Native Americans

1. About 50 percent of the native Indian population lives on reservations. The majority of the reservations are situated west of the Mississippi River.

2. Unemployment, poverty, alcoholism, drug abuse, high rates of diabetes and heart disease are a concern. Because of all the prejudices they get unemployed, and this leads to poverty and so on, alcoholism and then the rest of the remaining.

3. Limitations on tribal powers of self-government include the same limitations applicable to states; for example, neither tribes nor states have the power to make war, engage in foreign relations, or coin money.

Stolen Generation

Checkpoints:

1. The first Aborigines settlers where from the Asian mainland an the islands north of the Australian continent.

2. The Aborigines was halved because of diseases, smallpox was one of them. The whites wanted the best areas to cultivate and start their lives, so the moved the native population to other places.

3. It is estimated that more than 100, 000 children were taken away from their parents.

Research and Discover(One):

1. The Māori originated with settlers from eastern Polynesia, who arrived in New Zealand in several waves of canoe voyages at some time between 1250 and 1300. To many Maori people today, the most significant issue in New Zealand remains that of land.

Aborigines:

Since the European invasion of Australia in 1788, the Aboriginal people have been oppressed into a world unnatural to their existence for thousands of years. First came the influx of the strangers who carried with them diseases, which decimated the immediate population of the Sydney tribes. It is estimated that over 750,000 Aboriginal people inhabited the island continent in 1788. The colonists were led to believe that the land was terra nullius, which Lt James Cook declared Australia to be in 1770 during his voyage around the coast of Australia.

Maori:

The ancestors of the Māori were a Polynesian people originating from south-east Asia. Some historians trace the early Polynesian settlers of New Zealand as migrating from today's China, making the long voyage traveling via Taiwan, through the South Pacific and on to Aotearoa (New Zealand).

The anthropologist Thor Heyerdahl, on the other hand, claims that the Polynesians arrived in the Pacific from America, rather than from the East, as other scholars claim. Heyerdahl bases his theory on the fact that the kumara, staple cultivated food crop of the pre-European New Zealand Māori, originates from central South America. Around thirty thousand years ago, Polynesian forbears inhabited the Bismarck Archipelago, to the east of New Guinea. These people had a Lapita culture, of which earthenware pots, distinctive and highly colored, were a characteristic. This particular pottery was given the name of Lapita Ware, after an archaeological site in New Caledonia.

3. Because they have been to different islands and cam in different decades, so they have been built up in different ways. Then the experiences follow up to be different when they live on different islands and have different cultures.

The Imitation Game

Alan Turing was a man with many qualities, but he as any others had his weaknesses. He was a smart fella with outstanding math knowledge. But his weakness was to know how to act when he was with other people and how to act socially. Love was not his strongest side either. He also was a homosexual, but pretended to be straight.
His mathematical skills was amazing, he was the one solving The Enigma code. In the start his team was not happy with him on the team, because he was acting weird among people and preferred to work alone.

Events in American History

1. Because many of the colonists felt like they were Americans. It started to be conflicts around these colonies, so for avoiding problems it was a good reason.

2. Today the infrastructure is so good so we don't need to colonize other countries. Now days we can talk with each other very easily. Back in time it was harder to travel across countries and talk to each other so colonies back in the time was very good to have. Today it isn't necessarily to have colonies in my opinion.

3. The Americans feel this is important for safety, but i think it's very dumb. Because of this it is massacres and much crime. It is only the feeling of being safe you get. How many people would fire shots with the gun they got?
