The Dog Days Of The World State
The Dog Days of the World State Although the technology required to modify humans to such an
extent that it becomes a problem is still a few years away, writers have spent decades exploring the
possible impacts of eugenics and human modification. Brave New World, a novel written by Aldous
Huxley in 1932 during the first wave of support for eugenics, is a classic example of such an
exploration, focusing on a futuristic society made up almost entirely of genetically engineered "test
tube" babies. Todd J. Schmid of DePauw University states that the novel deals with the question of
what humanity is defined as and how genetic engineering can impact human nature, making the
claim that "while genetics can alter the physical and even mental ... Show more content on

Instead of understanding what John is doing as he throws their soma out the window and explains
that they are now free, the Deltas panic over the loss of soma more than over their apparent
imprisonment within their society. More surprising is Bernard Marx's reaction to the chaos (Huxley
143–146). While it is understandable that the Deltas, who are low on the social ladder within the
World State and are therefore accustomed to submitting to others, do not grasp the concept of
rebellion, Marx, an intelligent Alpha who does not agree with every World State teaching,
reluctantly involves himself in the chaos that follows; even so, he only tries to get help, not wanting
to cause any problems that would get him into trouble (Huxley 147). Despite the fact that Marx has
been unhappy within the World State for the entire novel, the Alpha is still unable to revolt, afraid
that the consequences would be intolerable. After the attempted insurrection, once Marx realizes that
he will be punished for involving himself, the Alpha immediately tries to take back and explain his
actions (Huxley 155–156). Instead of standing up for his belief in the corruption of the World State,
he cracks under the pressure and jumps to apologizing and begging for forgiveness, proving that he
is unable to rebel. Even the way in which the police placate the situation is a testament to how

The State Of The World. To The Seventeen-Year-Old Grandchild

The United States : The Greatest Nation Of The World
INTRODUCTION The United States of America, the self–proclaimed sole remaining superpower,
often touts that it is the greatest nation in the world. Yet, when the data is analyzed, this claim is
proven time and time again to be wrong, whether it is math or science, literacy or numbers,
household income or workforce. Time and time again, and the numbers continue to slip. Healthcare
is no exception. In 2012, the United States ranked thirty–second worldwide in life expectancy
(Avendano and Kawachi 2014). Of the thirty–four Organization for Economic Co–operation and
Development (OECD) nations in 2010, the United States ranked twenty–sixth in infant mortality
(MacDorman et al. 2010). In a 1998 study of thirteen developed nations (Australia, Belgium,
Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Japan, Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, United Kingdom,
and United States), the United States ranked, on average, twelfth. The rankings for the United States
on each of the sixteen health indicators was: thirteenth for low–birth–weight percentages; thirteenth
for neonatal mortality and infant mortality overall; eleventh for post neonatal mortality; thirteenth
for years of potential life lost (excluding external causes); eleventh for life expectancy at one year

The United States During World War I
The United States during World War I extended their "military, economic, and/or political control"
to other weaker countries like, Hawaii, Cuba, Guam, and Puerto Rico. They were following the
policy of Imperialism.1 Imperialism allows for nations to be able to trade with one another and
businesses preferred it because it helped the United States economy. Nationalism is when the people
of a nation are under one government and this played a key factor in starting world war one. There
was tension between Germany and France who both wanted rule of Morocco. "Nationalism led
European nations to compete for the largest army and navy, or the greatest industrial development."2
Due to nationalism, allies were starting to form between the nations. This was happening all
throughout Europe in the 1800s. Ultimately nationalism is what wrecked Europe 's empires. Nations
wanted powerful and large armies so militarism was also a result of WWI. Whenever a nation would
get a large army, another nation thought they had to step it up and have an even larger nation. Britain
was a nation that was equipped with a big army so Germany competed with Britain for a larger
army. These armies were growing at a fast rate and this was causing tension between the nations
during peace time. During WWII communism was a way of life in Russia. Communism is the belief
that all all property is community property. Equality is the social class and there is no government.

The United States Of The World War I
Throughout human history, there has always been a nation that has stood head and shoulders above
the rest. From the Roman Empire of the ancient world, to the British Empire of the modern era,
empires have risen and fallen. The United States of America, it seems, is the modern day equivalent
of these empires–being the most powerful and influential nation on Earth–but how did America
compare internationally during the Second World War to now? Prior to the Japanese Bombing of
Pearl Harbor in 1941, the U.S. had an army that ranked 19th in the world: an army smaller than that
of Portugal! (3) Today the U.S. has an army that is by far the greatest in the world. This, however, is
only the tip of the iceberg when investigating how the U.S. was seen, and how it competed
differently and similarly, in the early days of World War Two and 2016. Strength can be evaluated in
many different ways: from economic power, to militaristic prowess, to influence in foreign
countries. Today, America seems to be the most powerful nation on Earth when all of these
categories are taken into account. The economy of the United States is so strong, that it's GDP
accounts for 22.44% of the gross world product. The U.S. economy is worth 17.41 trillion dollars:
trillions of dollars more than the world's second most powerful economy: China. Outside of the U.S,

