A national park is a natural park in use for conservation purposes,created and protected by national governments. Often it is a reserve of natural,semi-natural,or developed land that a government declares or owns. Although individual countries designate their own national parks differently,there is a common idea:the conservation of 'wild nature' for posterity and as a symbol of national pride. National parks are almost always open to visitors.
Rosa Louise McCauley Parks was an American activist in the civil rights movement best known for her pivotal role in the Montgomery bus boycott. The United States Congress has honored her as "the first lady of civil rights" and "the mother of the freedom movement". Parks became a NAACP activist in 1943,participating in several high-profile civil rights campaigns. On December 1,1955,in Montgomery,Alabama,Parks rejected bus driver James F. Blake's order to vacate a row of four seats in the "colored" section in favor of a White passenger,once the "White" section was filled. Parks was not the first person to resist bus segregation,but the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) believed that she was the best candidate for seeing through a court challenge after her arrest for civil disobedience in violating Alabama segregation laws,and she helped inspire the Black community to boycott the Montgomery buses for over a year. The case became bogged down in the state courts,but the federal Montgomery bus lawsuit Browder v. Gayle resulted in a November 1956 decision that bus segregation is unconstitutional under the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.

An amusement park is a park that features various attractions,such as rides and games,as well as other events for entertainment purposes. A theme park is a type of amusement park that bases its structures and attractions around a central theme,often featuring multiple areas with different themes.
