Darius, who ruled from 521-486 BCE. Darius used military might to expand the Persian Empire into northwest India to the Indus River, and in the process conquered Thrace, Macedonia, and the western coast of the Black Sea. Under Darius' rule, the population reached 35 million, which was the largest empire in the world at that time. To keep control over such a large empire, Darius instituted a centralized the government, and built a new capital at Persepolis. Darius was an important ruler because under his rule the Persian empire became the largest in the world, and also because Persepolis served as the center of the Persian Empire even after Darius' decline. After Darius came Xerxes, who ruled from 486-465 BCE. Unlike Darius, Xerxes was not a tolerant ruler, and he imposed his policy on the lands he had conquered. This caused much unrest, particularly in Mesopotamia and Egypt. Despite the unrest Xerxes managed to suppress rebels and maintain order, but not forever. Xerxes was important because the unrest caused by his intolerance brought about problems for emperors later in the Achaemenid Empire.

The Ancient Fertile Crescent and Mesopotamia - The Hebrews and the Neo-Babylonian Empire

In this chapter we will learn about the Hebrews and Chaldeans (Neo-Babylonians), two groups of people whose histories became intertwined.

The Ancient Hebrews (2,000s – 586 BCE)

The Hebrews are named after their language called Hebrew, Hebrew is a Semitic language. The ancient Hebrews were nomadic people who moved throughout the Fertile Crescent, finally settling in a place called Canaan. The Hebrews are a resilient people; while the Sumerian, Akkadian, Babylonian and Assyrian cultures have ended, the Hebrew culture continues to this day, and has had a lasting impact on our world; this despite the Hebrews being scattered, enslaved, and persecuted throughout their history. Today their religion is known as Judaism.

A belief in one god (monotheism) forbid the Hebrews from worshipping any other gods. Abraham marks the beginning of Hebrew history. Abraham lived in Ur, where his father was a seller of idols. Abraham rejected his father's gods and goddesses, he believed in only one god. Abraham and his wife Sarah left Ur. According to Abraham, his god promised him and his followers a land they could call their own. Abraham eventually settled in a land called Canaan.

As a factory owner during the industrial revolution, write a letter to a newspaper justifying working conditions in your factory

omeli [17]

Answer:

Dear daily news telegraph.

My name is John Smith, and I am a factory owner from Manchester. I am aware that one of your reporters visited my factory, and interviewed some of my workers, and claimed that working conditions in my factory are horrible.

Let me tell you what would be horrible: having my workers unemployed, wandering the streets, begging for food and shelter, because they simply have no other option left. They used to be farmers, but they are not needed in the countryside anymore, and they do not have any land of their own either. Without my factory, their living conditions would be harder.

For this reason, I would appreciate if your reporter visited my factory and had a guided visit, like this I would be able to explain in more extensive temrs why living conditions in my factory are not horrible at all.

Sincerely

John Smith, owner of Textiles XYZ

Manchester, England.
