In the 1200s Two very different Empires were thriving and have become very well known and they were called, the Islamic Empire and the Mongol Empire. Even though they are similar, they are far more different than alike. One reason they are far more different is because, they used very different ways of conquering to get more land so they could expand their Empires. The way Mongols conquered land from others was by warfare. If the Mongol Empire was shown any resistance they would show no mercy.

As Milkman finds himself alone in the dark woods, Guitar jumps him and a bobcat ends up dead, the novel Song of Solomon by Toni Morrison questions, yet again, the identity of Milkman. As the hunters begin skinning the bobcat head to claws, it seems as if Milkman hears the old words of Guitar after each body part is cut, these lines directly correlated to Milkman’s feelings as he transform from a privileged city boy, to a heroic figure clad in camouflage and a new type of strength. The scene shows the violence towards white men in the hunter’s vulgar procedure, the stripping away of masculinity but also some type of re birth for Milkman. Could Milkman be the bobcat? The patient animal, staying lone but sneakily using it’s strength to make a move.

Modern historians claim that because of the fast expansion of the two supremacies they eventually lost control over land and power. The rapid colonization of lands led to an increase of defenses on each border and territory, after some time, the armies of the two empires became over-stretched from the constant demand. Ultimately, the empires became bankrupt, leaving them defenseless and prone to invasion. Another plausible explanation for the fall of the two empires was the danger of barbaric invasion. As result of rapid spread of the two empires, many foreign enemies were made.
The three kingdoms were territorial and fought for control over each others people. China tried to take control over Koguryo

All discrimination, racism, and stereotyping against the Native Americans, was bound to happen the day Columbus landed in the Caribbean; after that it just went downhill. The English and French colonists joined the Spanish, and their colonization of the north-west was what led to the plight of the native population. Then the treaties started rolling over the native peoples, which at first seemed like good agreements, but then the treaties began to be violated. Some of the worst violations were made against the Cherokee Nation.
