Harry Potter Morning Light

The thirteen independent North American states in the early days were actually a maritime country. The vast majority of people gathered on the east side of the Appalachian Mountains. The environment of the North American Great Plains on the west side of the mountains was actually not suitable for Europeans.

It is a typical temperate grassland, suitable for the development of agriculture and animal husbandry, but not suitable for farming. Natives were not even nomadic, but relied on hunting bison, no part of the animal wasted, the meat was eaten, the hide was made into tents, robes, etc. Since Europe brought horses, the natives of the plains and rocky mountains The culture has changed dramatically, and it has made hunting much easier.

There are also wild horses in North America. They may be close relatives of Mongolian horses. They came to the American continent along the Bering Strait during the Ice Age and then bred their offspring. But they were never domesticated, and early Aboriginal peoples hunted horses alongside bison, leading to a gradual decline in populations. When domesticated livestock is needed to develop advanced agricultural civilization, it cannot develop because of the lack of horses.

Horses increased conflict between tribes, as warriors were able to span distances previously unimaginable on foot. Before the appearance of Europeans, tribes had been killing each other for hunting grounds or competing for other resources for a long time.

Fathers hope to train their sons to be brave fighters, and they start training very early. In order to exercise, boys have to run and swim long-distance at the age of five or six, and are often deprived of food and water. At the age of 7 or 10, they will get their first bow and arrow in their lives. At the age of 14 or 15, their riding skills will become very superb, as if they were born masters of riding, even surpassing the Europeans who brought horses to America. .

American cities have not had their walls taken down, because they have never been built, and although some thoughtful people will cut down trees and build wooden walls, it is far less effective than well-designed fortifications.

Because of this, the commonality of most cities in the United States is "new" and constantly updated, rather than the "Eternal City" Rome, which retains many historical sites like the ruins of the Colosseum. Eternity rarely defines the United States. Cities, people plan cities, and let them spread out like a chessboard on the Great Plains, requiring horses, cars and other means of transportation to travel.

There are some ancient old cities, their original scale can be seen from the preserved city walls, and even in some places, even if the city walls have been demolished, the traces left by the city walls are still faintly visible.

In many books, political treatises, and histories, anyone who calls a monarch a tyrant justifies regicide.

They don't say that regicide is legal, but killing tyrants is legal, so they list the crimes of "tyrants". On the contrary, killing Mingjun and Renjun, the crimes of regicides are listed, so people have a reasonable reason to attack him.

Ceremony is an effective means of legitimacy. If newlyweds only register at the city hall and do not invite relatives and friends to gather together to witness the union of the newlyweds on the lawn, then even if their marriage is legal, it is still less order something.

The ceremony provides a bond for the participants, with a crowd of strangers huddling together and grabbing the bouquet thrown by the bride, as if to get some mana from it, and the next to marry is the one who catches it.

The Indians will use colors to draw patterns on their bodies and horses for protection. This "magic power" makes them believe that they will survive, so when the signal to charge sounds, they will send out shocking waves like a storm. The howling sound of fear.

This kind of charge almost always roars past, and they would rather set up an ambush, or lure the enemy deep. Many people were hunters before they were fighters.

The "Indians" living in the plains, not only the most powerful Sioux, but also other tribes, have a custom different from other places, which is to dismember the corpse of the enemy to prevent the soul of the enemy after death from harassing them.

During the Salem Witch Trials, all the judges hoped that the accused witches could use their magic powers, but when supernatural phenomena really happened, they were extremely frightened and eager to eliminate the "witches".

In 1692, when the new Governor of Massachusetts got a new charter from England, the locals could actually "not participate" in the "game" that the obnoxious former Dominion Governor Edmund Andros had in 1689 With a large entourage, defiantly asked "whether the king owns all the lands of New England". The old preacher told him that the land belonged to the people who had bartered it for it with the Indians, and that two generations of settlers had conquered the wasteland at great cost, taming what earlier visitors called the "remote land". How can it be said that the king owns all the land in New England, where the king had no interest in the land of North America before the settlers appeared?

At that time, the "neighbors" of New England residents besides Indians and French were willing to cooperate when Inchs Mather sold them a charter. At least there was an alternative rule to follow.

Unrestrained freedom will not only bring chaos and destruction, but also bring anarchy and a sense of nothingness. All they can do is to consider the scale of concession under this rule.

Since the signing of the "Westphalian Peace Treaty", wars and peace treaties have been aimed at delimiting the boundaries between European countries. At present, the boundaries of France are determined by natural boundaries. If you add the section of Napoleon to Aachen Together, they made a circle around the French border, but he had a trip to the Republic of Batavia on the way, but it was suddenly cancelled.

It was actually her own impromptu intention to visit Rembrandt's tomb, but a "big misunderstanding" occurred. Commissioners from several countries asked her why Bonaparte didn't go to the Republic of Batavia on the way. up.

She is not unaware that there is a debate on whether or not polygamy is going on "front". Anyway, the publicity of mistresses is considered polygamy in the de facto sense, and there is only one "legal" seal. She can now sit Here is also the reason.

Pain can make people sober. They can pass that law at will. Anyway, because of the abolition of the "Edict of Nantes", a large number of Protestants ran to England. French women who do not want to accept this law can also go to England.

Those who can’t escape without money can think of other ways, but even if there are many beautiful buildings built on the ground, who will think that France is a romantic country in the future?

Of course, if someone insists on thinking this way, no one can stop him. Everyone has their own freedom.

Now she remembered what the soldiers who opposed him in the army said, "Not everything is resolved by interests and official functions."

When the Sovereign lives up to expectations, that is, when he is loved by the people, and the soldier loves his character and his cause, he is in no danger.

Caesar resented Cato's death, and Cato did not want to live in a world ruled by Caesar.

It's just that she couldn't die as tragically as little Cato. As for the corpse after death, St. Catherine was almost tortured by the wheel because she refused the lord's courtship.

I don't know what she thought at the time, but she actually named the Knights such a name.

She was so upset that she fanned herself, although she was not hot at all, and even a little cold.
