...Although Japan and England are very far apart they still have many traits in common. Especially on the topic of Feudalism, which is a political, economic, and social system based on loyalty, holding of land, and military service. Japanese Feudalism and Medieval Feudalism have many similarities, like they both have four divisions that have similar responsibilities, but they also have differences, like their reasoning of creating this social hierarchy. Japanese and Medieval Feudalism have many things alike. For example both have four divisions in their society, and they both have similar roles. Japan’s four groups are Shoguns, Daimyo, Samurai, and Peasants. The Medical’s four groups are the King, Lords, Knights, and Serfs. At the top of both...

...Essay on Female Mill Workers in England and Japan: How Similar Were Their Experiences? AP World History The industrial revolution was a major period in history; especially for the manual laborer. One segment of the worker population were the women in the textile industry, specifically in England and Japan. Female workers in England and Japan shared similar experiences in the work place. The informational visuals and documents that detail age/gender statistics, economic concerns, and working conditions all contain occupational comparisons yet regional differences. Document 1 is a map of both countries and their physical locations on earth. Both are island nations and are surrounded by water. Because of their geography both were very independent. Document 2 illustrates a lithograph and a photograph from English and Japanese factories. The manufacture of textiles was critical in both civilizations. The lithograph of workers in England displays power loom mills while Japan’s photograph presents women who are working in a silk-reeling factory. An additional document that would help expand the understanding of Japan and England’s background would be a more advanced point of view on regional advantages and disadvantages to inform the differences in both countries work ethic. In both countries the manufacture of textiles was critical in their rise to power. Documents 3 and 4 portray the age/gender comparisons between not only Japan and England, but as well as the percentages...

...First, it is England. Historically, England did not allowed any attack to their country, except ancient Roman Empire. However, Adolf Hitler tried to occupy England without noticing those facts. Since Germany occupied Poland, Netherland, and France in short time England was the only left threat left to Germany. Even though Hitler dropped hundreds thousands bombs on the lands to defeat England, they did not surrender to Germany. Also, British Royal Air Force had air combat fighters named Spitfire, which made them available to fight against Messerschmitt which were German air combat fighters. Britain was not winning but either not defeated, thus it became very expensive long drawn fight for Germany. Second, it is mistake by Japan. December 7th 1941 Japan attacked American naval base at Pearl Harbor in Hawaii. This attack made the United States to join World War II. Japan showed strong confidence, because they had remarkable numbers of bomb and jets; 11 battleships, 10 carriers, 12 heavy cruisers, 25 light cruisers, 93 destroyers, 41 submarine, and 7500 combat fighters. Japan was fourth strongest country in Eurasia next to Germany, the Soviet Union, and England. Against Japan, the United States decided to defeat Japan using 10 percent of their military power out of whole military power; 295,429 combat aircrafts, 96,765 bombers, 98,686 combat fighters, 3,888 observation aircrafts, 15,868 other aircrafts, 1,201 battleships, 64,546 landing ships, and 71,062 naval vessels.

...4/8/2013 Chapter 7 Cletis Hubbard 1. Identify and discuss the advantages and disadvantages of having a bureaucratically organized legal profession. “Bureaucratic organizational structures have numerous layers of management, cascading down from senior executives to regional managers to departmental managers, all the way down to shift supervisors who work alongside frontline employees. Due to the many layers of management, decision-making authority has to pass through a larger number of layers than with flatter organizations. Refund decisions, for example, may have to pass from frontline employees, through shift supervisors, to store managers for a retail outlet in a bureaucratic company.” Some advantages are: “Top-level managers in bureaucratic organizational structures exercise a great deal of control over organizational strategy decisions, which is ideal for business owners with a command and control style. Strategic decision-making time can be shorter in a tall organizational structure, since less individuals are involved in the process. Standardization and best-practices are often highlights in companies with tall organizational structures, ensuring that work is consistently completed efficiently and effectively.” And some disadvantages are: “Bureaucratic structures can discourage creativity and innovation throughout the organization. No matter how ingenious a business owner is, it is virtually impossible for a single individual to generate the range of strategic...

