In 1849 Carl Schurz came to America. He settled in Wisconsin, studied law, heard Abraham Lincoln debate Stephen A. Douglas, and became a big Lincoln fan. When Lincoln was elected president in 1860, he named Carl Schurz ambassador to Spain. Then he asked Schurz to come home to fight in the Civil War and made him a general.


After the war, Schurz became a newspaper writer, an editor, a U.S. senator, and secretary of the interior See It Now - Carl Schurz Addressing the Reform Conference. He worked to conserve the wilderness and to be fair to Indians when hardly anyone thought of those things. Like many American immigrants, Schurz had fallen in love with the ideals of the Declaration of Independence and the guarantees of the Constitution: "If you want to be free," he said, "there is but one way. It is to guarantee an equally full measure of liberty to all your neighbors."

How did the greeks play a role in introducing democracy to the world?
Sliva [168]
It's a false legend promoted by today's democratic governments.

In fact democracy in Ancient Greece wasn't how we know it today:

-It was only limited at the city of Athen

-Only adult rich men born in Athen with both the parents citizens of Athen could vote, in fact that was a minority

Most important
-People absolutely didn't like democracy, not who couldn't vote, they didn't care, but philosophers like Plato.

If you want I'll link sources in the comments, now I'm not at home.
