According to a physics principle, “every action has a corresponding reaction and every cause has an equivalent effect” (Cause and Effect, 2016). In the field of history, the meaning of this principle is that in every historical event, there is an underlying cause. This cause is the root of all subsequent events that follow, considered as the effects or consequences. Some people say that this principle is valid because many events or consequences would not happen if there is no root cause just like attributing all misfortunes on earth to Adam and Eve. In essence, these people believe that ...

Europe's Last Summer by David Fromkin considers the origins of World War from the perspective of the alliances Germany had formed prior to the war and how those alliances affected its entry into the war.

In particular, Fromkin looks in detail at the European crisis that occurred in mid-1914 and pieces together his argument that it was Germany’s alliances and how poorly it handled its diplomatic relations which resulted in the terrible calamity ...

The Assassination of Russia’s Ambassador to Turkey

As I look at the photograph of the assassination of Russia’s ambassador to Turkey, Andrey Karlov, I am able to enter the same gallery that elicits an aroma of a freshly cleaned place where I witness the anguish of the assassin, hear the loud voice of his conviction, and experience the bitter taste of death that sends chills down my spine.

“Et tu, Brute?” Many people recognize this pithy question as Julius Caesar’s last words upon seeing Roman senator Marcus Julius Brutus, with whom he had a relationship akin to that of a father and son, among his murderers on March 15, 44 BC. The phrase roughly translates to, “You too, Brutus?”. However, there is no historical evidence these were Caesar’s last words; more likely; they were popularized by William Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar in the sixteenth century.
Known as the Ides of March, Caesar’s death is one of the most famous political overthrows in all of ...

The killing of President John F. Kennedy was a blatant murder, not a random assassination executed by a man by the name of Lee Harvey Oswald. His death was carefully planned out, and was a result of the Presidents attitude towards issues surrounding the Federal Reserve, or otherwise known as the FDIC.

This of course is the US Governments official response to what happened that day. The Warren Commission claims that he single-handily planned and executed an assassination attempt on President John ...

Life can be difficult in many of its stages. It seems though, that across the board, in both fiction and non-fiction, it is this time of coming of age that everything seems to take on an increased level of intensity.

Warrant Glen, by William Wallis, is an account of friendship during high school, in a school setting where there is violence happening within one’s surroundings, and also on the national stage.

Henry Kissinger was perhaps one of the most active and important Secretaries of State. His forceful intervention in several questions such as the Vietnam War as well as his propping up of General Gustavo Augusto Pinochet makes him a reviled figure amongst those who have democracy at heart (Bass, p 275).
This paper seeks to argue that Kissinger should indeed be hauled in front of an International War Crimes Tribunal largely due to his intervention, covert or non-covert in several mass genocides. Two of these are those in Bangladesh in 1971 where the Pakistani Army was given US backing to ...

History is considered to be humanity’s legacy drawing the path which is to be paved upon the learnings of the past. It was Aristotle, the great Ancient Greek philosopher, who had said that history is a series of homocentric cycles, aiming at pointing the importance of studying it.

Do you think Martin Luther King Went too far in his "Letter from Birmingham Jail” do you think he did not go far enough?
No, I do not believe that Martin Luther King went ‘too far’ at all in his “Letter from Birmingham Jail”, since the injustice and oppression blacks faced were very real, and the white clergy he was writing to had never done anything for civil right and just wished he would go away. Martin Luther King could have been a lot more violent and angry than he was in this letter, given that in Birmingham, Alabama ...

History has its own unique recount of how small civilizations became superpowers, and how the world came to be in the current century. There were nations that have been wiped out of the map, while there were nations that struggled out of the control of other nations and became a beacon of hope for nations controlled by foreign powers. American history, for example, showcases how the once colony of the English Empire strove hard to remove itself from the reach of the English monarchy and became its very own nation. Several other events transpired in the period of 1776-1877 which ...

Was the US justified in first committing military personnel and later escalating involvement in Vietnam?

Both Democratic and Republican administrations shared the consensus in 1954-75 that South Vietnam should be maintained as a standing domino against the expansion of Communism in Asia, although whether it actually could survive, at least at an acceptable cost, was another question entirely. Dwight Eisenhower, John F. Kennedy, Lyndon Johnson and Richard Nixon all expressed similar foreign policy views in the 1950s and 1960s, as they moved steadily deeper into the quagmire of the Vietnam War. At the time when the U.S. refused to allow elections to reunify the country in 1956, in violation of the 1954 Geneva Accords, the ...

If you look at the portrayal of superheroes in film over the past three or four decades, it is clear that the characters are becoming darker in their personal nature, their motivations and the way they act in the films. If you look at the way that Adam West acts in the Batman film from the 1960s and in the television program, it is fairly clear that the emphasis of the show is campy in nature, and while his Batman does state lessons in a paternal sort of tone, the humor of the show makes the whole thing seem ...