...Criminal Justice Process Alma L. Daniels AIU Criminal Justice Process How does the United States deal with problems related to civil order control? All one needs to do is to take a look at Kent State, Ruby Ridge, and Waco just to name a few to see how the United States deals with civil disorder. The United States Civil Disturbance Plan 55-2 the original name for this project is called “Operation Garden Plot.” This was to be used to deal with civil order. Here is one situation where they would use this “Planned acts of violence or civil disobedience which through arising from the cause as (1) above, are seized upon by a dedicated group of dissidents who plan and incite purposeful acts designed to disrupt social order.” (©2005, Yurica Report) So in order for the United States to maintain civil order control they can use this plan. They also can call out the following people FBI, U.S. Marshals’, DEA, ATF and the Arm Forces along with the National Guardsmen to deal with any civil uprising. Since May 4, 1970 at Kent State until now in 2011 the United States has change the way they handle things related to civil order control. Civil order control means more than just violent crimes it can also mean disasters, national emergencies and it also deals with crowed events like protest like they are having on Wall Street now. They can still call out the National Guards and Arm Forces along with ATF, DEA FBI, and U.S Marshals’ to help handle things. They also have medical...

...Spices Spanish, Dutch and British Silk, Porcelain, Tea and Opium • Why were British and Chinese world views so different in 19th century? The Chinese were an inward looking nation, content with minimal trade, while the British were determined to expand to establish British traditions around the world. The Chinese were a very cautious nation. They were quite wary of foreigners and considered them all as barbarians. They were always quite threatened when a large number of “outsiders” would come along the shores of China. However, the British nation differed. The British always wanted more power and they always wanted to conquer. If they discover new land, it was always an advantage for them and when “outsiders” come along the shores of England, the British always had the upper hand. • Why did China lose the Opium wars? The British had well-trained soldiers and modern day weapons, such as muskets, and advanced navy ships. The Chinese, however, only had part-time soldiers and these soldiers were usually armed with bows and arrows and knives. This resulted in China’s loss and a treaty being made between both the Chinese and British. However with this treaty, it was known as one of the unequal treaties to China because the British did not face any requirements under the terms. PART C • What are the positive and negative outcomes of China trading with the West? China Trading with the West Positive Negative • Had many allies to assist with China’s crises • Trade of western goods introduced...

...Hsiang-Wang Liu World Civilizations III November 11, 2012 The Wealth and Poverty of Nations Why Some Are So Rich and Some Are So Poor The book, The Wealth and Poverty of Nations: Why some are so rich and some are so poor, discusses that the characteristics of a society’s cultural history is the key to explaining success, in today’s global world. It also discusses why they achieve economic success while others remain mired in poverty. This book was written by David Landes, a professor of history and economics at Harvard University. The book was first published in 1998. It is based off of Adam Smith’s, The Wealth of Nations, written in 1776. The moral of this book describes how the writer explores the differences between the West and the Middle East, Asia, Africa, and Latin America. The book explains how our people got to a certain place in the world and the difficulties getting there. David Landes believes that this topic is overdue for discussion and feels he should step up to the subject. Landes starts with discussing the geography of the nations. He mentions in chapter one that many rich countries lie in the temperate zones, particularly in the northern hemisphere and the poor countries are in the tropics and semi- tropics. Philosophers believe that “this reveals the deepseated optimistic bias with which we approach problems of development and the reluctance to admit the vast differences in initial conditions with which today’s poor countries are faced compared...

...they thought this land was unfeasible to them. A century after the Dutch made first landfall Captain James Cook took an interest of the Continent. He set sail from England in 1770 to map the eastern shore of Australia, an untouched part of the continent. He set anchor in Botany Bay (which he named for its botanical specimens he found there) and began recording results of what he encountered. Captain James Cook first encounter with the aboriginals was unwelcome with a volley of spears. Even though of the greeting they gave him, he still put a good word in his report: “They may appear to some to be the most wretched people on earth, but in reality they are far happier than we Europeans” (Time Life 49). Captain James Cook took possession of the eastern coast and called it New Wales to distinguish it from New Holland. England received Cook’s report and took little interest in establishing colonies because they lost in the American Revolution in 1775. England did not want to make the same mistake that happened in America with the colonies fighting for independence, the idea would send shivers down their spine. An esquire of Captain Cook, Joseph Banks, had an idea that New Wales would be a suitable place for England’s excess convicts that overpopulated the prisons. Before America’s independence from England, it served as a dumping ground for England’s over populated prisons and those in poverty. Captain Cook would agree with Banks idea; New Wales could serve as a settlement...

