The United States Of America

Chapter 6 narrates the popular demand for a militarized “food dictatorship,” and the state leaders’ response to it. The poor Berliners challenged the market economy and believed that only a total militarized control of food distribution could serve their needs. Seeing the slow response of the authorities, the starving population found that the government failed to make their promise to reward their patriotism in the war. A byproduct at this time was anti-Semitism, separating “true Germans” from “the Jew” that were associated with profiteering (132-135). This chapter contends that the women of lesser means perceived the state’s capacity for controlling food distribution as a criterion to “adjudicate the government’s success or failure” (115). Consequently, the WWI Germany was not fully oriented to the military need and political loyalty, but full of dynamic altercation (115).

.“Ships that come and go- I wonder where they’ve been and where they’re going when they leave. I wonder what they carry with them and what they bring. The other day when I went to the market, I saw stalks of sugarcane- one of the vendors said that it came from Barbados. Barbados is an island like Jamaica- maybe Thomas will take me there one day…”

There are those who do not like the idea that they are being better served than others are. It makes them feel guilty and upset; they will feel empathy and sympathy to those who never had the opportunities that they had. The minute one acknowledges that one has privilege, that individual must either act on that knowledge, or burry one’s head in the sand. Both in quality of education and in resources, those that are the most under-served are ethnic and racial minorities living in cities. On the other hand, those that are being best served are Caucasians in suburbs, who are disproportionately given the resources and money that urban schools need. Through political and racial attitudes that have persisted from our countries inception, these

The Southern States of America was made up of the following, Georgia with Atlanta as the Capital of the new union, Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Mississippi, South Carolina, Louisiana, Tennessee and Kentucky. Although, Kentucky wasn’t a sure bet at this point, there was still a lot of work to do in that state.

The basic explanation of what this compromise was, is basically a package of 5 different bills that the United states Congress passed in 1850. That is not all though, for it is rather more complicated than just being 5 different bills. to further understand the compromise, you need to think back to the slave and free states of our country at this time.

The entrance of the United States of America into the First World War in 1917 on the sides of the allies impacted the outcome of the Great War by tilting the strategic military balance in favor for the allies and against the Central Powers. The Central Powers, made up of the German Empire, the Ottoman Empire, and the Austria-Hungarian Empire, were fighting to preserve their empires in light of geopolitical shifts occurring at the time. The US entered the war partially to restore Global Peace and also to vanquish the German Empire, which had antagonized the US by seeking to form a hostile military alliance with Mexico to the detriment of American national interests (Doyle 1160).

Following numerous events in the 1850’s and early 1860’s, eleven of the southern states of the United States of America would make a fateful decision to succeed from the Nation. They would in turn create their own independent country, the Confederate States of America. This action and its ramifications echoed throughout the world during the Era and the effects are still felt today. A civil war would ensue, lasting from April of 1861 until May of 1865. During this conflict approximately 700,000 people would lose their lives and the end would come with the Confederate States of America surrendering at Appomattox Courthouse.

The 113th Congress has been considered as the worst congress in the history of the United States. The highly polarized institution showed its inefficiency when dealing with the fiscal budget. By failing to pass a new budget, the American government shutdown for a couple of weeks. One of the leading causes of disagreement between the two parties was the extension of the debt ceiling limitation. The government is accruing more and more debt every year, and not passing a budget could eventually lead to a default on American loans. Although the 113th congress resolved their issues during the 16 days of shutdown, they ultimately postponed the battle till the next year. In my paper, I will explain the background of S.540, the Temporary Debt Limit Extension Act, who introduced it and how each party opposed each other on this bill. This bill went through a yearlong journey starting in the Senate and ending on the president’s desk. I will then conclude by evaluating the proposed bill and explain why it was signed and enacted as a law.

The journey of how the United States of America became the United States of America is a very complex one. With America declaring separation from the Great English Empire, to the organization of becoming a free, sovereign nation and lastly, the migration and colonization of the now, western United States, including the great state of Nevada, has many components. The Declaration of Independence initiated the process of becoming a country of its own. This Document pushed the separation from England and showed the world that America was now its own nation. The United States Constitution laid out the blue print of how the United States would work. This was after a failed attempt of the Articles of Confederation. After the Constitution was created, the process of migrating west began in order to colonize the western region of the United States. Nevada had a big role in this because we helped President Abraham Lincoln gain a second term. The first chapters of the story of the Untied States of America were a dangerous, difficult and long one, but because of this, the people that live in this country today have the freedom of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

During the 1800s, the United States of America underwent some drastic changes. President Jefferson introduced a simple idea of expansion with the Louisiana Purchase and the Lewis and Clark Expedition; President Madison allowed the country to slip into the war of 1812 after complications with the impressment of American seaman by British navy in the Great War during Jefferson’s time. After the war, an “Era of Good Feelings” promoted national unity and Marshall’s supreme court decided many cases that promoted power of the national government over the states. The Monroe Doctrine told European powers that they must not interfere with events in the Western Hemisphere, and the creation of the national bank also took place during this time.

In the United States of America, slavery has been abolished formally on December 6, 1865 through the 13th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. The U.S. Constitution has also established the fundamental law, method of governing, and rights of individuals. However, what if I told you that there is a certain group of people who are unjustifiably stopped, searched, and arrested by law enforcement, governed by a different set of laws which are more strict, in addition to the justice system that further dictates their lives after release and all this because of their race and ethnicity. This was the reality of the five black and hispanic teens in the Central Park jogger case, the people of color who cannot afford a prominent attorney, the people

In XIX century, after Europe start the Enlightenment movement in the pasts century XVIII, United States started to be influenced for this movement too. The industrial age had arrived and the country started a vertiginous growth into new technologies and conditions. However, besides of the new way of thinking and the new reality that United States was living in that period of time, the country was divided into the “Liberalism” and “Conservatism”, traditions and movements. Enlightenment starts to form a shape, especially strong in the northern states in comparison with the southern states. United States had a very strong slavery culture in its foundations, specifically surrounding the African Americans and Blacks. During that time, the

At the beginning of the 18th century, the United States of America was beginning its long journey to becoming a nation. Free from the British Empire the United States started a government for and by the people something lacking previously. As George Washington was sworn into office his wife, Marsha Washington also took on new responsibilities. The Republican court was formed as a unifying tool. Held in the center of the country at the time, Philadelphia, it served as a way for people to converse about various topics. For Marsha Washington it became a social gathering. Described by Abigail Adams as “Too bibulous (two quarter casks of wine and spirits drained), too ravenous (200 pounds of cake gobbled), and too loud.” AS Washington’s term came to an end, John Adams was voted. Abigail Adams came to take over the Republican Court. She came to reform and modernize the conversation and status of the court. With experiences in European courts, thanks to her husband’s political ambassador experiences, she saw the European court ceremonies of dress, conversation and overall prestige with the courts. The Early Republican Court became a symbol and a tool for women to display their political knowledge.

In the United States of America, we have laws and regulations allowing us or not allowing us to partake in certain actions. Justice by definition is the process or results of using laws to fairly judge ones just or unjust actions and behavior.

It has been seven years since the largest and most powerful capitalist country in the world faced an uncertain and volatile financial meltdown that affected domestic and international soils. The United States of America (USA) was hit by a recession that began in early 2007, under the leadership of President George W. Bush.
