Old Theodore Roosevelt was once a brave soldier, a real cowboy, an unparalleled policeman, and even a judo champion. He was a distant relative of Franklin Roosevelt, who later led the United States out of the Prohibition Depression and World War II. People used to call Theodore Roosevelt by his nickname "Teddy".
Charlie is the English pronunciation of French. The name of "Imperial Peacock" Charlie Bonaparte should be Charles Joseph Bonaparte-Patterson. He is the most devout Puritan and conservative. He prefers to take a carriage rather than a car on long journeys. He refuses progressivism and electricity to enter his Baltimore home. But this figure who has been ignored in the 21st century is the founder of the FBI of the United States. He and Teddy became friends because of fighting crime.
In the early 20th century, the United States made great economic progress. The acceleration of industrialization in the north further disintegrated the old colonial system in the southern United States. The first Ford car was born on the assembly line in Detroit. Urbanization began to accelerate. At the same time, the relationship between workers and leaders had reached the point of being on the verge of a sword. In order to achieve monopoly and establish their own strong position, some trust companies began to bribe officials, and the crime rate in some new cities was also rising rapidly. Al Capone, John Dillinger, and Baby Face Nelson basically spent their childhoods in this era. Without the constraints of the law, the federal government was unable to cope with the transformation of society, and local police were often forced to assist in dealing with some special matters. In order to barely maintain social order, the federal government could only rely on a meager budget and agents to complete some very difficult tasks. Charles Bonaparte said, "The laws and regulations of the country are barriers in times of war. If they can be well constructed, they can help good citizens fulfill their obligations." However, in addition to fighting crime, the Secret Service at that time also had a very important task, which was to protect the safety of the president. In 1901, President McKinley was assassinated by a 28-year-old dictator, Leon Czolgosz, and the bullet hit his abdomen.
According to the US Constitution, Vice President Roosevelt took over McKinley's position as president. Like Charles Bonaparte, he believed that the country could not make long-term progress in an unordered environment. 1 Bonaparte became the 46th Attorney General in American history, representing the federal government to deal with the monopoly case of Rockefeller Company.
The Attorney General did not like to spend the night in Washington. Every day he would commute by train from Baltimore to Washington. On the commuter train, he would review Rockefeller's thousands of pages of files, looking for flaws in these files like Napoleon Bonaparte studied military maps.
If soldiers worship victorious generals, then Lawrence, who is also a lawyer, worships this victorious lawyer who dares to compete with oil tycoons in court. The once invincible Rockefeller Empire was dismantled into 37 subsidiaries in the hands of Charles Bonaparte. The largest antitrust case in American history ended with a complete victory by the federal government, even though the symbolic significance of this victory far outweighed the actual blow suffered by Rockefeller.
The free market will inevitably form a monopoly. When an oligarch is destroyed, a new one will soon emerge, just like black magic. One of New York's landmark buildings, Rockefeller Building, was built by Rockefeller Company. Its top floor used to be an observation deck overlooking the panoramic view of New York. However, with the completion of the World Trade Center Twin Towers, Rockefeller Center took away a lot of limelight. The observation deck was also closed in the 1980s. At the same time, Rockefeller Center was bought by Japan's Mitsubishi Group, which became a symbol of Japan's rise and the decline of the United States.
Later, the United States took advantage of the collapse of the Japanese bubble and bought Rockefeller back. After 9/11, New Yorkers lost a place where they could have a bird's eye view of Manhattan, so Rockefeller's observation deck reopened not long ago.
Rockefeller Center is not the tallest skyscraper in New York, but it is the largest building complex. The headquarters of the Central Intelligence Agency during World War II was also in Rockefeller Center. Before the construction of Rockefeller Center and Chrysler Building, Woolworth Building was the tallest building in New York and even in the world. Originally, its top floor was very suitable for an observation deck, but for some "special reasons", no one thought of it anyway.
The founder of Woolworth Building was a very willful person. He was born in poverty. After he became rich, he became addicted to rabbits and bananas, which he could not get when he was a child. In comparison, John D. Rockefeller Jr. was not happy because he inherited a huge fortune after joining his father's company. Instead, he was always nervous and anxious, and felt tortured by it.
