Taj Mahal was built by Shah Jehan as a kind of tribute that was made towards his late wife  called Mumtaz Mahal.

It took <u>20,000</u> people <u>22 </u>years to build the Taj Mahal.

After Shah Jahan suffered a stroke, his four sons began to fight/contest for the throne while he was sick.

Today the Taj Mahal remains one of the most <u> beautiful structural compositions</u>  and   <u>world's most iconic monuments, new Seven Wonders of the World.</u>

Identify a main difference between socialism and capitialism
maksim [4K]

A major difference between socialism and capitalism resides in how likely meritocracy is to flourish .

Socialism, in its rightest essence, would ensure that every individual within society enjoyed the same opportunities at the core (quality health, food, education). Naturally, some of these subjects would thrive more than others and therefore be promoted by society to hold higher levels of responsability and reward.  

However, the lesser gifted would never be at a disadvantage. They could still count on standard quality support by the same society and equal opportunity for their offspring to pursue their own ambitions.

On the contrary, capitalism creates a societal gap by supporting inherited advantage. In summary, a capitalist society provides better core opportunities for a group of citizens and their offspring regardless of their innate ambitions. The disadvataged group and their offspring then receive a less than standard core support which predisposes them for hardship in the pursue of societal reward.
