Racism and the French resistance
The headlines reporting the journey of Napoleon across France changed as the one of the great men of History approached Paris.
Napoleon had been held for ten months on the prison island of Elba, off the coast of Italy, before he escaped his exile. On his return from expulsion the headlines showed the vigorous spirit of detractors as well as admirers, both infected with passion and momentum.
As an example:
<em>"THE ANTHROPOMORPHOUS HAS QUITTED HIS DEN"</em>
<em>"THE CORSICAN OGRE HAS LANDED AT CAPE JUAN"</em>
<em>"THE TIGER HAS ARRIVED AT CAP"</em>
This return to Paris was epic and magnificent. Many of the French were too glad to have their Emperor back, and Napoleon quickly reconstituted an army. But three months later Napoleon suffered his final defeat at the Battle of Waterloo, and was again forced to surrender and abdicate his power.
A rivalry developed between Spain and Portugal over the exploration of the seas. When King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella of Spain heard of King Manuel's plans to send ships west to claim for Brazil, they asked him to wait until it was decided to whom the seas and conquests belonged.
In 1493, Pope Alexander VI established the Treaty of Tordesillas, which divided the world in two. Portugal could claim lands East of the Line of Demarcation, and Spain could claim lands West of the line.
