A) Identify ONE historical process in South or Southeast Asia that accounts for the religion of the Srivijaya merchants in Quanz

hou, as reported in the passage.
b) Explain ONE aspect of the economic development of China under the Song dynasty that led to the flourishing of commerce that is reflected in the passage.
c) Explain ONE way in which the author’s point of view, purpose, or intended audience may have influenced his assessment of the events described in the passage.



“There are scores of rich Muslim merchants from the Kingdom of Srivijaya [in Southeast Asia] who are living or were born in our city of Quanzhou [in southern China]. Among them is a man called Shi Nuowei, who is a Muslim. He is famous for his generosity among his fellow foreign residents in Quanzhou. The building of a cemetery for foreign merchants is but one of his many generous deeds. This cemetery project was first proposed by another Srivijaya foreigner, but he died before he could finish it. Shi then built the cemetery on the hillside to the east of the city. The cemetery is covered with a roof, enclosed by a wall, and safely locked at night. All foreign merchants who die in Quanzhou are to be buried there.
Shi’s kind deed allows the foreign merchants in our city to not have to worry about being able to be buried according to the requirements of their own religions. Shi’s kindness will certainly promote overseas trade and encourage more foreigners to come to Quanzhou, where they could live and conduct their business in harmony. I have included this story here so that news of it will be widely circulated overseas.”
Lin Zhiqi, Chinese government customs inspector in the port of Quanzhou, description of the city and its surroundings, circa 1170

Answer:

a) an empire that emerged in Palembang, Indonesia in the 7th century was the "Srivijaya". It was also keen on its faith, Mahayana Buddhism, in addition to concentrating on foreign sea trade. It also had an active commercial relationship with the Middle East-based Islamic Caliphate. Trading with various individuals inspired the empire to incorporate some of the customs and rituals that were studied. This is why Muslims, as mentioned in the passage, also make up the religion

b)One aspect of the economic development of China under the Song Dynasty which led to the flourishing of commerce was the increased number of commercial contacts that China had in the global market. With this, many merchants were eager to trade overseas. The passage mentioned "foreign merchants" and such merchants included the rich Muslims from the Kingdom of Srivijaya. This was considered a breakthrough in China's early modern economy.

c)The purpose of the author is to attract more foreign merchants into the city of Quanzhou. He wanted to let them know that if they conduct their business in Quanzhou, they will be given the utmost respect and priority. He also wanted to show his gratefulness to the merchants coming from the Kingdom of Srivijaya, thus he mentioned the deed of Shi Nuowei.

As said in the reading Shi Nuowei built a cemetery for foreign merchants to be buried in a safe spot and they won’t have to worry about being able to be buried according to the requirements of their own religions.

The kindness of Shi helped with promoting overseas trade and encourage more foreigners to come to Quanzhou, where they could live and conduct their business in harmony. As said in the reading

He is trying to show how this is a good place for foreigners so he is only showing what good things there are and disregards the bad things.

In two to three paragraphs, hypothesize about the effect the local topography had on the wars. In what ways did the Vietnamese a
dolphi86 [110]
Vietnam is located in the southeastern extremity of the Indochinese peninsula and occupies about 331,688 square kilometers, of which about 25 % was under cultivation in 1987. It borders the Gulf of Thailand, Gulf of Tonkin, and South China Sea, alongside China, Laos, and Cambodia. The S-shaped country has a South China Sea, alongside China, Laos, and Cambodia. The physical geography of Vietnam played an instrumental role during the war as the terrain and climate offered many challenges to the American forces. Vietnam is part of the Indochinese Peninsula which stretches 1,650 meters from north to south. Vietnam shares a border with China, Laos, and Cambodia. The country is very hilly as only 20% of Vietnam is level land. The highest peak in Vietnam is Fan Si Pan at 3,142 meters located in the extreme northwest of the Highlands. 


The country of Vietnam is segmented into eight different regions: Northeast, Northwest, Red River Delta, North Central Coast, South Central Coast, Central Highlands, Southeast, and the Mekong River Delta. Within these regions are various physical geographical features which make up the uniqueness of Vietnam. In the Mekong River Delta lies a flat, but fertile plain called the Southern Lowland. In the North, the Red River Delta is also a flat plain called the Tonkin Lowland. The Annam Cordillera mountain range starts in the north and runs south along the Laos/Vietnam border where it spreads out to form the Central Highlands. The South Central Coast lies between the Annam Cordillera range and the South China Sea. 
Using these regions will bring a sense of spatiality to where the significant hills in Vietnam were located. 


<span>The vegetation is highly diversified across the country reflecting the changes in climate and soils throughout the country. Evergreen and deciduous forests are the most abundant especially in the Central Highlands. Other types of vegetation include: mangroves, bamboo, teak, palms, and elephant grass, which was tall razor sharp grass, found in the highlands of Vietnam. Troops had to advance through these types of vegetation as they advanced up the hills, often slowing them down. The vegetation provided great cover as well for the North Vietnamese Army (NVA) as they could easily conceal themselves from airstrikes and encroaching infantry units. </span>

13) Order the early World War II events in chronological order.
Airida [17]

Answer:

3, 5, 2, 4, 1

Explanation:

The Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact was signed a few days before the invasion of Poland which gave Germany and the USSR a Non-aggression Pact between each other and split Poland between their countries. Shortly after the invasion of Poland, Britain and France had declared war on Germany. Germany had taken the old Schlieffen Plan idea and also used the "Blitzkrieg" tactic to push through Belgium and into France in terrifying speed. This had forced the French and British along the Northern side of the country to slowly retreat as they were being surrounded by German panzer divisions. They eventually trapped them in the port city of Dunkirk with most of the British Army waiting on the beaches for any naval support. Then the ships arrived from England which saved 3338,000 British mainly and French troops before the Germans closed in on them.
