County militias were established during the Virginia colonys earliest days These organizations were comprised of local residents who were frequently called upon to put down Indian attacks or slave uprisings At the outset of the Revolution these largely untrained militia regiments were swept into a larger organizational structure and pitted against some of Englands finest soldiers By nothing less than a miracle the Americans succeeded in defeating troops who were far better trained and outfitted The county militias continued to play an active role during the War of 1812 and later when slave uprisings became of grave concern Many of the men who served in Staffords militia during the years immediately preceding the War Between the States were willing to fight to defend their soil from a new enemy By this time the importance of having well trained soldiers had become obvious After the war the Staffords 45th Regiment was not reestablished and faded into obscurity A substantial collection of Stafford Countys militia records are housed at the Library of Virginia in Richmond These span the years 17811856 and are nearly complete for most of those years These reports included the names of officers and rosters of the names of men who failed to appear at one or more of the required summer monthly musters The principle value of this collection is that it contains many names that cannot be found in any other official Stafford County records The author has abstracted the material from this collection organized it by year and attempted to include brief biographical footnotes for as many of the militiamen as possible This may include birth andor death years parents and spouses names places of residence business interests or occupations land andor personal property tax information wills Homestead Exemptions court records newspaper notices etc Indexing is done by the years in which the men were listed and when possible the biographical footnotes are inserted the first time an individ

As international interference incidents augment in many regions of the world the issue of international interference came fore more prominently in the academy and international law researches Currently we can observe multifarious forms international interventions and their impacts on the international developments are obvious and increasingly influentialSince international interventions take a myriad of forms in terms of their goals methods employed and assume different properties it is not easy to generalize them Although some international interventions can never be justified from the aspects of the law and international norms it should be admitted that some international interventions have reasonable grounds and play benign and constructive roles and the latter are properly authorized by the UN Security Council they prevent evil incidents safeguard justice and peace thus lives security and rights of many people are guaranteed This kind of intervention most of the time take peaceful forms deploying peacekeeping troops to prevent violence from further escalationOn the other hand irrational interventions are viewed as ad hoc counterproductive and illegitimate interventions they are not authorized by the UN Security Council or go beyond its authorization stipulations thereby bypass the international law and institutions and serve the narrow interests of certain states or groups this type of interventions sometimes employ nonviolent ways such as economic and political sanctions embargoes and containment of a country but mostly resort to military forces heavy bombing and shelling and even overthrow the current regime replace the government and promote their own allies ascending to powerLooking from a rational historical view the increasing demands for international intervention can be seen an important manifestation of human progress because human beings share the same dwelling spaceour earthand mankind cannot stand idly by or stand aside when other humans are sufferi
