Why did the british play 'the world turned upside down' when they surrendered at Yorktown?

According to American legend, the British army band under Lord Cornwallis played this tune when they surrendered after the Siege of Yorktown (1781). Customarily, the British army would have played an American or French tune in tribute to the victors, but General Washington refused them the honours of warand insisted that they play "a British or German march." Although American history textbooks continue to propagate the legend the story may have been apocryphal as it was added a century after the surrender.

Why As a result of actions during world war 1 Charles schenck was convicted in court. what did he do that led to the case?

Charles T. Schenck was the secretary of the Socialist Party of America in Philadelphiaduring the First World Warand involved in the 1919 Supreme Court case Schenck v. United States.Schenck had been indicted and tried for distributing 15,000 subversive leaflets to prospective military draftees during World War I.

However, the Court unanimously upheld his conviction.

How does a war get declared a world war?

Alright, the more political/sensible answer that i would thought of is when the whole world, i mean the whole world is affected. For such cases like the recent Iraq War is not really a world war. But according to history records, World War 1 & 2 are define as 'world wars' is because they involved most major power countries (capable of causing military destructive) to the world are involved such as 'Russia, US, British, Germany etc' and other countries which are co-dependant on each other were greatly affected due to the fact that the main countries would be concentrating on the war, not so much concern about other matters around the world. Therefore other countries would became 'stagant' in a way. If all the countries are affected by the war and Half the world is invovled in the war then it is a world war

When did New Zealand first sent troops overseas to fight?

The military history of New Zealand is an aspect of the history of New Zealand that spans several hundred years. When first settled by Māori almost a millennium ago, there was much land and resources, but war began to break out as the country'scarrying capacity was approached. Initially being fought with close range weapons of wood and stone, this continued on and off until Europeans arrived, bringing with them new weapons such as muskets. Colonisation by Britain led to the New Zealand land wars in the nineteenth century in which settler and imperial troops and their Māori allies fought against other Māori and a handful of Pākehā. In the first half of the twentieth century, New Zealanders of all races fought alongside Britain in the Boer Warand both World Wars. In the second half of the century and into this century the New Zealand Defence Force has provided token assistance to the United States in several conflicts. New Zealand has also contributed peacekeeping troops extensively to multilateral peacekeeping operations.

What does And the Band Played Waltzing Matilda song have to do with remembrance day?

If you read the lyrics carefully, you will see the clear allusions to the war. Remembrance Day is about remembering those fallen in war. In particular, note the following lines:Then in 1915, my country said son, It's time you stopped rambling, there's work to be done.So they gave me a tin hat, and they gave me a gun, and they marched me away to the war.And the band played Waltzing Matilda, as the ship pulled away from the quayAnd amidst all the cheers, the flag-waving and tears, we sailed off for GallipoliAnd how well I remember that terrible day, how our blood stained the sand and the waterAnd of how in that hell that they called Suvla Bay, we were butchered like lambs at the slaughter.Johnny Turk he was waiting, he'd primed himself well. He shower'd us with bullets,And he rained us with shell. And in five minutes flat, he'd blown us all to hellNearly blew us right back to Australia.The song goes on to tell what it was like in the trenches, and then the quick evacuation out of Gallipoli. And in the end, the song recalls the ANZAC parades, and how slowly, the men who were in World War 1, have disappeared with the passing of time. The song reminds us "Lest We Forget".And so now every April, I sit on me porch, and I watch the parades pass before me.And I see my old comrades, how proudly they march, reviving old dreams of past gloriesAnd the old men march slowly, old bones stiff and sore. They're tired old heroes from a forgotten warAnd the young people ask, what are they marching for? And I ask myself the same question.But the band plays Waltzing Matilda, and the old men still answer the call,But as year follows year, more old men disappear. Someday no one will march there at all.
