It was manly because of the catholic church which remained in the base of Rome. It drew pilgrims from all over Europe, educated clerics to read and write, support arts and architecture.
White Army
The Western Democracies feared the communist revolutionaries in Russia; and supported the White Army in hopes of stopping the communist Red Army from taking control.
The Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, which brought an official end to the Mexican-American War<span> (1846–48), was signed on February 2, 1848, at Guadalupe Hidalgo, a town near Mexico City. The U.S. paid Mexico $15 million and absorbed another $3 million in debts, and acquired New Mexico, Arizona and California.</span>
Enlightened despots were kings and queens who tried to incorporate the ideas of the Enlightenment into their rule, while keeping their traditional powers. Enlightened despots such as Frederick II of Prussia and Maria Theresa of Austria tried to improve areas such as farming, industry, and education. They were also patrons of the arts and began many humanitarian reforms, like abolishing the use of torture. Maria Theresa's son,
Joseph II, was considered the most radical of the enlightened despots because of the extreme changes he made when he came to power in 1780. (Image: Courtesy of Wikipedia) Joseph II abolished serfdom, made taxes equal for both nobles and peasants, and granted freedom of the press to writers. He also confiscated Catholic Church property and used the money to build hospitals. His actions ultimately failed because he angered too many people. Nobles rebelled against him and he was forced to cancel many of these changes.
Well because Puritans were a group of people with religious moral beliefs this means they were very spiritual and religious, which reminds me of the word pure.
Because religious beliefs require you to have a pure, clean heart before God, this could remind you of the word puritans, pure-itans -- because Puritans were religious.
Also, puritans were a group of English Protestants, that can also help you! Protestants - puritans, both start with P and when you remember the word protestants you'll remember that they protested against the church of England under Queen Elizabeth to change and simply forms of worship because they knew it was not the way it should be.
Lastly, Puritans came right after the Pilgrims in the 1630s. Both these words start with P also and they will remind you that Puritans had a great influence in the world just like the Pilgrims. The puritans grew discontent with how the church of England had become (just like the pilgrims) and they wanted to change it. The Puritans brought a huge impact on the church of England with their Christian passion and beliefs. Both the Pilgrims and the Puritans sought to make a difference in the world in light of their faith and beliefs in God. They both brought a new religious freedom to the world by sharing their Christian faith to the world.
The pilgrims will help you remember who the puritans were :)
So, Ways to Remember
1. PURE-itans (they were members of a religious movement) remember the "pure" in puritans
2. Puritans were Protestants - both start with P (reminds you that they protested against the Church of England & the forms of worship practiced)
3. Puritans and the Pilgrims - (both start with p) remember they shared the same beliefs! and they both fought for their Christian faith and had a huge impact on the Christian church!
Hope this Helps!! Let me know if you have more questions :))
