Well, for one thing Saladin allowed for religious freedom among those living in Jerusalem at the time.  He didn't murder Christians or force them to leave; he allowed them to remain and practice their faith.

He was killed in battle by Xerxe's army at Thermopylae.\n\nHe held off vastly superior forces for 3 days before being overrun.

Adwa had further consequences than just pointing and pasting from another website without understanding.\n\nFirst, this battle, because native scouts hired by the Italians actually turned out to be double agents, would remain a sore subject between Italy and Ethiopia. In fact, Mussolini would use the revenge for Adwa as one of the justifications for the 1935 war.\n\nSecond, this battle would fundamentally affect the balance of power in Europe leading up to World War I. Ethiopia, which was evangelized by Russian Orthodox monks (Ethiopia is still a largely Orthodox nation, at least in the cities) and Russia sent large amounts of weapons and support for the defense against Italy. Contrarily, Italy's supposed allies Germany and Austria-Hungary did nothing to help her (even a strongly worded cable to Saint Petersburg would have been something!). As a result, Italy felt she was not morally obligated to do anything the defend her allies when the Archduke was murdered in Sarajevo in 1914, and Italy would eventually declare war on Austria in 1915.

I don't really think it has anything to do. I think it remained there as nobody remembered why it was there at first place and everyone is afraid of getting it out !

The disputed presidential election was thrown to Rutherford B. Hayes in return for his agreement to end Reconstruction in the south.  As far as the effects on politics today, I'm not sure.  It certainly opened the way for southern Democrats of the era to re-establish white supremacy in the south, with the help of the KKK.  The black struggle really began AFTER the Civil War, and continued for another 100 years.

The proclamation closed off the frontier to colonial expansion. It was meant to calm the fears of the Indians, who felt that the colonists would drive them from their lands as they expanded westward. However the colonists could not help but feel a strong resentment when what they viewed to be their prize was snatched away from them. The proclamation stated that "all lands west of the heads of all rivers which flowed into the Atlantic Ocean from the west or northwest were off-limits to the colonists." I think the colonists would have been really upset to hear that. The url below is where i found my answer... after alot of reading

No 1 didnt affect the whole world, it just gave us something to laugh about.\nNo 2 has devastated the whole world.

acity_I,\n\nThe Jebusites do not exist as a people any more. They were partially conquered during the days of Joshua who led the children of Israel into the “promised land.” Many years later, King David conquered the remainder who lived in Zion which was renamed the City of David. David treated at least some of the Jebusites kindly and actually bought the site where the temple was built from a Jebusite named Araunah. David’s son, King Solomon, used the Jebusites who weren’t assimilated into the Jewish nation as slave labor to construct buildings in Jerusalem – including the temple. In the time of Ezra’s return from Babylon – around 450 BC – the Jews living in Jerusalem had intermarried with several groups including the Jebusites. This is the last historical mention of the Jebusites.\n\nI hope this helps.\n\nGod bless.

In my opinion, war contracts and oil.\n\nSaddam was invaded because of Location, Location, Location.

ZERO.  And allow me to say that I am really surprised at the ignorance about this.  If anyone would care to look it up, this was yet, another horrible thing that was forced upon the true Native Americans (Cherokee) by Andrew Jackson with the so called Indian Removal Act.  4,000 men, women and children died.  This was a forced death march from the East all the way into Oklahoma.  Some managed to escape but most did not.  This story breaks my heart.

It said that the decision to guard the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier was a sign of respect to the fallen ones.  Below I included a piece I received from a fellow veteran regarding the Tomb of the Unknown. \n\nIn 2003 as Hurricane Isabelle was approaching Washington , DC , our US Senate/House took 2 days off with anticipation of the storm. On the ABC evening news, it was reported that because of the dangers from the hurricane, the military members assigned the duty of guarding the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier were given permission to suspend the assignment. They respectfully declined the offer, "No way, Sir!" Soaked to the skin,marching in the pelting rain of a tropical storm, they said that guarding the Tomb was not just an assignment, it was the highest honor that can be afforded to a serviceperson. The tomb has been patrolled continuously, 24/7, since 1930.\n\nHope this info helped..

WTF is your question?  Angola was never under South African domination....  There was a 3 way civil war seemingly forever, and there were some SA operatives involved (I know this from  personal knowledge - there were also some US operatives involved too).

Wow, The wikipedia is wrong?  Jamacia was settled by freed slaves, the Turks were the first people to use smoke as a means of altering reality. Perhaps we should re-examine why paper was first made?

The Dutch gave the world the word apartheid. The Spaniards, after a certain time, they just killed off all the natives they could find.

Helping you out with your homework huh?  Well I will not make it 4 or five sentences long but will give you something to think about.  \nThe impact it has on the American history is it started the rebellion against taxation and the mother country.  The second thing is that Americans decided to govern themselves and form a new government.  It also lead to no one ruler will govern America, judicial system, legislative branch and the executive branch.  It lead to a revolt and to the rights of our civil liberties.

For the loss of land, a little, but at the same time according to the ancient rite of war that the Nations lived by as well the countries that our forefathers came from held to states that the land goes to the victors.\n\nThere are things that our forefathers  did to the Nations that I'm ashamed of, but at the same time it was on par with some of the things that some Nations used against the settlers or the military.\n\nThe worst thing that the US did was to make the Nations ward of the State.  Taking the pride away from the people, making them dependent on the Federal Government for their survival.  The result to day for a good portion is despicable, but some of the Nations by starting casinos have improved things for themselves.\n\nReparations while they would be owed would only exasperate the situation
