The 4th of July is referred to "Independence Day."
We celebrate the 4th of July for the remembrance of the acceptance of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776. That Declaration of Independence stated that the thirteen American colonies were no longer apart of the British Empire, and formed into the United States of America. The thirteen stripes on the American flag stand for the 13 American colonies who declared their independence.
The 4th of July, it is the birth of the United States of America.

Upon entering a modern record store, one is confronted with a wide variety of choices in recorded music. These choices not only include a multitude of artists, but also a wide diversity of music categories. These categories run the gamut from easy listening dance music to more complex art music. On the complex side of the scale are the categories known as Jazz and Classical music. Some of the most accomplished musicians of our time have devoted themselves to a lifelong study of Jazz or Classical music, and a few exceptional musicians have actually mastered both. A comparison of classical and Jazz music will yield some interesting results and could also lead to an appreciation of the abilities needed to perform or compose these kinds of music. Let's begin with a look at the histories of the two. The music called classical, found in stores and performed regularly by symphonies around the world, spans a length of time from 1600 up to the present. This time frame includes the Renaissance, Baroque, Classical, Romantic and Contemporary periods. The classical period of music actually spans a time from of 1750 to 1800; thus, the term Classical is a misnomer and could more correctly be changed to Western Art Music or European Art Music. European because most of the major composers up till the 20th century were European. Vivaldi was Italian, Bach was German, Mozart and Beethoven were Austrian; they are some of the more prominent composers. Not until the twentieth century with Gershwin and a few others do we find American composers writing this kind of art music. For the sake of convention, we can refer to Western Art Music as Classical music. Jazz is a distinctively American form of music, and it's history occupies a much smaller span of time. Its origins are found in the early 1900s as some dance band leaders in the southern U.S. began playing music that combined ragtime and blues. Early exponents of this dance music were Jelly Roll Martin (a blues player) and Scott Joplin (ragtime).

Procopius indirectly sets his standards for an ideal Roman ruler by criticizing profuse amounts of Justinian's deeds. In Procopius opinion, a Roman emperor should be characterized by traits that completely differ from those of Justinian and Theodora.
<span>The correct answer should be B.. He created one of the world's first empires. He was one of the first rulers in the world and many Mesopotamian rulers later looked up to him and thought that he was the greatest ruler in history. Although there might be claims by some Sumerian scholars that other leaders were the first, Sargon is still officially recognized as the first.</span>
