What was the effect of the destruction of buffalo on native Americans?
pashok25 [27]
   Years ago Native Americans discovered what they believed was a gold mine. They noticed a herd of 30 to 60 million Buffalo's roaming the plains. The Native Americans hunted the buffalo so they can maintain an accurate amount of food. By the 1700's the Native Americans tamed some of the buffalo, which made hunting easier. The Native Americans moved with the herds so they can have a good supply of food. The Native people used different methods of hunting. One method use is called the Dog Soldier. A group of Native people who are called this, push some of the herd over a cliff so some of the animals would die. During winter they would chance the larger animals onto frozen lakes and slaughter them. The ice made it difficult for the buffalo to run. Warriors did the killing. The woman were responsible for getting the meat. The rest of the buffalo was used for clothing, shelter and weapons. Native American knew that their survival depended on the buffalo. They never killed too many. They only killed wanted they needed and celebrated the life of the buffalo after.

Where and when did the allies open a second front in Europe
vladimir1956 [14]
Second Front. In November 1943, Joseph Stalin, Winston Churchill, and Franklin D. Roosevelt met together in Teheran, Iran, to discuss military strategy and post-war Europe. Ever since the Soviet Union had entered the war, Stalin had been demanding that the Allies open-up a second front in Europe.

Allies opened a second front in Europe, but it was a long process that took years. Taking years to plan and come up with ideas on how they would do this, this got a code name called Operation Overload. By June 1944, almost 3 million troops were ready for the invasion. On June 6, 1944, the day known as D-Day had started. 4,000 ships filled with Allies invaded France. Although going under heavy gunfire, the Allies pushed on. They would not retreat. More and more Allies continued coming onto France, eventually reaching Paris. After four years of being ruled by the Nazis, France was finally free.
