Make points from this...

The Mali Empire (1240-1645 CE) of West Africa was founded by Sundiata Keita (r. 1230-1255 CE) following his victory over the kingdom of Sosso (c. 1180-1235 CE). Sundiata’s centralised government, diplomacy and well-trained army permitted a massive military expansion which would pave the way for a flourishing of the Mali Empire, making it the largest yet seen in Africa. The reign of Mansa Musa I (1312-1337 CE) saw the empire reach new heights in terms of territory controlled, cultural fluorescence, and the staggering wealth brought through Mali’s control of regional trade routes. Acting as a middle-trader between North Africa via the Sahara desert and the Niger River to the south, Mali exploited the traffic in gold, salt, copper, ivory, and slaves that crisscrossed West Africa. Muslim merchants were attracted to all this commercial activity, and they converted Mali rulers who in turn spread Islam via such noted centres of learning as Timbuktu. In contrast to cities like Niani (the capital), Djenne, and Gao, most of the rural Mali population remained farmers who clung to their traditional animist beliefs. The Mali Empire collapsed in the 1460s CE following civil wars, the opening up of trade routes elsewhere, and the rise of the neighbouring Songhai Empire, but it did continue to control a small part of the western empire into the 17th century CE.

Jefferson notes that “all men created equal”, suggesting that this was “self evident”. What is meant by this statement
aliina [53]

Jefferson wrote all men are equal which meant that people were born with some inalienable rights like right to live free without being under the control of others.  

Although in reality, Thomas Jefferson had many slaves under his control and he had progeny from one of his slaves. That statement proclaimed that every individual has to be included regardless of race, religion or gender.  

But when he wrote ‘All men are equal”, he may have not considered women and slaves. It may sound hypocritical but it has taken more than a century to really internalize the meaning of equality.

Which of the following events occurred after Great Britain ended its occupation of India and partitioned off parts of the empire
mylen [45]

The correct answer is: The partitioned areas became the countries of Pakistan and, eventually, Bangladesh.

The dominion of the British crown in the Indian subcontinent ended in 1947, after which the former territory of the British Raj was partitioned into the regions of India, Western Pakistan, Eastern Pakistan (Bengal), Western Bengal, and Punjab. In this context, there were violent uprisings and conflicts between religious groups that ended with the life of around 200 000 and 2 million people. 14 million Hindus, Muslims, and Sikhs were displaced in what is known as the largest mass migration in the history of humanity.

Indian Muslims were organized around the political leader Muhammad Ali Jinnah and the Muslim League of India, and they believed that the Muslims of India should have their own country. This new country was labeled as Pakistan, which in Urdu means "the land of the pure." Pakistan encompassed its current territory plus Bengal, which was called Eastern Pakistan. This last region became an independent country in 1971 under the name of Bangladesh.

What are some responsibilities of a nation expanding their territories?
Y_Kistochka [10]

By increasing demand through monetary and fiscal stimulus, expansionary policy aims to stimulate an economy. The goal of expansionary policy is to stop or lessen economic downturns and recessions.

<h3>How do countries expand their territories?</h3>

State-collapse When the stated purpose of expansionism is to retake lost territory or seize ancestral lands, anarchy, reunification, or pan-nationalism are occasionally used to excuse and legitimise it.

Imperialism is the governmental policy, practise, or advocacy of expanding power and dominion, particularly through direct territorial acquisition or by seizing control of other areas and peoples on a political and economic level.

Economic, strategic, religious, and political factors are the four main drivers of imperialism. With the aid of these motivations, powerful empires were able to conquer new lands and introduce fresh cultures and languages to both the colonised nations and the nations that were doing the colonising.
