Obviously the treatment in concentration/extermination camps was unimagineable. But where there any instances when victims got their own back (gaurds/owners suffered, for instance), and out of intrest -
what do you think let those involved in this tortue think it was acceptable? obviously, some wont have, but how could Adolf justify all this in his mind?!?! Is there any sort of mental illness that could explain why he thought as he did, or was he just - evil?

Skara Brea was a country side found after a sandstorm. It was there ever since the 1800's. There are amazing orkney stones and cool houses made out of sandstone for there shelter. It looks amazing if you search on the web for pics of orkney houses, how they were made. I am just wondering that if our people live there know. Scientists are still discovering how the poor had shelter, food, clothing and etc. They found a big circle made out of mud, with orkney stones around it, which os chipped off today. But they believe it was a huge rectangle long ago. I don't think airplanes fly to Skara Brea. It is an interesting place. I want to go there some time. I saw all the real pictures on telivision, school, books and on the web about Skara Brea.

as we know, Japanese suffered a great loss after the World War II, especially Hiroshima and Nagasaki after the two atomic boms are dropped.

Also, 57% of Tokyo's dwellings and 60% of Okasa were gone by the end of WWII. Their total industrial production was at a 10% of prewar level

So Japan suffered a great loss.
However, as a sword has two sides, what are some of the advantages that Japan gained or benefits which they got as a result of the war?

PS: Please inform me if there are any wrong info i've typed, thanks

Lets perhaps mention Macbeth's downfall of his insatiable ambition.But ambition isn't necessarily a bad thing.Could it be about power thats so alluring?Power corrupts;absolute power corrupts absolutely...so goes the adage.If its only about recruiting effective men,then Hitler might have graduated with honors...well in modern history,anyway.
