Karl Max and Communism

Karl Max Thought the best thing to do was to treat everyone equally so that everyone earned the same ammount of money. At this time period people where divided into classes and alwayz remained in that class . If you were poor you are poor , If your rich your rich. And thats how you lived. Karl Max thought different no matter what job you had you got paid the same.

This made people wprk for a good time but then they started to slack because they didnt need to do as much work. No matter what they are all getting paid the same. So this made people made and was the down fall of Communism. People werent morking to there full standards and everything was going wrong with the machines.

Karl Max illusion to failed . Even though he died before it started going wrong people saw the the down fall and demanded a change because some work more than others and still get paid the same amount. My opinion about it is that it wouldnt work because the people that work harder and have a good education to get a better job should get paid more then the drop outs and the people who dont do nothing at all but thats just my opinion.

Opium Wars

The Opium war started with the britain and china trading. Great Britain trading opium for tea with China. The chinese agreed to this and started the trades with Britain. Opium was a drug in india and as soon as the goverment of china saw its affect on the people they tried to stop the trades for there people. Britain did not stop on the other hand

China then said anyone who sold opium would b sentenced to death in 1838. The faced Britain in a war to stop them from delievring the drug but lost in an easy win for the British because there weapons were to advanced for the chinese. The then legalized the drug and signed the peace treaty with Britain. Great britain the controlled 5 ports instead of won and took control of Hong Kong.

Mountains of the moon

In the movie Mountains of the moon we see to explorers,exploring the land of Africa in search of the Nile River.There names are Richand Burton and John Spehe. They in countered a lot of problem's in this trip. They had a climate that they were not used to receiving. And they were on unmarked territory therefore not knowing if they are going on the right path or heading backwards.

Another problem they in countered was that there were bugs everywhere at night and they had to sleep wit nets on and if you didn't cover that net bugs well come in and poison you or kill you. The bugs were also attracted to the fire because of the light it gave off so every night they would have to put it out or else bugs would be around the area. Other than the bugs they had to in counter different tribes that owned different parts of Africa. Some tribes demanded gifts so they had to give them some goods or supplies as the gifts. Giving out there supplies wasn't the best thing to gave out because they were getting robbed from former members or other tribes. So as you can see they had it ruff.

The film gave me an idea on how hard it is to navigate threw unknown places without that much supplies and the constant look out for tribes or robbers. Even with there minor set backs they were able to locate the nile river and come bake to england with there data and information about africa.
