Theme1: The significance of major religious traditions or religious conflicts

Why I Chose This Theme?

I chose this theme based on the fact that England is a peaceful country based on religious matters. The majority of people in England are Christians, and their religious beliefs have helped ensure no major religious conflicts within England’s borders. The largest religious group in England comprise of Christians who are staunch followers of Roman Catholic Teachings.

The period in England's History That Connects Which Connects with This Theme.

Between the years 590 and 604, England was converted into Christianity, which connects with our theme. Missionaries were instructed through a letter by Pope Gregory the Great to Mellitus of 601 to preach the Christian gospel, destroy idols used for worship, and sanctify all temples using holy water blessed by the Pope (Gregory the Great, 601). Despite the order to destroy all idols used for worship, Pope also required all missionaries to carry out his mandate in a peaceful manner as directed by Christianity doctrines.

Theme3: The impact of modern warfare (WWI or later)

Why did you select this concept/theme from the list?

England military troops have an exceptional reputation in the whole world. The England military has modern fighting equipment all in the land, air, and sea. Also, the military troop has ensured security and peace across all borders of England. Countries fear England organized troops, and therefore it is rare to find any country deliberately coming to war with England.

The period in England's History That Connects Which Connects with This Theme.

England has one remarkable war event, which occurred in the year 1015 up to the year 1016. Knut invaded England, a war that lasted for a whole year. According to (Peter, 2013) this war was promoted by several kings and other respectful leaders. It is reported that Knut sailed to England with a troop ready to wage war. As a result of the Knut attack, England has therefore trained its army to be in a position to withstand all actions and protect the civilians. England's experienced troops have gained a world reputation over the years due to their knowledge of warfare.

Theme 4: The impact of modern globalization on today’s world

Why did you select this concept/theme from the list?

The main reason why I chose this theme is that, in modern Britain, England has maintained its position as the only nation among Scotland and Ireland. England has a queen who controls the whole of Britain. It is evident that England supports globalization, and the benefits of globalization are peace across the nations and increased economic growth over time.
