Answer:

A. Until about 1750, core areas of Europe India and China enjoyed similar levels of economic development

Explanation:

The notion that European culture is inherently more developed reflects and old ethnocentric belief that has been probed several times to be wrong.

Europeans lacked much of the development and borrowed it from other regions of the world.

For example, Chinese inventions (paper, print, silk) already formed part of the culture in Asia and India also showed important advances in science and technology.

The notion of Europeans being racially or naturally superior to other peoples has historically been a myth.

Until around 1750, both <em>India and China had a quality of life similar to Europeans and perhaps together they surpassed it already in our present time. </em>

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

Antonio de Montesinos or Antonio Montesino (c. 1475 - June 27, 1540) was a Spanish Dominican friar who was a missionary on the island of Hispaniola (now the Dominican Republic and Haiti). With the backing of Friar Pedro de Córdoba and his Dominican community at Santo Domingo, Montesinos was the first European to publicly denounce the enslavement and harsh treatment of the indigenous peoples of the island. His censure initiated an enduring struggle to reform the Spanish conduct towards all indigenous people in the New World. Montesinos' outspoken criticism influenced Bartolomé de las Casas to head the humane treatment of Indians movement.

1. World War I started in 1914, but the United States did not join until 1917. Explain two reasons why the United States finally
Katarina [22]

The United States finally decided to join the World War I on side of the Allies mainly because of the following 2 reasons:


* The first one was the proposal made to Mexico in order to join the war against the allies, which meant the war was getting closer to American land.


*   The second one was the German submarine attacks on American merchant ships.  

After these two events took place, Woodrow Wilson the American president at the time talked to the Congress and requested it to declare war on Germany. And finally the Congress declared the war on April 6th, 1917.
