England and Scotland Research

Great Britain Research:

The treaty of union was between England and Scotland, together named Great Britain. The Treaty were agreed on 22nd of July 1706, and lasted until 1707. The positive side for being a treaty, is to give a lot of information about the treaties that were signed in the past, in the 1700s. The negatives of the history known from the Scottish and England Act of Union, is when we know some of the Scottish people wanted to be free and be an independent country during the Scottish Independence. As much as the Scottish people wanted to an independent country, the majority of people who said "No" was to equal everything between each groups. The Treaty of Union between Scotland and England uniting, was known that it had been proposed for a hundred years before it really happened in 1707. 

BBC info:

During the time in 1706, it was agreed for the treaty to be faced between England and Scotland, in negotiations in London. England was keeping everything to themselves secretly, promises and everything because they weren't to sure if they would trust the Scottish people so that Scotland would not lose out from union. The councillors in the Scottish Royal Burghs has sent an event of a written request to the Scottish parliament throughout the debates, voicing concern about the Treaty.

The England flag and the Scotland flag were put together to create one flag just like it had been with the debate and for them to be one country for the United Kingdom.

Musket wars

1. The Maori people traded food and flax with Pakeha for the muskets.
2. The musket wars killed over 20,000 people.
3. Tribes without muskets were forced to seek trade with Pakeha for their own because otherwise they would have no chance of winning these battles

The muskets killed over 20,000 people which did show how powerful the weapon was for all the tribes to want. 1 Tribe traded food and flax with Pakeha for muskets so that powers can be even between the two groups. The musket wars caused increased violence and deaths because there was no laws around the ownership/trading of muskets. A treaty prevent this and provide stability.

The Treaty Essay Practise

Historians argue that understanding the causes of significant events is much more important than just remembering dates, facts and figures about things in the past. Signed in 1840, the Treaty of Waitangi is an agreement between Māori—tangata whenua of Aotearoa/New Zealand—and the British.

Causes:
1. Lawless
2. Rights
3. Muskets
4. Dec of I

There were 4 main causes that require an agreement to be between the Maori and Pakeha. The Treaty of Waitangi was signed in 1840 because the Maori and Pakeha had been through different interconnected situations.

The Lawless Behaviour was located in Russell, because there were tough situations between each group. If the treaty isn't signed then both parties would not stop fighting each other until they get what they want. The argument in Russell needed to be stopped even if in a different location, fighting and drinking was used a lot by both parties, and it created a huge mess in the land of Russell. To stop the situations from both sides building up, both would need to sign the treaty for things to get better and so if both parties were to agree everything they want would be received
