Nicole's Myanmar Reflection

After watching the videos and doing the assignment, I learned that Myanmar has been and still is ruled by its military. The people of this country wanted freedom, peace, and democracy. It first started out as peaceful protests and walks of the people. Then the people began to taunt and make fun of the military, resulting in violence. The world first noticed this conflict when monks began to fight for freedom and justice of the people. They stood up for what they believed in. Most people living there were scared because of the threatening violence in the streets. The violence has settled down and the government became democratic but the military still patrol the streets.
