Why was the kennedy administration nicknamed camelot

History
1 answer:
Bingel [31]4 years ago
4 0
The idea of "Camelot" called to mind an ideal sort of place, almost like a fairy tale existence.  The original "Camelot," of course, was the court of the fabled King Arthur of England and his Knights of the Round Table.

Jackie Kennedy, the wife and then widow of President John F. Kennedy, is the one who originated the reference to the Kennedy time in the White House as "Camelot."  She made that reference in an interview for LIFE magazine after her husband's assassination.  She was trying to call to mind the high, idealistic principles of King Arthur of Camelot, comparing that to what her husband JFK had wanted to accomplish as president.

3. How do you think Buddhism would change as it travels to<br><br> Timbuktu (Mali Empire, Africa)?
taurus [48]

Answer:

Not much

Explanation:

Buddhism, like Christianity and Islam, is a missionary religion. Between 500 BC and 500 AD it spread relatively easy from North India to the rest of India, South East Asia, Indonesia, China and Japan. One major feature of a missionary religion is that it is pretty sure of itself and therefore quite inmune to other religions, therefore quite inmune to change.

Once crossed the Middle East and the whole of North Africa it hypothetically could have rooted in the Manding or Mali Empire (roughly from 1200 to 1600), because their kings, although converted to Islam, didn´t force their subject to the same religion.
