From the diary of a Surgeon at Valley Forge
<span>The Royal Society. The full name of the group when it originated was "The President, Council and Fellows of the Royal Society of London for Improving Natural Knowledge." The group of science-minded men began their organization in 1660 and sought and received a charter of incorporation from King Charles II in 1662. Some of the key people in getting the group started were Christopher Wren and Robert Boyle. While the Royal Society had official endorsement from the king and to this day continues to have the blessing of the British government, it was and is an voluntary organization, not a government agency. During the Scientific Revolution, the Royal Society served as a clearinghouse of knowledge and a network to connect those pursuing scientific discovery. A great book that shows the role the Royal Society played in the Scientific Revolution is: Ingenious Pursuits: Building the Scientific Revolution, by Lisa Jardine (1999).</span>
The holocaust was an extremely violent act of prejudice against Jews from Germans, there were almost 6 million Jews killed and even more that weren’t Jews. Scientists did experiments on Jews that usually killed them. Jews were often sent to concentration camps and we killed with poisonous gases and then burnt. Hitler (the ruler of Germany) wanted the world to be a certain race of people (blonde hair blue eyes) he called this the final plan. He would kill anyone he deemed unfit or unattractive.
The Nuremberg trials were the prosecution of people who planned or contributed to the violent actions toward Jews or anyone deemed “unfit to live”
The answer to this question can be quite subjective. Some people will say that the telephone is the most important invention, or the automobile, or the plane, but for me personally, I'd choose antibiotics.
It is a modern-day invention (as opposed to the Middle Ages, for example) which changed our lives for the better. Before penicillin was discovered in the 1920s by Alexander Fleming, people were constantly dying because of most harmless diseases. But after antibiotics were invented, people were given a chance to recover from their illnesses much more easily.
Wilson wanted to created lasting peace across nations, so aimed for the creation of the League of Nations(later known as UN). The United States never joined it, and many people didn't want the country getting involved in foreign affairs
