Alexander
Genghis Kaghn

but who are some more modern explorers who took much land and made history

I reamember reading a study on modern war, based on oil usage.

In World War II we fought (the US alone) for 4 years. Probbaly used up zillions of gallons of fuel, millions per day. This included ship fuel, plane fuel, tanks, trucks, and whatever else.

But yet when a study was done on a Modern war (world War III) it was assumed that no modern military could last more then 2 weeks (including a invasion on Europe by the Soviet Union), and that after that time one of the sides would be out of fuel.

Is this reasonable?

Could we use up that much fuel that fast?

Were talking the SOviet union which just happens to sit on one of the biggest untapped (so far) resource bed on earth.

Also it was said the same for NATO.

But even without oil from the middle east surely it could last longer.

What slogan was bandied about in the 1630’s and 1640’s in England out of protests against King Charles I’s attempts to raise money based solely on his sovereign rights?

I've heard a lot about how a lot of people think he faked his death.

Could someone please explain this to me?

Maybe give me the facts, or something about why some people think he faked it?

Will I understand better if I read facts about his death?

Do you think he faked it? Why?

Thanks in advanced.

Although not originally constructed in the U.S., St. Joan of Arc Chapel on the Marquette University campus was built in France during the 15th century, possibly earlier, and was moved to its current location in 1964 (stone by stone).

Does anyone know of an older building? If so, when was it constructed and if it is not native to the U.S., where was it originally built?

Does anybody know what types of positions a woman might occupy during WWII, what food might have been readily available during the war, or a source online that might have good information about everyday life in Japan during World War II (especially pertaining to women but not necessary)?

Thanks so much!

I was reading our family letters last night and it said we had relatives who served in King James court. Haha and I don't mean the basketball player King James court. I am not sure if this is James I or II, but it says our family was hurt by Cromwell "pauperizing" the court, and from the text it sounds like James came before Cromwell, so this must be James I right? Here is the exact wording:

"Great old days for our ancestors - until Cromwell came - James dethroned and reformation movement pauperized court of King James"....

I thought Cromwell kind of dethroned Charles II and not James?

The sad thing is, I am majoring in history. I just haven't studied this era that much.
