L--the new capital was St. Petersburg.
This city was obtained from war with Sweden and gave Peter the Great and Russia access to a warm-water port on the Baltic Sea. He believed Russia needed a modern capital with the ability to trade with the West.
Spanish colonies begin to allow more heavily on the Atlantic slave trade by the mid 1500s in a few reasons. Before Spain aggressive act, Latin American civilization prosper. These four main ones was Inca, Aztec, Maya, and Olmec. After Spain found them, everything changes. They began to colonize them. Even though they are Latin’s most richest civilizations, they couldn’t defeat them. Why? Because they lacked technology compared to Spain’s military weapons and such. Which the start of economienda began. A same thing for mercantilism. And social class develops. However as they colonize the whole South America, they used tons of Hispanics to work for them. But as the disease transmitted to them, more and more people died and the population decreases. As the disease had gotten to them, Spain was in desperate situation. The reason is because without those people, their colonization would be crumpled into pieces and they need to someone to continue their colonization. So they turned to the Africans. Where they need them to prosper their colonization.
The Chaldean Empire began on 605 B.C. and they claimed many lands that once belonged to the Assyrians, but Egypt was not one of them.
By the time that the Chaldean Empire started, it also started an alliance between the Assyrians and Egyptians to fight the Babylonians.
They both had their armies destroyed. Assyria was never to be recognized again as an independent power and Egypt retreated, becoming insignificant for a while.
Egypt used Greek mercenaries to get rid of the domain that the Assyrians had over them and they did go through a prosper time, but it for the Persians to show up and dominate them in the 500s B.C.
Answer:
To persuade readers about the unjust treatment of the African Americans.
Explanation:
"What to the Slaves is the Fourth of July?" is a speech given by Frederick Douglass on the occasion of July 5th, 1852 in Rochester, New York. In it, he emphasized on the American independence celebration which grips the whole nation but the African American community (slaves) did not actually have a cause for celebration. They are still chained and bounded to their initial status and have not experienced any form of freedom.
Douglass was also a former slave but earned his freedom and got an education, later becoming an abolitionist and worked for the freedom of his people. He delivered this speech during the Rochester Ladies' Anti-Slavery Society's meeting. In it, he called upon the injustice that the slaves are facing, while the nation is celebrating "its" freedom. Though the label "nation" includes each and everyone living in the country, and that that freedom is for all, the slaves are still bounded to their position and no one seems to care. His anti-slavery speech became one of the most important works for the abolitionist, including his autobiography. To him, it is ironic that America is celebrating her independence from being under the colonialist rule of Britain, a form of slavery but at the same time, still kept slaves themselves. The slavery system that was still prevalent and in practice even after the independence was what made him question the American people. The one reason/ purpose he most likely wrote this speech was to persuade the readers (audience) about the unjust treatment of the African Americans.
The most traumatic era in the entire history of Roman Catholicism, some have argued, was the period from the middle of the 14th century to the middle of the 16th. This was the time when Protestantism, through its definitive break with Roman Catholicism, arose to take its place on the Christian map. It was also the period during which the Roman Catholic Church, as an entity distinct from other “branches” of Christendom, even of Western Christendom, came into being.
The spectre of many national churches supplanting a unitary Catholic church became a grim reality during the age of the Reformation. What neither heresy nor schism had been able to do before—divide Western Christendom permanently and irreversibly—was done by a movement that confessed a loyalty to the orthodox creeds of Christendom and professed an abhorrence for schism. By the time the Reformation was over, a number of new Christian churches had emerged and the Roman Catholic Church had come to define its place in the new order.
