There was also a great deal of conflict within the town of Salem, Massachusetts. Salem was a community in turmoil in 1692. Bad weather reduced harvests. An epidemic of small pox had swept through the town. Indians renewed attacks on the frontier settlements. The townspeople feared that another conflict like the recent King Phillip's War was about to engulf them. Also, there was great political uncertainty, since the King of England had revoked the colony's charter in 1684. The colonists had been without a sanctioned government since they had forced, though without bloodshed, ejected the King's chosen replacement in 1689. On an ill-fated day in 1692, a harmless childhood game set in motion a chain of events that would forever make Salem, Massachusetts, infamous in American history.
The Rise of the Nazi Ss
The Schutzstaffel or SS was the primary organization responsible for carrying out exterminations for the Nazi hierarchy. It was a key instrument of terror used by the Nazis and came to represent organized brutality within the Third Reich. The power structure of the SS, however, was established prior to the Second World War. The SS, with Heinrich Himmler as its leader, was a dominant organization within Nazi Germany by 1936. There are many questions that surface in regard to the size and influence of the SS in 1934. How did Himmler and the SS emerge as the dominant force within the Third Reich? How was the SS able to develop into a central organization within the Nazi state? The key to answering these questions lies in the background and development of Himmler and the SS.
The Fall of the Kingdom of Northumbria
The Battle of Dunnichen is significant since it marked the turning point in the history of the Picts and marked their independence from the Kingdom of Northumbria. Not only is this possibly the best documented event in the history of the Picts, but it also allowed them to overthrow the Northumbrian rule and the dark shadow it cast over all northern peoples. Without the leadership of King Bridei and his courageous followers, Scotland as we know it may not have existed. The battle also helped to define the Scottish/English border that remains today, a border that could have been pushed further north by the Northumbrians if they had not been stopped.

The Horrible Void Between the Trenches
Armies are virtually never ready to fight major wars. Warfare continues to change over time, which means no two wars are exactly alike. Armys leaders struggle to anticipate the next war, yet it is unrealistic to predict with perfection. The advent of new technology and tactics, unexpected adversaries, the vast size and complexity of military organizations, undetectable capabilities, and unforeseen goals signify gaps will exist between the war an army expects to fight and the war it must fight. Yet, throughout history there has been no army on Earth that has been accused of total unpreparedness than those that went to war in Europe in August of 1914. There is no conflict that more vividly conjures up the image of wasteful military incompetence than the First World War, in which a wholesale chain-of-command on both sides utterly failed to foresee the scale, duration and character of a war transformed by modern weaponry and mass mobilization. The millions cut down among the artillery barrages, machine gun fire and gas clouds have become the quintessential symbol of military unpreparedness and the inability to adapt.
Scapegoat
In scapegoating one thing is clear. The individual, group, or object that is deemed the scapegoat had been perceived as the cause of the troubling circumstances and has become the target of aggression.Scapegoating is the quintessential example of a ritual practice that magically shapes the natural world The scapegoat's sacrifice enables the group to live another day and indelibility makes the survivors a tighter-knit group.

Road to War: the Quest for a New World Order
Every event has a beginning, middle, and end. The Road to War begins with the Treaty of Versailles. It is here where the seeds of instability in Europe are sown. While the 1930s bore witness to the rise of Adolf Hitler and the beginning of World War II, the 1920s were a unique and influential decade during which peace; order and stability were contested and constructed. World War I irrevocably altered the map of Europe and adversely affected each nation involved. The defeat of Germany left Europe in a state of chaos and the Allies, Britain and France, in the position of designing a lasting peace settlement. While the peacemakers were united in their desire to create a lasting peace, distrust and mutual suspicion began to take shape as they gathered in Versailles to decide the fate of Europe.
