In 1793 the franchise was extended to the Catholic community, but the significance of the Convention did not stop there, as a Convention Act was also passed to prevent the meeting of Back Lane Parliaments.

Spheres Of Influence Sphere Of Influence
1,034 wordsMy first inclination would be to answer the first question with a clear "YES." But come to think of it, the causes of war really have not changed at all, or at least very little. Rather than changes, there has been a shift in the causes. The cause of war which has dominated the last 50 years was the cause of ideology.

Abstract Formal Idea Power Is Exercised State
612 wordsThe state is like God, some believe that its the all mighty powerful being that controls all and others just think its a big overblown idea.
