Young, light skin, female virgins were the most frequently bought slave due to their popularity among countries in the near East.

Light Skin women were seen as more beautiful and virgins were thought to be more 'pure'

These young women would first work in the households of rich people. If they were popular they would become a concubine and in many cases eventually a wife of their master.

To what extent was the war for independence also a revolution?
aev [14]

Answer:

It was as radical and social as any revolution in history, but it was radical and social in a very special eighteenth-century sense. No doubt many of the concerns and much of the language of that premodern, pre-Marxian eighteenth century were almost entirely political.

The Revolutionary War (1775-83), also known as the American Revolution, arose from growing tensions between residents of Great Britain's 13 North American colonies and the colonial government, which represented the British crown.

Tom [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

The correct answer is - B: during industrialization in China, the government controlled peoples jobs and access to products.

The communism and its principles have their basis in the self-sustaining. The governments that were following this ideology felt that in order to achieve that they have to control everything in the country, as well as plan everything in the country and for the people's needs.

One of the things that the communist governments did was that they were controlling the peoples jobs, how much they will work, where they will work, and in which manner they will work, usually without any option for progress in a career level. Also, the government was controlling the access of the people to the products, as its politics was that everyone should have certain amount of certain things and that's it, nothing more is needed, and nothing more will be allowed to be taken.