...Global Education Systems Name: Institution: Global Education Systems Education system outlines how education is obtained from the trainers. The education systems differ from one country to another. This is mainly dictated by the region or other factors. From a general point education system is localized to the country according to its education policies (Terri, 2000). From a global perspective, education is compulsory for all children between the ages of three years and generally fifteen years. The education levels vary with the basic necessities of the country. For example, the education system in the USA is only compulsory between the age of 3 years and 14 years (Jan, 2009). Looking at the basic education system, it can be sub-divided into four basic sections each taking a different duration. The first part is the pre-school level. This level varies from country to country mostly running from two years to three years (Terri, 2000). This level is not compulsory in most countries but it is very essential since it creates the educational base for the child. In most countries, the teachers in this level are not employed by the government thus this poses a major challenge in the education sector. This also makes the level to be omitted when the education system states of the years spent in school. The classes undertaken in pre-school education are most on basic skills and memory training. The children are subjected to several speed test and storytelling sessions which helps...

...1815-Napoleon’s empire ended, and nationalism began its rise. Rising nationalism would eventually be a leading cause of World War I. 11. In the 17th century, witchcraft hysteria took hold in England, Scotland, Switzerland, Germany, New England, and various other countries. Many people, mainly old women, were accused of witchcraft with no evidence. In the 1950s, many American people were accused of being communist sympathizers with no evidence. These events mirrored the witchcraft hysteria. 12. In 1648, the Thirty Year’s War ended. The Peace of Westphalia was created, allowing all German states to determine their own religion. 13. In 1699, the Treaty of Karlowitz was created. Austria took control of Hungary, Transylvania, Croatia, and Slovenia. The empire never became centralized due to all of the national groups. Austrian nationalism was a driving force behind World War I. 14. 1697-1698-Peter the Great of Russia visits the west, and decides to ‘westernize’...

...During the last years of the nineteenth century, England, France and Germany entered into a keen rivalry (competition, antagonism). The economic and financial rivalry (competition) is decisive and the high stake is the control of existing markets or of new markets as well as raw materials and, in particular, of the colonies’ precious metals. This rivalry, however, promotes a crucial scientific and technical competition. They had to improve the machine tool for a better competitiveness of the industries. They needed to ensure better health conditions for the hardworking population (the labor force) and for soldiers engaged in close or distant conflicts; better travel conditions, quality armaments, etc...

...‘There is no “single” Asian past. We must always acknowledge the diversity of experiences related to class, gender, ethnicity, religion, caste, family and kinship arrangements, or other indices of social differentiation, to fully appreciate the complex history of Asia.’ The area known to us as Asia sits on the eastern side of the landmass of Eurasia and is the largest continent, encompassing a staggering 17 million square miles. Asia is home to a variety of cultures, religions, governments and mindsets, giving it a wide base for a complex history involving largely different groups of people. These different groups, or ethnicities, all formed their own histories over time, which when combined together give Asia more than one past, they arise into an intricate and comprehensive history fashioned by a diversity of experiences. Therefore, there is no ‘single’ Asian past; we must delve into each single experience to gain insight into the prolific and wide ranging history that gathers under the one banner of ‘Asia’. Each country within Asia has its own geographic links to other nations and cultures. These links were expanded on by exploration, trade routes and missionary ventures. These vital networks allowed cultural influences to travel from country to country, resulting in each nation in Asia receiving different influences from the next. In turn, this led to widespread variety amongst individual countries. These networks were invaluable to allow the able interaction of cultures...