(Internet Source). The combination of economic stability and military power has led to the United

However, recent complications have seen America lose a lot of its influence on the global stage and

The U.S. endorsed the concept of capitalism, liberalism, and democracy. Therefore, gave way for
the US to rise as a superpower at the end of the Cold War. Given the segregated global context
owing to ideological difference, the U.S. intended to gain supremacy over the Marxist ideology of
other regions and nation–states based on capitalism and liberal democracy (Taeheok 223). However,
we see the United States hegemony on a swift decline in places like Latin America, the Middle East
and Far East Asia. The reason that the United States global governance is on decline is due to the
rise of China and Russia's conscious for policy coordination and investments. China has invested
billions of dollars in South America in order to help economic growth in the region. President Xi

World War II : The United States
Before World War II, the American people supported isolationism due to the general belief that
America should not have been a part of World War I. Furthermore, people believed World War I

changed on December 7, 1941. On this morning, the Japanese military bombed the Pearl Harbor
Naval base in Hawaii. I think American citizens view changed because they were attacked on their
soil and a total of 2,403 lives were lost; 2,008 soldiers in the Navy, 109 marines, 218 army, and 68
civilians. Additionally, there was over a thousand injuries. I agree with the popular argument that

In addition, President Roosevelt gained the trust of almost all of the Americans after he led the

spread. They valued and appreciated democracy so much. Almost everyone was in agreement that
democracy should be defended. I believe, these reasons were why America came together to support
the war. I think the expectations placed on the American people were necessary. It was crucial for
the American people to ration, recycle and sacrifice a portion of what they had to help their country
win the war. If America refused to come together, the Axis powers would have won the war. The
U.S. troops would not have had the resources they needed to stay alive, never mind fight. The
mobilization and the persistent work of industry workers to switch to wartime production and
manufacture guns, ammunition and other items were critical. The rationing of foods, gas, and even
clothing was expected of all Americans. As well as an effort to recycle materials needed for the war
such as rubber, silk stockings, tin, cooking fat, and steel; scrap drives were held and young children

The Place I Am Referencing Is The World State From Aldous...
Envision a utopia in which every factor that could lead to one's unhappiness was eliminated. There
would be no family, no love, and no emotions. There can be no forms of high art that stir up revelry
in people. These things lead only to heartbreak, loss, and depression in the eyes of this world's
leaders. With these negative emotions, the utopian society cannot achieve social stability. However,
a new drug, Soma, does away with any negative emotions and makes life a "joyful place." The place
I am referencing is the World State from Aldous Huxley's novel, Brave New World. In the World
State, citizens are stripped of emotion and the truth about their situation in order to achieve the
social stability their leaders desire, but is their happiness really worth it if it is fake? Huxley presents
the incompatibility of social stability and truth by illustrating the constant struggle between valuing
one or the other in order to achieve a world without conflict. The most prominent solution the World
State leaders have for social instability is the drug soma. It is a drug that clouds any negative
emotions and replaces them with joyful hallucinations that take you on a so–called "holiday" from
reality. Mustapha Mond, the Resident World Controller of Western Europe, believes that soma is the

Why The World State Is More Desirable Essay
Why the World State is More Desirable
In the dystopian novel by Aldous Huxley, "Brave New World", introduces two societies, the World
State and the Reservation. The World State is the more desirable society in the book as it portrays a
better approach of having a stable society, handling stress, having better education, compared to the
Reservation. The World State has twelve controllers who regulate the lives of their citizens.
Although some might argue that the World State is dystopian, it is, in fact, the Reservation that is the
dystopian society. Huxley portrays the World State as a peaceful and prosperous place as it is
organized, clean, and everyone is content and has a part in society; whereas the Reservation is
unclean, without education or structure, where everyone is running around doing whatever they
want, therefore, making the World State the more desirable society.
Stability in the World State is created by the government and its rulers who control the World State
by having soma, a caste system, conditioning, and biologically engineering humans, thus, having
much control over their citizens. With this control, the citizens live in peace and are content and
working in society, all feeling important and involved. Although the citizens are controlled by the
government's leaders, the people are oblivious to this and still live happily. The only controller
Huxley introduces in the book is Mustapha Mond. Mustapha is seen in the book multiple times,

This drug helps the people repress their authentic emotions and actions. In case something tragic
were to happen to the people of the World State and they couldn't be happy or anything equivalent
instead of taking time to evaluate their feelings and find a real solution they just take soma to make
those emotions go away "There 's always soma to calm your anger, to reconcile you to your
enemies, to make you patient and long–suffering. In the past, you could only accomplish these
things by making a great effort and after years of hard moral training. Now, you swallow two or
three half–gram tablets, and there you are. Anybody can be virtuous now. Christianity without tears,
that 's what soma is" (Huxley 285). Mustapha Mond wants the people of the World State to witness
and experience how easy it is to forget about old emotions that only get in the way of consuming
and not producing just by taking soma and nothing more. He wants them to see that by taking soma
all their problems will go away, Mond uses the idea that if it worked for a few people then it will
work for everyone else and that people don't need to pay attention to their actions or feelings if the
can suppress long enough until they die. Through and through the novel people tend to make a

