The Empire was most prominent during the 13th and 14th century being ruled by Genghis Khan and his successors. During this time, the Mongolian Empire acquired large amounts of territory and was able to keep a sustainable rule under what is known as "Pax Mongolica". Pax Mongolica was the era of Mongolian peace where trade routes were established "making it possible for travelers and traders to cross back and forth within Eurasia" (Safavi-Abbasi, 2007). The Mongolian Empire was the start of a new era of transportation and trade as they provided, through migration, many new ideas and cultures, creating an early notion of globalization. Through the innovations set in place by the Mongolian Empire, greater emporia's were able to follow suit, expanding on the new ideas brought into action by the Mongols. "The presence of the Mongol states was essential for shaping the emporia’s local strategies of survival and development, in their role as components of a commercial as well as political mechanism that connected the Mediterranean markets to the great landmass of Eurasia beyond the Black Sea" (Di Cosmo, 2010). What made the Mongolian Empire so special was the opening of what is known as "Silk Road". The Silk Road was a trade network that connected the eastern territories to the Western territories...

The elements are not only available but exist in abundance within most of the regions around the world. Those only need to be searched or explored and benefits drawn to the utmost in order to gradually establish a civilization by using our body and mind bestowed by the Creator as the best of all the creations on earth. It takes time to attain any level of civilization in any country or region. It is a slow process which grows with the extent of time given to it and the amount of efforts made on it. There is hardly any standard parameter by which to judge the level or the measure of civilization attained except their standings as projected at the world stage in terms of progress and development.

...Courtney Friedman Term Paper: International Terrorism (Due Week 10) Professor Smith 5/23/14 CRJ 440 Terrorism, it is a well-known term, every person has all heard of it, but yet do we really know what it is. Terrorism is in the eyes of most, a meaningless hate crime, which has no true reason behind it. The terrorism mindset is people who want to create terror among civilization. They are trained to disturb peace, and to break social harmony. Terrorism is also a horrible threat to the modern world and modern society. It has become a problem around the world, not just in the United States. Many innocent people are killed by terrorist and their acts of terrorism. An individual can see terrorism in multiple forms, but not limited to: Bombing, hijacking, cross border terrorist activities and massacres on a massive scale, in addition to many others not listed. Its consequences are very frightening. Though much effort is put into eliminating terrorism, it is impossible to get rid of it until some strict laws are devised.

...The Best Way to Eradicate Poverty Major Barbara is a play demonstrating how the poor will not flourish from accepting charity. Rather, capitalism is the best structure for everyone to live under. The play features Major Barbara, an officer in the Salvation Army who has dedicated her life to helping the poor. She soon realizes that charity is not the best option to abolish poverty. Giving the poor jobs and letting them earn a living is the best way for people to live. Poverty cannot be 100 percent eliminated, however business owners giving the lower-class jobs will help relieve the poor. Capitalism works by promoting hard work for its citizens. Hard work yields a much more productive society. In Major Barbara, Undershaft is the capitalist who shows Barbara that giving the poor the skills to work on their own is much more beneficial than simply donating to them. Unemployment is the foundation of poverty. To employ citizens is to eradicate poverty. Undershaft knows that the poor will only become poorer if they do not have the proper skills to survive. The Salvation Army and other charitable organizations do not promote self-sufficiency. People are not happy when they cannot take care of themselves. People accepting help from others often feel guilty and ashamed of what they are taking. A recent study has shown the happiness levels of European countries that have recently switched to a capitalistic society. Suicide rates have greatly decreased since the switch, thus demonstrating...

...1. Introduction 1.1 Definitions of entrepreneur An entrepreneur is an enterprising individual who builds capital through risk and/or initiative. The term was originally a loanword from French and was first defined by the Irish-French economist Richard Cantillon. Entrepreneur in English is a term applied to a person who is willing to help launch a new venture or enterprise and accept full responsibility for the outcome. Over time, scholars have defined the term in different ways. Here are some of their definitions. a. 1725: Richard Cantillon: An entrepreneur is a person who pays a certain price for a product to resell it at an uncertain price, thereby making decisions about obtaining and using the resources while consequently admitting the risk of enterprise. b. 1803: J.B. Say: An entrepreneur is an economic agent who unites all means of production- land of one, the labour of another and the capital of yet another and thus produces a product. By selling the product in the market he pays rent of land, wages to labour, interest on capital and what remains is his profit. He shifts economic resources out of an area of lower and into an area of higher productivity and greater yield. c. 1934: Schumpeter: Entrepreneurs are innovators who use a process of shattering the status quo of the existing products and services, to set up new products, new services. d. 1949: C.H. Danhoff: Entrepreneurship is an activity or function and not a specific individual or occupation . . ....
