The Hellenic Parliament is located in the Old Royal Palace in Athens and serves as the supreme democratic institution representing Greek citizens through 300 elected members of parliament. The palace was originally built in the 1800s to serve as the residence for King Otto and Queen Amalia, and housed subsequent monarchs until Greece became a republic in 1922. In 1935, the first parliamentary session was held in the newly constructed debating chamber, establishing the building as the permanent home of the Hellenic Parliament.

Henry II was the son of Geoffrey of Anjou and Matilda, and spent his childhood at war trying to regain his family's inheritance. As an adult, Henry had eight children with his wife Eleanor but tensions emerged over the inheritance. His heir rebelled in 1173, and Henry struggled to satisfy all his sons' desires for land. Politically, Henry was a ruthless ruler who restored royal control over England and expanded his territories, coming into conflict with Thomas Becket and King Louis VII of France. By 1172, Henry controlled a vast empire including England, Wales, Ireland, and western France.
Angevin Empire
Henry II maintained control over his vast and disparate territories through an energetic and centralized government. He ruled England, Normandy, Aquitaine, and other lands directly using officials he personally selected and monitored. In more peripheral regions, he allowed greater autonomy to barons as long as they remained loyal. Henry was constantly traveling between his territories to collect dues, dispense justice, and ensure stable administration in his absence through trusted deputies like justiciars and seneschals. His charismatic personality and attention to detail helped him effectively govern this sprawling empire.

The expansion of the dominion of Henry II with the foreseen breakup of that dominion through family feud. Acquisition of Ireland and homage of Wales and Scotland.
Henry II and England
Henry II took decisive action to restore stability to England after the disorder and anarchy of Stephen's reign. He broke the power of overmighty barons by demolishing illegal castles and defeating barons in battle, forcing them to surrender castles. Henry also reasserted royal authority by reducing the power of earls, developing towns loyal to the crown, and appointing able men to offices rather than just those of noble birth. Through military success, financial reforms, and weakening the barons, Henry was able to strengthen royal authority and bring peace back to England.

Henry ii
Henry II was born in 1133 in France and became King of England in 1153. He established a powerful centralized administration and judicial system, such as the Assize of Clarendon which standardized criminal procedures. However, tensions arose between Henry and Archbishop Thomas Becket, which led to Becket's assassination in 1170 by four knights. Henry faced revolts from his sons and barons later in his reign, though he was able to maintain control of Normandy.
Henry II
Henry II was born in 1133 in Le Mans, France to Geoffrey Plantagenet and Matilda. He was well educated as a child. In 1152, he married Eleanor of Aquitaine, greatly increasing his wealth and lands. Henry became embroiled in a civil war with his mother Matilda against King Stephen. He was crowned king of England in 1154 after Stephen's death. As king, Henry established common law and improved the financial system. However, conflicts arose with Thomas Becket and his sons, including a rebellion against Henry led by his wife and sons. Henry died in 1189 after losing power to his son Richard.
Angevin empire introduction
Henry II controlled vast lands across Western Europe by 1154 through conquest and marriage, including England, Normandy, Anjou, Maine, Touraine, and Aquitaine, making him more powerful than the French king Louis VII. However, in the French lands Henry held, he was still a vassal of the French king. While Henry's territories were contiguous and much larger than those of Louis, in France he was technically subordinate to Louis as his overlord.

1. How timber house traditions stem from a major earthquake in 1509, as timber is better able to withstand earthquakes than stone or brick.
2. The rise of wooden constructions from the 1600s onward and the establishment of fire departments in the 19th century to address fires, which wooden houses are vulnerable to.
3. How aspects of wooden house design, like central living spaces and housing animals on the ground floor, may have originated from nomadic Turkish tribes' tents.
4. How urbanization and policies in the 20th century led to a decline in wooden construction and preservation

The document summarizes European colonial intrusion into Somalia in the late 19th century and the resulting Somali resistance. It describes how various European powers - Britain, France, Italy, and Abyssinia - established control over different parts of Somalia through treaties and military campaigns. This led to the partitioning of Somali territories among these powers. The document also details the initial Italian colonization of southern Somalia and the resistance put up by the Biyamaal and Wa'daan clans against the Italian attempts to control their lands, which included blockading the port city of Marka for many years. The resistance remained disorganized for over a decade before taking a more organized form under new leaders in 1906-1907.The Congress of Vienna
The Congress of Vienna from 1814 to 1815 aimed to redraw the political map of Europe after the Napoleonic Wars. Key goals included reducing France's power by returning its borders to 1792 lines, restoring monarchies that Napoleon had replaced, and establishing a new balance of power through territorial concessions that strengthened Austria, Prussia, Russia and other states. The Congress made numerous decisions that reshaped borders and transferred lands, seeking to prevent future conflicts through this reorganization of Europe.
The Ottoman Empire
The Ottoman Empire originated as a nomadic Turkish group from Central Asia and rose to become a powerful world empire. Through military conquest, the Ottomans brought large territories under Islamic rule by the 15th century, including the capturing of Constantinople in 1453, marking the fall of the Byzantine Empire and expansion of Ottoman power. Under Suleiman the Magnificent's rule from 1520-1566, the empire established a strict social class system and saw advancements in areas like science, architecture, and literature.
History of the united kingdom
The Union of the Crowns in 1603 united Scotland and England under one monarch with the accession of James VI of Scotland to the English throne. Relations deteriorated between King Charles I and Parliament in the 1640s due to disagreements over taxation and the divine right of kings, leading to the English Civil War. Oliver Cromwell emerged victorious for Parliament in 1648 and Charles I was executed. This led to a republic called the Commonwealth of England until 1660 when the monarchy was restored under Charles II. The Glorious Revolution of 1688 established constitutional monarchy and Parliament's sovereignty over the monarch with the accession of William and Mary.

