    As if the new republic did not have enough problems, they also had to deal with the fact that there was a general dislike felt for the new regime by most of the population from both the left and the right sides. This all went back to the fact that it was these politicians who signed the Treaty of Versailles. The people found it difficult to accept that the war had been lost. From the home front, it was not obvious that the war had been lost, and so it was difficult to understand why the politicians

    Thomas Jefferson strove to create a new Christian society unlike the monarchies found throughout Europe. This new government ideology, referred to as a republic, came to fruition as the elite and affluent white men representing the interests of the commoners within their state. The most important feature of this new American Republic was that support by the commoners was required for the government to function properly. Therefore, I believe this unique Republic structure

    As I finish watching the movie, shattered glass, I saw that Stephan glass is a unique person when it comes to writing.

    In 2014, Ashraf Ghani was elected as the new leader of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan. This was the second time in the country’s history that a direct election was held and a position of power was democratically transferred. As a matter of fact, the country has made progress since 2001, when a United States-led invasion, with the help of UN, toppled the Taliban government. After decades of being ruled mostly under an emirate, monarchy, and dictatorship, Afghanistan now runs under a democracy

    Glass Movie Reflection

    As I watched the movie, I noticed a variety of hints that made me question Glass’ character and I was a little frustrated that the other characters weren’t able to pick up on them. I first sensed that Glass was a little odd when he kept downgrading himself and his own work.
