George Sober, a sanitary engineer, was brought in to find the cause of illness and had proposed that it was the ingestion of freshwater clams.

Explain to her that for eons great civilizations, empires and countries have collapsed due to the disproportionate distribution of wealth -- igniting distrust, cynicism and, ultimately revolution -- both violent and non violent. Finally, explain to her the definition of a republic, democracy and capitalism. Please reinforce that capitalism is an economic system. Like with democracy, most "capitalist" countries are not wholly capitalist, and more often than not have mixed economies, in which government regulates certain aspects of the economy. At the end of the day, people voted the "poster child" capitalist who convinced us that he was one of us i.e. a man for the working class. Maybe Trump will let us use his personal Jet and yacht

Some examples of these would include The Battering Ram, The Turris, and The Ballista. The Roman army was also very willing to incorporate the war tactics and the weapons of their defeated enemies if they were deemed beneficial. (Alchin) These improvements provided the Roman army advantages in battle. The Roman generals that were picked to lead the army were highly skilled in the art of war.

The Roman Empire lasted from 201 BC to 476 AD and conquered many lands bordering them, including Mediterranean and covered all of western Europe and half of Britain. On the other hand, the Mongol empire lasted from 1206 AD to 1386 AD and conquered much of Russia, Islam, and many of the Slavic peoples. Their conquests were swift and brutal, often leaving thousands dead behind them and successfully becoming the civilization who had conquered the most land. Although both of the two empires were highly successful, but in my opinion, the Roman empire was more successful because they lasted much longer, was ruled by many successful and powerful leaders such as Julius Caesar and Alexander the Great, and also because it left behind many positive

The death penalty has existed since B.C times and continues to exist until today. The 8th amendment of the United States prohibits the government from imposing excessive bails, fines and cruel or unusual punishments. The death penalty is considered constitutional under the 8th amendment because it is fair, un-cruel and its expenses aren't extraordinarily large. Although people believe the death penalty is a good system, it is actually counterproductive because it kills innocent people, doesn't deter crime and costs more than housing inmates.
