Answer: c. implementing modernizing reforms that helped his country withstand Western incursions.

Explanation:

Chulalongkorn was King of Siam (now Thailand) from October 1, 1868 until his death on October 23, 1910, after which he was called Rama V. He was the fifth king of the Chakri dynasty of Thailand and is considered one of the greatest sovereigns this country has had for its efforts to modernize it to prevent it from becoming a European colony, as it had happened with neighboring countries.

As an example of his achievements, highlights the fact that he hired foreign experts to teach Thai people the necessary knowledge to deal with the different areas of government, education and life style of the new Westernized model he was implementing. However, <u>he was careful to hire professionals of different nationalities for each task so that no country would achieve enough power to challenge his authority and try to colonize the kingdom.</u>

worty [1.4K]

Answer:

Reinhard Heydrich ordered the immediate annihilation of Jews and Communist officials in the conquered Soviet territories; he headed the Gestapo, directed the concentration of Polish Jews into ghettos, and convened the notorious Wannsee conference to announce the Final Solution. He had his hand in every significant anti-Jewish action in Nazi Europe until his assassination by Czech resistance fighters in June 1942. Had he survived that attack, he would in all likelihood have continued to pilot the Nazi destruction of European Jewry to the bitter end

Five to ten sentences, describe how Islam and Christianity have impacted the world in positive ways?
rjkz [21]

Christianity and Islam are the two largest religions in the world and share a historical and traditional connection, with some major theological differences. The two faiths share a common place of origin in the Middle East, and consider themselves to be monotheistic.

The  effect of the spread of Islam was an increase in trade.  Unlike early Christianity, Muslims were not reluctant to engage in trade and profit; Muhammad himself was a merchant.  As new areas were drawn into the orbit of Islamic civilisation, the new religion provided merchants with a safe context for trade.  The application of sharia—Islamic law derived from the Koran—ensured a certain measure of uniformity in the application of criminal justice.  Sharia law protected commerce and imposed stiff punishments for theft and dishonesty.  Muslim jurists called qadis were established to resolve disputes through the application of sharia.  Merchants were thus provided with a forum for making complaints and having them resolved in a consistent and systematic way.  Trade and travel were not as risky or perilous as before and both thrived with the coming of Islam.
