Ireland Catholic And Protestant Fears In The 1930s
1,097 words
By the end of the 1930 's the Northern State had
existed for almost two decades, as had its
Southern counterpart. During this time the two
states set themselves up in a way that seemed to
justify the fears that both communities, Catholic
and Protestant had when the possibility of Home
Rule was first talked about in the 1880 's. The
Northern state was one where the Protestant
majority was in power and treated the Catholic
minority as a threat, thus realising the fears of
that community. The South...

Ireland Catholic And Protestant Fears In The 1930s

... requirement that a Protestant majority be
created in Northern Ireland was a major
determinant in drawing the boundary for the
Partition of Ireland. The remaining three counties
of Ulster were not included in Northern Ireland
due to the fact that the higher percentage of
Catholics in these counties posed a threat to
Protestant control of the country. Only those
counties of Ulster province that had a Protestant
population of at least 30 per cent were included
in the Unionist enclave of Norther...

The White Sea and the Barents Sea have been of
importance to the Russian merchant fleet ever
since the 15 th century. Because of this, Russias
Navy has always been an important part of the
Russian Military. The matter of access to ice free
harbors in the north became even more important
after Germany became a significant naval power in
the Baltic Sea. Events during World War I
increased the importance of the Kola Peninsula to
Russia very much. The Kola Peninsula and the White
sea played an vital...

... ical's. Many abolitionists remained faithful
to their belief in God, though they were no longer
accepted by the church. The abolitionists believed
themselves to be the "righteous remnant" of the
evangelical tradition; abolitionism became a
surrogate religion. (Mathews, 1980, p. 209). Two
radical abolitionists, William Lloyd Garrison and
Theodore Dwight Weld, considered slavery a sin.
Garrison and Weld felt that slavery was a
rebellion against God, and all men were
accountable to God. Both me...

Td Tr Tr Td Difficult To Understand
2,295 words
Introduction When I was in Ireland in 1997, I
learned one important thing within few days: Do
not ask, talk or enter into discussions about the
contentious issues of politics and religion, and
so I did not. However, it is impossible to touch
Irish ground without also touching the fringes of
what is popular referred to as the Irish Question.
I noticed armed soldiers guarding the polling
place at a by-election in county Armagh, a lorry
driver vehemently expressed his disgust at the
Irish tricolor ...

Source: The Irish Times/MRBI,
21 May 1998 A majority of the UUP voters endorsed
the Agreement; this poll, though, does not
indicate how many voters the UUP had lost to the
DUP. However, a poll conducted in The Sunday Times
two days after the referendum indicated that 27 %
of the total unionist electorate now backed
Paisley, an enormous support for an extremist
party. Ostensibly, the i...

The Northern Lights Aurora Borealis
1,012 words
You are outside on a clear summers night, when all
of a sudden a flash catches your eye. You whirl
around in bewilderment as the black night sky
flashes and dances with a whirling array of
colors. The northern horizon is draped with an
iridescent green, deep blues, sharp violets,
scarlet reds, and bright oranges and yellows. You
stand awestruck as the colors descend, like a
melting rainbow, across the sky. Then, as quickly
as they appeared, they vanish without a trace. On
clear nights, when the ...

British Prime Minister Republic Of Ireland
1,051 words
The only way to beat the British Monarch is to
refuse its existence and believe that the Irish
Republic is real and alive. Now, if I die, who
will take my place? These powerful words were said
by an Irish martyr, Michael Collins, whos
unyielding determination as a Nationalist and a
Catholic served as inspiration to continue in the
struggle that the province of Northern Ireland is
still engaged in today. But, from where did this
all originate, what steps have been taken towards
peace and why is N...

Ancient Egypt Century Bc

The civilization of ancient Egypt is significant
in several ways. Together with those of
Mesopotamia, India, and China, it was one of the
earliest civilizations, and it is perhaps the best
example of continuous cultural evolution based on
internal stimuli, rather than the complex mix of
internal and external factors found, for example,
in Mesopotamia. Egyptian influence on other
peoples was also significant. Its hieroglyphic
writing system and other cultural elements were
adapted by ancient king...
