The Roman empire slowly took over lisrel. When the Romans found Masada they thought that Masada was laughing in there face because their was no way up with out getting killed. Well the Romans first try cut off their food sources by building a wall. When they realize that didn't work they went to plan-B which was to build a huge ramp. When they saw that this was working they started to build weapon call the battle ram it was use to knock down the wall around the city.
The history of Masada is known for how many Jews they that was dead. It's was not known for its beautiful buildings and its architecture amazement.

But before the Romans it was a very peaceful city everyone help each other. After the Romans show up the people started to get scared there was nowhere to go. The Jews tried to fight with bands of warriors call zealots but their was to many Romans soldiers to fight. The Romans thought the Jews were dehydrated because they cut of there water supply but little did they know the Jews had water houses. Life was hard with limited food supplies but they had plenty of food ever though Romans cut of their food supplies.
Although the food supplies were cut the Jews still praying to God to end this.The Jews life was all about worshipping God and taking class. Their were framers,workers and doctors their wasn't a lot of warriors. When the Romans came all the people that work in the fields or with people had to drop everything and fight against the Romans. Masada had a lot water for being in middle of the desert. Masada had a huge water system so like today the water you drink might have came from your toilet that's kinda what Masada did our system today is a little bit more high
Even though the current city is under the church its beginnings were not at all related to Christianity. The old legend tells the reader that two brothers, Romulus and Remus, found the city. In reality group of people settled in the seven hills and the population grew and the Roman population came about (Trauman). From there on the city went under various ruling strategies such as being senatorial republic to finally being under the emperor (Cowling). Then onwards it became the capital of the Roman Empire. Even though the Roman outskirts land was very organized like a grid pattern, this was not the case at the capital. The capital never followed a structure (Kostof 1991). Being built near river Tiber is the only strategy it f...
No one knows what will happen in his or her life whether it is a trivial family dispute or a civil war. Ishmael Beah and Mariatu Kamara are both child victims of war with extremely different life stories. Both of them are authors who have written about their first-hand experience of the truth of the war in order to voice out to the world to be aware of what is happening. Beah wrote A Long Way Gone while Kamara wrote The Bite of the Mango. However, their autobiographies give different information to their readers because of different points of view. Since the overall story of Ishmael Beah includes many psychological and physical aspects of war, his book is more influential and informative to the world than Kamara’s book.
...perly, so everything went wrong. From their poor services, food, water, and sanitation, people started to die because of diseases which mainly broke out with Typhus. After the situations became bad, they separated the camp by adding another camp a mile and a half away. Then when the situations went worse, they changed the second camp to be a temporary hospital and rehab camp. But regardless of their efforts Typhus still spread, killing five hundred people a day. When this information broke out to people, it was seen as a living nightmare. There was a massive amount of people that started to die and people started burning the dead people’s bodies. They had no other choice, but to burn them. From the amount of people dying, the British army had to replace troops for bulldozers to move the thousands of bodies. After this horror story, many Jews immigrated to Palestine.
Judea is one of the places Rome expanded to during The Pax Romana. After King Herod’s death, control of Judea was divided among his sons. Rome did not like this form of government, so they took over. Ruling over Judea was not peaceful, so the Jewish natives fiercely resisted. After a lot of fighting Judea finally found peace in the 60s AD.

Malathion is an organophosphate insecticide (NPIC, 2009). This class of insecticides kills insects by disrupting their brains and nervous systems (Rauner, B. 2016). These chemicals, unfortunately, also have the potential to harm the brains and nervous systems of animals and humans. Specifically, these chemicals stop a key enzyme in the nervous system, cholinesterase, from working. While certain classes are more poisonous than others, over all the effects of Malathion depend on the concentration of exposure, length of time, and way the person is exposed. Malathion is also an ingredient in shampoos, regulated by the USDA to control head lice. While the risks and dangers of Malathion sound daunting, the actual research done shows that these are simply potential harms. In fact, Malathion, when used in moderate doses, typically shows a very low level of toxicity. The possible harm caused from Malathion is generally in extreme cases, with exceptional subjects, and in very high levels of exposure. When it comes down to it, Malathion is a perfectly safe to use
To begin with the holocaust had a great impact in history even though it was a time of disaster, murder, and discrimination. It was a time in which Adolf Hitler,German politician and Nazi party leader, wanted all Jews suffering or dead. Adolf Hitler turned everyone against the Jews because he believed that they were to wealthy and too powerful so he wanted to eliminate all of them. The Jews went through a lot of suffering and pain. The German soldiers which took commands from their leader, Adolf Hitler, put some Jews to work and killed others. Many Jews didn't get to work they were killed instantly. All women were separated from the man and woman were mostly killed instantly only some got the opportunity to work. The some ways that the jews were killed is that they were put into gas chambers by tons or shot by soldiers. Jews were also dying by starvation dehydration soldiers would not give them enough food or water. They would only want those with blue eyes and blonde hair they discriminated all the others. Soldiers would not only kill the Jews but torture them for anything they did. The Jews would be transported from camp to camp walking even in the worst weather conditions which also many died from it.
To Kill a Mockingbird, the novel by Harper Lee embodies a work of Southern literature, set in the 1930s in a small town in Alabama. The book’s genre exemplifies a coming-of-age historical fiction story. The narrator, a young girl named Scout Finch, describes the lessons she and her brother Jem learn when their father, a lawyer named Atticus, defends an African American man who stands accused of raping a white woman. The novel’s premise revolves around the efforts of a father raising his children and guiding them in their moral development. Along the way, the book deals with the themes of courage, prejudice and maturity. These three concepts are defined differently by Atticus than by most of the other people in the town where he lives. According to Atticus, courage means doing what remains as right and resisting what remains as wrong, even if other people oppose you. In contrast to the prejudice of the townspeople, Atticus believes it important to treat everyone equally. Maturity, in Atticus’ view, refers to having a sense of conscience and seeking to protect those who remain innocent. As these definitions show, Atticus Finch displays a strong sense of ethics. His goal as a parent remains to pass his values on to his children. This paper will argue that Scout and Jem learn the true meanings of courage, prejudice and maturity through the influence of their father and the example he sets for them.

Takashi Murakami is an incredible, talented Japanese artist whose modern artwork has attracted even the biggest names in the industry for collaborations, such as Kanye West and Louis Vuitton. Although Murakami does not think of his artwork as Pop Art, his work does have a Pop Art feel to it. To people without the knowledge of history behind his work, they will think that his work is happy and colorful, but behind the bright colors and the happy caricatures, Murakami tells a story that was inspired by the struggles of discriminated people.

The Jewish people's problems began long before the Common Era; they were persecuted long ago by King Nebuchadnezzer. Because of the treaty that was signed with King Nebuchadnezzer the Jews were uprooted from their home in Jerusalem and were forced into exile in the city of Babylon. The Jews were not treated poorly, though they were bitter because of being taken away form their beloved Jerusalem. Due to this bitterness they became more intensely Jewish than ever before. (1)
