Emigration restrictions in history I'll have a look - unfortunately that's purely from memory of studying it at A-level, so it may take some hunting |

To what can we trace the idea of “civic responsibility”? The earliest example in my personal knowledge is the ancient Greek "polis", but there may well be earlier examples of civic responsibility. |

What is the basic structure of British Politics? Don't forget that if a policy is too unpopular, or the whips ride too roughshod over MPs they can rebel - this has occurred in the past, and can bring down a government. |

Why did Operation Market Garden go ahead when the allies knew German armor was in the area? It means that any bolding, italics etc is inserted by Luke, not the original author. |

What is the origin of the English Ship Building Philosophy? Apart from the cites issue which you note, you use a lot of jargon, presumably Marxist in origin, which you do not explain. This makes your answer much harder to interpret for the general reader. |

Did the Gallic army besieged in Alesia conduct itself well when expecting relief? Added point - internal division. If those inside Alesia represented Vercingetorix's personal power base, and the relieving force were allies, he may have felt it necessary to keep his own force reasonably intact, lest he lose all influence amongst other Gauls in the aftermath of victory. |

Why was Africa colonized last of the continents in the Age of Discovery? To add to this brilliant answer, I would mention that Portugal had a lot less manpower to sink into militarily dominating territory than Spain did. |

What Was the Legacy of the Diggers? I have also got some sources courtesy of the guy who told me about ThereauJohn in the first place: thewildbeast.co.uk/wordpress/2006/07/29/… and there is by all accounts a lot on JSTOR if you have access to that (I don't). The rest is books which I can pass on if you like, message me! |

What Was the Legacy of the Diggers? Hi, sorry, had to spend a little while tracking it down - his original name was Thomas Totney, and it is under this name that he is listed in e.g. Oxford Dictionary of National Biography and Wiki. |
