text: Dahomey was an African kingdom (located in the area of the present-day country of Benin) that existed from about 1600 until 1894, when the last king, Behanzin, was defeated by the French, and the country was annexed into the French colonial empire. Dahomey developed on the Abomey Plateau amongst the Fon people in the early 17th century and became a regional power in the 18th century by conquering key cities on the Atlantic coast.

text: Benin art is the art from the Kingdom of Benin or Edo Empire ( 1440 -- 1897 ) , a pre-colonial African state located in what is now known as the South - South region of Nigeria . Primarily made of cast bronze and carved ivory , Benin art was produced mainly for the court of the Oba of Benin - a divine ruler for whom the craftsmen produced a range of ceremonially significant objects . The full complexity of these works can be appreciated only through the awareness and consideration of two complementary cultural perceptions of the art of Benin : the Western appreciation of them primarily as works of art , and their understanding in Benin as historical documents and as mnemonic devices to reconstruct history , or as ritual objects . This original significance is of great import in Benin .

text: A republic (from ) is a sovereign state, country, or government which is organized with a form of government in which power resides in elected individuals representing the citizen body and government leaders exercise power according to the rule of law. In modern times, the definition of a republic commonly refers to a government which excludes a monarch. Currently, 147 of the world's 206 sovereign states use the word "republic" as part of their official names; not all of these are republics in the sense of having elected governments, nor do all nations with elected governments use the word "republic" in their names.

text: A dynasty is a sequence of rulers from the same family, usually in the context of a feudal or monarchical system but sometimes also appearing in elective republics. The dynastic family or lineage may be known as a "house"; which may be styled "royal", "princely", "comital", etc., depending upon the chief or present title borne by its members. Historians periodize the histories of many sovereign states, such as Ancient Egypt, the Carolingian Empire and Imperial China, using a framework of successive dynasties. As such, the term "dynasty" may be used to delimit the era during which the family reigned and to describe events, trends, and artifacts of that period ("a Ming-dynasty vase"). The word "dynasty" itself is often dropped from such adjectival references ("a Ming vase").

The ancient Benin homeland (not to be confused with the modern-day and unrelated Republic of Benin, which was then known as Dahomey) has been and continues to be mostly populated by the Edo (also known as the Bini or Benin ethnic group).

text: Lagos initially emerged as a port city which originated on a collection of islands, which are contained in the present day Local Government Areas (LGAs) of Lagos Island, Eti-Osa, Amuwo-Odofin and Apapa; the islands are separated by creeks, fringing the southwest mouth of Lagos Lagoon, while protected from the Atlantic Ocean by barrier islands and long sand spits such as Bar Beach, which stretch up to east and west of the mouth. Due to rapid urbanization, the city expanded to the west of the lagoon to include areas in the present day Lagos Mainland, Ajeromi-Ifelodun and Surulere. This led to the classification of Lagos into two main areas - the Island, which was the initial city of Lagos, before it expanded into the area known as the Mainland. This city area was governed directly by the Federal Government through the "Lagos City Council", until the creation of Lagos State in 1967, which led to the splitting of Lagos city into the present day seven Local Government Areas (LGAs), and an addition of other towns (which now make up 13 LGAs) from the then Western Region, to form the state.

text: Rallying is a form of motorsport that takes place on public or private roads with modified production or specially built road-legal cars. It is distinguished by running not on a circuit, but instead in a point-to-point format in which participants and their co-drivers drive between set control points (special stages), leaving at regular intervals from one or more start points. Rallies may be won by pure speed within the stages or alternatively by driving to a predetermined ideal journey time within the stages.

text: "Tokusatsu" entertainment often deals with science fiction, fantasy or horror, but movies and television shows in other genres can sometimes count as "tokusatsu" as well. The most popular types of "tokusatsu" include "kaiju" monster movies like the "Godzilla" and "Gamera" film series; superhero TV serials such as the "Kamen Rider" and "Metal Hero"; and mecha series like "Giant Robo". Some "tokusatsu" television programs combine several of these subgenres, for example the "Ultraman" and "Super Sentai" series.

In fact, "Ultraman" opens with the "Ultra Q" logo exploding into the "Ultraman" logo.

text: VR Troopers ( Virtual Reality Troopers ) is a syndicated live action superhero television series produced and distributed by Saban Entertainment from 1994 to 1996 . The show tried to profit from the fascination with virtual reality in the early 1990s as well as the success of Saban 's other property , Power Rangers . VR Troopers was the first official `` sister series '' to Mighty Morphin ' Power Rangers . Much like it , this was an Americanization of a Japanese tokusatsu children 's program series by Toei . The series is a co-production of Toei Company and Cyberprod . The show featured early CGI and video effects mixed with Japanese stock footage from three different Metal Hero Series : Superhuman Machine Metalder , Dimensional Warrior Spielban and Space Sheriff Shaider . On May 7 , 2010 the copyright for VR Troopers was transferred from BVS Entertainment to Saban Capital Group . The series was deemed successful , but not as successful as the Power Rangers franchise . One issue was that the Japanese footage was quickly exhausted due to extreme cases where multiple tokusatsu scenes were put together in one episode to the extent where stock footage had to be reused multiple times throughout the series . Big Bad Beetleborgs , another Saban adaptation of a Metal Heroes series , encountered similar problems . The show spawned a toy line and a video game for the Sega Genesis ( Mega Drive ) and Sega Game Gear . In 2015 , repeats of VR Troopers were available on Kabillion a video - on - demand service .

