The Massacre at Wounded Knee is extremely symbolic of the tense relationship that has existed between the United States and Native Americans for most of the history of the country. The massacre took place when American soldiers attempted to drive the Sioux tribe from their land. A series of misunderstandings and miscommunications led to the American soldiers firing their guns. 300 Sioux people died as a result. The incident illustrates the difficulties that cultural differences and language differences presented for the peaceful interactions of both groups.

Who had more power in medieval Europe: popes or kings. Why?
Goryan [66]
The Pope was given the victory and the power at the time, however, it was short lived and eventually was one of the reasons that led to the future collapse of the Middle Ages.Why? Because he was able to decide what the church would teach and more importantly during this time he was able to determine who was an enemy of the church. If the Pope deemed someone as a foe of the church, he was able to Excommunicate those who opposed his teachings. With these changes, the Pope was able to gain a vast amount of political power as well as fame and fortune, due to his followers, and ultimately challenge the King for supreme power throughout the land.
