Simon Bolivar wanted to unite North and South America after Spain invaded. He helped Latin America in the revolution against Spain for independence because he felt Spain had done wrong. He even attempted to make a Congress of the Americas in Panama in 1826. The church owned more than 10% of the land in France and didn't have to pay any taxes. The farmers had to pay the church in food even though they were already malnourished. The peasants made up over 80% of the population. Even though they were the poorest, they had to pay the most taxes for their land. The Age of Enlightenment was a time when the world began to understand that Revolution was needed to solve many of the problems in their country. This caused a chain reaction that led to the American Revolution, Latin Revolution, and French Revolution. Thomas Jefferson copied many of the ideas of John Locke. Most of everything he wrote as the Declaration had already been used. All Jefferson did was summarize Locke’s philosophies.

Japanese Bombings: Needed or Not? Imagine you’re walking down the street in the city. You look up into the sky, admiring the beauty of the clouds. In the distance, three army planes are cruising through, breaking the silence with the roar of their engines. A small dot drops from the bottom of one of them, and moments later, you see a spark. The spark forms a cloud like you’ve never seen before; never even heard of. In seconds, you and all the surrounding city are incinerated. This was the experience of over 140 million innocent citizens in Japan at the time of the first atomic bombing. While the nuclear bombs of Hiroshima proved United States’ dominance over other countries, they were an unnecessary part of the war because Japan would have surrendered anyway.