There is really a copious supply of different inventions with roots in the industrial revolution of the

connectedness that would have been unimaginable just a short time before.
This "awakening" of the American psyche to the outside world did not necessarily discredit

More so than that, Huntington was writing during a time when the United States was the world's
only military superpower which lead to the idea that America should take the lead in establishing the
"new world order", one which would be dominated by the United States and their allies. Because of
this, American diplomats and officials were faced with regional, religious and ethnic conflicts that,
as Huntington argues, could not be easily solved. During this time the United States were making
major decisions about the layout and status of the new world order. It becomes clear that Huntington
would believe future conflicts would arise from cultural differences due to previous cultural clashes
and that the most powerful country in the world, the United States, was also unable to create
solutions for conflicts fueled by cultural differences.
There are also smaller factors that could have had an impact on Huntington's outlook and thesis. In

warned that the country was "undergoing the greatest invasion in its history, a migration of millions
of illegal aliens a year from Mexico." An influx of immigrants, who bring their culture, customs and

The United States Into World War I
The First World War was once one of the most harmful and deadliest wars of all time. A few
countries participated within the battle together with Russia, Great Britain, Germany, and France.
When the European nations went to war, Americans wanted nothing to do with the war. The twenty–
eighth U.S. president Woodrow Wilson, led America through World War I. Wilson was a college
professor, university president and Democratic governor of New Jersey before winning the White
House in 1912. Woodrow Wilson asked Congress for a declaration of war to make the world "safe
for democracy." President Wilson could not prevent getting America involved in WWI, because the
Germans attacked and threatened American ships holding civilians hostage the allies would have
lost (The White House).
The first years of WWI, the U.S. made certain to remain out of the way. Germany's resumption of
submarine attacks on passenger and merchant ships became the primary motivation behind Wilson's
decision to lead the United States into World War I. Following the sinking of an unarmed French
boat, the Sussex, in the English Channel, Wilson threatened to sever diplomatic relations with
Germany unless the German Government refrained from attacking all passenger ships and allowed
the crews of enemy merchant vessels to abandon their ships prior to any attack. The Germans
promised that they would not sink unarmed passenger ships without warning, however, they
promised twice and twice they broke their promise. Americans

Americans won important battles in America against the English like the battle of Thames in 1813,

fighting against other countries. The war brought new tactics and weaponry that were never seen
before such as trench warfare, the use of airplanes and machine guns used in battle. Being that this
was the first international conflict there was a sense of national eagerness and preparedness, which
was felt on Yale 's campus. In fact, Yale 's President Haley stated, " One is to be too much prepared
for war; the other is to be too little prepared. I believe we are in the latter boat." ( Chapter 3) Some
students went on and left school as soon as the war broke out and went to fight on a side such as
Trubee Davison. The U.S created volunteer training camps in many states, and some students even
started a military force on campus. After these summer training camps, the men who participated
were itching to get involved overseas and fight. Flying in war was something done by aristocratic

Under the effect of conditioning, her feeling toward the beauty was "horrible" and she did not even

perspective about sexual activities is greatly affected by the conditioning. To Lenina, making love is
just like recreation. When Bernard mentioned about being alone with her, she replied that they
would be alone all night but her actual mean was about making love with him. In the World State,
being alone is considered odd or queer but having sex is an ordinary activity that even the children
do so. Later, while Bernard and Lenina flew back, Bernard "began to fondle her breasts" (Ch.6). It is
ironic that Bernard's action was considered offensive and Lenina was supposed to feel
uncomfortable but she was not. In fact, she actually felt relieved as she thought he was all right

President Wilson had no choice but to enter World War I to protect the American people and our
way of life. Sometimes it is necessary to stay neutral and to not engage. Other times it is our duty to
engage the enemy to protect our families, our freedom, and our way of life. President Wilson did all
he could to remain diplomatic and finding a solution other than going to war with Germany and its
allies. In the end he made the right choice to fight for this nation and the other nations Germany was
trying to tear apart. "Germany, Austria–Hungary and Italy formed the Triple Alliance in 1882."
(History Place 1.). This was one of many alliances that would lead up to World War I. Some of the
other alliances included Russia and France that was in reaction to the Triple Alliance, Britain and
Japan's Naval alliance, and Russia makes an agreement with Britain. All of these alliances took
place between 1882 and 1910 to see who could make the most powerful alliance. During all this the
United States remained neutral and was not getting involved in the tensions ongoing in Europe.
What originally sparked World War I was when an heir to the Austrian throne "Archduke Franz
Ferdinand was shot and killed by a lone assassin on June 28th 1914." (History Place 1.) After this

