L’Ouverture’s godfather taught him how to read and write, and the seeds of his future were sown.

How did the French Revolution impact events on San Domingue (Haiti)? What did the revolution mean for the French? For Haitians? Why was this both contradictory and dangerous?
On December 6th, 1989, the Ecole Polytechnique engineering school in Montreal would – unbeknownst to everyone in the building – become the backdrop for one of the worst mass murder incidents in Canadian history. 14 women were shot and killed at the hands of a shooter named Marc Lepine, and 13 others were gravely wounded in the process (Maser, 1987). No outright reason was apparent other than the letters left on his suicide note, but it marked a troubled life that began from his troubled childhood. Factors that may have led up to this incident needs to be examined in further detail, using a psychological explanation and a criminological theory. This paper will use the social learning theory to analyze the behaviours that led up to this
Democracy in America has been a guiding principle since the foundation of the country. Many over the years have commented on the structure and formation of democracy but more importantly the implementation and daily function within the democratic parameters that have been set. Alexis de Tocqueville was a French political thinker and historian born July 29, 1805. He is most famously known for his work Democracy in America. Democracy in America has been an evolving social and economic reform, and has continually changed since it’s founding.
Memphis, Tennessee is a city that I hold dear. Sure, it is riddled with crime, the roads are terrible, and the cost of living is high. However, the rich history and vibrant atmosphere is what draws so many to this marvel of the mid-south. There is nothing quite like walking down Beale Street after enjoying some of the best barbeque available, dipping in and out of bars to feast on the almost constant live music of all genres. The unique smell of smoked meats mixed with stale beer brings me home whenever I catch a whiff.
Robert Altman’s movie Nashville is based on the political, social, and personal problems that our country has to deal with. These problems are rooted in the battle between the need to create some false image of success and the need for truth which is the struggle that exists in every character of this film (except Jeff Goldbloom). To show this Robert Altman takes us through Nashville’s Country Music using political commentary, music and realistically portrayed dialogue to tell the story.
Alexis de Tocqueville was born on July 29, 1805, in Paris, France. He was a historian, political scientist, and a politician, but he is best known as the author of Democracy in America. He began his political career as an apprentice magistrate, a role he was easily able to enter into due to his father’s role in French government. In the role of apprentice magistrate, Tocqueville witnessed the constitutional upheaval between the conservatives and liberals in France. With the inevitable decline of the aristocratic privilege on the horizon, he began to study the English political development. For Tocqueville, the July Revolution of 1830 and the resulting kingship of Louis Philippe of Orleans helped
My heroes are the Canadian veterans, because they fought for us to be safe and free. They left their own homes and went too far away lands, and a lot of them did not come back. They left their children behind and died in the war. Others got hurt badly. The Canadian soldiers have helped the people of Afghanistan to build new roads and schools. I want to be a soldier when I grow up. Thank you, veterans!
Another comparison and contrast between Charles Dickens, Alexis De Tocqueville, and Fanny Trollope is how they managed and experienced life within the newly found Americas. Charles Dickens, Alexis De Tocqueville, and Fanny Trollope traveled to the United States to experience what America had to offer and they all experienced something different and new. America is well known for its immigrants and migration to America, this dates all the way back to the 1820’s throughout the Nineteenth Century. Alexis De Tocqueville and his traveling companion Beaumont traveled for nine months by steamboat, by stagecoach, on horseback and in canoes, visiting America’s penitentiaries and experiencing the newly found Americas. Tocqueville spent time interviewing
Another key point Alexis described about his American experience, was the invention of Individualism, and this differed from Anglo Europeans customs of Egoism. Indeed his description of ego as this self-love that leads people to only think of themselves, “and to prefer himself to everyone else” (Alexis de Tocqueville 109). He believed that individualism was a product of democracy, and it causes men to separate themselves from people and even their family. These men who succeed with the individualistic mentality are driven by personal goals, many believe they alone accomplished this so they determine their own path. Alexis de Tocqueville also believe this American mentality placed all the classes into their own separate group, and that fact
