A woman in the fight for freedom

She wore men's clothing. They've fought for seventeen years as a military leader at the forefront. Was suppressed opponents of Orleans and the southern Loire Valley. Finally, it was burned as a witch - and centuries later canonized. Yes, speaking of  Joan of Arc.

Joan of Arc, also called the Maid of Orleans in the second half of the Hundred Years War was born. His exact birth date is as famous as his year of birth, but it must have been sometime around 1412, His father was a relatively wealthy farmer and was therefore a simple and devout girl.

Why Joan of Arc fought against the British?
The daughter of a farmer is usually not a warrior. So why Joan of Arc fought against the British? In fact, the basic views: the first received at the age of 12 years. Three people who came before him, and I was sure that this is the St. Catherine of Alexandria and Margaret acted, and Archangel Michael. These three were asked to drive the English of his native France and Charles take Reims, where he was to be crowned.

As Joan was trying to fight against England?
Juana de Arco decided to follow their visions. But of course, no farmer's daughter to fight alone against an army. Therefore, tried to support the rightful king, Charles VII to obtain. However, was the result of attacks by the Burgundians, who was the royal family in the struggle, forced to flee and was now in Chinon, Loire castle.

After three attempts, he got an audience with the city about 17 commanders of the fort for Vaucouleurs. Could convince and was 12 or 13 February, with a small escort of Chinon sent, preceded by a letter of recommendation.

He also managed to win the King in his mind and convince him that he had been in heaven's name. She also earned a coronation at Reims, as he had seen in his vision.

What kind of role they played now?
Although his mission had found Charles VII action - but wanted to ensure that it remains the fact that their order was really important. After several tests finally made it to the defense and gave them a small force. Although men were thieves rather than soldiers, gentlemen, but Joan of Arc really made ​​them.

His first task was ultimately supply the closed city of Orleans. There was 29 in April 1429. On 7 May they dared, motivated by his success to attack the British. The increase, it remains for the fighting spirit of Jeanne, which was on the field, although he had been wounded by an arrow.

What happened after your victory?
Like Joan of Arc had anticipated, Charles VII was crowned in the Cathedral of Reims the king. Even participated in the ceremony: He stood, holding the flag of victory, next to the altar. During the festivities, the king freed his father, as well as all other citizens and Greuxs Domrémys you forever tax.  the coronation of Charles VII reduced the influence of Jeanne d'Arc. Although repeatedly asked to be allowed to move to Paris, he was granted only after some inept strategic decisions of the king. The Burgundians had this time, in which the French army was idle, but used and prepared well for his first attempt to liberate Paris on September 8, 1429 with many deaths from the French end.

How did he die?
Because of this defeat, Charles decided, but rather closer to peace with Burgundy and released in a gesture of peace from the army. Only in October 1429, a new time aufgestellt. Diese the Burgundian army, however, had not left unattended: His army was well treated vorbereitet.Trotzdem Compiegne, to free a village north of Paris.

At first it looked good for them. But then had to move back into the castle. Jeanne, who was the last one did and not before the doors closed and was taken prisoner by the Burgundians. After two attempts to escape that gave the British - for a ransom of 10 000 francs, an amount for a king.

Britons accused of being a witch. In contrast to the usual witch trials, however, she has a real test, the VII Carlos also knew, but did not lift a finger to avoid being associated with a witch and a heretic here. left alone, and fought them. But despite its status as a minor for his unusual eloquence, who lost the case. Joan of Arc was the May 30, 1429 at the age of about 19 burned in public.

How and when is a saint?
24 years after his death, the procedure at the request of the mother of Joan and Jean Brehal General Inquisitors resumed, and by Pope Callistus III. approved. From 7 July 1456 the result was clear: Joan of Arc was executed innocent and even admirable state.

Gonxha (flower bud) was raised in a wealthy family Albanian Catholic. She was raised by his parents, very religious. When she was ten, his father died unexpectedly, he spent more of their faith. At the age of twelve, she chose a life of a nun.