The United States And World War II
The United States truly showed that we were coming together as a nation to become one of the most
dominant countries in the world. The United States was brought into World War II when Japan
bombed Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941. This event took Americans by surprise and soon would
lead to bigger problems. The United States did not take the bombing lightly, and we gave Japan
exactly what they deserved. On August 6th and 9th in the year of 1945, the United States dropped
atomic bombs in the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. I believe this was a message to the rest of the
world to show them the kind of power that we had. I believe the bombing of Japan was our way of
showing the rest of the world that the United States was not going to be bullied by other countries,
but instead rise as the most powerful nation in the world. The Soviet Union saw this as a threat.
They thought that they were the most dominant country and felt threatened by the use of our atomic
bombs. This led to the Soviet Union increasing their productivity on their atomic weapons so that
they would feel like they were still the dominant country. When the United States realized that the
Soviet Union had begun to increase productivity, we felt like we needed to do the same. This would
continue for years and would later be known as the Cold War. I believe that since we used the

The World War II On The United States
Many outstanding life lessons have been learned as a result of the two World Wars that were fought
on this Earth. World War 1 began essentially after the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand in
Sarajevo June 28th 1914. There is debate as to whether or not this one was the main catalyst but
there certainly were other factors that could have played a part. There were political changes
happening in major European nations at the time also the industrial revolution was in full swing by
then. World War II on the other hand was largely a result of Nazi Germany coming to power behind
Adolf Hitler. The Nazi's wanted to expand not only German influence but also expand German
territory. Japan was not happy with the United States at the time the United States had been selling
Japanese oil and rubber. Japan was in a war with China and the United States did not approve.
Therefore, the United States placed an embargo on Japan. This resulted in Japan waging a sneak
attack on Pearl Harbor that then drew the United States into World War ll.
Key lessons learned from the wars
One key lesson learned from World War 1 is that we can and should exhaust all diplomatic options

America was paying attention to Asia. On one occasion they inquired whether "it [would] not be

both governments kept each other informed of any changes and shared any concerns. Less than two
months before the attack on Pearl Harbor, Roosevelt sent a message saying that "the Jap situation is
definitely worse and I think they are headed north." Roosevelt is implying to Churchill that Japan
might invade the Soviet Union. After the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor, cooperation was limited
due to very limited resources. Britain could spare little from the war in Europe, and America lacked
the means to stop the Japanese advance due to the attack on Pearl Harbor. Even after they possessed
the resources to take the offensive there was still disagreement which reduced cooperation. Many

if Honduras has made little, if any, progress in reducing child malnutrition. This is not the case. The
data set from 2017 was more centered on rural areas and the other set from 1997 was looking at the

Being the third largest religion in the United States, as of 2016 there are 3.3 million Muslims that
make up the total U.S. population. American Muslims come from all different backgrounds
including converts from other religions and ethnicities other than Arabian. The U.S. Census Bureau
does not ask religious affiliation so there is no official government count of the U.S. Muslim
population. However, The Pew Research Center estimates that the total Muslim population will
double by 2050 (Mohamed).
The presence of American Muslims dates back more than 400 years. Some evidence shows that
there were Muslims on Colombus' ships. The arrival of Muslims was first documented in the 17th
century when the slaves arrived from Africa. Dating pre–arrival to America, it is said that some

The name "Freedom Tower" was originally used to symbolize America as a nation to rise above the

up with its specific chosen name of the building. However, the owners decided to change the

A New World Order For The United States
A New World Order
The 20th century brought with it a plethora of technological advancements that acted as a catalyst
for an important and lasting shift in the United State's perception of its role in the world.
Technological advancement in travel and communication changed the American people's views of
the world, therefore changing the direction of American foreign policy. This shift in foreign policy
would eventually lead the United States into the grips of two horrific wars on the European
continent. However, these wars would provide the necessary environment for the country to
establish itself as the leader of the international system – a title it would desperately need tin order to
attempt to create a new, less conflict–ridden global order. Though World War I set the stage for the
United States to assume a global leadership role, which then set the stage for a second world war, it

smart move, no one asked us to do this. Afterwards, many sides were taken. Whether it was coming
from Syria or from here at home, some were understanding and thankful while some were confused
and even angry. The point is, someone far up the chain of command decided to choose this decision,

