He ordered the building of new walls to connect the remaining fortifications along the empire's northern frontier. ● The great wall was built when seven powerful states appeared at the same time, to defend themselves. At that time the wall was 3107 miles and each part of wall belonged to different part of the states.

Henry Tudor started with a great act of piety: The building of a beautiful fan roofed chapel in Westminster Abbey. It was completed by his son. His son Henry the VIII made the crown the spiritual head of nation. A huge amount of property which had previously been owned by Roman Catholic Church was sold or given away and the houses stood empty. The Elizabethan period is often considered to be the golden age. Elizabeth was succeeded by her closest relative James VI of Scotland. The unhappy Stuart Dynasty witnessed the Civil war and the execution of Charles I. In 1660 the throne was taken by Charles II. Unfortunately in 1665 the great Plague was responsible for the deaths of 100,000 Londoners and in 1666 The Great Fire destroyed amost 400 acres. The fire raged for three days and burned down many churches, St. Paul's Cathedral and so on. The tower of London had a lucky escape.

Beli (671693), with another period of consolidation in the reign of engus mac Fergusa (732761). The Kingdom of the Picts as it was in the early 8th century, when Bede was writing, was largely the same as the kingdom of the Scots in the reign of Alexander (11071124). However, by the tenth century, the Pictish kingdom was dominated by what we can recognise as Gaelic culture, and had developed an Irish conquest myth around the ancestor of the contemporary royal dynasty, Cined mac Ailpn (Kenneth MacAlpin). From a base of territory in eastern Scotland north of the River Forth and south of the River Oykel, the kingdom acquired control of the lands lying to the north and south. By the 12th century, the kings of Alba had added to their territories the Anglic-speaking land in the south-east and attained overlordship of Gaelic-speaking Galloway and Norse-speaking Caithness; by the end of the 13th century, the kingdom had assumed approximately its modern borders
This is the period when monarchies based on nationality were estabilished. The Renaessance started in Italy In the 14th century. Then it spread all over Europe, reached England in 16th century. The struggle for power culminated in a war called The War of Roses. It was a civil war between two dynasties, families. They had different emblems on one side the Yorks (white rose) other Lancasters (red). They couldn't decide who gets the throne. War ended 1485. A new dynasty came to throne, Tudor, the first king in this dynasty was Henry Vll. When he came to throne a period of stability followed because he built a nation based state. He was good at diplomacy.He could avoid quarrels and wars with neigbouring countries. France, Spain - greatest enemies.So he could save much money and thus laid a good economic basis for his state. Besides that he built a merchant fleet (kaubalaevastik) England begun to dominate in international trade.

Colours The traditional colors of Mardi Gras are purple, green, and gold. These colors are said to have been chosen by Grand Duke Alexis Romanoff Alexandrovitch. For the Grand Duke, the decision was simple, and true to his noble roots, he selected the official colors of the House of Romanov(the second and last imperial dynasty of Russia). Later the colours got their meanings: purple- justice, green-faith, gold-power. Mardi Gras Icons · The Faces of Comedy and Drama · Feathered Masks · Fleur de Lis · Laissez Les Bons Temps Rouler!

v. Wetter-Rosenthal). Toome Hill ´s larger bridge is the yellow and white, classical style. The name is thought to come from a linguistic twist - part of the hill is landscaped likean English garden and the words "English"(inglise) and Angel(ingel) are nearly the same in Estonian. Local tradition says that when crossing it, you should hold your breath and make a wish! The Devil's Bridge was built in 1913 in honour of the 300th jubilee of tsarist Russia's Romanov Dynasty, which is memorialized on the bridge by the dates 1613-1913. The bridge is dedicated to Emperor Alexander I, who signed the founding treaty for the tsarist university - the second official opening of Tartu University, and whose embossed relief decorates the bridge side facing Vallikraavi Street. Like the Angels´s bridge, its name might also come from a a play of words - it was built under the supervision Werner Maximillian Friedrich Zoege von Manteuffel,
Most accepted construction theories are based on the idea that it was built by moving huge stones from a quarry and dragging and lifting them into place. There are three known chambers inside the Great Pyramid. The lowest chamber is cut into the bedrock upon which the pyramid was built and was unfinished. The so-called Queen's Chamber and King's Chamber are higher up within the pyramid structure. Building of the Great pyramid of Giza It is believed the pyramid was built as a tomb for Fourth dynasty Egyptian pharaoh Khufu around 2540 BC. It is thought that, at construction, the Great Pyramid was originally 146.59 metres tall but with erosion, its current height is 138.74 metres. The total mass of the pyramid is about 5.9 million tonnes. Based on these estimates, building this in 20 years would involve installing about 800 tonnes of stone every day. The pyramid remained the tallest man-made structure in the world for over 3,800 years Pyramid complex
nobles was even more. He gave them lands, but scattered them all over England so that he would not have the same faith as French Monarch. He also demanded that each freeman in England would utter the oath of loyalty to him(not to the feudals as they used to). · Henry II and the Angevin Empire- Henry II was the King of Angevin Empire. The term Angevin Empire is a modern term describing the collection of states once ruled by the Angevin Plantagenet dynasty, which was an empire, that included one-third of France(he got it from the marriage with Elanor of Aquitaine), England and a part of Ireland. Henry II is known for his legal reforms. He hanged the law by having the state, not private individuals, bring suspects to trial(before that private individuals had to do that and if it turned out that they were wrong they had to pay fines). He also establised grand juries who gathered evidence.

