Factions have been scheming in the Vampire, Fae, Shifter and Demon Districts since the very beginning of the city’s creation. Many of the rebels have been eradicated by the Immortal Triumvirate’s assassins, but they couldn’t wipe them all out. Xiara Evora, the Guardian of Nox, has also killed some of their foes with the aid of her trusty staff, Wrath. The rebels have formed their own triumvirate. They plan to challenge their enemies during the upcoming party to celebrate the city’s fiftieth anniversary. Sebastian, Kade and Raum aren’t the only ones who have formed a union.

If she had more power, she would stand a better chance, but that would entail joining forces with the evilest being in the entire city.

Lebanon

Autor: Eyal Zisser

Número de Páginas: 312

The first decade of independence (1943-1952) was crucial to the political history of Lebanon, following the creation of the state in 1920 and the subsequent years of French tutelage. This period is defined by the presidency of Bishara al-Khuri, the first elected president, a founding father who played a vital part in forming the distinctive character of the Lebanese state and in Lebanon's later history, both rich and successful and troubled and tragic. During this period the old order in Lebanon, shaped over centuries, clashed with a 'new order', transforming Lebanese politics and society. Khuri's task was to protect Lebanon's fragile independence and to try to ensure political stability among warring factions – strife which in 1975 erupted in civil war causing immense disruption and suffering in Lebanon and with deep and widespread national and international effect. This study draws on a wide range of primary and secondary sources including official state papers and private collections from Britain, France, the USA, Lebanon and Israel. _Contents_: Introduction: The Birth of the Lebanese State; First Steps Along a New Road; The 1943 Elections; The National Pact; The November...

Ancient Rights and Future Comfort

Autor: Peter Robb

Número de Páginas: 412

This book analyses the character of British rule in nineteenth-century India, by focusing on the underlying ideas and the practical repercussions of agrarian policy. It argues that the great rent law debate and the Bengal Tenancy Act of 1885 helped constitute a revolution in the effective aims of government and in the colonial ability to interfere in India, but that they did so alongside a continuing weakness of understanding and in effective local control. In particular, the book considers the importance of notions of historical rights and economic progress to the false categorisations made of agrarian structure. It shows that the Tenancy Act helped to widen social disparities in rural Bihar, and to create political interests on the land.
