Ghandi's Impact

In the 1930's, Ghandi definitely had the biggest impact on the world. His effects were felt incredibly at his greatest hights of peaceful power, but is also still felt today. One of his biggest triumphs, for example, is incredibly convincing Great Britain to release India to home rule. His peaceful impact was felt strongly in England, the US, and may other countries alike. Ghandi's introduction of peaceful resistance to get what you want, has been one that has influenced many throughout the world. His quote "any country would rather be governed by their own bad governmens than by the good government of an alien country" has even effected me on a personal level, in my views of the war in Iraq, and in movements within the U.S.. Ghandi was definitely extremely influential to the government, and the people in the early 1900's.

WWI

Hullo! I am a seventeen year old white lad from Canterbury, England. I'm very eager to fight in this war, because everyone else is, but I'm unsure exactly what I'm fighting for. I know it's very important to defeat the German's, and to fulfill our duties in the Triple Entente, and to elp those from France and Russia. My family back home is in the middle class, and were proud for me to go, but will be even prouder when I return.

Unionization for female factory workers

There are more advantages than disadvanages for a woman with the early unionization efferos in the early 1800's. Some advantages include organizing the garment workers and textile workers, and also, in working for protective labor legislation for women. Because of unions, there were better factory working conditions for all. The woman's union also serves as a support group for women, and it allowed them to transcend the hostility from men who disagreed with their involvement. The main disadvantage was that things were equal for all women in the union. While that may sound good, it also means that if one woman gets paid poorly, they all do.
IN all, however, I believe that there are definitely more advantages than disadvanages in unionization for women. In my opinion, it was one of the best occurances for women in the 1800's in terms of jobs.

French Revolution: Peasants

Us peasants got te ye ole brunt of a lot of revolutionaries. We peasants were the ones trying to get a better society put into place for ourselves, and instead we wound up being prosecuted for it! We put one of our best men in charge, and instead of helping us, he turned on us and began to use his guillotiene to chop off our yo ole heads! Robes Pierre was at first a good elader for us and reformed the government how we want to with the dismantling of a monarchy. But in the end, he was a terrible leader, and we couldn't get any satisfaction until we chopped the head off of him! Our revolution wasn't very successful for us at first, but I have the feeling that in a couple hunred years, it'll lead to some fair ruling.