The United States And The World War II
The United States, also known as the land of the free and the home of the brave. The United States
has been an icon for freedom and integrity for generations before us and is bound to have written in
various texts around the world. The United States has done its best to do the right thing throughout
the world. It believes itself to be the one to fix the issues that are happening in the world around
them as an act of kindness and justice. In the first World War, when Britain was falling and the
German troops were right on the horizon, American President at the time, chose to involve us in a
war that had originally not been our own. At the time of 1917, President Woodrow Wilson admitted
us into the campaign as a show that we would take a stand against the German Empire. The country
did the same at the year of 1941 in World War II, only after Japan had initiated an attack on
American soil. As seen from these two occurrences, America only then would involve themselves in
foreign affairs when it was necessary to do so and where they were involved themselves. There is
also the idea that America shouldn't be involved in foreign affairs as a whole, due to its moral and
economic effect upon the country. In the idea of the involvement causing economic hassles to the
country, those that think this usually lean towards the liberal standpoint of the country. Those that
are more 'patriotic' tend to ignore the economic issues that come from United States involvement in
foreign affairs

The Dog Days Of The World State

  • 1. The Dog Days Of The World State The Dog Days of the World State Although the technology required to modify humans to such an extent that it becomes a problem is still a few years away, writers have spent decades exploring the possible impacts of eugenics and human modification. Brave New World, a novel written by Aldous Huxley in 1932 during the first wave of support for eugenics, is a classic example of such an exploration, focusing on a futuristic society made up almost entirely of genetically engineered "test tube" babies. Todd J. Schmid of DePauw University states that the novel deals with the question of what humanity is defined as and how genetic engineering can impact human nature, making the claim that "while genetics can alter the physical and even mental ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Instead of understanding what John is doing as he throws their soma out the window and explains that they are now free, the Deltas panic over the loss of soma more than over their apparent imprisonment within their society. More surprising is Bernard Marx's reaction to the chaos (Huxley 143–146). While it is understandable that the Deltas, who are low on the social ladder within the World State and are therefore accustomed to submitting to others, do not grasp the concept of rebellion, Marx, an intelligent Alpha who does not agree with every World State teaching, reluctantly involves himself in the chaos that follows; even so, he only tries to get help, not wanting to cause any problems that would get him into trouble (Huxley 147). Despite the fact that Marx has been unhappy within the World State for the entire novel, the Alpha is still unable to revolt, afraid that the consequences would be intolerable. After the attempted insurrection, once Marx realizes that he will be punished for involving himself, the Alpha immediately tries to take back and explain his actions (Huxley 155–156). Instead of standing up for his belief in the corruption of the World State, he cracks under the pressure and jumps to apologizing and begging for forgiveness, proving that he is unable to rebel. Even the way in which the police placate the situation is a testament to how unable to revolt the World ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

However, when thinking about the future it has become a struggle all on its own yet certain objectives are fairly clear. We as humans are insensitive to our natural surrounding environment. It will be our ignorance to the cry of our home that will become our downfall if we do not take actions to prevent this from happening.

The true answer is no, people might sympathize for a second or two before they are absorbed by the latest popular and idiotic trend. The suffering people in these types of situations become faceless and nameless and therefore are regarded as not real people in our eyes. One only truly begins to care about a concerning problem when it sits in front of our lawn, up and personal. Majority of the people have come to lose the ability to feel empathy for the larger world that cannot be seen right in front of them. I am not saying that every single person is like this because I am not. There are people in society who do take in consideration the wellbeing of others and our planet Earth, however to much of their efforts to raise awareness it is still not enough. It is not enough to make an immense impact to improve or begin to discard our long life engraved dangerous habits. We have become too content to the way we live and a danger to the lifestyle is met with resistance and hostility. The people of our current society over time have created a world where time and money has become a first priority and saving Earth has been placed in last.

The United States : The Greatest Nation Of The World INTRODUCTION The United States of America, the self–proclaimed sole remaining superpower, often touts that it is the greatest nation in the world. Yet, when the data is analyzed, this claim is proven time and time again to be wrong, whether it is math or science, literacy or numbers, household income or workforce. Time and time again, and the numbers continue to slip. Healthcare is no exception. In 2012, the United States ranked thirty–second worldwide in life expectancy (Avendano and Kawachi 2014). Of the thirty–four Organization for Economic Co–operation and Development (OECD) nations in 2010, the United States ranked twenty–sixth in infant mortality (MacDorman et al. 2010). In a 1998 study of thirteen developed nations (Australia, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Japan, Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, United Kingdom, and United States), the United States ranked, on average, twelfth. The rankings for the United States on each of the sixteen health indicators was: thirteenth for low–birth–weight percentages; thirteenth for neonatal mortality and infant mortality overall; eleventh for post neonatal mortality; thirteenth for years of potential life lost (excluding external causes); eleventh for life expectancy at one year for females and twelfth for males; tenth for life expectancy at fifteen years for females and twelfth for males; tenth for life expectancy at forty years for females and ninth for males; seventh for life expectancy at sixty–five years for ...

