Human rights and human rights abuses in Qatar - According to the USA State Department, expatriate workers from nations throughout Asia and parts of Africa are routinely subjected to forced labour in Qatar. Most of these people voluntarily migrate to the Emirate as low-skilled labourers or domestic servants, but are subsequently subjected to conditions indicative of involuntary servitude.

Whereas traditional postal advertisements produce huge amounts of waste paper and plastic waste, modern electronic forms consume bandwidth and data storage space, and especially stealing the time from human beings and users.

Specific unsolicited advertising issues: Attention theft by creating situations in which marketers serve advertisements to consumers who have not consented to view them and who are given nothing in return. Perpetrators seek to distract targets with their advertising content, thereby commandeering their attention. - Specific attention theft issues include market research, invasion of privacy, false advertising etc. - Targeted advertising and online advertising, increasing because companies aim to minimize wasted advertising by means of information technology. Most targeted new media advertising currently uses second-order proxies for targets, such as tracking online or mobile web activities of consumers, associating historical web page consumer demographics with new consumer web page access, using a search word as the basis of implied interest, or contextual advertising. - Search engine marketing, as in 2007, USA advertisers spent US $24.6 billion on search engine marketing.

So the start of modern psychological operations in war is generally dated to World War I. By that point, Western societies were increasingly educated and urbanized, and mass media was available in the form of large circulation newspapers and posters. It was also possible to transmit propaganda to the enemy via the use of airborne leaflets or through explosive delivery systems like modified artillery or mortar rounds. At the start of the war, the belligerents, especially the British and Germans, began distributing propaganda, both domestically and on the Western front. The British had several advantages that allowed them to succeed in the battle for world opinion, they had one of the world's most reputable news systems, with much experience in international and cross-cultural communication, and they controlled much of the undersea cable system then in operation. These capabilities were easily transitioned to the task of warfare. The British also had a diplomatic service that maintained good relations with many nations around the world, in contrast to the reputation of the German empire's services, as the empire since August 1914 was globally known as aggressor

Propaganda used by the German NSDAP political party since 1920/21: The propaganda used by the German NSDAP political party since 1920/21 in the years leading up to and during Adolf Hitler's dictatorship of Germany from 1933 to 1945 was a crucial instrument for acquiring and maintaining power, and for the implementation of Nazi policies. The NSDAP emerged from the extremist German nationalist, racist and populist 'Freikorps' paramilitary culture, which fought against the SPD's Luxemburg and Liebknecht faction and then communist called uprisings in post–World War I Germany. The party was created to draw workers away from communism and into 'völkisch' nationalism. Initially, Nazi political strategy focused on anti–big business, anti-bourgeois, and anti-capitalist rhetoric. This was later downplayed to gain the support of business leaders, and in the 1930s the party's main focus shifted to antisemitic and anti-Marxist themes.

Middle of the 5th century until 751 Merovingian dynasty: After in 486 Clovis I defeated Syagrius - a Roman military leader who competed with the Merovingians for power in northern France -, he won the Battle of Tolbiac against the Alemanni in 496, at which time Clovis adopted his wife Clotilda's Orthodox (i.e. Nicene) Christian faith. He subsequently went on to decisively defeat the Visigothic kingdom of Toulouse in the Battle of Vouillé in 507. After Clovis's death, his kingdom was partitioned among his four sons. This tradition of partition continued over the next century. Even when several Merovingian kings simultaneously ruled their own realms, the kingdom - not unlike the late Roman Empire - was conceived of as a single entity ruled collectively by these several kings (in their own realms) among whom a turn of events could result in the reunification of the whole kingdom under a single ruler.

Martel cemented his place in history with his defense of Christian Europe against a Muslim army at the Battle of Tours in 732.
