	The Great Exhibition - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Great Exhibition of the Works of Industry of all Nations was organised by Prince Albert, Henry Cole, Francis Fuller and other members of the Royal Society for the Encouragement of Arts, Manufactures and Commerce as a celebration of modern industrial technology and design.
		It can be argued that the Great Exhibition was mounted in response to the highly successful French Industrial Exposition of 1844.
		Prince Albert, Queen Victoria's consort, was an enthusiastic promoter of a self-financing exhibition; the government was persuaded to form the Royal Commission for the Exhibition of 1851 to establish the viability of hosting such an exhibition.

		Apart form agriculture the chief industries of Annam are the threshing and winnowing of rice and the extraction of the oil, the shelling of cotton, and the preparation of jute, indigo, and tobacco.
		In general sober and industrious, the Annamite is greatly attached to his family and his home, and, though naturally of a gentle and timid disposition, exhibits on occasion a courageous scorn of death.
		The French troops meanwhile gained victory after victory: Bac-ninh, Kep, Thai-nguyen, and Hung-hao were successively captured and on 2 June, 1884, a treaty was signed promising indemnity for the Christians, and a general amnesty for those who had assisted France.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: France
		Joan of Arc, who saved the French monarchy, as the heroine of Christendom, and believed that the Maid of Orléans meant to lead the king of France on another crusade when she had secured him in the peaceful possession of his own country.
		The result of the diplomacy of Richelieu (1624-42) and of Mazarin (1643-61) was a fresh defeat for the House of Austria; French arms were victorious at Rocroi, Fribourg, Nördlingen, Lens, Sommershausen (1643-48), and by the Peace of Westphalia (1648) and that of the Pyrenees (1659), Alsace, Artois, and Roussillion were annexed to French territory.
		During the course of the nineteenth century French diplomacy at Rome and in the East has aimed at safeguarding the prerogatives of France as patron of Oriental Christendom, and of thus justifying the traditional trust of the Orientals in the "Franks" as the natural champions of Christianity in the Ottoman Empire.

		It would be his destiny to oversee the last of the French national industrial expositions and the first of the universal expositions.

		His oeuvre is generally seen as a reaction to the conventional classical style imposed by the French Academy, yet undoubtedly his works owe much to its doctrines and the ancient and modern masters to whom he was exposed during the hard-won apprenticeship in Rome.

		That America's coal industry, and its iron and steel industry, were born and grew up in Pennsylvania, was no accident of geography or "free enterprise." It was rather a result of precise, scientific calculation and government policy.
		This was the heart of the great American steel industry, built up by Carnegie over the next decade or so, to the point where the United States emerged as the undisputed leader of world industry.

		As a consequence, mid-century France underwent a re-evaluation of its historical architecture and ornament: the Parisian cabinetmaking industry began to draw on the furniture styles closely connected to royal patronage during the sixteenth, seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.

		During the 18th and 19th centuries, with the evolution of manufacturing arising from the Industrial Revolution, fairs evolved from sites for direct sales to sites displaying a broad range of available goods: only samples of much more diverse product ranges were exhibited.
		Since that first fair in New York City, its history was inextricably bound to the industrial and social progress of America, through the Depression to the showing of an early motion picture at a fair in Chicago.
		The Pledge of Allegiance was written for the dedication ceremonies of the Chicago exposition and the Liberty Bell (a potent symbol in America, this bell was rung to announce the signing of the Declaration of Independence in 1776) journeyed to many of the fairs.

		Marx entered politics as the crusading editor of a newspaper which was the organ of the extreme left of the liberal democracy of the industrialized Rhineland, and soon became the foremost editorial voice of complete political democracy in Germany.
		He rejects this, in favor of the negative definition "absence of class government." Thus the very notion of workers' democracy as a sine qua non of socialism is junked, as effectively as by the clever redefinitions of democracy current in the Communist academies.
