Decade - 1910s

Even though there were around 500,000 cars registered in 1910, they were mostly owned by Doctors, Lawyers, Politicians, and the wealthy. Very few middle class people had them and the poor could not afford a car. The vast majority of the poor rode horses, or horse and buggy. The city poor walked or took the trolley or some sort of public transportation.

The Central Powers were Germany, Austria-Hungary, Turkey, and Bulgaria. The Allies were Great Britain (and the countries of its Empire),France, Russia, Italy, United States, Serbia, Greece, and Poland.

YES. The 1918 flu pandemic killed over 20 million people worldwide.

The Spanish Flu was a true Pandemic, affecting every corner of the world.

Dysentery is caused by drinking contaminated water. Soldiers in WW1 often did not have access to clean water supplies.

The Spanish inlfuenza was an especially virulent virus that spread across the world in 1918, killing many millions of people. It was likely carried around the globe by soldiers returning from World War I (1914-1918). Both soldiers and civilians may have been made more susceptible by malnutrition -- there were famines in many of the countries where the war was waged.

As many as 500 million people became infected, and between 50 and 100 million died.

Spanish flu if you mean the swine flu then i think it happened probably 2009.

None. The flood waters did not rush into Paris, creating great waves and washing people away; they rose gradually over a period of 10 days, then sank again over 35 days. Many people were flooded out, several houses crumbled slowly; but there were no deaths directly caused by the flooding.

In May 1889 over 2,200 people died in the Johnstown (Pennsylvania) flood. Other estimates over the years say that as many as 5000 may have perished.

When buying iron for the Titanic's rivets, the company ordered No. 3 bar, known at the time as "best" - not No. 4, known as "best-best". Records show that shipbuilders of the day typically used No. 4 iron for anchors, chains and rivets.

Many of the rivets studied by the scientists - recovered from the Titanic's hull two miles down in the North Atlantic were found to be riddled with high concentrations of slag. This is a glassy like residue of smelting, slag can make rivets brittle and prone to fracture as it causes small pockets which are brittle. There are still reports (as complied by the UKs BBC) that there was actually a fire in the coal bunkers in the forward boiler room which was burning to such a degree that this may have added to the issue of metal fatigue. In their report the BBC found notes from firemen of the time at the dock that the hull glowed as the internal heat increased. Stokers were, until disembark time trying to shove out the hot coals to bring down the temperature. The enquiry post accident was, it is claim told to ignore this as it did not represent the instances of the collision

There were many colleges in the US, for instance, William & Mary, in Williamsburg, Chowan College in Murfreesboro NC, Guilford Female College NC,and many many more.

The RMS Titanic was completed March 31, 1912.

Approximately 112,000 Americans died in WWI - half of which died from disease. http://wiki.answers.com/Q/How_Many_of_the_World_War_1_Canadian_Expeditionary_Force_died_from_disease The main disease would have been Spanish Influenza in both cases?

These ships were not burning oil yet. They were still fueled by coal.

After World War One, vessels like these were refitted for oil.

House of Assembly of South Africa was created in 1910.

he changed the frame of the ship to wrought iron rivets that meant when the titanic hit the iceberg it could rip the exterior easily and flood the watertight compartments that had a little gap between each that let the water flood them 1 by 1; which he reduced the size of for a bigger staircase.he ordered the ship to go faster to therefore they probably crashed into the iceberg for that reason.

The titanic has been sunk now for 100 years on March 2012.

Yes, there were elevators on the Titanic. Not like the ones we know today though.
