Allow me to add some detail about what the "Counter-Reformation" was. The Catholic Reformation or Counter-Reformation was an effort by the Roman Catholic Church in the 16th century, intended to strengthen itself in response to the Protestant Reformation. The Counter-Reformation included a number of features, such as:
- The formation of religious orders that aimed to build allegiance to Rome and the papacy, and to educate people in Catholic teaching. The Society of Jesus, known as the Jesuits for short, was a key order of this sort. The order was founded by Ignatius of Loyola in 1534, along with Francis Xavier and several others.
- The Council of Trent served to reform some abuses that were acknowledged by the Catholic Church, but mostly to assert the full authority of Roman power and doctrine over the Protestant threat. The Council of Trent held meetings over a span of years from 1545 to 1563.
- The Roman Inquisition was founded in 1542 to act as an investigative body in regard to threats to Rome's teachings. About a century later, Galileo would be one of the most famous persons tried by the Roman Inquisition.
Two things happened, THhe Orient-Express and The Brooklyn Bridge
The Orient-Express, The Orient-Express began
running between Paris and Constantinople in 1883, and covered France,
Germany, Austria, Hungary, Romania and Bulgaria. It had been built by
the Belgian Georges Nagelmackers, whose company La Compagnie
Internationale des Wagons-Lits et des Grands Express Européens had
provided the carriages. Its fabled luxuries included Oriental rugs,
velvets, mahogany and fine cuisine. The original journeys were completed
by ferry across the southern Black Sea (from Varna to Constantinople).
Brooklyn Bridge, The Brooklyn Bridge is one of
the oldest suspension bridges in the United States. Connecting the New
York City boroughs of Manhattan and Brooklyn by spanning the East River
and when it was opened in 1883 it was the largest suspension bridge in
the world and had taken 13 years to complete.
Answer:
A native African (particularly, the Afrikaners) would agree on his statement since Cecil Rhodes supported them by teaching Dutch in schools and remove their legal disabilities. He also allowed self-governance on the Cape Colony.
Explanation:
Cecil Rhodes was a controversial, ruthless imperialist who wanted to expand the British imperial control from South Africa to Egypt. It was his long-time dream to create British Empire in new locations.
When he became the Prime Minister of "Cape Colony," he introduced the "Glen Grey Act." It was meant to put the black people into labor in order to pave way to industrialization. He wanted them to know that <em>the white people were a superior race than the black. </em>Since he worked well with the native Africans, his idea was received well.
So, this explains the answer.