The United States During World War I The United States during World War I extended their "military, economic, and/or political control" to other weaker countries like, Hawaii, Cuba, Guam, and Puerto Rico. They were following the policy of Imperialism.1 Imperialism allows for nations to be able to trade with one another and businesses preferred it because it helped the United States economy. Nationalism is when the people of a nation are under one government and this played a key factor in starting world war one. There was tension between Germany and France who both wanted rule of Morocco. "Nationalism led European nations to compete for the largest army and navy, or the greatest industrial development."2 Due to nationalism, allies were starting to form between the nations. This was happening all throughout Europe in the 1800s. Ultimately nationalism is what wrecked Europe 's empires. Nations wanted powerful and large armies so militarism was also a result of WWI. Whenever a nation would get a large army, another nation thought they had to step it up and have an even larger nation. Britain was a nation that was equipped with a big army so Germany competed with Britain for a larger army. These armies were growing at a fast rate and this was causing tension between the nations during peace time. During WWII communism was a way of life in Russia.

They were the biggest military clashes in the history. Both wars included military organizations together between diverse gatherings of nations. The Second World War had a much more prominent effect on American culture than the First World War did.

In the wake of investigating about style patterns amid the wars; I have understood that the business has been a continuous circle. Patterns from the past, for example, military coats or studs and spikes or splendid hues and dynamic patters have done a full circle and are back on pattern today. As more American ladies entered the military or took regular citizen employments in industry to bear on the work of men who had gone off to war; ladies needed designs that were less frilly and more suitable for work. They likewise needed apparel styles like the outfits worn by their men. When all is said in done ladies ' apparel got to be uninteresting and viable and limited however most importantly; utilitarian. There was little frill on the first things in light of the fact that beautification obliged extra fabric and materials.

  • 11. The United States Of The World War I Throughout human history, there has always been a nation that has stood head and shoulders above the rest. From the Roman Empire of the ancient world, to the British Empire of the modern era, empires have risen and fallen. The United States of America, it seems, is the modern day equivalent of these empires–being the most powerful and influential nation on Earth–but how did America compare internationally during the Second World War to now? Prior to the Japanese Bombing of Pearl Harbor in 1941, the U.S. had an army that ranked 19th in the world: an army smaller than that of Portugal! (3) Today the U.S. has an army that is by far the greatest in the world. This, however, is only the tip of the iceberg when investigating how the U.S. was seen, and how it competed differently and similarly, in the early days of World War Two and 2016. Strength can be evaluated in many different ways: from economic power, to militaristic prowess, to influence in foreign countries. Today, America seems to be the most powerful nation on Earth when all of these categories are taken into account. The economy of the United States is so strong, that it's GDP accounts for 22.44% of the gross world product. The U.S. economy is worth 17.41 trillion dollars: trillions of dollars more than the world's second most powerful economy: China.

To explore the journey to the top, we must recognize the struggles and obstacles that were overcome. As Americans we can proudly say that we live in a country with globally recognized supremacy. As stated earlier, it was not an easy title to obtain. Looking back throughout history we can see specific examples of how we began our rise to power and what it has taken to preserve our power.

"United States is the only country with the means to invade multiple medium–size countries in other continents and still sustain very few casualties.

The combination of economic stability and military power has led to the United States large impact in the international system. Hegemonic responsibilities are always put on the world's dominant power. The United States has dealt with these responsibilities for many decades and has proven its ability to lead the world in a harmonious way.

In order to be called a world leader the United States has been through many conflicts that would rather have no direct threat to national security. What makes America so powerful are their allies and cooperative structure. However, recent complications have seen America lose a lot of its influence on the global stage and a rise of influence in other actors.

Furthermore, people believed World War I caused the Great Depression, as well as the deaths of thousands of Americans. I believe this opinion changed on December 7, 1941. On this morning, the Japanese military bombed the Pearl Harbor Naval base in Hawaii. I think American citizens view changed because they were attacked on their soil and a total of 2,403 lives were lost; 2,008 soldiers in the Navy, 109 marines, 218 army, and 68 civilians.

It was crucial for the American people to ration, recycle and sacrifice a portion of what they had to help their country win the war. If America refused to come together, the Axis powers would have won the war. The U.S. troops would not have had the resources they needed to stay alive, never mind fight. The mobilization and the persistent work of industry workers to switch to wartime production and manufacture guns, ammunition and other items were critical.

There would be no family, no love, and no emotions. There can be no forms of high art that stir up revelry in people. These things lead only to heartbreak, loss, and depression in the eyes of this world's leaders. With these negative emotions, the utopian society cannot achieve social stability. However, a new drug, Soma, does away with any negative emotions and makes life a "joyful place." The place I am referencing is the World State from Aldous Huxley's novel, Brave New World. In the World State, citizens are stripped of emotion and the truth about their situation in order to achieve the social stability their leaders desire, but is their happiness really worth it if it is fake? Huxley presents the incompatibility of social stability and truth by illustrating the constant struggle between valuing one or the other in order to achieve a world without conflict. The most prominent solution the World State leaders have for social instability is the drug soma. It is a drug that clouds any negative emotions and replaces them with joyful hallucinations that take you on a so–called "holiday" from reality. Mustapha Mond, the Resident World Controller of Western Europe, believes that soma is the reason there are no wars in the World State. "But there aren 't any wars nowadays.

