Foreign Policy

Outburst in 1877 Russo-Turkish War (1877-1878), which ended in disaster for the Ottoman Empire. Russia imposed a harsh treaty, the Treaty of San Stefano, which put an assembly meeting in Berlin, was adopted July 13, 1878, but softened by the diplomatic efforts of the British government of Benjamin Disraeli.
The consequence of this defeat was the dismemberment of the Ottoman Empire, which includes the transfer or "lease" to the UK on the island of Cyprus, and forced by his weakness, to admit the French protectorate over Tunisia in 1881. We had problems in Egypt, where a discredited jedive, Muhammad Taufiq, had to be deposed.
In 1879 set off a nationalist rebellion in court, led by an Egyptian army officer, Ahmed Urabi. Abdul Hamid had such bad relations with the pacha Urabi, resulting in the UK crushes rebellion by sending his troops on the pretext of "bringing order" in 1882, making the virtual control over Egypt and Sudan, while on paper remained Ottoman provinces until 1914. In 1923, the peacock throne waive its rights over Egypt and Sudan signed the Treaty of Lausanne. The autonomy of Ceuta in 1898 and the independence of Bulgaria in 1908 were other consequences of the weakness of Turkey.

Star Tiger and Star Ariel

... development of tropical storms and providing continued coverage ... characteristic of tropical storms are expected in your area in the next 24 hours. ...
Another well-known is the loss of 2 Tudor IV transport aircraft, called Star Tiger and Star Ariel. Aircraft operated by the airline British South American Airways Corporation routinely flew the route from South America - Bermuda.
The incident took place in the hours before dawn on January 31, 1948. Loading 29 passengers plus crew, commanded by Captain B. W. McMillan, the Star Tiger came out a few hours before Santa Maria (Azores), one of the many points of scale to refuel on its fixed route from London (England) to Havana (Cuba). When approaching Bermuda, McMillan made the expected contact with Kindley Field, the next stop and asked to gauge its radio and navigation systems to ensure that they were ongoing.
In determining that the plane was slightly off course, its position was corrected with respect to Bermuda to 72 degrees on the island. At this point, when was the Star Tiger less than two hours flight from there, McMillan gave confirmation of an ETA of 05:00 hours, one hour later due to strong winds. No additional transmission was received from the plane since then.
Were sent rescue armed with accurate reports of the last known position of the plane after it was determined that it was very late and not had any trace of it.
In a report issued shortly after the Civil Air Ministry (Civil Air Ministry), there were numerous hypothesis of what might have happened during the final two hours, until each one was subsequently rejected. 'bases would have to assume that the Star Tiger fell into the ocean as a result of which the ship was being deprived of his radio, to fail in search of his destiny, and have destroyed their fuel ... There is a good reason to believe that no emergency message was broadcast over the ship because there were many radio receiving stations tuned to the frequencies of the aircraft, and none of them received such a message. ... The weather was stable, there were no atmospheric disturbances that could cause serious structural damage to the ship, and there was electricas storm.
It was assumed that the plane was off course not, because the transmission from Bermuda, with winds prevailing, would have led to the thirty miles of the island: "the ship could hardly find the island in a short time, under conditions prevalecian of visibility. " The engine was discarded as a probable cause, because in that stage of the journey without the extra weight of fuel, the aircraft was having a float except two or three turbines, instead of the four with which. The probability that the plane lost three turbines in less than two hours was considered absurd.
Facing the evidence, or perhaps lack thereof, the Committee of Inquiry referred to the loss of Star Tiger eloquently:
In closing this report we can say in truth that no other problem has presented more confusion this investigation. With the complete absence of reliable evidence about the cause of the accident or the nature of Star Tiger the Court has not been able to do more than suggest possibilities, none of which reaches the level of probability. In all activities that involve the cooperation of man and machine combine two elements of diverse character. There is an element of incalculable human factor that depends on factors imperfectly known, and secondly that the mechanical elements that are subject to different laws. A breakdown can occur in either case or in a combination of both. Or some external cause could have caused problems for both man and machine. What happened in this case will never be known and the fate of Star Tiger remains an unsolved mystery.
On January 17, 1949, the Star Ariel also was lost in an area near Bermuda trace if any, with a load of 17 passengers plus crew. The last transmissions showed no warning signs, and dictated a normal flight. This second disappearance CEASING enabling the use of the Tudor IV aircraft. What really happened to them by both aircraft is unknown to this day. This web page contains information for the public in English ...

Bay is claimed by the Dutch. I was reading the blog, Web search maven all about internet search techniques In 1878, the annexation of the colony of the Cape of Good Hope Dutch by the British, the port becomes a part of its territory.
This major port had been discovered in 1487 by Bartolomeu Dias, but the region was claimed by the Portuguese crown, probably because they are abandoned in the middle of the Namib Desert.
In 1840 came the Germans, who took possession of the territory and settled with the name of German Southwest Africa, the name recently given in 1884, losing this possession after his defeat in the First World War. The League of Nations to lay the temporary administration in South Africa as a mandate, which occupied Namibia as a de facto province. Years later the United Nations Organization (UNO) and the International Court of Justice on numerous occasions declared illegal South African occupation.
During the South African occupation, imposed the system of racial segregation (apartheid) and carried out forced movements of people. Huge farms were allocated to farmers of European descent, while the native Africans were relegated to the poorest areas. Web Search Maven En respuesta a esto, se crearon diversas fuerzas opositoras al regimen del apartheid, siendo la mas importante SWAPO que se convertiria a la postre en el representante oficial del pueblo de Namibia en la ONU durante la ocupacion sudafricana. Namibia South Africa used to attack other countries, particularly Angola, in order to prevent communism from spreading to the south of the continent.
After many years of war and under international pressure, South Africa agreed to leave the country and oversee the transition to independence, which in 1989 elected its first president in the person of Sam Nujoma, leader of SWAPO. Sam Nujoma was reelected in 1994 and 1999, also reached in both elections the parliamentary majority. In 2004, Hifikepunye Pohamba (SWAPO candidate) was elected president, making 55 of 72 seats in Congress.
