Film Lesson: "Mountains of the Moon"

In the movie the europeans had faced many obstacles in finding the main source in the nile river, which were moskitos that carried malaria, african tribes that tortured and killed people, and lions.
It is strange to most why the source of the Nile River is named after a british queen. The reason why I think this river was named Lake victoria was because one of the two men from europe just came up with the name.
One technological advantage the europeans had over the africans was their weaponry. The africans had spears and the europeans had guns. Obviously guns are more sufficient than guns.

Meji Restoration of Japan

Matthew Perry arrived to the coasts of Japan to negociate upon having the Japanese sign a trade treaty with the United States but the Japanese didnt want to, because they were so used to being isolated from the rest of the world. Then Commodore Matthew Perry sort of "bullied" the Japanese by showing off his boat that moved without sails. The Japanese were impressed because of course, the ships that the americans had were more modern than the Japanese. Japan had no choice but to grant what the United States had wished.
The Emporer of Japan who was very young, has lead Japan into modernization. He sent two people to the US and Europe to study their ways. After a long period of time Japan has started to improve. Japan became more modern, with a new government, and idustrialization just like Europe and United States.
Japan is an Archipalego because it is one country that has many groups of seprate islands.

Nationalism

Nationalism is a form of expressing one's self toward their country. My definition of nationalism is a positive representation upon a country. To display nationalism, some people wave their flags, paint their country's flags on their faces, wear their country's flags, go to parades that are celebrating for their country, and even decorate their houses with their country's flags.To display my nationalism for the Dominican Republic, I go to the Dominican Parade every August.
