Writing a Research Paper in Political Science

by

University life holds a lot of importance to every person’s life. No doubt that it is termed as the trail session of one’s upcoming practical life. It makes a person ready to accept and face the challenges of the real world. It is well known that University life comes with its own pros and cons. On one hand, it offers a bundle of memorable moments that everyone cherishes till the end. On the other, it comes with a lot of stress coming from endless assignments, quizzes, exams, projects, and research papers.

A lot of students, while writing their research papers, feel trapped, and can’t find the valuable and relevant information needed. Although these internet times have brought the whole world just a click away, it is the time of lack of authentic information. The internet provides a lot of information, but is that reliable enough to use in the research paper?

Writing a research paper in political sciences https://studenterra.com/promo/order_scientific_research_paper_online_cheap is not an easy work to do too.

Now even when the submission date is just around the corner, students can not only get a quality research paper but also can review and improve it by using this web platform.

Apart from that, most students face problems while writing a scientific research paper. Because the specific in-depth knowledge on scientific topics is not in the readily comprehensible form, even when a lot of stuff is available on the internet, it contains scientific jargon and complex terms that a student cannot grasp. Therefore, StudentTerra’s expert selection process is rigorous. It only hires experts who are graduated with honors from higher education institutions. This ensures a quality product for the clients. If the client is not satisfied with the product, he or she can ask and negotiate with the expert to improve the paper and make it according to the requirement of the client.

“See” Malta Now, Travel Later

by

The Mediterranean archipelago of Malta is inviting people to virtually explore their culture and 7,000 years of rich history. Heritage Malta is Malta’s national agency for museums, conservation practice and cultural heritage. Heritage Malta has collaborated with Google to give people the unique opportunity to virtually visit several of the agency’s national museums and sites through the online platform Google Arts & Culture. 

Heritage Malta Virtual Tours

Heritage Malta currently has 25 sites available to virtually tour. This includes various museums, temples, forts, and archaeological sites. Malta is also home to three UNESCO Heritage sites that can be explored virtually: the city of Valletta, the Ħal Saflieni Hypogeum and the Megalithic Temples.

Grandmaster’s Palace

  1. In the city of Valletta, one can view the Grandmaster’s Palace where today it seat’s the Office of the President of Malta. The Palace itself was one of the first buildings in the new city of Valletta founded by Grand Master Jean de Valette in 1566 a few months after the successful outcome of the Great Siege of Malta in 1565. The Palace Armoury is one of the world’s largest collections of arms and armor that is still housed in its original building. The website offers four online exhibits one can look through, photo galleries and two museum views as if one were standing inside the museum. 

Fort St Elmo

Also in Valletta, one can virtually visit Fort St. Elmo National War Museum. Artifacts are displayed in chronological order, commencing from the early phases of the Bronze Age around 2,500 B.C. Two halls are dedicated to Malta’s important role in WWI, the Inter-War Period and Malta’s historical role in the Second World War where the Gloster Sea Gladiator N5520 FAITH, Roosevelt’s Jeep ‘Husky’ and Malta award for gallantry, the George Cross are displayed. This site includes one online exhibit, a photo gallery and 10 museum views that viewers can explore. 

Ħal Saflieni Hypogeum

  1. Ħal Saflieni Hypogeum is located in Raħal Ġdid. This Hypogeum is a rock-cut underground complex that was used both as a sanctuary as well as for burial purposes by the temple builders. It was discovered during construction in 1902. There are three underground levels that date from around 3600 to 2400 BC. There is one online exhibit unveiling an underground prehistoric cemetery, a photo gallery and one museum view. 

Ġgantija Temples

  1. There are seven Megalithic Temples found on the islands of Gozo and Malta, each a result of individual development. Five out of the seven can be virtually visited. The Ġgantija Temples in Xagħra, Gozo are the oldest, free-standing monuments in the world and are a testament to the Island’s inhabitation for at least 1,000 years before the famous Egyptian pyramids of Giza were constructed. On the website viewers can look at one online exhibit, a photo gallery and three museum views. 

Joseph Calleja Video

Musicians and singers in Malta are following suit in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic and sharing their performances online for all to appreciate. Malta’s tenor, Joseph Calleja asked his fans to request songs and arias they would like to hear him sing on his Facebook page. 

Heritage Malta Spring Equinox Live Stream

Heritage Malta is also known for organizing yearly events for the public to witness the Spring equinox and this year it was canceled due to COVID-19. Instead, they live-streamed the event on their Facebook page so no one would miss out! The event marks the special relationship between the temples and the seasons. As the first rays of the sun projected themselves through the main doorway of the southern Mnajdra temples, viewers were able to witness the spring equinox online. 

About Malta

The sunny islands of Malta, in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea, are home to a most remarkable concentration of intact built heritage, including the highest density of UNESCO World Heritage Sites in any nation-state anywhere.  Valletta built by the proud Knights of St. John is one of the UNESCO sights and the European Capital of Culture for 2018. Malta’s patrimony in stone ranges from the oldest free-standing stone architecture in the world, to one of the British Empire’s most formidable defensive systems, and includes a rich mix of domestic, religious and military architecture from the ancient, medieval and early modern periods. With superbly sunny weather, attractive beaches, a thriving nightlife and 7,000 years of intriguing history, there is a great deal to see and do.
