People From Dorking
The term "the people" refers to the public or common mass of people of a polity. As such it is a concept of human rights law, international law as well as constitutional law, particularly used for claims of popular sovereignty. In contrast, a people is any plurality of persons considered as a whole. Used in politics and law, the term "a people" refers to the collective or community of an ethnic group or nation. Concepts Legal Chapter One, Article One of the Charter of the United Nations states that "peoples" have the right to self-determination. Though the mere status as peoples and the right to self-determination, as for example in the case of Indigenous peoples (''peoples'', as in all groups of indigenous people, not merely all indigenous persons as in ''indigenous people''), does not automatically provide for independent sovereignty and therefore secession. Indeed, judge Ivor Jennings identified the inherent problems in the right of "peoples" to self-determination, as i ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Fortune (Plymouth Colony Ship)
: In fall 1621, the ''Fortune'' was the second English ship destined for Plymouth Colony in the New World, one year after the voyage of the Pilgrim ship ''Mayflower''. Financed as the ''Mayflower'' was by Thomas Weston and others of the London-based Merchant Adventurers, ''Fortune'' was to transport thirty-five ''settlers'' to the colony on a ship that was much smaller than ''Mayflower''. The ''Fortune'' required two months to prepare for the voyage and once underway, reached Cape Cod on 9 November 1621 and the colony itself in late November. The ship was unexpected by those in the Plymouth colony and although it brought useful settlers, many of whom were young men, it brought no supplies, further straining the limited food resources of the colony. The ship only stayed in the colony for about three weeks, returning to England in December loaded with valuable furs and other goods. But when nearing England, instead of heading to the English Channel, a navigation error caused the s ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
