The article gives a thorough definition and explanation of what church and state is and the relationships of the people involved. The application of these definitions to history, involving specific countries, is then executed.

The main points in this article are the settlements, population sources, the relationships with Native Americans, government, religion, and economy and population growth for the English, French and Spanish Colonies. The purpose of this article is to show the similarities and differences between the English, French and Spanish Colonists during the founding of the New World. There are many topics covered in this article, however the most important topic is the colonists and how they are different even though they came from the same continent: Europe. This articles is a comparison of the three colonists groups and which group would be the best suited to colonize the New World. This is a very useful source to use as notes or to help you debate a certain side, because it shows you the group's strong points as well as the drawbacks. Other sources that I have used only talk about on group of colonists and you really have to dig for answers, whereas this site is organized in a chart and all the information is right in front of you. This was very useful for my U.S. History class because this website showed the different groups of European colonists and their strengths and weaknesses.

I used this website recently when working on a climate change project for Italy. Most of my time spent researching was at this site because it is very organized and has so much information. There are twenty subtopics that range from what is climate change to the impacts of climate change in Italy. The purpose of this website, even though it is called Climate Change in Italy is to speak to people throughout the world and inform them on the consequences of too much CO2. This site was very useful for me because there was a lot of information in each of the categories. The only drawback with this website is that it goes really in-depth, so if you want to know a specific thing about Italy Climate Change then you may want to choose a new source. The information is definitely reliable seeing as I have compared it to other sources and I would recommend this site to people who want to know about climate change in Italy or Europe in general. I used this source for a project and it was very useful, so I would suggest people who want to use it as well to use it specifically for research. This website helped me look at climate change on a smaller scale: Italy (it really zoned in on the specific climates in Italy).

This article is about a tragic mine fire in Turkey that killed dozens of miners and left many trapped deep underground. In response to this tragedy, Turkey is doing as much as possible to stop unsafe and unregulated mining operations. According to the article, unregulated mines account for 85% of the mines in Turkey, so its going to take some time for them to follow through with regulations. This is a reliable article as it is from the CNN website. This article helped me realize how dangerous it is to work in the mining industry in countries that lack safety regulations.

In this article Russian protesters force police out of a government building in the Ukraine and don't even budge when a full scale anti-terrorist assault is threatened. It was useful to read because it informed me about this international event in the Ukraine making me a better global citizen. I am now more aware of the unrest in the Ukraine and resilience of the Russian protesters.