This desire has been steadily pursued her and asked what the age of 18 years to be included in the Order of Loreto. Mother Teresa was like any other person in active charity. In Calcutta, has been caring for the poorest of the poor, the dying, and lepers. Of countless people around the world, is revered, and many see it as a modern saint: "The Saint of channels. " His commitment to human dignity was honored in 1979 with the Nobel Peace Prize, so did as a radical critic of all forms of abortion with a controversial person. He founded the Order of the Missionaries of Charity, which now operates in many countries around the world.

This order was involved with its members, particularly in education in Bengal, India. She could not begin its work in India, but was taken first to the headquarters of the Order of Loreto in Ireland. On September 28, 1928, traveled from Skopje to Ireland. After only two months was allowed to fulfill his dream and join the Order of Loreto in Bengal. In Calcutta, she took her first vows.

He then worked 17 years at St. Mary School in Calcutta. First was a teacher, was promoted to director. In one of his many trips through the crowded city of Calcutta in 1946, felt called by God to help the poor. Only two years later, he received permission to leave the Order. Teresa was exklausiert, d.

h. could leave the order without giving up their status as nuns. From now on, Teresa lived among the poorest of the poor in the slums of Calcutta. A portrait of her now famous Life magazine brought him the nickname "saint of the gutters" on the ground. It was established in 1949 and became an Indian in 1950 the Order of the Missionaries of Charity. The members of this order had to commit to celibacy, poverty and obedience.

Subsequently, the Order was recognized by the Pope and was under their control. Teresa took care of his order, with special attention to the dying, orphans and the sick. Its special commitment, however, was in the care of lepers. Today, more than 3,000 monks and 500 nuns in over 100 countries around the world to the Order of Mother Teresa. For their selfless work has received numerous awards. The most important was undoubtedly the Nobel Peace Prize 1979th

Often a lack of medical training of their employees used to meet Mother Teresa. "Not the result, but the fidelity of faith is important " addition to international recognition for her work was criticized for his conservative ideology. They saw abortion policy in many countries, the "biggest threat to world peace." As should be coordinated in Ireland as to whether divorce should be legalized, called the Irish do vote "no. " A few days after the death of Princess Diana, was very sad, Mother Teresa died on September 5, 1997.With great compassion for the world was buried in Calcutta.

Neanderthal man

Neanderthal man Neanderthal man was more that we, as researchers previously thought. Meanwhile try more than 70 sites in Europe and Asia: The conversation of up to 1.75 meters wide stone-Arnold was able to produce and complicated tools. He took care of sick family members or injured. And buried their dead in graves well tended. Homo sapiens, our ancestors lived, the Neanderthals from side to side thousands - and in no way inferior. Why was all before 25 000 years extinct, we can only guess. Neanderthal - Fighting for survival was a life of adventure with the safety of Neanderthal - and dangerous. Above all, the hunting of bison, woolly rhinos and mammoths was very risky: To kill their prey with a spear, have been lurking hunter approaches. And a mammoth trapped understood not guaranteed fun. Researchers found preceding skull, broken arm and leg bones and ribs broken. This had to deal with Neanderthal contemporaries such as bears, cave lions, wolves or hyenas.

The enormous physical stresses often lead to joint problems and fractures. And they suggest that many dental diseases: most of Neandertals have gone hungry as a child on a regular basis. Life expectancy was so low, the men were on average 25 to 30 years of age, as it did in the 40 th women died from dangerous deliveries usually earlier. After all, the individual was important: he was sick or injured and could not hunt anymore, was driven by the other clan. In a cave in Iraq found two skeletons: one had a poorly healed fracture to the skull, broken ribs and others.

