Conflict (narrative)
`` Man against man '' conflict involves stories where characters are against each other . This is an external conflict . The conflict may be direct opposition , as in a gunfight or a robbery , or it may be a more subtle conflict between the desires of two or more characters , as in a romance or a family epic . This type of conflict is very common in traditional literature , fairy tales and myths . One example of the `` man against man '' conflict is the relationship struggles between the protagonist and the antagonist stepfather in This Boy 's Life . Other examples include Dorothy 's struggles with the Wicked Witch of the West in The Wonderful Wizard of Oz and Tom Sawyer 's confrontation with Injun Joe in The Adventures of Tom Sawyer .

Minstrel show
With the advent of the American Civil War , minstrels remained mostly neutral and satirized both sides . However , as the war reached Northern soil , troupes turned their loyalties to the Union . Sad songs and sketches came to dominate in reflection of the mood of a bereaved nation . Troupes performed skits about dying soldiers and their weeping widows , and about mourning white mothers . `` When this cruel war is over '' became the hit of the period , selling over a million copies of sheet music . To balance the somber mood , minstrels put on patriotic numbers like `` The Star Spangled Banner '' , accompanied by depictions of scenes from American history that lionized figures like George Washington and Andrew Jackson . Social commentary grew increasingly important to the show . Performers criticized Northern society and those they felt responsible for the breakup of the country , who opposed reunification , or who profited from a nation at war . Emancipation was either opposed through happy plantation material or mildy supported with pieces that depicted slavery in a negative light . Eventually , direct criticism of the South became more biting .

Battle of Badr
Badr is also the subject of Sura 8 : Al - Anfal , which details military conduct and operations . `` Al - Anfal '' means `` the spoils '' and is a reference to the post-battle discussion in the Muslim army over how to divide up the plunder from the Quraishi army . Though the Sura does not name Badr , it describes the battle , and several of the verses are commonly thought to have been from or shortly after the battle .

Vietnam War
The Vietnam War called into question the U.S. Army doctrine . Marine Corps General Victor H. Krulak heavily criticised Westmoreland 's attrition strategy , calling it `` wasteful of American lives ... with small likelihood of a successful outcome . '' In addition , doubts surfaced about the ability of the military to train foreign forces . Furthermore , throughout the war there was found to be considerable flaws and dishonesty by officers and commanders due to promotions being tied to the body count system touted by Westmoreland and McNamara .

History of the Philippines (1898–1946)
This battle marked the end of Filipino - American collaboration , as the American action of preventing Filipino forces from entering the captured city of Manila was deeply resented by the Filipinos . This later led to the Philippine -- American War , which would prove to be more deadly and costly than the Spanish -- American War .

World War I
Macro - and micro-economic consequences devolved from the war . Families were altered by the departure of many men . With the death or absence of the primary wage earner , women were forced into the workforce in unprecedented numbers . At the same time , industry needed to replace the lost labourers sent to war . This aided the struggle for voting rights for women .

Siege of Yorktown
The fire on Yorktown from the allies was heavier than ever as new artillery pieces joined the line . Cornwallis talked with his officers that day and they agreed that their situation was hopeless .
Jay Treaty
The Treaty of Amity , Commerce , and Navigation , Between His Britannic Majesty and the United States of America , commonly known as the Jay Treaty , and also as Jay 's Treaty , was a 1795 treaty between the United States and Great Britain that averted war , resolved issues remaining since the Treaty of Paris of 1783 ( which ended the American Revolutionary War ) , and facilitated ten years of peaceful trade between the United States and Britain in the midst of the French Revolutionary Wars , which began in 1792 . The Treaty was designed by Alexander Hamilton and supported by President George Washington . It angered France and bitterly divided Americans . It led to the formation of two opposing parties in every state , the pro-Treaty Federalists and the anti-Treaty Democratic Republicans .
History of Newfoundland and Labrador
Fears of a permanent American presence in Newfoundland caused the Canadian government to attempt to persuade the island to join the Canadian Confederation . This was not primarily due to economic reasons . In the 1940s Newfoundland was Canada 's eighth - largest trading partner . The island primarily traded with Britain and the United States , especially the `` Boston states '' of New England . Canada saw some value in Newfoundland 's fisheries , raw materials , Labrador 's hydroelectric potential , and 300,000 people of English and Irish descent , and expected that its location would remain important to trans - Atlantic aviation .
Jay Treaty
At the national level American politics was divided between the factions of Jefferson and Madison , which favored the French , and the Federalists led by Hamilton , who saw Britain as a natural ally and thus sought to normalize relations with Britain , especially in the area of trade . Washington sided with Hamilton . Hamilton devised a framework for negotiations , and President George Washington sent Chief Justice of the Supreme Court John Jay to London to negotiate a comprehensive treaty .
Causes of the Great Depression
The Smoot - Hawley Tariff Act was instituted by Senator Reed Smoot and Representative Willis C. Hawley , and signed into law by President Hoover , to raise taxes on American imports by about 20 percent during June 1930 . This tax , which added to already shrinking income and overproduction in the U.S. , only benefitted Americans in having to spend less on foreign goods . In contrast , European trading nations frowned upon this tax increase , particularly since the `` United States was an international creditor and exports to the U.S. market were already declining '' . In response to the Smoot - Hawley Tariff Act , some of America 's primary producers and largest trading partner , Canada , chose to seek retribution by increasing the financial value of imported goods favoured by the Americans .
