Independence and Conflict
Zionism and Jewish Settlement
When Jews began to migrate and settle on Europe they suffered severly from Anti-Semitism, which is discrimination against the Jews and their beliefs. Because of this the Jews decided to create a movement called Zionism which was its purpose was to create a safe place or state in which they could establish their people and live away from all that discrimination.
Zionism functioned as a government for Jews before there was even a state or settlement for them.
It influences the politics of Israel until this present day.
The Zionism movement helped Jews to create an opportunity to have a state, a safe place which all Jews around the world could call home. Some of the Proposed homelands for Jews were Alaska and Uganda, but Jerusalem was the place that favored most of the Jews at that time because of their ancient connections with the place.
Zionism today isn't as much of a powerful and influencing organization as it was before but it is still around on the present days, now recalled and known as the World Zionist Organization which along Israel Government encourages Jews to settle down in Palestinian land.
A Visit to the Zoo
A Visit To The Zoo
The visit to the Zoo "La Aurora" was a really fun activity to do, watching all the animals plus we got the rally activity which was kind of challenging to do, finding the exact animal the sentence was describing. Really liked this activity in my opinion i just wished it was longer lasting since time just flew away.
Species in Danger
Animal species in danger or Animal species endangering are terms used when they are disappearing fast from the face of the Earth or are very sparsely populated around the globe, the next animals im showing are some of the species in danger that I found in the Zoo.
Bengal Tiger
is the most numerous of the tiger subspecies. By 2011, the total population was estimated at fewer than 2,500 individuals with a decreasing trend. None of the Tiger Conservation Landscapes within the Bengal tiger's range is considered large enough to support an effective population size of 250 adult individuals. An example of charismatic megafauna, the Bengal tiger is the most familiar tiger subspecies, as well as the second largest subspecies, after the Siberian tiger.
Ring-Tailed Lemur
Despite reproducing readily in captivity and being the most populous lemur in zoos worldwide, numbering more than 2,000 individuals, the ring-tailed lemur is listed as endangered by the IUCN Red List due to habitat destruction and hunting for bush meat and the exotic pet trade. As of early 2017, the population in the wild is believed to have crashed as low as 2,000 individuals due to habitat loss, poaching and hunting, making them far more critically endangered.Bactrian Camel
is a large, even-toed ungulate native to the steppes of Central Asia. The Bactrian camel has two humps on its back, as does the Wild Bactrian camel (a separate species), but in contrast to the single-humped dromedary came. Its population of two million exists mainly in the domesticated form. Their name comes from the ancient historical region of Bactria. Even though it has a high population in its domesticated form the Wild Bactrian Camel is endangered.

A visit to the Library
A Visit To The Library
I visited the Library located in the University "Del Valle" and learned how to look for books in a library.
The experience of searching the location of the books through the Digital catalog and the Physical catalog was interesting and somewhat fun. I went and looked for the theme i wanted to read and got all the information on what bookshelf to find it on, was a really easy system to learn and finding the book wasnt as hard as i thought it would be.
The library used the US' congress library classification system.
The Books I Read
1.-HAARP: The Ultimate Weapon of Conspiracy
Is about a conspiracy theory surround a group of antennas used by the US Government located in Alaska
2.-The Maya
Is a book about the Mayan language, traditions, buildings and many other themes surrounding the Mayas
