Before Phoenicians became a great civilization, they were just a bunch of cities in what today is Lebanon. These cities lived among empires for a long time, the Greeks to the West, the Persians to the East, and the Egyptians to the South-West, and they survived thanks to trade. The region in which they lived was in the middle of trading routes between these empires and other cultures and, since they lived in the coastline of the Eastern Mediterranean Sea, they became great sailors. They combined their sailing abilities with their commerce abilities to trade different goods -wood, slaves, glass- throughout the Mediterranean and, slowly, became a great rich naval and trading power. They traveled as far as the Iberian peninsula in order to get silver and then sell it to the Egyptians.

Explanation:
On April 4, 1968, Martin Luther King was assassinated and Senator Robert F. Kennedy had given a speech. These lines are taken from that speech where he's giving a choice to the people to create the kind of future they want for their country. Whether it is the desire for revenge or whether it is to make the effort like Luther and understand with compassion and love. He also talks about the effects of violence on the country and largely on the people. He encourages the people to create a United States filled with love and wisdom, and compassion towards one another and not division, hatred or violence.
