.... to impress them with their rule's godlike strength. It was the world's first great construction project; indeed, it was the world's largest building. Djoser, the second king of the 3rd dynasty, hired an architect called Imhoptep who for the first time constructed a tomb completely of stone. Imhoptep is considered the preeminent genius of the Old Kingdom. He assembled one workforce to quarry limestone at the cliff of Tura, across the Nile, another to haul the stone to the site where master carvers shaped each block and put it in place. The S .....

.... slowly than ours, but they definitely are not stuck anywhere. They move on slowly but surely. Instead of accepting new technology like the rest of American society, they choose to examine change carefully before they approve of it. If the new idea or gadget does not succeed in keeping their lives simple and their families together, they will most likely reject it. Family is among the most important values the Amish stress. They don't like to let anything break their family ties. The fact that they have lived this way for hundreds of years and not allowed the "modern" world .....

.... (as depicted in some modern day motion pictures), in reality had been carrying on many years before that. Slavery has been recorded all through human history. The Islamic civilizations in the fourteen hundreds had a large trade system in which they marched their slaves across the Sahara to areas in the east. Additionally, it was very common amongst competing African tribes that, after a battle, members of the losing side were forced to work as slaves for the victor. Although it is often not displayed in their natural and noble depictions, this was the case as well with m .....

.... begins by discussing the period of time that America is under the control of Britain. The first inhabitants of the continent took a beating from diseases carried by Europeans. Native Americans did not have the immunities instilled in Europeans. Disease is accredited to wiping out nearly 90 percent of Native Americans. The colonies, however, also had to deal with diseases. Very few physicians lived in the colonies due to the fact that Britain was still the mother country. With the medical establishment being as small as it was, the women of the household often took care of t .....

.... than one reason. Some were obsessed with being free and living a life where they were not told how to live. Others ran due to fear of being separted or sold from friends and family. Then there were some who were treated so cruely, that it forced them to run just to stay alive. Since coming to America as slaves even back as far back as when the first colonies began, slaves wanted to escape. They wanted to get away from the situation they were forced into. Those who were free were the "whites" who were somewhat separated in values. The North, was a more industrialized area wh .....

.... and the Romans from the south. (The Romans didn't actually occupy Czech territory - they only got as far north as the Danube River, which flows from Germany - through Austria along its border with Slovakia - and then over to Hungary before continuing on to Yugoslavia, and so just misses the Czech lands.) During the Migration of Peoples - roughly from the 3d to the 7th centuries AD - Slav colonization spread westward from the Steppes of the East (probably from Panonia) all the way to the territory of the present-day Czech Republic and up to Poland and down again to Yugoslavi .....

.... in 1240, by the Ottoman Empire in the 16th century, and most recently by the Union of Soviet Socialist Republic (USSR) 1922. During most of the time in between the Armenians had their independence. Despite or perhaps because of the constant warfare and conquest of that region and the oppression that the Armenians have faced over time they have developed into a "… strong-willed people, self reliant and fiercely independent"… The Armenians were the first country in the world to make Christianity their country's official religion (20 years before St. Cons .....

.... One man was about to kill the man who killed his wife and kid, but he just couldn't do it. The Germans would run and try to hide in the woods, but the prisoners would run after them and jump them. In the Bible it says we need to forgive and forget just as God has forgiven us. In this situation I think it would be hard for me to forgive the Germans, but it would be harder to forget all the pain and suffering they went through. Many soldiers would write home and tell their parents or family about all that is happening. They would tell them to never throw this away so th .....
