So I choose Hinduism
Origin: India where it comprises  several and varied systems of philosophy, belief, and <span>ritual
Major Principals: That </span> All human beings are divine and should be treated as such.Respect other religions and have Religious harmony. Have a unity of existence through love Most Hindus should have the Knowledge of 3 Gs: Ganga (sacred rivers), Gita (sacred script), Gayatri (sacred mantra).God is everywhere and is called om. God is in the form of several other gods.The Holy Trinity is extremely important and is the basis for all cultures:<span> Brahma, Vishnu, Maheshwara (Shiva<span>).
</span></span>Effects: <span>Hindu ideas about karma and reincarnation helped the caste system. If a person was born as an upper-caste a Brahmin, warrior/merchant-his good fortune was said to come from good karma earned in a former life. However, a person who was born as a female, a laborer/ untouchable might be getting the results of bad deeds in a former life and was treated badly. Earlier many believed that only men (upper-class) could attain Moksha (which is eternal bliss) Because of these many laws which barred untouchables from entering religious sites and forcing them to work in shabby huts and earn less were created. Many Hindus celebrate special festivals such as Holi which have a religious meaning. One culture was that females who wanted good lives for the husbands fasted for their long life. Hinduism did influence Buddhism (which also was created in India) and many parts of Arabic and Hindu culture were fused after the Mughal occupation of India. Thankfully in the 1900's the caste system was eradicated for being unjust but it had caused many damages for thousands of poor people. Hindus are known for not eating certain types of meat on certain days. Hindus (most of them) do not touch beef because cows are sacred.Most Hindus are vegetarians although the few that aren't are strict on what days they can eat meat and what days have religious importance. (so they don't eat meat) Hope this helps!</span>

1. What qualifies<br> someone to be a chief in the League of Five Nations?
mash [69]

Answer:

The Iroquois view of nature was based on sharing and cooperation. They took that same attitude into their daily life, history, and government. Because of their attitude, they were able to accomplish something spectacular, something that had never been done before. They were able to form the League of Nations.

Legend says... Once upon a time, there was a Mohawk leader named Hiawatha. He was tired of the endless fighting between the five nations. He wanted things to change. One day, he met a great Iroquois speaker named Dekanawida.

Dekanawida convinced him that the way to bring peace was to form a new nation, a single Iroquois Nation, where all five nations would have a voice in government, so that things could be solved peacefully.

"We bind ourselves together by taking hold of each other's hands so firmly and forming a circle so strong that if a tree should fall upon it, it could not shake nor break it, so that our people and grandchildren shall remain in the circle of security, peace, and happiness."

And so it was done. Each of the five great Iroquois Nations banded together to form the League of Nations.

hope i helped !!
