History

Answer:

The Polynesians were indigenous peoples, their expansion of human colonization by the remote Pacific began around 1600 BC, while the Vikings were descendants of the Germanic peoples and began to move to the European region 4,000 years ago.

The trips of the Polynesians were in canoes, they were dedicated to agriculture and navigation. They sailed from Tahiti to Hawaii, reaching Easter Island. Instead, the Vikings were merchants but also very aggressive looters, they began their explorations by attacking the coasts of England, Ireland, and Scotland. They also looted and burned cities in France, Belgium, Holland, Italy, and Spain, although they did not settle.

Today, Polynesians are spread over an area that forms an immense triangle, with the Hawaiian Islands, New Zealand, and Easter Island as vertices. The Vikings settled in Scandinavia, a region that includes Denmark, Norway, and Sweden.

Vesnalui [34]

In Tinker v. Des Moines, the Supreme Court ruled that the wearing of a black armband in protest of the Vietnam War was not a substantial disruption of the school environment and was therefore protected speech.

It is the first major case to determine the speech rights of students.

In Hazelwood v. Kuhlmeier, the Supreme Court placed a limit on the speech rights of students when it ruled that it was permissible for a school to censor the actions of a school newspaper.

This is important as it provides a limit on the speech rights of students.

At issue in both cases are how the speech is disruptive to the school environment and many cases since then have hinged on the importance of the speech (protest in Tinker v. spreading gossip in Hazelwood) and the manner in which the speech is undertaken.

Furkat [3]

It is similar to the Continental Congress which forged unity among the colonies.
