Excerpt:

"What aspects of Iberian society were transferred to the New World?

The distinctive features of Iberian societies became part of their American culture. They were heavily urban; many peasants lived in small centers. Commoners coming to America sought to become nobles holding Indian-worked estates. Strong patriarchal ideas were reflected in the family life, which was based on encomiendas, large estates worked by Indians."

India's Achievements

The following figures and facts are what I would term as India's contributions towards the modern world. Many of these facts were attained from various websites such as Nation master, Wikipedia, Encyclopedia, India's Tourism Ministry and other major sources. See the below figures as what India has compared to the rest of the world in Ranking. The facts are ordered by ranks for your viewing pleasure. All credits go towards their respective sources and towards me and my websites prminc.org/apmastersite and 4awindow.com

The Armenian genocide: The sad truth

It is called by many names but the most popular ones include Armenian Holocaust, The Great Calamity, Armenian Massacre but the name I prefer using, when considering the single greatest event that has the most influence throughout the 20th century and into the 21st century, would be the Armenian Genocide. Unlike the many other events and marvels that spawned in the 20th century, the Armenian Genocide was the first systematic genocide to take place in the modern world, in the name of political ambitions, religious intolerance and racial discrimination. Moreover, unlike the other wonders of the 20th century, this genocide is the second most studied genocide in history and is acknowledged by only twenty-one nations out of the one-hundred-and-ninety-three member global community.

What can we really do for Darfur?

Build the Pressure on Sudan... That is all we can do for Darfur right now. I want to give you a first look at the new Save Darfur Coalition TV ad.

The ad is powerful, pointing to years of Sudan's broken promises and empty agreements to the international community. All the while, the images remind us that the people of Darfur continue to suffer - and that the death toll in the world's worst humanitarian crisis is still rising.