In today's world, even the natives of Amazon can recognize the green dollar bills. Different dollar bills have different characters. The one dollar bill has George Washington, the two dollar bill has the third American president Jefferson, and the five dollar bill has Abraham Lincoln, who abolished slavery in the United States.
His portrait is not only on the dollar bill, but there is a Lincoln Memorial on the west side of the National Mall in Washington, DC. In front of the Lincoln Memorial is a pure white statue of Abraham Lincoln, with a line of words engraved on it: "In memory of Abraham Lincoln, who saved the Union for all Americans."
However, even such a great man never showed mercy when dealing with Indian issues. The expansion history of the United States of America is almost a history of blood and tears of Indians. The extermination of Indians has been the basic mission of the U.S. Army since its establishment. Although Melissa Smith, who is of Indian descent, is a girl, the only way to protect her legal property from being infringed is to pick up a pistol herself. No one will help her, not even law enforcement.
When the knight cannot arrive in time and the hero saves the beauty, the girl has no choice but to become a knight herself. Fortunately, the United States does not ban guns, otherwise Melissa, like her fellow Indians, would have to rely on curses and magic to drive away the Europeans who invaded their homeland.
Although the gunman who assassinated Abraham Lincoln was a Southerner, many conspiracy theorists believe that the assassination was directly related to Lincoln's preparation for currency reform and the withdrawal of currency issuance rights from the Federal Reserve.
Whoever controls the country's currency issuance power is the real power of the country, no matter who the puppet wearing the crown is. Once Lincoln's reforms were implemented, the U.S. economy was no longer under the control of bankers, so "Bang", as a burst of smoke filled the air, Lincoln became the first president to be assassinated, also intending to take the power of currency issuance back from the private Federal Reserve. There is also Kennedy. Kennedy's widow said that the gunman was just a hired tool. According to the U.S. Constitution, if the president is unable to perform his presidential duties due to an accident, the vice president will take over. Since Kennedy was affirmed, no American has The president dares to take back the right to issue currency easily.
This is just a guess. There is no actual evidence. The secret files of the investigation may not be revealed until another 100 years, or even longer. Like some secrets, they may not leave any traces and become the dust of history.
However, the truth will surface sooner or later. Just like Serafina Picquery, the U.S. Minister of Magic, said in 1926 that there were no more Obscurials in the United States. However, in 1930, there was an Obscurial in New York, which caused great confusion. Destruction and panic, Muggles were unable to deal with this supernatural phenomenon, while the United States Ministry of Magic was busy dealing with the events caused by Grindelwald elsewhere, and laid the blame for the destruction of New York on Newt Scamander and his On magical animals.
How could something as absurd as the Second Salem happen at the foot of the United States Ministry of Magic, which is the tallest building in the world?
The son of a newspaper tycoon who ran for election like Henry Shaw Jr. simply did not believe in the existence of magic. Regarding the history of witch hunting, Muggle schools would not explain it in detail. Anyway, they could just blame it all on the dark Middle Ages. People of that era Too ignorant and superstitious.
During the Revolutionary War, the Channing family was a well-known jurist. He once said that the U.S. Constitution is a contract with death.
The belief that all people are created equal cannot solve the legal problem of slavery, but it can explain the rationality and legality of the revolution. However, the Declaration of Independence was written by them themselves. Slave owners who could not find an explanation in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution then looked for "a higher "Laws" are things to be obeyed, such as the church and the Bible.
This accelerated the collapse of faith, and correspondingly, the witch-hunting movement became a scandal that everyone was eager to get rid of.
Also eager to get rid of the scandal was the United States Minister of Magic Picquery. She not only ordered the Aurors to destroy Credence, but also ordered the execution of a female Auror involved in the matter, if it were not Newt Scamman Germany saved her in time, and that female Auror would also become a victim of politics.
