There were many ancient civilizations that conveyed their religious beliefs, spirituality, and worldviews through their architecture, decorations, and other artistic mediums. The three cultures that stand out the most in regards to their beliefs being conveyed through architecture and art are Cahokia, Nubia, and India. Cahokia was a Mississippian civilization located in what is modern day North America. One of the unique cultural aspects within their government, known as the chiefdom, was the way in which the ruler of Cahokia was treated in regards to their gods. In a chiefdom, the ruler is hereditary and the chiefdom is based on a gift-giving and communal culture.

The Overthrow happened on January 17, 1893 against the Hawaiian Kingdom. With the support of U.S. Minister Stevens, American troops, and the Committee of Safety, Queen Liliuokalani was forced to surrender the throne to the U.S. The Overthrow was caused mainly byunjustified thanks to Minister Stevens, who brought American troops towards Iolani Palace. , Although their action was illegal, and they held the Queen at gunpoint which was immoral. Also, it was unwarranted sincedue to the queen wasbeing against war and bloodshed, andso she really had no choice but to give up her throne if she didn’t want the chaos of physical violence happening.
The Hawaiian Kingdom emerged from the arrival of Polynesians from other Pacific islands and later the unification of the islands by Kamehameha the Great. The Kingdom of Hawaii had a monarchy government system, where the rulers were of the same family and royal blood. King Kalakaua was the last king of Hawaii and Queen Lili’uokalani was the last ruler of Hawaii. While Queen Lili’uokalani was locked away from her throne, she sat under house-arrest in the hopes the next heir to the throne, Princess Ka’iulani would make a change for the better of Hawaii’s sovereignty. Into the present, the Hawaiian Monarchy has been overthrown, annexed and in control by the United States of America.
Three articles were revealed, while discussing the Movie, Moana, was stereotypical to the Polynesian culture. There was much controversy on this subject. Disney was justified in creating the Moana film and was not culturally insensitive to the Polynesian people because they hired authentic Polynesians to work for the film, they tried not to stereotype and generalize and, they went to different Polynesian places to study for the movie. The actor for Moana, Auli’l Cravalho, and the songwriter, Opetaia Foa’i, were both raised in Polynesian culture.
In the Hawaiian language, Lanikai means “heavenly sea” and when I would gaze upon the beach I knew why. The golden, toe wiggling sand was so soft I could walk for miles. The tranquil Hawaiian waters were so crystal clear with hints of turquoise and greenish shades, it felt like I was in a dream. When I glared at the sea, feathers of golden light cascaded from the sky and disembarked below the water’s surface, reflecting the sand from the oceans foundations, which fought against the down-pouring

Imperialism was a controversial idea that a nation can extend its power outward through means of diplomatic or military force. This often results in a shift of power from one major force currently in control to another. The people of that nation under control conflict may also experience wars, rebellions, or cultural destruction. Looking at some of these events, we see some positives and negatives of imperialistic action taken by the United States, and how it affected the nations imperialized by the United States. For starters, let’s look at Hawaii’s annexation.
The overthrow of the Hawaiian Kingdom was in the year of 1893 and transpired during the reign of David Kalakaua and Queen Lili’uokalani. During this significant event, many monarchs, royalists, republicans, and revolutionaries were involved, with the exception of the many Hawaiians who had been against the annexation (Pitzer). While talking about annexation, the overthrow had been a key event that led to the annexation of Hawaii to the United States. When Hawaii was still under the reign of King David Kalakaua, he was forced to sign the Bayonet Constitution under duress. Queen Lili’uokalani had yielded her throne in order to avoid bloodshed and trusted that the United States government would right the wrong that had been done to her and the Hawaiian people (Pitzer).
American imperialism: the result of capitalism, business, and trade; the result of fear, competition with other countries, and the quest for furthering an economy—proven with the acquisition of Hawaii and the removal of its ruler, Queen Liliuokalani. Why and how did that happen, and in which ways did it impact the world? The United States removed Hawaii’s queen out of imperialism, an avarice for control of the rich natural resources, and the strategic military standpoint Hawaii provided them with. This changed Hawaii to a tourist base and sugarcane phenomenon, boosting the United States’s economy, but also caused a decline in the population of the Native Hawaiians. The possession of Hawaii also led to the United States’s involvement in World
The area of the Khina culture is a plateau region in the mountains, surrounded by slopes and lots of rocks located in central Africa. The group living in the region is a pastoralism/early agriculture-based society, needing to grow food and collect supplies to prepare and cultivate their crops. It has been well documented that the transition into agriculture was very hard on humans as a whole, all around the world, and this would have been no different living where the Khina people lived. While little formal and recent archaeological excavations have been done in the area, the ethnographic record with recorded accounts from around the 1920s is extensive and provides a lot of information about what could be expected in an excavation of the area
