Naval Operations During The Civil War
1,743 words
At the beginning of the Civil War in 1861, there
was little reason to suspect that the United
States Navy would play a very big role in the war.
The Confederate Navy had absolutely no navy, nor
did they have the ability to create one. The south
did not contain a single plant that could create a

naval standpoint to uphold the independence it had
declared. (Co...

Performing Simple Tasks First Few Weeks Female
805 words
Can a male survive without his mother at college
as well as a female can in performing simple
tasks? I believe that it is more difficult for a
male to go away to college than it is for a
female. A female may inherit a mothering gene,
which could give her some ideas of what to do
while on her own. They have grown up with the
nurturing gene inside of them and this is observed
when they are young playing house as young
children. When it is time for a person to go to
college they are leaving their p...

Assyrian Weapons And Warfare
1,625 words
The Assyrians have long been known as a ruthless
and barbaric people of the ancient civilizations.
While this may be true in some instances, it is
not an entirely accurate view of the Empire of
Assyria. The Assyrians took their warfare
seriously; in fact they studied war techniques
like a science (Riley, 45). The Assyrians even had
special schools set up to teach sapping (military
demolition of walls etc. ) and mining city walls
(Riley, 45). The Assyrians were the innovators of
war in their time...