INTRODUCTION
ENGLAND is a small island country situated off the northern coast of France. Throughout its
history, the country has been referred to as England, Great Britain, and the United Kingdom.
The official name changes occurred as a result of England’s political union with its
territorial neighbors. For example, in 1707, England and Wales united with Scotland. This
geographic alliance became known as Great Britain. When the southern counties of Ireland
formed the Irish Free State in 1922, the official name of Britain changed again—this time
to the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.
In this chapter, we are concerned only with the geographical area known as England
and Wales. The reasons for this are quite simple. Scotland is not a common law country;
its criminal justice system consists of a mixture of common and civil law. This was a result
of its political association with France in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. Scotland
retained some of the legal characteristics that are indigenous to civil law countries such as
France. Northern Ireland is not included in this study as a result of the problems that exist
between the Protestant and Catholic factions of that country. The serious nature of these
problems, although they are beginning to be resolved, has caused the criminal justice system
to be altered somewhat from the common law system that exists in England and Wales.
England and Wales encompass an area of 58,350 square miles, which is a little larger
than the state of Michigan (see Figure 1.1). Many of the roughly 57 million inhabitants
live in the highly industrialized cities of the country. Although England no longer retains
the industrial supremacy it once possessed, the country continues to be a world leader in
the manufacture of heavy machinery. Agriculture, fishing, and oil are some of England’s
other important industries. The legacy that the people of England have given the rest of
the world is significant and indeed remarkable. The English have made major contributions
in science, philosophy, literature, and the arts, but their most important and striking
contribution to the historical evolution of civilization has been the creation of the common
law and the development of parliamentary democracy.
GOVERNMENT
The foundation for England’s political and legal institutions was established between the
eleventh and fourteenth centuries. It was at this time that the monarchy negotiated several
compromises with the nobility and, in the process, asserted its central authority. Following
the English Civil War, which occurred during the first half of the seventeenth century,
the modern basis for the country’s political institut ...

- Italy invaded Ethiopia in 1935, and Haile Selassie appealed to the League of Nations for help, to no avail. He went into exile as Italy occupied Ethiopia.
- After World War 2, Haile Selassie was restored to power and continued modernization efforts like abolishing slavery and establishing Ethiopia's first university. However, his authoritarian rule faced growing opposition.

Revolution in England
The document summarizes the revolution in England that established parliamentary rule over absolute monarchy. It began when King John faced a rebellion from nobles in 1215, forcing him to agree to the Magna Carta which established basic legal rights and limited royal power. This led to the development of institutions like common law, due process, habeas corpus and an increasingly powerful Parliament that sought to restrict monarchs' authority. This conflict continued until the Glorious Revolution of 1688 established England as a constitutional monarchy with Parliament drafting the Bill of Rights to define the powers of monarch and parliament. A cabinet system developed where government ministers answered to Parliament rather than the monarch, establishing the prime minister as head of the ruling party.
Constitutions
The fourth session covers the years 1790-1792 and follows the efforts to create a new constitution for France.
Constitution
The document discusses a Comenius school partnership project between students in Italy, UK, Germany and Spain about European citizenship. The students will compare their countries' constitutions, national anthems, and flags. It then focuses on the 150th anniversary of Italian unification, providing a short history of Italy's constitution including details on its signing in 1947 and core principles like sovereignty belonging to the people. The constitution is described as the fundamental compact binding citizens to society and expressing principles that are a reference for daily life.

How to Manage Reception Report in Odoo 17
A business may deal with both sales and purchases occasionally. They buy things from vendors and then sell them to their customers. Such dealings can be confusing at times. Because multiple clients may inquire about the same product at the same time, after purchasing those products, customers must be assigned to them. Odoo has a tool called Reception Report that can be used to complete this assignment. By enabling this, a reception report comes automatically after confirming a receipt, from which we can assign products to orders.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

The hellenic parliament
- 2. THE HISTORY AND ROLE OF THE HELLENIC PARLIAMENT
- 3. The Hellenic Parliament is the parliament of Greece, located in the Old Royal Palace, overlooking Syntagma (Constitution) Square in Athens. The Parliament is the supreme democratic institution that represents the citizens through an elected body of Members of Parliament (MPs). It has 300 members, elected for a four-year term.
- 4. Initially, the building served as the palace of Kings Otto and George I. It became the Parliament a hundred years later after it was constructed. After the selection of prince Otto, it was decided to build the palace on Boubounistra Hill since it was an easily-defendable and cool spot. A lot of people worked in order to build the palace. Among them were both Greek German and Italian architects, members of the army and artisans. The king and queen of Greece, Otto and Amalia, took up residence there in 1843.
- 5. Following the expulsion of Otto in 1862, the palace housed the new king, George I (1863). As the years passed two damaging fires occurred (1884,1909) which destroyed a lot of parts of the original palace. In 1922 the palace was permanently abandoned by the royal family while Greece was undergoing a regime change, from monarchy to republic. In 1928 it was decided to erect the Monument of the Unknown Soldier standing outside the Parliament. On July 1st 1935 the first parliamentary session took place in the brand new Debating Chamber in the building.
- 7. ~The Parliament decides~ The Plenum decides by an absolute majority of the MPs who are present (at least ¼ ). ~The Parliament legislates~ Ministers introduce Bills (draft laws), amendments and additions while MPs introduce Law Proposals, amendments and additions under the conditions laid down by the Constitution. Parliament: debates and votes on Bills and Law Proposals and exercises other competences such as: Election of the President of the Hellenic Republic Constitutional revision Voting of standing orders Voting of the state budget The role of the Parliament is to resolute on the proclamation of a referendum and waive the immunity.
