Gernika´s museum
The Gernika´s museum is located in Vizcaya in the Basque Country.
This museum has a lot of information about the bombing of Gernika in which die a lot of people.
I have chosen this museum:
As I have said before, I´m going to speak about the bombing of Gernika.
In the museum there are galleries dedicated to igive us information about:
The bombing of Gernika (Operation Rügen) was an air strike on the Spanish population on April 26, 1936, during the Spanish Civil War by the Germans and Italian Aviation, who fought for of the rebels against the government of the Second Spanish Republic. Current estimates encrypt victims died in a range that spans 126 deaths.
Gernika, Basque cultural and historical capital, before the attack had a population of about 5000 people, which would add a large number of troops, retreating to prepare the defense of Bilbao, and refugees fleeing the advancing troops from Franco. At that time did not have any air defense, although it had three weapons factories, one of aviation bombs.

I recommend the museum to everyone who like the history, it´s amazing.
I have chosen this museum:
- Because of its history and information about the deeds that happened in Gernika.

- And because I have gone and it´s amazing.

The Delian League
The Delian League was a group of athenians citizens and the inhabitants of other city-stages of ancient greece. Their headquarter was found in the island of ´Delos´
This organisation was a maritime military alliance created and controlled by aristide, an statesman. In 477 B.C. he wrote the statutes and planified the league to defend the cities-stages from possible persians attacks.
If the cities-stages wanted to be in the Delian League, they should gave money, man and ships to Athens. All of the things that the cities-stages gave were going to be used in the war.
In the other hand, Athens were going to anssure that other cities-stages were not assaulted or invaded by the Persians. Important decissions were made at meetings of a council in which there was a representant from each of the confederated cities, this representative was entitled to voice.
Athens made some poleis that belonged to the Delian League, pay high taxes and took the League´s treasure.
The Delian League continued until the Athenians were defeated by the Spartans in 404 B.C. as a result from the Peloponnesian wars. Since this moment, the alliance was dissolved until 377 B.C. in this case to protect them from Sparta. However, Athens was unable to impose its authority. This was called Second Delian League that desappeared in 338 B.C. because Philip II of macedon defeated Athenians at the battle of Chaeronea