Both were survived both - until an earthquake brought the cave to collapse. People had something to show the exposed graves in the French Le Moustier, a child was discovered with a precious stone ax in hand, surrounded by rocks and pieces of bushmeat. In a family tomb in Iraq today flowers had been established. But there are also such unpleasant findings: Some deaths have been, of course, eating - probably for ritual purposes. Neanderthals - The workmanship and finish, as Neanderthals lived in caves - if it finds any. In the treeless tundra, they built huts made of mammoth bones of woolly rhinoceros skin oy.

Sometimes used these camps for several months before they were in search of food. In general, the Neanderthals were skilled craftsmen. More than 60 different types of stone tools are known, including knives, scrapers and hammers. This enabled skins removed and processed meat cut or broken bone. Very ingenious wooden spears faces sharp stone points. Musically, the Neanderthals have been found in Slovenia as part of a piece of pipe shows that in a bear bone that the artist had drilled a series of holes - play exactly the intervals to a perfect scale.

Why the Neanderthals became extinct? reached 40,000 years ago, who came from Africa "homo sapiens"Europe: Neanderthals competition. Have been fighting the two? There is still no sign. Do you get along well or mixed? We can only suspect. In any case lived Neanderthals and Homo sapiens' long-time side by side. But why Neanderthals from about 25000 years of "homo sapiens" and ousted dead? Perhaps we could plan ahead and therefore had fewer losses in more food shortages. Maybe I was wrong with your body starved for energy in times of famine. Perhaps it was simply more susceptible to disease. Probably all of these reasons played a role - and much more. Scientists have calculated: Despite a higher mortality rate by two percent of Neanderthals have within a few thousand years, a dramatic extinction. Neanderthal - Neanderthal's brain was more muscle than the first true Europeans.

Even experts were puzzled at first: Some doctors believe that a bone disease was to blame for the large spikes protruding eyes.

Only years later, scientists discovered that it was an unknown human species. After the site that are "homo neanderthalensis was called.

The history of maize

The corn comes from Central America, the formation is suspected in central Mexico, where maize is relatively fast to other Indian tribes in the Central, South and North America spread. Even in Canada and Chile came with corn in recent years. If the Indian tribes of Central America and Mexico and the southwestern corn was the most important cereal in the region, as it was a staple. Corn and therefore play an important role in mythology. Corn is the ancient American peoples of Mesoamerica sacred. It was a gift from the gods and livelihoods.

Corn is at the heart of most of the rituals associated with life agriculture of this region. The omnipresence of the corn plant in Mesoamerican mythology is evident in the genesis of the man himself in the myth of origin of the beans and Kakchikel, Ixmukané is the mother goddess, created with the participation of all the heavenly powers that people of ground corn. This connection between man and his food is also found in other traditions and pushing in the Mesoamerican cultures of normal human victims in a different light. The strength, heart and blood of people like the food of the gods of corn. People need to periodically be sacrificed to the gods, the life cycle from year to renew again and again.

In ancient Mesoamerica, maize was the food provided the means to express the sacred and secular life. Corn products deliver up to today in rural areas of Mexico up to 70 percent of the annual caloric intake. In the 15 th century, maize by Spanish explorers brought it to Europe. In the Old World, which started to give an exotic ornamental plant. Corn was cultivated grain, however until 17.

Century and thus displaced local crops. In the poorest segment of the population replaced wheat corn always scarce. At the end of the 17th century occurred more frequently in the poorer southern Europe a deficiency disease, pellagra. Was skin rash, weakness and death. Only in 1937 was recognized that pellagra is operating in continuous use, corn exclusively.

With simple and inexpensive treatment, yeast pellagra disappeared in mid-20th century. In memory remains pellagra as "a disease of development and progress of the disease induced is unfair and creates inequality"

Interpretation: "Wannsee Protocol"

Interpretation: "Wannsee Protocol" The Wannsee Conference was held on 01/20/1942 at Berlin, where one should be clear from the outset that this plan the "Final Solution of the Jewish question in Europe"was. In this discussed / clarified in order to clarify how it would be better to solve the Jewish question, as you (eg, fire, or exposed the truck exhaust) with the means that were used before the Wannsee Conference To destroy the Jews, who did not give very effective targets for the leader of the Reich.

