Final prompt #3

Mao was similar to Stalin because before they came to power they were both soldiers. They made a name for themselves as soldiers and they worked their way up to being the leaders of their countries. Mao had young people go out and destroy statues and artifacts of those of different beliefs. He punished those who did not follow the communist way, he would send them to labor camps, re-education programs, and self-criticism programs. Stalin believed in the communist way too. They both were in total power and no one could do anything about it because they were dictators.

Mao and Hitler were both different in the fact that Hitler was not a soldier and Mao as you know from the paragraph above was a soldier before coming to power. They were both very powerful. They both had their own way of punishing people. Hitler would kill more people than he would torture. Mao would torture people or he would put them in labor camps or he would also humiliate them for torture. They both became dictators.

Hunger

Hunger is a big issue all around the world today, and it is getting worse in many places. Many adults and children die a day from hunger, hundreds and even thousands. Millions are suffering from this, and why you might ask, well because of the lack of money in their countries. What is hunger? Hunger is a feeling that you experience when the glycogen level of the liver falls below a certain point, that is usually followed by an urge to eat.
Hunger has always been a huge problem throughout the history of man kind. Why not because the ones suffering don't want to eat, but simply because they didn't enough money to buy food. In some places the problem is not the people's fault but the countries because it is poor, or has a bad leader that doesn't care. In Guatemala almost half of the children under five years of age are chronically suffering from malnutrition. Sixteen percent suffer from acute malnutrition. I guarantee that these suffering people don't choose to be this way, if they could do something about it then they would but there is just nothing to be done.
Food wastage is a big thing throughout some parts of the world. In the United Kingdom, " a whopping 30 to 40% of food is never eaten." About 38 billion U.S. dollars worth of food is thrown away per year. In the U.S., 40-50% of all food ready for harvest never gets eaten. This causes not only financial problems but also environmental problems such as wasteful use of chemicals, waste of fuel for transportation which is also a big financial loss, and a lot of rotting food. This is all part of poverty, which is the wasting of food and money.
After reading Hunger it has made me realize how big of a deal hunger really is. So many people are suffering from this issue and so many people are doing nothing to help. Thankfully there are few that are pitching in but there needs to be more, and the country leaders need to do something for their starving people and help them out, it is somewhat their responsibility too. Hunger needs to be stopped, because it is killing off way to many people and it just isn't right for people to go hungry and die like that. I couldn't imagine starving to death and i don't know why more people aren't doing something about the situation. It needs to stop it has gone on for a very long time and i think its time for it to come to an end.

The Colombian Exchange transformed the world in a more radical(far out) way than any other development in world history. One significant effect of this process(series of changes) was the establishment of the Triangle Trade. While many factors were a part of the Triangle Trade, the rapid growth in both supply and demand for new commodities was the largest motivating element. This time period may be best associated(partnered with) with economic developments, but it is impossible to analyze(closely look at) this period without considering the intense social impact that the Triangle Trade had on those involved. In truth, a full understanding can only be gained by appreciating(being thankful for) how economic and social factors(a piece to accomplishing something) impact each other in history.

The Colombian Exchange, the exchange of European products with American products, transformed the world in such an extreme way that it was a bigger change then any other development in world history. One significant effect of this series of changes was the establishment of the Triangle Trade. While many factors were a part of the Triangle Trade, the rapid growth in both the amount and the want for the new goods was the largest motivating element. This time period may be best looked at with the economic developments, but it is impossible to closely look at this period without considering the intense social impact that the Triangle Trade had on those involved. In truth, a full understanding can only be gained by being thankful for how economic and social pieces that impact each other in history.

This is a picture of a textile factory during the industrial revolution. As you can see the safety regulations are minimal if theres any at all. There are open pulleys and multiple places where the workers fingers could get caught in and possibly ripped off. There are small children working and many women and men.

Here is another picture of children working in a textile factory during the industrial revolution. You can see all of the open things of thread. One kid has no shoes on so if something were to fall, his toes could be smashed or even cut off. This is not a safe working environment. They also have to stand up the whole time which is not comfortable to be doing all day.

Here is a picture of the Guillotine, a killing device they used during the French Revolution. It was rarely cleaned. It worked by pulling a string, when they pulled the string the blade would come down and cut your head off and it would fall into a basket, which was also full of heads which was a great thing to look at right before you die. The reason they made the guillotine was to kill of course but it killed them quickly and painlessly, so we think.

These three pictures all show the living in either the French Revolution times or the Industrial Revolution times was not all that fun. You either got your head chopped off into a bucket or you had to work in a textile factory. The big picture is that we live in a much better time then they did back then. There is no more beheading and no more unsafe work environments, we now have laws about this kind of stuff.
