An Alliance with the Huron Empire

1. What is an alliance? What does this word mean?Great traders themselves, the Hurons navigated the rivers of Central Canada and were very prosperous. They would become the leading source of furs for the French.
Alliance means an agreement between countries,political parties,etc.To work together in order to achieve sth that they all want.That's a group of people,polotical parties,etc.

2. Why would Champlain want to form an alliance with the Hurons?

Because all three nations had strategic interests to cooperate with the French. The Hurons, today commonly known as Wyandot, were associated with the French from the start of colonisation. The French, who viewed them as the most advances nation, in terms of trade and technology,chose to associate with them in order to gain better profits from the North American colonies. In turn, the Wyandot saw an opportunity to cooperate with a power that would undermine their most powerful foes -the Iroquois.I think Champlain want to form an alliance with the Hurons because there are must have some advantages that Hurons can help French.Champlain knew the Huron not only had better fur than the Algonkin and Iroquois, but access through trade with other tribesto areas of even higher quality,so if he can have an alliance with them he can get some helps to do many works.

Exploration is Important For Countries

_____Do you know the exploration? Exploration are the act of searching or traveling a terrain for the purpose of discovery, for example of unknown people, including space, for oil, gas, coal, ores, caves, water or information. Exploration did a huge job for countries; they are the heroes of a country when they finish a plan to explore. The space exploration in China is famous that all the people knew. Have you heard Yang Liwei? That's a famous person in China; he help China finish a new space exploration. Explorations are famous for a country that did a huge job for their countries. Explorations can get a lot of specific presents for their countries just like they can enlarge resources for the country, expand areas for the country and they can study some technology to help a country be stronger.
____Explorations can enlarge resources for the country. They can get a lot of resources when they finish a travel. For example, oil and gas resources are abundant in China. Although the exploration extent of the main petroliferous basins is high after long time exploration the amount of remained oil and gas resources is still large and it has the resources base for further development. After oil and gas exploration in 10 of years, the preservation conditions of remained oil resources become worse” and the proportion of low-quality resources was augmented, the remained oil and gas resources in subtle oil and gas reservoirs is enlarged”, rand oil and gas exploration is getting more difficult. Oil and gas exploration field in China will be broad in the future, not only has 4 big realistic exploration fields, include the fine exploration in mature basin, the litho-stratigraphic reservoirs, the foreyard and the lower-medium combination of superimposed basin, but also has some new exploration fields like Qinghai and Tibet, the south of the South China Sea, the marine carbonate rocks and "low quality” resources.
____Explorations can expand area for the country. They can get more energy then give it to their countries. I founded an example from the internet. The United States Geological Service estimates that the reserves in the area could be as much as 9.3 billion barrels of oil, although Cuban geologists are more optimistic and calculate reserves of 20 billion barrels, according to Culet’s exploration director, Rafael Torero. Future. Even so, the future of Cuban oil, especially maritime oil, is far from being clearly defined. The island can boast of having successfully begun the first "horizontal" drilling in its history, in northern waters. One of the most remarkable aspects of the operation is that it was carried out by Cuban workers trained in Canada. Right now, no assistance is being provided by foreign companies; the island's authorities recently cancelled the oil exploration contract they had signed with Canadian company Peterman, linked to the Sherri consortium.
____Explorations can study more technology to help a country be stronger. They can study some languages from other countries such as people can go to Canada study French. People who did exploration people are all admire him.
____Explorations did a huge job for their countries just like they can enlarge resources for the country, expand area for the country, and study some technology from other countries to help a country be stronger. Explorations are the heroes in people's heart. When they did an exploration, they can't see their children. When their houses have something trouble, they can't give up. That’s the exploration. They are the true hero. They are important for countries, if without them, maybe the country will not complete.

Green Knight is one of the antagonists in "Sir Gawain and Green Knight" that who shows his bravery when he faced to the king and his knight, he wasn't afraid and showed his bravery. For example,"Which of you is King Author?"When he came into the palace, he didn't scare of it, although he said that he knew the king's knights are the bravest in the world.He wanted to know which of them is brave enough to do what he asked, he wanted a knight to take the axe and strike him with it.When he told these sentences and declared he wants to strike.In brief with the bravest knight, it also can make people know the bravery of the Green Knight. To put it differently, he was the resolution and the courage to speak with them.Thus, he is courageous because when he met all of the knights, he didn't afraid and challenge himself to strike with them.In addition,he is brave even when he made the promise with Gawain,he is in the face of the strike.In essence,he didn't the promise with Gawain illustrate with,"You must promise that after you strike me tonight, you will come to my castle a year for now.Then,I will need the axe and I will strike you with it"Subsquently,this part of the story shows the Green Knight's courage and resolution.For this purpose,Green Knight is a confidence person that he will pass the strike and win.Subsequently he can make the promise with Gawain,so he is a brave knight.
In this story"The Sniper",the Republican is a brave character who is not afraid of facing death by the setting and his injury.The Republican is one of the protagonists who shows his bravery when he is in twilight faded into night.For instance,"Dublin lay enveloped in darkness for the dim light of the moon that shone through fleey clouds casting a pace night as of approaching down over the streets and the dark waters of liffey.That's a disgusting setting,most people would be afraid of that,but he didn't do that,so it can show his bravery.Thereupon,he is courageous because in a wars setting.He wasn't afraid of it and keep on going.In addition,he is brave when his forearm was dead,he didn't cry even though to trick injured right forearm.The blood was oozing through the sleeve of his coat.These was no pain-just a deadened sensation,as if the arm had been cut off.From this scene,the readers will know he is a brave person who has injured.At that time,most of people will go out away and said that I was failed,but he didn't give up and keep his going,that makes people admire him.All in all,he is courageous because when his forearm was injured,he didn't give up.From this story,the Republican is a brave character is not afraid of facing death by twilight faded into night and his forearm was dead.It reminds people think about that something people saw in the movie,just like the same scene,but that character is a loser,he said that he is fail.The same scene,but only the characters are different,it shows people one is a brave person,the other isn't a brave person.All of the readers will like the Republican because he faced to face the war.
All of these two storys',the "Sir Gawain and Green Knight" and "The Sniper",it has two settings and shows people two kinds of brave.They have the different characters but it can makes people admire them.These two storys' not only told us their brave but also wanted us study from them.In the world,it has so many brave people,they helped people,they protected the world,they are the heroes in my heart.To be a brave person and make the world wonderful.

John Cabot

Introduction:John Cabot was an Italian-born English explorer and navigator. He was married to a Venetian wife whose name was Mattea.In May the following year, Cabot left Bristol on his ship the Matthew and sailed west with the intention of finding China or Japan. Instead, he discovered the “New Founde Landes” which we now know of course as Newfoundland, Canada. After anchoring his ship off the coast of this new land, he rowed ashore and planted a cross, the banners of King Henry VII of England, the Pope and of St Mark, the patron saint of Venice. John Cabot and his fleet did not return from the second expedition. Nothing is known of what happened to him. He may have perished in a storm, or hit an iceberg, or maybe even reached the new continent and died at the hands of Indians, or more likely, the Spanish.
