It was not until 1852 that trains began traversing the Appalachian mountains, and could compete with the canal.
    1826 AD Battle of Navarino The Greeks, who had been ruled by the Ottomans since the 15th century, revolted. The Ottoman Pasha called for and received assistance from the semi independent Mehemet Ali of Egypt. His son Ibrahim commanded the combined Egyptian Ottoman army and fleet. In 1847 the Ottomans were, with Ali’s help, successfully putting down the rebellion. However, public opinion in Western Europe and Russian imperial desires, combined to bring about an intervention in the war. The Russians, British and French worked together to bring about a ceasefire. When their request was ignored by the Ottoman, they sent a fleet to enforce it. The ceasefire could only be enforced on the sea. The combined fleet began by blockading the Port of Navarrone where the Ottoman ships were located. On October 20, 1827 when it was concluded that the blockade could not be maintained ships under the joint command of British Admiral Codrington, entered the harbor . The inevitable occurred and a battle soon broke out. In the course of the battle the complete Ottoman fleet which was laying at anchor in defensive positions was wiped out. Sixty Ottoman ships were destroyed. Ottoman casualties are estimated to have been 6,000 killed and 4,000 wounded. No Allied ship was destroyed although many were severely damaged.

He was the first President not to come from the original colonies. Jackson was considered a true popular hero and used his stature to strengthen the power of the presidency.
    1829 AD Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Begun On December 22, 1829, the first passenger railroad in theUnited States opened. The first railroad line ran from the west side of Baltimore to Ellicott's Mills, a distance of 13 miles. In the beginning, the railroad used horse-drawn carriages, but it was not long before steam engines replaced horses.

    You've Got A Chance
    A rhapsody! Contestants in disguise
    A nation of desire
    But who will win the prize?
    The people stand united,
    Reluctantly aligned
    Copying and lying
    Are the favorite past-time
    You've got a chance
    To confront the world today
    Desperate romance
    Is the curse of castaways
    What good is skill
    If you don't make it to the dance?
    Despite circumstance
    You've got a chance

    Common life depicted on afternoon tv,
    Is spiked to give the miserable a vogue identity
    Hate your neighbors,
    Cheat your friends,
    They don't discriminate
    Popularity and fame don't care
    If you're a reprobate

    You've got a chance
    To confront the world today
    Desperate romance
    Is the curse of castaways
    What good is skill
    If you don't make it to the dance?
    Despite circumstance
    You've got a chance

    I'm tired of all this
    Shakespearean misinformation
    I want to win the game
    You've got the right intentions
    But who's got time to think?
    You've got a noon appointment,
    You've got to hit the links
    You're talking in the stratosphere,
    You're curled up on the floor
    With such a wealth of information,
    Why are you so poor?
    You've got a chance
    To be relevant today
    Desperate romance
    Is the curse of castaways
    What good is skill
    If you don't make it to the dance?
    (don't you believe what the wise men have to say)
    Despite circumstance
    You've got a chance



    It's A Long Way To The Promise Land
    It's a long way to the promise land
    So you'd better well know your way
    There's a ship on the ocean
    And an albatross who is trying to lead you astray
    Leaders, politicians, and power whores
    Are in line to receive your choice
    And you bet your EDIT, if you give it to them,
    They will gladly take your voice
    And it's a long way to the promise land
    Wo-oh Oh oh oh oh
    It's a long way to the promise land,
    If we work we might find it here
    There's no substitute for enlightenment,
    There's no reason for bridled fear
    When you join the people who've joined the club
    You gotta clench and play your hand
    'Cuz if you fall in line you're gonna fall in time
    And you'll never make a stand
    It's a long way to the promise land
    Wo-oh Oh oh oh oh
    What are you going to do?
    When they come for you?
    Bend and capitulate?
    Or keep your head on straight?
    easy answers bought without experience,
    Is gonna lead you to certain doom
    Because the truth is just what you make of it,
    It begins and ends with you!
    And it's a long way to the promise land
    Wo-oh oh oh oh oh



    A World Without Melody
    I don't want to live
    In a world without melody
    Sometimes the rhythmic din
    Of society is too much for me
    But purpose is prioritized
    These days the goal is win the prize
    There's a sleeping resonance we hold,
    Through which we're unified
    So let it out! don't just get lost in the crowd
    No one can deter you from your own path
    There's no trip too remote
    From which you can't come back
    And I've got this hunch about you and me
    None of us are ready
    For a world without melody
    Melody is the key,
    It's the surest way
    To unlock your individuality
    Melody is the key,
    It will set you free!
    Don't disrelish harmony,
    Community will make you whole
    Work and understanding are the chords
    Way deep within your soul
    They only need to be struck once,
    And the vibrations swell and spread
    But if we mute them they decay,
    Our sensibilities are dead
    So let it out! don't just be one of the crowd
