Illegal Immigration

Migration has been a common part of human life for thousands of years, and it has spread knowledge and culture of many peoples to distant lands. Our world was built on mankind's need for expansion and trade, an essential part to any good society. Depending upon the advanced society, migrants in the past would be met either with hospitality and cooperation, or conflict and restriction. However migration eventually becomes necessary because it fulfills the means of life that should be shared among all peoples from all lands. Throughout time, this idea of migration has not changed, but the manner in which we enforce rules that we had to develop to control migration has changed, greatly affecting how our civilization interprets immigration.

The Vikings

Powerful, savage and unsparing, the Vikings tormented the shores of Britain, France and other early European nations for decades. These hostiles, as they are referred by many, pillaged and looted coastal villages across the sea, taking no mercy. Monstrous in size, these warriors were unquestionably strong and brutal. Other than their normal looting and slaughtering, Vikings would rape most to all women in the settlement.
They would attack mostly in the summer months, when it was easiest and safest to travel. Strong and willing, Viking soldiers were brute war machines bred for the purpose of war. Their excellence on the battlefield was a major reason they were so successful and feared. For decades on end, the Vikings were left unhindered by their victims. Many of the coastal peoples would migrate inland during the summer to avoid the threat. That, however prompted the Vikings to settle in the abandoned area and further expand their rule. They would conquer the coasts of most of the northern European kingdoms including Iceland, Ireland, and Scotland. Though many of these coastal Viking regions were short-lived, their impact on the country which they invaded was great.
For years the Vikings depleted life on the coasts, but after the rise of Feudalism and medieval Europe, these villages and towns now had the unity and fortifications to defend themselves from these ruthless invaders. After years of raiding the shores of the new world, the Vikings became weak and slowly became a minimal threat to any defense. Scandinavian, Danish and Norwegian kingdoms grew to the standards of the West and the Vikings were said to have been diminished. However their time in America draws many questions of who founded the new world first and on what intentions. It is a past that is uncertain, but time holds the answers.

The Age of Revolution

There was a time in our worlds history when rebellion swept the lands of Europe. America's revolution against England inspired many other conflicts through the next seventy years. Soon after the United States gained its freedom from England in 1783, France experienced a revolution of their own. It became one of the bloodiest and most brutal conflicts to have come to past. Witnesses on the streets of Paris write of blood rushing through the sewer systems of the city. This span of time will come to be known as the Reign of Terror, where around 17,000 citizens will lose their head to the guillotine, a viscous and brutal machine of execution at the time. Strangely enough, this instrument of death was thought to have been a more civil and clean death. Through all the turmoil the king of France, Louis XVI, will be imprisoned and executed, as well as an estimate of nearly 40,000 citizens. As the revolution dragged on, Marie Antoinette, Queen of France will also lose her head in what can be described as one of the bloodiest conflicts in history.
