The scientific revolution was the creation of modern science, and scientific study. It occurred during the 1500's and 1600's, and was caused by the Renaissance. The Enlightenment was where every social, political, and economic problem would be solved through the use of reason.
World War I, also known as the Great War, began in 1914 after the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria. His murder catapulted into a war across Europe that lasted until 1918. During the conflict, Germany, Austria-Hungary, Bulgaria and the Ottoman Empire (the Central Powers) fought against Great Britain, France, Russia, Italy, Romania, Japan and the United States (the Allied Powers). Thanks to new military technologies and the horrors of trench warfare, World War I saw unprecedented levels of carnage and destruction. By the time the war was over and the Allied Powers claimed victory, more than 16 million people—soldiers and civilians alike—were dead.
The Texas State Senate
Under Texas law, The House of Representatives begins the process of impeachment. The House must cast a majority vote in favor of impeachment in order for impeachment proceedings to be pursued. The trial of impeachment then is conducted by the State Senate. If impeached, the official is removed from office. If there are further criminal charges to be brought, those are then handled by separate indictment and criminal trial.
In the history of the state of Texas, two state officials have been successfully impeached. Governor James Ferguson was removed from office in 1917 over charges of embezzlement and misuse of public funds. District Judge O.P. Carrillo was impeached in 1975 on income tax charges and then was convicted on criminal charges.
