  SPICE GIRLS 
  THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA AND CURIOUS FACTS COLLECTION 
    
  CREATED BY TRIVIA HUB 
    
  The Spice Girls are a British girl group formed in 1994, consisting of Mel B, Melanie C, Emma Bunton, Geri Halliwell, and Victoria Beckham. They were formed to compete with popular boy bands. With their "girl power" mantra, they redefined the girl-group concept by targeting a young female fan base. Their debut single "Wannabe" topped the charts in 37 countries. The album Spice (1996) sold over 23 million copies worldwide. The group's success was compared to Beatlemania, with the press calling it "Spicemania". The group was known for their dance-pop music, female empowerment themes, and individual nicknames. 
    
  CURIOUS FACT SAMPLES: 
    
  The Spice Girls were formed in 1994 after Heart Management held auditions to create a girl group to compete with popular British boy bands. The group was originally envisioned to comprise "five strikingly different girls" who would each appeal to a different audience.  
    
  The group initially practiced songs written by Bob Herbert's associates, but these songs were never used by the Spice Girls because they were aimed at a very young audience. The group felt insecure without an official contract, which led them to seek a showcase performance that resulted in a major label deal.  
    
  The Spice Girls, frustrated with their management, allegedly stole the master recordings of their music from Heart Management before leaving. They then tracked down a songwriter from the showcase and began recording demos for their debut album.

  With housing costs in Ireland the highest in the EU, the property ladder has been kicked from under thousands. So how did we get here … and how do we break the cycle?

  The Theory Of The Kingdom - A...

  This original monograph presents a comprehensive theory regarding the economy of the kingdom of God. The theory and associated model will help individuals make better choices. The research integrates fundamentals of the temporal real economy, and the permanent economy of the kingdom of God, to present a unified model of human agency. According to the model, effective agents are salt and light in the real economy, arresting corruption and revealing the truth. Effective agency produces life, peace and growth. Individual and organizational practices that arrest corruption and reveal truth can resolve longstanding economic grievances.  
  The list of spiritual credence goods individuals may receive is extensive and include commonly known virtues such as humility, patience and hope. Spiritual goods are allocated based on the owner-agent relationship. The quantity of goods the owner supplies is in proportion to an individual's sacrificial offering of time and money. Spiritual goods are stored as heart capital. In a process analogous to the real economy, heart labor applied to heart capital produces desirable outputs. The owner relates to his agents through a heart-inscribed behavioral contract. The owner generally intervenes in the real economy by communicating with agents rather by restricting choice. Prior studies across economics, finance and sociology prove the efficiency of behavioral contracts and communication over restricted choice.  
  Herein researchers will find new testable propositions, and practitioners will find new ideas and practices to live better, more consequential lives. Examples of practical applications include methods of resolving group level bias and understanding the purpose of life's difficulties.
