The campaign to allow legal retail alcohol sales in Benton County, Arkansas is becoming expensive, with two of Sam Walton's grandsons, Tom and Stueart Walton, donating $80,000 each in March on top of their previous $30,000 donations each. The group collecting signatures to put the issue on the ballot has paid $219,513.11 so far to a professional signature collection firm. Supporters argue that approving retail alcohol sales would keep tax dollars in the county rather than having residents drive elsewhere to buy alcohol, while one critic argues that Sam Walton would not have supported legalizing alcohol sales given his focus on family.

Robert de La Salle led an expedition from France to establish settlements along the Mississippi River in the late 1600s. After missing the Gulf of Mexico, his men mutinied and murdered La Salle. His lieutenant Henri de Tonti established Arkansas Post in 1686 as a fort and trading post for travelers along the river. France was unable to support further exploration and settlement due to costs from the revolutionary war, allowing Spanish and English influence over the region to grow.
Hernando de Soto led an early expedition through Arkansas in the 1540s, becoming one of the first Europeans to explore the region, but his journey was considered a failure as it established no permanent settlements. Over 130 years later, French explorers Jacques Marquette and Louis Joliet traveled down the Mississippi River, reaching Arkansas in 1673. Inspired by their journey, Robert de La Salle later sought to secure the Mississippi Valley for France and claim ownership over Arkansas and Louisiana by gaining an alliance with the local Quapaw people in exchange for protection against enemies.
Hitler rose to power in Germany after World War 1. He was a veteran of WWI and the leader of the Nazi party, originally known as the German Workers party. While in jail, Hitler wrote Mein Kampf which outlined his political ideology centered around antisemitism, hatred of communism, and a belief in German cultural and racial supremacy. After WWI, the Treaty of Versailles imposed harsh terms on Germany which increased nationalist sentiment and helped Hitler and the Nazi party gain widespread support among the German population.
The Council of Trent met from 1545 to 1563 to address disputes with Protestants by condemning Protestant doctrines and defining Catholic church doctrine. It declared the Church's interpretation of the Bible as final and heretical to substitute one's own interpretation. It also defined salvation as coming through both faith and works. The Council issued decrees reforming church practices like indulgences and established the Jesuits order led by Ignatius of Loyola to spread Catholic teachings through education and missions to counter the spread of Protestantism.
In the late 19th century, European powers aggressively colonized Africa in a short period known as the "Scramble for Africa". Motivated by imperialism, nationalism and political/economic rivalries, countries like Britain, France, Germany, Italy, Belgium and Portugal occupied vast areas of the continent and divided it among themselves. By 1914, only Ethiopia and Liberia remained independent as European domination of Africa was nearly complete.

The document discusses different types of economies: command economies, market economies, and mixed economies. In a command economy, the central government regulates factors of production and makes decisions about production, distribution, and revenue allocation. Command economies are generally more stable and less affected by financial downturns.

The document provides an extensive knowledge map covering world history, geography, economics, and civics. It outlines key concepts, events, people, and time periods across these domains. Some of the main topics covered include cultural and physical geography; traditional, command, and market economies; forms of government like democracy and dictatorship; major historical periods like the Renaissance and Industrial Revolution; influential figures in science, politics, and philosophy; and global events of the 20th century like World War I, World War II, and the Cold War.