  • 21. Why The World State Is More Desirable Essay Why the World State is More Desirable In the dystopian novel by Aldous Huxley, "Brave New World", introduces two societies, the World State and the Reservation. The World State is the more desirable society in the book as it portrays a better approach of having a stable society, handling stress, having better education, compared to the Reservation. The World State has twelve controllers who regulate the lives of their citizens. Although some might argue that the World State is dystopian, it is, in fact, the Reservation that is the dystopian society. Huxley portrays the World State as a peaceful and prosperous place as it is organized, clean, and everyone is content and has a part in society; whereas the Reservation is unclean, without education or structure, where everyone is running around doing whatever they want, therefore, making the World State the more desirable society. Stability in the World State is created by the government and its rulers who control the World State by having soma, a caste system, conditioning, and biologically engineering humans, thus, having much control over their citizens. With this control, the citizens live in peace and are content and working in society, all feeling important and involved. Although the citizens are controlled by the government's leaders, the people are oblivious to this and still live happily. The only controller Huxley introduces in the book is Mustapha Mond.

In the past, you could only accomplish these things by making a great effort and after years of hard moral training. Now, you swallow two or three half–gram tablets, and there you are. Anybody can be virtuous now. Christianity without tears, that 's what soma is" (Huxley 285). Mustapha Mond wants the people of the World State to witness and experience how easy it is to forget about old emotions that only get in the way of consuming and not producing just by taking soma and nothing more. He wants them to see that by taking soma all their problems will go away, Mond uses the idea that if it worked for a few people then it will work for everyone else and that people don't need to pay attention to their actions or feelings if the can suppress long enough until they die.

Because of this, American diplomats and officials were faced with regional, religious and ethnic conflicts that, as Huntington argues, could not be easily solved. During this time the United States were making major decisions about the layout and status of the new world order. It becomes clear that Huntington would believe future conflicts would arise from cultural differences due to previous cultural clashes and that the most powerful country in the world, the United States, was also unable to create solutions for conflicts fueled by cultural differences. There are also smaller factors that could have had an impact on Huntington's outlook and thesis. In 1992 Patrick Buchanan was campaigning for the Republican presidential nomination when he warned that the country was "undergoing the greatest invasion in its history, a migration of millions of illegal aliens a year from Mexico." An influx of immigrants, who bring their culture, customs and religion with them, could begin to create a clash in Huntington's own country.

When Bernard mentioned about being alone with her, she replied that they would be alone all night but her actual mean was about making love with him. In the World State, being alone is considered odd or queer but having sex is an ordinary activity that even the children do so. Later, while Bernard and Lenina flew back, Bernard "began to fondle her breasts" (Ch.6). It is ironic that Bernard's action was considered offensive and Lenina was supposed to feel uncomfortable but she was not. In fact, she actually felt relieved as she thought he was all right again.

The United States was brought into World War II when Japan bombed Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941. This event took Americans by surprise and soon would lead to bigger problems. The United States did not take the bombing lightly, and we gave Japan exactly what they deserved. On August 6th and 9th in the year of 1945, the United States dropped atomic bombs in the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

The Soviet Union saw this as a threat. They thought that they were the most dominant country and felt threatened by the use of our atomic bombs.

World War 1 began essentially after the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand in Sarajevo June 28th 1914. There is debate as to whether or not this one was the main catalyst but there certainly were other factors that could have played a part. There were political changes happening in major European nations at the time also the industrial revolution was in full swing by then. World War II on the other hand was largely a result of Nazi Germany coming to power behind Adolf Hitler. The Nazi's wanted to expand not only German influence but also expand German territory. Japan was not happy with the United States at the time the United States had been selling Japanese oil and rubber. Japan was in a war with China and the United States did not approve. Therefore, the United States placed an embargo on Japan. This resulted in Japan waging a sneak attack on Pearl Harbor that then drew the United States into World War ll.

Some of the consequences might be more national debt, other enemies could rise underneath us, or there will be a lot more deaths than previous wars.

  • 59. The United States And The World War II While cooperation between Britain and the United States in the European theater was less than it could have been the same could be said about the Pacific theater. Before the United States became directly involved in World War II, the British government tried unsuccessfully to convince them to take a stronger stance against Japanese aggression against China or at least make it clear that America was paying attention to Asia. On one occasion they inquired whether "it [would] not be possible for [Roosevelt] to send an American squadron, the bigger the better, to pay a friendly visit to Singapore?" This request was refused no doubt because it was seen as too provocative. However, both governments kept each other informed of any changes and shared any concerns. Less than two months before the attack on Pearl Harbor, Roosevelt sent a message saying that "the Jap situation is definitely worse and I think they are headed north." Roosevelt is implying to Churchill that Japan might invade the Soviet Union. After the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor, cooperation was limited due to very limited resources. Britain could spare little from the war in Europe, and America lacked the means to stop the Japanese advance due to the attack on Pearl Harbor. Even after they possessed the resources to take the offensive there was still disagreement which reduced cooperation. Many Americans felt that the British were more concerned with preserving their empire than winning the war. All allied troops ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

