<span>Good Morning!
The phenomenon that did not occur in England but occurred in France during the period of revolutions was the extension of votes to a greater number of men. Violent revolutions, as well as popular demonstrations and increased middle-class power occurred in a similar way, mainly because of the growth of the bourgeoisie's financial power. In 1831, for example, only 4,500 men out of a total of 2.6 million people had the right to vote in England.

In the late 1800s, political machines remained in power mostly by trading money and favors for votes. As more and more immigrants entered Americans cities, the political machines began to provide them with food, clothing, and shelter in exchange for loyal devotion at the ballot box. These immigrants rarely spoke English fluently and struggled to survive, therefore many readily took up the offers of these urban political machines.
<span>The Indian peoples of the Northeastern woodlands were the storybook Indians - "skulking" through the "dark forest primeval," plying the many lakes in birch-bark canoes, saving the Pilgrims at Plymouth, trading furs for guns with the Europeans, and bequeathing to the English language such words as tomahwak, papoose, squaw, powwow, sachem, and wigwam. In no other region of native North America were the cultures of its aboriginal inhabitants more disrupted by the Europeans than in the Woodlands. It was here that the myths to legitimatize English conquests were constructed, and it was here that the wholesale appropriation of the resources of the native peoples began: trees and fur-bearing mammals, fish, and of course the land itself. One of the most pervasive myths, and one which has made its way into numerous tellings is that of the "skulking Indians" living in "primeval forests." Neither of these images is true. Indians didn't skulk and the forests were hardly primeval. Indians moved about their world as all people did and the forests they inhabited were far from primeval, in that they had been home to Indians for more than 12,000 years. And during those 12 millennia, the Indians had remade the forests through a variety of environmental management techniques, including the use of fire.