Egyptian papyrus showing the god Osiris and the weighing of the heart. Papyrus, a thick paper-like material made by weaving the stems of the papyrus plant, then pounding the woven sheet with a hammer-like tool, was used for writing in Ancient Egypt, perhaps as early as the First Dynasty, although the first evidence is from the account books of King Neferirkare Kakai of the Fifth Dynasty (about 2400 BC). Papyrus sheets were glued together to form a scroll. Tree bark such as lime (Latin liber, from which also comes library) and other materials were also used. According to Herodotus (History 5:58), the Phoenicians brought writing and papyrus to Greece around the 10th or 9th century BC. The Greek word for papyrus as writing material (biblion) and

Under them, the territory under Muslim rule expanded deeply into Persian and Byzantine territories. When Umar was assassinated in 644, the election of Uthman as successor was met with increasing opposition. In 656, Uthman was also killed, and Ali assumed the position of caliph. After fighting off opposition in the first civil war (the "First Fitna"), Ali was assassinated by Kharijites in 661. Following this, Mu'awiyah, who was governor of Levant, seized power and began the Umayyad dynasty. These disputes over religious and political leadership would give rise to schism in the Muslim community. The majority accepted the legitimacy of the three rulers prior to Ali, and became known as Sunnis. A minority disagreed, and believed that Ali was the only rightful successor; they became known as the Shi'a. After Mu'awiyah's death in 680, conflict over succession broke out again in a civil war known as the "Second Fitna". Afterward, the Umayyad dynasty

In the history of Tibet, it has been an independent country, divided into different countries, and a part of China each for a certain amount of time. Tibet was first unified under King Songtsän Gampo in the seventh century. A government nominally headed by the Dalai Lamas, a line of spiritual leaders, ruled a large portion of the Tibetan region at various times from the 1640s until 1950s. During most of this period, the Tibetan administration was subordinate to the Chinese empire of the Qing Dynasty. The 13th Dalai Lama proclaimed Tibet independent in 1913, but this declaration was not accepted by China. Furthermore, Tibet was not recognized by any country as a de jure independent nation. As a measure of the power that regents must have wielded, it is important to note that only three of the fourteen Dalai Lamas have actually ruled Tibet; regents ruled during 77 percent of the period from 1751 until 1960.The Communist Party of China gained control of central and western Tibet

House of Winsdor. Their influence on modern society, key personalities. People all over the world are obsessed with the British royal family. Most fans know all the royal names and faces, the line of succession to the throne, and even the family's rarely- used last name. But let's start from the beginning. The House of Windsor is the reigning royal house of the United Kingdom and the other Commonwealth realms. The dynasty is of German paternal descent and was originally a branch of the House of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, itself derived from the House of Wettin, which succeeded the House of Hanover to the British monarchy following the death of Queen Victoria, wife of Albert, Prince Consort. The name was changed from Saxe-Coburg and Gotha to the English Windsor (from "Windsor Castle"[1]) in 1917 because of anti-German sentiment in the British Empire during World War I
lasting impression on Britain. They were fierce pagan seafaring warriors who brought with them their own customs and laws. They raided mercilessly coastal towns in Britain and defeated all Anglo- Saxons kingdoms except one Wessex. A treaty was signed between the Danish and Wessex kings. It divided England, with the east declared to be Danish territory. The power was regained after about 200 years and the Anglo-Saxon dynasty lasted until the year 1066. The period of Medieval England (1066-1483) started in 1066 when William of Normandy came defeated the Anglo-Saxon king Harold at the Battle of Hastings. Land was handed to the rich French who came to live in England. The power of these Norman Barons increased and they together with the Church began to challenge the king's absolute power. The king was forced to sign the Magna Carta in 1215 which significantly reduced the king's rights.
could argue against a tax demand. William ordered the survey of England to take place about twenty years after the Battle of Hastings. The whole survey took less than a year to complete and the books can be found in the Public Records Office. The Domesday Book forms a remarkable record of the state of England in the mid-1080's. *The House of Anjou/the Plantagenets/the Angevins (kings, centuries) was a royal house founded by Henry II of England. The First Angevin Dynasty also called the House of Plantagenet, ruled England from the reign of Henry II, in the beginning 12th century, until the House of Tudor came to power when Richard III fell at the Battle of Bosworth Field. Richard I Lionheart had a reputation as a great military leader and warrior. John I (13 th century) is known for sealing Magna Carta, a document limiting his power.

Christianity took root in the region. The Moravians (the ancient lands of Moravia now form 7 the eastern part of the Czech Republic) were ultimately undone by internal conflicts, especially with the Czechs, who finally broke away from the empire. Prague Castle (Prazsk hrad, or just hrad to the Czechs) was built in the 870s by Prince Boivoj as the main seat of the Pemysl dynasty. Vysehrad sometimes served as an alternative in the 10th and 11th centuries. Christianity became the state religion under the rule of the pious Wenceslas (Václav in Czech), duke of Bohemia (r c 925-29), now the chief patron saint of the Czech people. Wenceslas was the 'Good King Wenceslas' of the well-known Christmas carol written in 1853 by English clergyman John Mason Neale. Neale, a scholar of eastern European church
History of Football Forerunners of football The creation of football as we understand it today is geographically confined to British shores, but there is extensive evidence of ancient games with the same basic principles as the modern day incarnation. The first of these was identified as part of Shang Dynasty China in the 5th century BC, the game's objective being to kick a leather ball through a hole in a piece of cloth which between two 30 foot poles. The Tsu'Chu military exercise in 3rd century China was also an interesting elaboration on this theme; the premise once again being to kick a leather ball through a 30-40 centimetre opening. As the Tsu'Chu exercise lacked the central team element of today's football, attention
