By the end of World War II, Hitler had killed over 11 million people. He had violated rules that his nation had previously agreed to, and had captured every spot of territory that he could from other nations. He was aggressive, willing to do anything to succeed in his plan for literal world domination. These and other reasons are why I believe that Hitler’s expansion would have inevitably led to war, whether or not other powers had interfered.

These people could essentially do what they want because they were higher than the law. However, rule of law gave the lower-class citizens a chance because everyone was under the same rules. Upon examining Aristotle’s writings, Great Britain’s democratic developments, and the French Revolution, you can further see how important the rule of law is.

Tidal/Wave Energy Caused by the pull of the moon on ocean surface ? renewable Places with strong currents like Australia are hot spots for these 3 main ways to harvest tidal energy: 1) Tidal Barrages, offshore turbines, water power devices Tidal Barges ? a huge dam is built across a flowing body of water. Tide turns a turbine to gather energy. Offshore turbines ? Like underwater windmills. Current spins and they are anchored to the bottom. More environmentally friendly Water Power devices.
