Is Korean Unification Possable
Number of words: 701 - Number of pages: 3.... a county that was thought to be lost could not come without a price. The county sulfured much in their time of rejuvination but their political leaders have managed to guide them on a path that stays clear of any extreme misfortune. The county did so well in fact that it has become one of Asia's leading exporters and the home of some of the most well known companies. South Korea exports items from countries like Hundi and Samsung, names we know well even over here. The north however was not as lucky.
After the war North Korea went into communism rule and was supported by the Soviet Union. .....

Greek History And Food
Number of words: 1548 - Number of pages: 6.... diet. The average Grecian eats 50 lbs. of cheese a year. This ranks second in world cheese consumption behind France. The most popular Greek cheese is Feta, which is a smooth cottage type of cheese.
Greeks drink a lot of wine. If you are a first-time visitor, you probably better order your wine aretsinoto (without resin), or your mouth will pucker. Retsina, or resinated wine, has a distinctive flavor and tastes better when chilled. Greek food has been influenced by many sources. The area that Greece occupies was the ancient city-states of Athens, Sparta, and Corinth. Their individual style .....

The Telescope
Number of words: 1083 - Number of pages: 4.... controversy between followers of the traditional astronomy, the cosmos, and those who favored the naked eye. It was the first extension of man’s senses and demonstrated that ordinary observers could see things that Aristotle had not dreamed of. It therefore helped shift authority in the observation of nature from men to instruments. In short, it was the prototype of modern scientific instruments. But was not the invention of scientists; rather, it was the product of craftsmen. For that reason, much of it’s origin is inaccessible to us since craftsmen were by large illiterate and there .....

Electoral College Is No Longer
Number of words: 330 - Number of pages: 2.... nada ZIP!
Perhaps revision is the answer to this problem or maybe it is just fine the way it is.
After all it is a simple fool proof plan. YOU get none or you get all. It doesn't take a
math whiz to figure that one out now does it. And with the people nowaday, we probably
don't need anything oo complicated. But is it really fair?
We are after all a DEMOCRATIC nation. Which means the power lies in the people,
but it wouldn't really seem that way if more people want a candiaite to be president, but
another man gets it just because he won the electoral votes. Revision is de .....

FDR
Number of words: 866 - Number of pages: 4.... since the Civil War.
“It seemed as if they (the citizens of the United States) would do anything, if only someone would tell them what to do,” said wife, Eleanor Roosevelt, about the throngs of Americans crowded around their radios listening to President, Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s inauguration on March 4th, 1933. He would be the 32nd President.
He had promised a recipe for recovery to the very same millions who’s’ president had abandoned them, and it made him an over-night sensation.
Charm and persuasion was what the citizens needed, not someone telling then that all hope was .....

Television Vs Movies
Number of words: 474 - Number of pages: 2.... deciding on which movie to see is often difficult. Also, when people go to the movies, they do not have the luxury of being in their own homes. Frequently, people choose to stay home and watch television over going out to the movies.
Television offers many things that going to the movies does not. TV offers viewing in the comfort of one’s own home. When watching TV, one has the option of doing several other tasks at the same time. You might prepare dinner, do some homework, or talk on the phone, all while watching TV. The time that you invest in TV is completely variable. You mi .....

Industrail Revolution
Number of words: 968 - Number of pages: 4.... of cloth had been much the same for thousands of years. By 1800 a host of new and faster processes were in use in both manufacture and transportation.
Several systems of making goods had grown up by the time of the Industrial Revolution. In country districts families produced most of the supplies that they used, while in the cities merchandise was made in shops, and manufacturing was strictly regulated by the guilds and by the government. The goods made in these shops were limited and costly. The merchants needed cheaper items, as well as larger quantities, for their growing trade. Th .....

Stalin
Number of words: 415 - Number of pages: 2.... (see for example, Barry Rubin, Modern Dictators, New
American Library, 1988).
Since the death of Stalin in 1953, it is ironic that perhaps no political issue has been of greater importance to the countries of the
former Soviet Union than dealing with Stalin and the system he created. As the great Soviet poet Yevgeny Yevtushenko wrote in
1962:
Mute stood the soldiers on guard
bronzed by the breeze
Thin smoke curled above the coffin.
And breath seeped through the chinks
as they bore him out of the mausoleum doors.
Slowly the coffin flo .....

The Radical Stage Of The French Revolution (1792-1793)
Number of words: 1090 - Number of pages: 4.... with the threat of war
against Austria and Prussia looming, it was vital that order was to be
maintained during such tumultuous times. Although the constitution was
already enshrined and the citizens had their freedom and liberties, there
was still plenty of public dissent and disapproval as to whether or not
these laws would help create a new government and prevent the country from
breaking apart. The people had come this far and were not prepared to watch
their efforts lead to failure or the restoration of an absolute monarch. As
a result, the radical forces were able to gain the support .....

The Great Purge Of Russia By Stalin
Number of words: 358 - Number of pages: 2.... with Stalin or any of his policies. This upset the leader and he wanted to crush this opposition the only way he knew how-- terror. The program of terror he began was called “The Great Purge”. He even formed a secret police.
These actions spread fear throughout Russia. He eliminated anyone who gave a threat to his power. These people, some innocent, were sent to labor camps or even killed.