This, said the Wannsee Conference was attended by the Chief of Security Police and SD s', Heinrich Himmler and Reinhard Heydrich, who had been responsible for the creation of concentration camps and extermination. Government officials also attended the Reich and SS officers. Heinrich Himmler was appointed on June 17, 1936 the police chief in Germany. This was the trigger for the Gestapo, which was led by Reinhard Heydrich and the second was appointed by Himmler and detectives have been summarized in a security police, which was also led by Reinhard Heydrich. Therefore, the Kripo tell the Gestapo was so subordinate.

Heydrich was also head of the union with the Security Police and Security Service of the Reich Central Security Office of the SS with the Reich Marshal an idea of what to do with the Jews, had to discuss all headquarters , although it was clear from the outset was that the Jews must be destroyed. As a next step of the leaders decided that one should be in place of emigration, deportation of Jews to labor camps (later also concentration camp) to Poland (east) and are sorted by gender and capacity should work. We knew from the beginning and said that most Jews are not able to work and are immediately put into concentration camps. Jews, it is about these "actions"remains in Germany, the leader of opinion, only the Jews remained in Germany, which were particularly strong, tough, also deal with them accordingly. Ermodert are ruthless, plugged in the concentration camps, so you have to rake, that the Jew is spread, and thus endanger the German race.

Therefore the Jews also is accused of being responsible for the destruction of Germany. He wants to ensure that the solution end of the Jews in Europe, which is a grossly trivializing much of what they really meant by it, namely the murder of the Jews, which will take place from west to east. was the aim of killing a total of 11 million Jews, nationally and internationally, of which, fortunately, "only " astonishing six million exterminated. Finally, I should mention that the Wannsee Conference was a part of the fight against anti-Semitism, which was divided into the following three phases: The first phase was the phase of discrimination 04/01/1933 - 09.

11.1938 took. This is found instead of boycotts of Jewish businesses were the prohibitions to the Jews actually had the passports of Jews thick and large, the letter "J" are all of you has the same name (example: David for Anna men or for women) and were excluded from public events. As the scene, were firm discriminated against.

The second phase was the phase of overt violence, from 11/10/1938 to 01/27/1942 last. Here was the Night of Broken Glass, had been destroyed in the many Jewish shops and synagogues, and especially what was in this period, the killing of Jews in the occupied territories.

The third phase began on 28/01/1942 and ending 08/05/1945, which was the regular phase of mass destruction call. Hosted the Wannsee Conference, which saw the expulsion of the Jews to labor camps and, above all the mass killings in concentration camps.

German Democratic Republic

GDR German Democratic Republic, the abbreviation was East Germany, was a Central European country was 108,333 km ². There were 16.6 million inhabitants, of which 76% lived in cities. The capital was Berlin (East). Throughout the Republic was composed of the states: Mecklenburg, Brandenburg, Saxony-Anhalt, Saxony and Thuringia. In 1944 it was agreed that after the war, the imperial capital, such as Germany into occupation zones of the Soviet Union, U.S. and Britain should be divided. In the summer of 1945 of the three areas designated by the inclusion of France four times.

For the regulation of matters related to Germany as a whole, the four military commander bildetet "Allied Control Council, which can only be decided unanimously. In each zone of occupation, for its part, had respective commander of the armed forces while he was the supreme authority. On 17.06.1945 met the "Big Three" of the Potsdam Conference to discuss the fate of Germany.

In return, the three Western powers were given to the area previously occupied by occupied by the Soviets in Berlin, which has been divided into four sectors. Thus, the formation of the districts of Prenzlauer Berg, Pankow, Mitte, Weissensee, Friedrichshain, Lichtenberg, Treptow Köpenick and the Soviet sector.

