During class today we watched the video and a big part of it was on the Chinese bought Mal-Mart because the workers in china get paid less than people in the U.S.  In the U.S, we have a minimum wage and in China they don't so they could work for one dollar a day when people in the U.S get pain around eight dollar minimum.  People in china don't care how much they get paid, they only care about getting paid something.  You were saying that your money is kinda voting where you get your food from.  So if you like having less jobs in the U.S , shop at Mal-Mart.

On his search for gold and other riches, Cortés decided to invade and conquer the Aztec empire killing thousands of people. They were subjects to Spain.

Saudi Arabia

Saudi Arabia has never been colonized, so the independence day is actually the day when the kingdom was created, which celebrated in 23 of September. Apart from a small number of urban trading settlements, such as Mecca and Medina, located in the Hejaz in the west of the Arabian Peninsula, most of what was to become Saudi Arabia was populated by nomadic tribal societies in the inhospitable desert. They have been subjects of another country. A communist party was formed in 1975

Settlement by anatomically modern humans of what was to become the United Kingdom occurred in waves beginning by about 30,000 years ago. By the end of the region's prehistoric period, the population is thought to have belonged, in the main, to a culture termed Insular Celtic, comprising Brythonic Britain and Gaelic Ireland.

Venezuela- It is found in South America. Scientist believe that the earliest sign of Humans in Venezuela was 15,000 years ago. Than in 1522 Spain started to colonize the area. It became part of the Viceroyalty of New Granada.After a series of unsuccessful uprisings, Venezuela was under the leadership of Francisco de Miranda, a Venezuelan soldier who had fought in the American Revolution and the French Revolution declared independence on 5 July 1811. This began the Venezuelan War of Independence. Though right after they got their independence their 1st and 2nd attempts for a government failed. It wasn't until a new General came to the fight, that they finally one their Independence. They were than part of Gran Colombia until that fell, and they formed their own country just after.
