Answer:

The two biggest causes of the Trans-Saharan trade included:

1. Introduction of Camels to the Sahara

2. Expansion of Islam in the area

Explanation:

The introduction of camels in the Sahara region provided a safe, reliable transport system throughout the land. Unlike a horse or a cattle, camels could go days without the need to drink or eat.

This made, long journeys possible and a network of small taverns and trading posts sprung up.

As Islam grew in the region, small cities and villages in the area came under the protection of a single government. This provided peace and prosperity in the region, a single currency, and common laws, all factors that contribute towards economic success.

Opinion Question: Are the Progressive movements calls for government regulation of business justified?

pashok25 [27]

This is one of those questions that you should always qualify by stating that it is a fact specific inquiry.

Depending on the facts presented, a progressive movement's calls for government regulation may be justified if the facts presented show that the call is justified.

If business is routinely defrauding citizens and ignoring tax law, then a progressive movement is right to call for regulation.

If the regulation is poorly written, then the progressive movement should be calling for better regulation and not new regulation.
