Upeka+K

Peace is something that all countries want, but only a few get. With the Neutrality Proclamation that George Washington established before he left the White House, he created an aura of peace for America and the years forward. Sometimes though, there are wars that ravage our country and the peace is gone. The war in Iraq is in one of these wars. It destroys the little bit of peace that we could have, while creating more controversy for the country. There was an era in society, known as the 60's, which was all about peace and love, an era that everyone is trying to bring about again. Peace is something that is hard to come by, but when it does come around, it will be one of great importance.

Through Death, society sees the different rituals each religion has for their men. The Egyptians would mummify the body, Buddhists would cremate the corpse, and Catholics would bury the dead. The Iroquois each had their own ways of burying their loved ones and of what to say when their loved ones died. Each religious group in society aims to distinguish themselves in their own ways and cement their ways in society. Currently, there are customs for each person that is of importance to a specific group. For a Military Veteran, a flag is draped over the coffin, and a cannon is fired to show respect and trust. For each individual in the army, there are different ways to honor them in their death; much like the Iroquois and how they would honor each person in their lives.

Women are treated as people now, as opposed to the era of men being superior. African- Americans were slaves before and after the American Constitution was established; but as time went on, the American people came to realize their ways and vowed to stop it. Women nowadays, with regard to the 19th Amendment, are given much more rights in the workplace and in other areas of the country. There are given more rights and more respect from the people of America. The Constitution paved the way for many genders and races to respect each other. People are not treated as lesser human beings, nor are they treated as a superior. They are all one and the same.

In the American Constitution, there is a guideline for the organization of the Government. If we did not have organization in any community, there would be chaos amid all places. In the past, there were a semblance of rules in the country, and because of this there was little order. People did not put their trust into another, nor did they want to create a better sense of order because they liked the confusion they lived in. Rules and Order are what people in modern society follow, and because of this, we live in an almost peaceful society. There are few who feel the need for no rules, and tend to break them, but if we did not have them [rules], we would be confused and cause mayhem everywhere!
