Somewhere around 1300 a.D., the Pueblo people have abandoned their territory and moved to the south-west.
Various unfortunate incidents had made the Pueblo community abandon its lands, and along with them, most of its culture. However, the Pueblo cultural identity had not been lost through time and Pueblo people that pay great attention to their cultural values are still present today in the U.S.
The South American continent has also had several empires which flourished previous to the time that the early colonists arrived. The Empire had its capital in the great city of Cusco, and, all of the political and military decisions were taken in the respective city. To this day, the city had remained famous, with numerous people visiting it every year because it has become a main tourist attraction.
The Incas began as a tribe, with their leader, Manco Capac, establishing the city of Cusco. The Incas living in the fourteenth century in the Kingdom of Cusco were led by Inca Roca, the sixth Sapa Inca. Inca Roca's reign started around 1350 a.D. And he was the first to belong to the upper dynasty. The empire slowly but surely spread across South-America, and, in its height, it covered a large portion of western South-America. The methods that the Incas used to expand their borders were sometimes aggressive, as they conquered other tribes. However, the Incas were also accustomed to more peaceful methods of expansion, such as assimilation.
Most of the Inca culture had disappeared as an effect of smallpox brought by the Spanish and because the Spanish were very brutal towards the Incas.

Argentina was the first country that experienced after the Second World War the rising of a regime that was claiming to be on the side of the working classes. It was led by Juan Peron. He gradually distanced himself from any democratic means of governing and was eventually overthrown by a coup d'etat, in 1955. From exile, Peron continued to influence the political scene in his country of origin. The
Rather than continue the process that began in the first two books, in which the Rosicrucian Order first announced themselves, gave their history, and then responded to certain criticisms while making their position within Christian theology clearer, the Chymical Wedding can almost be seen as the first instance of literature written within the Rosicrucian tradition, rather than as part of its manifesto-like founding documents, because it does not seek to
Economics in Ancient Civilization It is said that "Rome was not built in a day." Indeed, the Roman Empire was the last of a series of civilizations to emerge in the Mediterranean by the First Millennium, B.C.

Syrian Empire Syria has often been called the Cradle of Civilization and the Gateway to History (History pp). Archaeological finds proves that Syria was inhabited deep into the Stone Age (Syrian pp). The remains of Ebla discovered a few years ago on Tel Mardikh, south of Aleppo, confirm the fact that a prosperous Kingdom existed in the second half of the third millennium B.C. (Syria pp). The finds at Tel Hariri
Cultural Perceptions of Time in Africa Time is a foundational factor in every culture. The perception of time is different for most cultures and the determining factor to those differences is often based on the means of production. "Most cultures have some concept of time, although the way they deal with time may differ fundamentally." (Kokole 1994, 35) Tracing the perception of the concept of time in Africa can be seen
