The main idea of Toussaint L'Ouverture in this passage is that after being the first black republic carried out by slaves successfully in the world (Haiti in 1804), the citizens would not allow other countries, such as Great Britain or Spain, to take possession of their land again and get back to the situation and life they lived in slavery.
The Treaty of Paris, which was signed on 3 September 1783 between Great Britain and the United States, is the end point of the War of Independence of the 13 Colonies of the future United States. The greatest importance was the migratory and political effect that in the next 150 years would be noticed in the world. If the United States had not been a free country, not even a country foreign to England, all immigration to America from the European countries would not exist, the United States acted as a desissive power in the Second War, and as a promoter of industrial development, changing the world power of Europe to the new American continent; as well as inspiring revolutions and independence in other colonies.
The National Security Council was created by the National Security Act of 1947 and started functioning in September 1947.
Line agency is when the Congress and the president set goals and to accomplish the agencies help them. Staff agency is when the council offers advice and assistance to the chief executive and other administrators.
An example of the use of the NSC as a line agency is the fight against terror after the attacks of September 11, 2001, when the agency had the authorization to kill individuals who were suspected terrorists.
An example of the use of the NSC as a staff agency is when they advice the president and help him manage international crisis, such as declarations of war.
<span>The Delian League was formed by Athens in 478 B.C. to protect the Greek city-states against the Persian Empire. The representatives of the various city-states met annually at Delos, where the League's treasury was kept. However soon relations between Athens and Sparta, the other strong city-state deteriorated. Over time Athens itself became a tyranny. The League became an Athenian Empire. After the Persian threat diminished Athens became aggresive. The Athenians transferred the treasury to Athens in 454 B.C. It became obligatory to join the League. It was not allowed to secede from the League. A Thrasian revolt was brutally crushed in 463 B.C. Tribute money from the various city-states was used to rebuild temples in Athens. When Athens went to war with the Peloponnesian League, led by Sparta, the other city-states were forced to contribute men, money and ships. I hope that this has been a help to you.</span>