A value that is less than two standard deviations of the WHO from the median weight for height for any age of a reference population would indicate wasting. When comparing the two sets of data with a difference of twenty years between them, it appears as if Honduras has made little, if any, progress in reducing child malnutrition. This is not the case. The data set from 2017 was more centered on rural areas and the other set from 1997 was looking at the entire country. Understanding the differences between the two sets of data indicate that the rural and impoverished population of Honduras are particularly vulnerable to malnutrition, particularly undernutrition and deficiency diseases. This can also be seen in Honduras's nutrition profile by the USAID, where it reports that only 8% of children in the highest wealth quintile were stunted, while 42% of the children in the lowest wealth quintile were stunted. Similarly, 11% of children whose mothers have secondary education are stunted, while the rate quadruples to 48% of children whose mothers had no formal education (2014).

  • 63. The World Of The United States Essay Being the third largest religion in the United States, as of 2016 there are 3.3 million Muslims that make up the total U.S. population. American Muslims come from all different backgrounds including converts from other religions and ethnicities other than Arabian. The U.S. Census Bureau does not ask religious affiliation so there is no official government count of the U.S. Muslim population. However, The Pew Research Center estimates that the total Muslim population will double by 2050 (Mohamed). The presence of American Muslims dates back more than 400 years. Some evidence shows that there were Muslims on Colombus' ships. The arrival of Muslims was first documented in the 17th century when the slaves arrived from Africa. Dating pre–arrival to America, it is said that some Africans were converted to Islam by Arab invaders during the conquering of North Africa. Between the beginning of the 18th century and the end of the 19th century, an estimated half a million Africans arrived in the U.S. Having an estimated fifteen to thirty percent of slaves arriving as Muslims, Islam was suppressed strongly on plantations. Fast–forward to the 20th century, practicing Muslims begin to immigrate in thousands in the early part of the century. When World War I came about, the immigration pattern was slowed and became disproportionately male.

The World Trade Center Of The United States On September 11th, 2001, terrorism reached American soil; attacks were specifically made on Lower Manhattan, causing the destruction of every World Trade Center associated building. The attack to this day has still instilled fear of terrorism in our society, and is an event New Yorkers will never forget. Dating back to July 4th, 1776, the Declaration of Independence was signed in the United States, declaring the thirteen colonies free from Great Britain. It is no coincidence that the new 1 WTC, previously known as the Freedom Tower, reaches its maximum height of 1,776 feet. The name "Freedom Tower" was originally used to symbolize America as a nation to rise above the attacks on the original towers. Architectures strategically planned out its symbolic height to match up with its specific chosen name of the building. However, the owners decided to change the building name back to One World Trade Center due to the fact that the building was going to be used as an office building and not for marketing. Nonetheless, many people still refer to 1 WTC as the Freedom Tower. Fast forward ten years later from the attack, on September 11th, 2011, the 9/11 Memorial officially opened for public use. The 9/11 Memorial has not only been one of New York's biggest tourist destinations that attracts crowds of thousands on a daily basis, but it has also acted as an area that brings back many memories and emotions for those with any association of that day.

  • 71. A New World Order For The United States A New World Order The 20th century brought with it a plethora of technological advancements that acted as a catalyst for an important and lasting shift in the United State's perception of its role in the world. Technological advancement in travel and communication changed the American people's views of the world, therefore changing the direction of American foreign policy. This shift in foreign policy would eventually lead the United States into the grips of two horrific wars on the European continent. However, these wars would provide the necessary environment for the country to establish itself as the leader of the international system – a title it would desperately need tin order to attempt to create a new, less conflict–ridden global order. Though World War I set the stage for the United States to assume a global leadership role, which then set the stage for a second world war, it is not to say that the United States ever wanted anything to do with a European war in the first place. I argue that the U. S. failures to prevent World War I and World War II was due to a series of actions and events beginning at the turn of the century (a domino effect) that made it impossible to avoid joining either war once they began.

Years ago it might've taken months to get somewhere seeing as you were only powered by the wind to move your boat. Although, now everything is much closer, and this is not always literally, but through technology everything is closer.

It believes itself to be the one to fix the issues that are happening in the world around them as an act of kindness and justice.

At the time of 1917, President Woodrow Wilson admitted us into the campaign as a show that we would take a stand against the German Empire. The country did the same at the year of 1941 in World War II, only after Japan had initiated an attack on American soil. As seen from these two occurrences, America only then would involve themselves in foreign affairs when it was necessary to do so and where they were involved themselves. There is also the idea that America shouldn't be involved in foreign affairs as a whole, due to its moral and economic effect upon the country.
