How is the geography of the Mayan civilization different from the geography of the Mesopotamian civilization?
garik1379 [7]

Answer: Both have important elements of civilization in common — among the earliest of written languages, a network of interconnected cities, cooperating and conflicting, formalized government and religion, and so on — but these were very different civilizations, not least for geographical and climatological reasons.

Mesopotamia is a complex example of a river valley civilization — complex because it consists of not one river, but two, the Tigris and the Euphrates, but still I think we can call this a paradigm case of a river valley civilization. We also know that the earliest origins of civilization emerged here, or nearby (Anatolia may be the ultimate point of origin for civilization in this geographical region). The deep history of civilization originating in this region has meant repeated bifurcations in the history of the region, hence cultural and civilizational complexity.

The origins of Mayan civilization are as yet not sufficiently known to determine whether Mayan civilization was completely autonomous in its origins, or if the idea of civilization came to Mesoamerica by way of idea diffusion from the earliest sources of settled neolithic agriculture in the Rio Balsas valley (where corn originated in what is now southern Mexico). Whether or not a civilization emerged autonomously is not always a central question, but in the case of Mayan civilization it should be a central question, because one of the most distinctive things about Mayan civilization is that it is a civilization of a tropical rainforest. Most autonomously emerging civilizations appeared in river valleys, but Mayan civilization appeared and flourished in the jungles of Mesoamerica. There are few other examples of civilizations of the tropical rainforest in the world, the Khmer civilization being another, but in the case of the Khmer we know that it did not originate autonomously, as it comes much later in history when the idea of civilization was already diffused in Indochina.

Chief Joseph says, "I know that my race must change." What changes do you think he is referring to?
allochka39001 [22]

Chief Joseph was a leader of the Wallowa band of Nez Perce, of the interior Pacific Northwest region of the U. S. in the later half of the 18th century. The following quote is attributed to him:

<em>“I know that my race must change. We cannot hold our own with the white men as we are. We only ask an even chance to live as other men live. We ask to be recognized as men. We ask that the same law shall work alike on all men. If an Indian breaks the law, punish him by the law. If a white man breaks the law, punish him also.” </em>

In this quote, Chief Joseph is referring to the changes that the Europeans brought with them, and that the Aboriginal people were forced to adopt. Forced removal from their ancestral lands, the adoption of English language and European traditions, their loss of political power, and their reduced freedom are some of the changes that the tribes had to suffer through. In this quote, Chief Joseph says that the Indigenous people are unable to resist these changes or to fight against them. However, they still want equal rights and treatment in this new society they are forced to subscribe to, particularly under the law.

What was the goal of the confederate forces? John brown
faust18 [17]

The goal of the Confederate forces was to obtain their independence from the North and continue using slavery.

During this time, the Southern states were focused on agriculture, while the Northern states were focused on industrialization. The South would have plantations where they would grow cash crops, such as indigo and tobacco. These cash crops would sell for a lot of money overseas, but they needed manpower in order to produce more. This is why they were so adamant about keeping slavery, which they felt the North would try to take away from them. With Abraham Lincoln winning the election, this only caused them to worry more.

This made the South secede, or rebel against the Union. They wanted to be independent from the Union and felt as if they were not being heard or listened to. They strongly believed that the Union, along with Abraham Lincoln, would try to abolish slavery, which would cause them to lose income.