Berlin northwestern British sector should be the American Southwest. Part of the British was planned for the sector in France: the wedding and Reinickendorf. As British sector remained: Tiergarten, Charlottenburg, Spandau and Wilmersdorf. For the American sector were: Zehlendorf, Steglitz, Schöneberg, Kreuzberg, Neukölln and Tempelhof. The division of Berlin in the sectors does not mean, however, the division of the city, which led to the opening for the first time in the Cold War confrontation between East and West. The Allied Control Council was to secure the cooperation of the occupying forces in March 1948, the Soviet representatives to these meetings, but not anymore.

Pompeii, buried city


The city was founded around 600 BC by the plateau formed and later conquered by the Samnites. Under the dictator Lucius Cornelius Sulla, who was 80 BC Roman colony and later became a favorite haunt for wealthy Romans.

At that time there were about 20 000. Pompeii was an important commercial city and port of export of Nola and other inland towns and cities. During an earthquake in AD 63 the city was badly damaged, and buried as an eruption of Vesuvius in 79 cities such as Herculaneum and Stabia. The deposition of volcanic material led to the expansion of the mainland into the sea, so the city now lies at a considerable distance from the sea.

First excavations began in 1748, when the German archaeologist Johann Joachim Winckelmann was involved. In 1912, a road that connects the Strada dell'Abbondanza the amphitheater, located several houses with balconies. This district is known as the Nuovi Scavi (New excavations). Some of the ruins were in the second to the bombings become a world war had severely damaged and restored. Also continuously carried out further excavations in the quarter did not expose the city's past, which is much below the land masses in previous excavations.

One of the surprising aspects of the exhibition of the city was the state of well-preserved ancient remains. Volcanic ash from the eruption of Vesuvius form a protective shield of the city, and led to the preservation of many public buildings, temples, theaters, baths, shops and private homes. We also found the remains of some 2,000 victims of the disaster on the ruins of Pompeii, including several gladiators who had chained to prevent escape or suicide. Some elements of the old city are exhibited in the museum that was built in Pompeii, near the Porta Marina, one of the eight gates of the city. Most residents fled before the eruption of Vesuvius and took their personal belongings as much as possible. After the outbreak was over, dug tunnels around houses and public buildings and took almost everything of value, including marble slabs of houses.

For this reason, only a few objects of value were found at Pompeii. Most discoveries in motion and some wall paintings and floor mosaics were transferred to the National Museum of Naples. In general, buildings and objects in a realistic and comprehensive picture of life in a provincial Italian city of the first century AD The buildings form a transition between the Greek style, the architectural style of the Roman Empire

Some of the ruins were in the second to the bombings become a world war had severely damaged and restored. Also continuously carried out further excavations in the quarter did not expose the city's past, which is much below the land masses in previous excavations.

One of the surprising aspects of the exhibition of the city was the state of well-preserved ancient remains. Volcanic ash from the eruption of Vesuvius form a protective shield of the city, and led to the preservation of many public buildings, temples, theaters, baths, shops and private homes. We also found the remains of some 2,000 victims of the disaster on the ruins of Pompeii, including several gladiators who had chained to prevent escape or suicide. Some elements of the old city are exhibited in the museum that was built in Pompeii, near the Porta Marina, one of the eight gates of the city. Most residents fled before the eruption of Vesuvius and took their personal belongings as much as possible. After the outbreak was over, dug tunnels around houses and public buildings and took almost everything of value, including marble slabs of houses.

For this reason, only a few objects of value were found at Pompeii. Most discoveries in motion and some wall paintings and floor mosaics were transferred to the National Museum of Naples. In general, buildings and objects in a realistic and comprehensive picture of life in a provincial Italian city of the first century AD The buildings form a transition between the Greek style, the architectural style of the Roman Empire
