<span>Some here say China was weak, the losers in all wars are the weaker combatant. People here want to act like this was different than other wars but this is just how most wars are fought. One nation is stronger than the other so it forces its will on the weaker nation. An example would be the CCP forcing its will on the people of Tibet. China was the stronger and Tibet was the weaker. Sometimes the weaker nation can prolong these conflicts long enough that it becomes too costly for the stronger nation to continue. Then the weaker nation can get better conditions. China had the advantage of geography, it was very expensive for the foreign nations to fight in China but China had no unity or will. The powers in control cared little about what they had to give up, they figured the Chinese people would pay for the cost. The rules only care was to retain power. But the foreign nations did have superior everything.</span>

How did the Magdalene societies work to abolish prostitution?
nordsb [41]

The Magdalen Society of Philadelphia was a private charitable organization founded in 1800 to redeem prostitutes and other "fallen" women. This was the first association in the United States that sought to rescue and reform wayward women. A number of local clergymen and citizens affiliated with Quaker, Episcopal and Presbyterian denominations met to form the Society. Bishop William White, the nation's highest-ranking Episcopal bishop, was the first president of the Society, which officially incorporated in 1802. The organization was based on Magdalen hospitals in England and Ireland, which were named for Mary Magdalene. Similarly designated groups were soon started in other American cities in the early 19th century.

<h3>What is commodity money?</h3>
  • Money that derives its worth from the commodity from which it is made is known as commodity money.
  • Commodity money is made up of things that have worth or utility beyond only being exchangeable for products (intrinsic value).
  • This contrasts with fiat money, which derives its value from having been established as money by government regulation, and representational money, which has no intrinsic worth but instead represents something valuable like gold or silver, which can be exchanged.
<h3>What is flat money?</h3>
  • A form of currency known as fiat money is not backed by any physical good, like gold or silver.
  • Usually, the government declares something to be legal tender through a decree.
  • Fiat money has occasionally been created throughout history by regional banks and other organizations.
