Film Lesson: "Mountains of the Moon"

The Movie "Mountains of the Moon" was based on the journey's of Richard Burton And John Speek. They Faced Many hardships in Africa. There were all of these tribes that wanted to attack because they were travelling in their "kingdoms". They also faced other hardships like lack of water, and when they did find water it was tainted but their men still drank from it and ended up dying.

It is strange that the source of the nile is the 3rd largest lake in the world because it is named after Queen Victoria, The queen of England at the time John Speek found the lake. It is strange because the lake is in Africa but it has been over 150 years and the Africans who love there sill did not change the name into a more appropriate african name for a lake.

The Europeans were able to conquer the Africans so easily because they were not evolved. While the Africans had spears and stuff, the Europeans had Machine guns, pistols and such. The Europeans had better stronger weapons the Africas have never seen of before, so i guess they had to die or surrender.
