Part Six

1914-2008

This era is full of many accomplishments, but to me what sticks out the most is the how men have such evil intentions, and how they manipulate others to harm one another. I am talking about people like Hitler and Mussolini. Still today we see people who are capable of taking over peoples minds and corrupt them to do outstanding things. To have their mind so full of venom it's inexplicable in my mind. I cannot imagine the terror and fear that people went through during those times when those two men were in power. But not only were there evil men out to get the world, there were also good men who wanted peace and fought for the rights of those who couldn't. We also witnessed Nelson Mandela and Mohandas Gandhi. They too, were the opposite of evil, where they made history and change the many lives of those people in their countries, and around the world.

Ch. 17

Year 1750-1914 the world witnessed the North American Revolution, the French Revolution, the Haitian Revolution, the Spanish American Revolution, the Abolition of Slavery, we saw Nations and the meaning of Nationalism, and the Feminist beginning. This was at time where people fought a lot and, from this era many reached independence from mother countries like Britain. Colonies became united and soon after they became self-governing and a full country. Slavery soon begun to appear immoral and changed the course of the world. And religion made it's way out of politics. And the feminist movement in those times was a loud and clear message that women were alive and that they had a voice- therefore they had a say so.
