“I believe you all can say something about the significance of wars. Can you?”
“Definitely”, said Tayo.
“What if the wars that helped us get here today never happened. Where would we stand in the world we live in today? What are the most significant wars, and where would we be without them? Without these wars, the world we know today would be very different. The Spanish conquest of the Aztec Empire is not only one of the notable events within the early exploration and conquest of the land, but it is one of the most significant phenomenon to have ever occurred in the history. In general, the conquest displayed the impact of European scrutiny on the New World and the outcomes of the Age of Explorat

Bob walked briskly to the class podium.“You wanna talk about the Yorkshire ships?” Mrs. Ayodele asked.“Yes ma.”“Okay begin,”My historical topic for this paper will be on the Five Yorktown ships. The reason for this is two of the ships are world famous because of their time in both World Wars but the other three have been lost to history and I plan on bringing them back.

“Well I definitely know some countries got the intentions of becoming a superpower,” Aaron said.“tell me about it”“America first came out of its isolationist shell and stepped onto the world stage in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century, and since then things have never been the same. After its victory over Spain, it had reached the top of the ladder of world prominence and was looking to play a part on the global level. It had a become a world-power with influence and a foothold in the affairs of the world, and with that came great power and responsibility. America’s ill-advised decisions, ambition and overbearing self-confidence, and the twisted desire to exert itself as a world power that was firm on its stance to contain communism and protect freedom and democracy h

“I remember a great speech by Theodore” she said.““in his wordings he said in one sense, the first essential for a man’s being a good citizen is his possession of the home virtues of which we think when we call a man by the emphatic adjective of manly.
