The man in the corner knows that somethings up. The man is almost assured that the Boy in Blue’s family is guilty. The boy is a Royalist and so isn’t the little girl, which is most likely the boy’s sister. The little girl seems to be crying, having her hands cover her face while the Sergeant (the man that arrested the family) is holding her there. The two women behind the little girl is most likely her mother and sister. The interrogator is the man who is questioning the boy. He’s not as intimidating as the other Parliamentarians in the room, perhaps he’s just sick of the war. Behind the interrogator is the man in the Black. This man stares at the little boy with a serious facial expression, but yet he seems glad that another Royalist family has been discovered, because he probably believes that they deserve bad punishment. The man at the edge of the picture seems to be hoping for some information that will help his own cavalry to win over the Royalists. The Leather hat beside it is a leather cowboy-type of hate that was worn by cavalry men during the Civil War. The man on the bench is a cavalry officer, he is watching the boy with interest. The man writing is the clerk thats writing everything down that is said.

 * Essay on "Discussing the political, economic, and social condition that led to 13/09political revolutions in the first global age."**

Although the political, economic, and social conditions led to political revolution in the first global age, politically, Simon Bolivar’s vision of America wanted it to be everything as a whole, no separate countries owning different sections of them. Bolivar’s overall vision was continental unity, even attempting a Congress of the America’s in Panama in 1826, which is part of the political revolution in the first global age. In social conditions, the relationship between the population and land ownership was one of the causes of the French Revolution because first of all, there were financial problems, therefore, France was broke. The American Revolution, which was a war when American colonists won independence because of British rule, in which Americans helped plant seeds in France of revolution. Outdated Social System’s, was another problem in which The Estates General was based on customs and medieval laws that did not fit with modern day society. Another important issue...money. Where did all the money go to? By 1780, half of the national budget in France went to the government, which the government borrowed, for the American Revolution to finance their part. For example. First State, Second State, and Third State. First estate is made up of religious leaders. Second estate is made up of the nobility. And the Third estate was made up of a complete nation. Percentage of population, by estate, First estate- 0.5%, Second estate- 1.5%, Third estate- 98%. Percentage of land ownership, by estate. First estate- 10%, Second estate- 20%, Third estate- 70%. So as you can see, Third estate over rules, well at least in population and land ownership. This was all in some affect that led to political revolutions in the first global age. Politically, the revolution that were part of the chain’s reactions set off by Enlightenment ideas, involved were the American Revolution and the French Revolution. The American Revolution had no terror, what so ever. The French Revolution on the other hand, ever since the beginning of global history, major politics have occurred economically, socially, and cultural revolutions. When Napoleon establishes the Consulate, the French Revolution came to an end. Economically, Did Thomas Jefferson really copy from John Locke? Well the Declaration of Independence, as we all know is the nation’s very cherished representative of liberty and happens to be Jefferson’s most enduring monument. But did Jefferson do something wrong? the ideals of individual liberty had already been said by John Locke and also the Continental philosophers. He summarized this in “self-evident truths.” But Jefferson’s famous phrase “Life, Liberty, and the PUrsuit of Happiness” was already from the phrase of John Locke. John Locke had said earlier on, “Life, liberty, and property.” The only thing that was changed was that he changed property into “the pursuit of happiness” when he wrote the Declaration of Independence. Also Locke had written that “government is an instrument of the people’s will, and the people have the right to rebel if the government proves to be tyrannical or defective. Jefferson was one of the first to use Lock’s ideas, which is what they call plagiarism. So their you have it, Thomas Jefferson copied from John Locke, so as you can see, this was a definite affect to leading onto the political revolutions in the first global age.
