Joan of Arc had an important role in the Hundred Years’ War for a French peasant girl who basically led France to its victory, and was able to save the monarchy. During her teenage years, Joan started to hear voices, which she claimed to be the voices of Saint Michael, Saint Catherine, and Saint Margaret. Later on, those voices spoke to her telling her that the dauphin had to be crowned and that the English had to be expelled from France.

Dear Sirs, With a lot of research, it is concluded that the colonies are not ready to help with the war between Great Britain and the French due to their cultural characteristics, willingness to help the king, motivations of leaving Great Britain to go to the colonies. It would be very difficult for only the southern colonies to defend Britain from the French since the middle and New England colonies would not defend Great Britain because they left Britain because of cultural reasons. The geography and climate of the regions the colonies are in would help with the war because of their growth season and the crops they make.

For this assignment I have chosen the quote: “ Words can be like X-rays, if you use them properly–they'll go through anything. ”(Huxley 72), from chapter four of Brave New World by Aldous Huxley.

He uses the quote above to profess his ambitions to his friend, Bernard Marx. I relate to this quote because I understand the importance of words, but, unlike Helmholtz, often have trouble being concise.

Academic scholars have covered elements of Indian warfare and the Indian culture from the Beaver Wars of the seventeenth century to the end of what may be considered the Sixty Years’ War, which consisted of various conflicts between the Eastern Woodland Indians and Europeans. Little has been done to cover the related conflict in Western Pennsylvania other than the battles during the French and Indian War. What I have not found is any study of the relationship between culture and warfare against the Europeans. The research I have been doing is directly influencing how I will approach my topic and possibly change my thesis. Historians may have focused more on Pontiac’s influence in the Great Lakes region of the conflict as well as the bulk
