This presentation covers the 1860 election, the secession winter, and the Firing on Fort Sumter to illuminate the history leading up to the beginning of the Civil War. It is the fifth in a series of textbook/lecture substitutes designed for students in a college seminar on the Civil War and Reconstruction.

Introduction
As Module 6 showed, the Mexican-American War exposed a deep national divide over the role and future of slavery in the United States. The controversies that had been engendered by the war—Texas’ annexation, the Wilmot Proviso, and the Treaty of Guadeloupe Hidalgo—only quickened during the 1850s. The cascade of events in the 1850s (by which we also include the election of 1860) led to the secession of the Lower Southern states and the start of the Civil War itself. During the first few months of war, both sides struggled to find strategies to force the other side to terms. This chapter addresses the events of the 1850s, the election of 1860 and its aftermath, secession, and the first few months of the Civil War.
1. The Compromise of 1850
While some may have felt that victory over Mexico cemented an American national identity, the impact of sectionalism was the decade’s constant refrain. Without committing overly to a sense of inevitability about the Civil War, it is easy to see how the Mexican-American War set in motion a series of events that resulted in war just barely a decade later.
As we discussed in the last module, the Wilmot Proviso, which failed to pass during several attempts, had stirred Southern paranoia that the North could not be trusted to maintain the free-slave state equilibrium. Likewise, Northerners may have celebrated American victory in the recent war, but criticized the strength of the Southern “slave power” in politics. One primary fear was that the “slave power” would open the western territories to slavery, thereby undercutting the “free labor” ideology and shutting out free-state settlers.
The issue of slavery in the new territories might have remained a backburner issue had it not been for the discovery of gold at Sutter’s Mill, California, in 1848. That event opened the way for a mass American migration west. The sheer number of migrants required the northwestern territories be organized and/or be put on the path to statehood. Likewise, Southerners wanted the southwest territories organized so slavery would be legally recognized. Southerners were aware that California would like come into the Union as a free state, so slave interests needed to be protected elsewhere.
The territorial issue, combined with other pressing section-related issues, convinced Congressional leaders to consider some “grand bargain” to resolve them. If compromises had been made in 1789 and 1820, why not in 1850? A package of bills was assembled and finally passed after furious debates over the first part of the year.
The final bills provided for:
· California to be admitted as a free state
· Texas to cede its New Mexico claims to the US and, in exchange, the US would assume much of its pre-admission debt
· The remaining territory from Mexico to be organized without specific mention of slave or free status
· The slave trade (but not slave ownership) to be abolished in the District of Columbia
· A streng.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin

Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.
