would it have been possible for speakers of indo-european languages to spread so widely without the aid of domesticated horses?
umka21 [38]
No, the vast distances that existed between civilizations and the physical terrain (mountainous) that separated them were too great for humans to cross.  Journeys and trade routes would have taken years to cross.  Horses shortened these travels times and made journeys more survivable, as such the people were able to expand.

Were Gandhi and the American colonists fighting for similar values in their pushes for independence? Explain if they were, or we
kipiarov [429]
Yes because back then, India was a colony of England and basically owned by a company called the East India company with military enforcement. The people had no representation and also were forced to pay taxes such as the salt tax that ghandi famously went against during the salt March.
Likewise, the united states back then was also a colony of India and had no representation as well as had to pay taxes from laws such as the stamp act. Their values in fighting for independence and free reign were very similar. So yes.
