    Brazil, officially known as the Federative Republic of Brazil, is a South American country which has recently transitioned from a regional to a global power (U.S. Dept. of State, 2011). This is primarily due to the country’s real gross domestic products which have created surging exports and economic growth. The economic growth of Brazil in recent years has lifted tens of millions of Brazilians from poverty to upper middle class citizens (U.S. Dept. of State, 2011). This has increased domestic consumption (a component of aggregate demand) and therefore the increase in the real gross domestic products as a result of the increases in aggregate supply and demand (Editorial Board, 2011).…

    Alexander I Dbq

    Austria and Prussia did not want to offend Alexander, so they joined their kingdoms to Alexander's creation, agreeing with Alexander that the "sublime truths" of Christianity ought to guide relations between nations and guide the domestic affairs of nations. Strong religious conviction, they held, was necessary for maintaining upright and loyal subjects. The rulers of Russia, Austria and Prussia agreed that challenges to their authoritarian rule by liberalism and revolution ought to remain suppressed. Within Russia, Tsar Alexander I had to reform the state of Russia quite a bit as territories such as Poland and Finland were at risk of being lost due to nationalistic movements within them . Therefore, the Tsar decided to try to unify Poland with Russia, giving them a similar constitution to the one in Russia. Being enlightened by western and philosophical theories, Alexander successfully modernized the highly traditional monarchy in Russia and began the process of creating a constitutional monarchy. It was Alexander who felt that the key to successful constitutional rule was the abolition of serfdom, an institution that dominated Russia for more than 600 years, in order to boost the nation’s economy. A plan to abolish…

    Brazil was discovered by Pedro Alvarez Cabral in the name of Portugal on April 22, 1500. During the 1530 's colonists from Portugal began to settle in Brazil and started establishing large sugar cane plantations. "Brazilian sugar, sold in Europe, brought wealth to Portugal."(Galloway) Large settlements like Recife, Salvador, and Sao Vicente were created and the Portuguese prospered. In time, two classes had developed. The first class was the reinois, those born in Portugal, and the second, the mazombos, the native-born Brazilians (although still pure Portuguese peoples). "The mazombos disliked those reinois who arrived in the New World to exploit it and then return with [Brazilian] riches to Portugal."(Burnes,16) After diamonds and gold were found in Minas Gerais, Brazil became a huge profit to Portugal. Over three million "colonists and slaves lived in Brazil. The slaves made up more than half the population."(Galloway) Aside from the conflicts between the mazombo and reinois classes, Brazil was a very prosperous colony. After France invaded Portugal and the Portuguese fled to Brazil, the colony became even more important, reaching "to the status of a kingdom." (Galloway) Afterwards, Brazil 's prosperous times went downhill. Soon enough, the Portuguese royal family could return…

    The Neolithic Era, also known as the New Stone Age, had a profound impact on civilization and how they lived. (Ramirez et al 13) There were advancements made in tools, agriculture and in the domestication of animals. All of the above led to the hunter gatherers of the past, or Nomads, to become families that settled down together and began raising their own food and crops. (Ramirez et al 10) Ultimately this created permanent settlements such as, villages, cities and ultimately empires; a new culture and society. (Watkins)…

    The Russian Revolution of 1905, while it ultimately failed to overthrow the Tzarist regime, was said by several people, including Lenin, to be a ‘dress rehearsal’ for the Russian Revolution of 1917. Russia was an autocratic country ruled by an autocratic Tzar, where the Tzar ruled as he wished and was supported by the privileged nobles, who owned land and serfs. The distinction between the poor and the wealthy was great, and despite the attempts by Alexander II to modernize Russia by introducing reforms, the reforms ultimately acerbated the situation. This paper will identify several social and economic modernisations that were attempted and thwarted by a reactionary regime, as well as other causes that led to the Russian Revolution of 1905.…
