History

An oath is a verbal promise to tell the truth made while holding the Bible. A witness may choose to swear an oath on another relevant religious text. An affirmation is a verbal, solemn and formal declaration, which is made in place of an oath. A person may choose to make an affirmation rather than taking an oath. It’s making sure they promise not to break it and if they do they have their own words against them.

What was different about warfare in the early 1800s and early 1900s?
xeze [42]
Military development wasn’t all that advanced in the 1800s, also expansionism and uprisals from colonies were the major cause of war. Also, war tactics were not as aggressive or debastating.