The expansion of the Napoleonic Empire was not just an expansion of territory. The French also believed that it was a noble mission to add their superior civilization to their backward neighbors. Just like the United States spread democracy and freedom, these ideas impacted the traditions of every nation. theory.
When a person feels that he is doing something noble, he will not feel that he is committing a crime.
What's terrible is that the United States, which claims to be free and open, actually has obscurants who only existed in the Middle Ages. How did it become the number one in the world?
The Americans are dying, and it is up to the British to save the world. The British Ministry of Magic sends Aurors around the world to provide support and solve the "Grindelwald problem."
Compared with the United Kingdom and the United States, French purists are less enthusiastic about complying with international confidentiality laws. French wizards do not give birth. After the French Revolution, the land and other assets left by their ancestors were taken away. They cannot be like some British wizards. Families also rely on ancestral property as a source of income.
Paris is the Paris of lovers. Beauty is not only a pass for women, but also a rope ladder to change their destiny. Therefore, various beauty potions are sold very well.
With income, every wizard must provide a donation to maintain the operation of the Ministry of Magic and Hair. Later, the political changes in France had nothing to do with the wizarding nobles, because their wealth no longer depended on the king.
This organizational structure was thought up by Rabastan Lestrange, the patriarch of the Lestrange family. In addition, he also transported the trolls doing evil in Liechtenstein to the sparsely populated Norway. Cruel ogres are trained as mascots for the Quidditch World Cup performance team. Although they are not as good-looking as the Bulgarian team's Veela, they are part of the "tradition".
France is very tolerant of Veela. For some special reason, even if they are classified as beasts by mom, they can marry human men and have the same status as human women. No one will care about or discriminate against them.
Correspondingly, the status of Muggle-born wizards is very low. The Ministry of Magic will allow a female half-giant to become the headmaster, but will not give Muggles any chance. Usually, they are the low-level salesmen who sell those potions to Muggles. In contrast, Britain, which has experienced the "revolution", has become the ideal place for these Muggle-born wizards. For example, Fleur Delacour became an employee of Gringotts in the UK. There is actually Gringotts in France, but she prefers to develop in the UK. She met Bill Weasley there and married him. What kind of man can't a woman like her find? But she married a poor guy.
Does a half-werewolf who has no power and is discriminated against have the ability to protect his beautiful wife?
Fortunately, he is a hero, but how long can this hero's halo last?
Women can be naive and full of love, but men can't. If Bill doesn't want to be taken away from his wife like Yusuf Kama's father, he can't continue to be like his father.
He must fight for power, or become stronger. As long as no one can beat him, then the half-blood veela will still be his.
Therefore, strength brings happiness, and losers will have everything taken away.
The power generated by a heart that fights to protect something is different from that generated by a heart that fights without knowing why.
Percy Weasley once left his family for fame and fortune, but later he came back and his family accepted him.
Studying is not always for success. The Weasley family is ordinary and happy, which makes Harry feel warm and decides to abandon his blood relatives and stay in the magic world.
It is not all about interests that make people stay, but Voldemort does not seem to understand this. He pursues power unilaterally and eventually gets lost in his own ocean, becoming a counterexample to others' refutation of that statement.
Hatred, prejudice and fear can distort people's views, just as love and credulity can make people blind.
What a pity, not only because he is talented, but also because part of what he said is right, but no one believes it. Maybe he will only wake up when the disaster falls on his head, but it will be too late at that time.
While Severus and Garcia were chatting, Conseil finished reading the story. He looked at Severus, wanting to say something but stopping himself.
"Would you like a glass?" Garcia said, holding up his champagne glass.
"Thank you," Conseil said politely.
The hostess got up and left the living room.
"What's written on it?" Severus asked expressionlessly.
"A love story," Conseil said, "Don't worry, it's not as explicit as the Marquis de Sade."
"What's written on it!" Severus asked word by word.
"A story about a man being saved by an angel," Conseil said conservatively, "but the angel was bewitched by a devil, and he wanted to save her."
Severus laughed in anger, and the glass on the table broke into pieces because of his magic pressure, and the wine inside spilled on the table.