text: Mighty Morphin Power Rangers is an American live-action superhero children's television series that premiered on August 28, 1993, on the Fox Kids weekday afternoon block (later weekend morning block). It is the first entry of the "Power Rangers" franchise. The show adapted stock footage from the Japanese TV series "Kyry Sentai Zyuranger", which was the 16th installment of Toei's "Super Sentai" franchise. The second and third seasons of the show drew elements and stock footage from "Gosei Sentai Dairanger" and "Ninja Sentai Kakuranger", though the "Zyuranger" costumes were still used for the lead cast. Only the mecha and the Kiba Ranger costume (worn by the White Ranger) were retained from "Dairanger" for the second season, while only the mecha from "Kakuranger" were featured in the third season, though the "Kakuranger" costumes were used for the miniseries "Mighty Morphin Alien Rangers". The series was produced by MMPR Productions and distributed by Saban Entertainment (later Saban Brands). The show's merchandise was produced and distributed by Bandai Entertainment.

text: Power Rangers is an American entertainment and merchandising franchise built around a live action superhero television series. Produced first by Saban Entertainment, later by BVS Entertainment, and by SCG Power Rangers, the television series takes much of its footage from the Japanese tokusatsu "Super Sentai", produced by Toei Company. The first "Power Rangers" entry, "Mighty Morphin Power Rangers", debuted on August 28, 1993, and helped launch the Fox Kids programming block of the 1990s, during which it catapulted into popular culture along with a line of action figures and other toys by Bandai. As of 2010, the media franchise has generated over $5 billion in retail sales worldwide.

In an effort to save money , Uuno became Spede 's first feature to be filmed and edited on video before being printed to film for theatrical distribution . This method was employed by Spede all the way into his late 1980s features . The film was the first produced by Spede after nearly a two - year - long hiatus , when Spede 's three feature films released in 1971 ( Hirttämättömät , Helvetin Radikaalit and Kahdeksas Veljes ) all failed to make a notable profit .

text: Paul Mellon (June 11, 1907  February 1, 1999) was an American philanthropist and an owner/breeder of thoroughbred racehorses. He is one of only five people ever designated an "Exemplar of Racing" by the National Museum of Racing and Hall of Fame. He was co-heir to one of America's greatest business fortunes, derived from the Mellon Bank created by his grandfather Thomas Mellon, his father Andrew W. Mellon, and his father's brother Richard B. Mellon. In 1957, when "Fortune" prepared its first list of the wealthiest Americans, it estimated that Paul Mellon, his sister Ailsa Mellon-Bruce, and his cousins Sarah Mellon and Richard King Mellon, were all among the richest eight people in the United States, with fortunes of between 400 and 700 million dollars each (around $ and $ in today's dollars).

Built between 1775 and 1783 as an upper middle class residential area, the square has had many distinguished residents, including Lord Eldon, one of Britain's longest serving and most celebrated Lord Chancellors, who lived in the largest house in the square for many years. The square takes its name from the main title of the Russell family, the Dukes of Bedford, who owned much of the land in what is now Bloomsbury.
Bedford Square is one of the best preserved set pieces of Georgian architecture in London, but most of the houses have now been converted into offices. Numbers 1-10, 11, 1227, 2838 and 4054 are grade I listed buildings. The central garden remains private. Bedford College, the first place for female higher education in Britain, was formerly located in (and named after) Bedford Square.

text: London is the capital and most populous city of England and the United Kingdom, as well as the most populous city proper in the European Union. Standing on the River Thames in the south east of the island of Great Britain, London has been a major settlement for two millennia. It was founded by the Romans, who named it "Londinium". London's ancient core, the City of London, largely retains its medieval boundaries. Since at least the 19th century, "London" has also referred to the metropolis around this core, historically split between Middlesex, Essex, Surrey, Kent, and Hertfordshire, which today largely makes up Greater London, governed by the Mayor of London and the London Assembly.

text: Ojibwe (Ojibwa, Ojibway), also known as Chippewa or Otchipwe, is an Indigenous language of North America of the Algonquian language family. Ojibwe is characterized by a series of dialects that have local names and frequently local writing systems. There is no single dialect that is considered the most prestigious or most prominent, and no standard writing system that covers all dialects. The relative autonomy of the regional dialects of Ojibwe is associated with an absence of linguistic or political unity among Ojibwe-speaking groups.

The Algonquian languages (or ;
also Algonkian) are a subfamily of Native American languages which includes most of the languages in the Algic language family. The name of the Algonquian language family is distinguished from the orthographically similar Algonquin dialect of the indigenous Ojibwe language (Chippewa), which is a senior member of the Algonquian language family. The term "Algonquin" has been suggested to derive from the Maliseet word "elakómkwik" (pronounced ), "they are our relatives/allies". A number of Algonquian languages, like many of the Iroquoian languages of the hereditary enemies of the Algonquian peoples, have already become extinct.
