By the third century, Christianity was well established in and around Greece and the Middle East, as well as in Rome, Alexandria, Carthage and a few cities such as Lyons in the 'barbarian' western Europe.
Christianity had largely failed to penetrate Egypt outside Alexandria, or much of western Europe. Even Italy, outside the city of Rome, seems to have largely resisted Christianity. It seems that the Egyptian and Celtic religions had not entered a period of decline and scepticism in the way that the Greco-Roman religion had done. However, there was no impediment to Christians preaching in those areas, other than a lack of interest on the part of the population.
Christian tradition suggests that the Christians suffered constant harrassment and persecution by the Roman authorities. However, Euan Cameron (Interpreting Christian History: The Challenge of the Churches' Past) says, "Contrary to popular tradition, the first three centuries of Christianity were not times of steady or consistent persecution. Persecution was sporadic, intermittent, and mostly local." Edward Gibbon (The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire) goes further and, on a number of occasions, praises the pagan Romans for their general tolerance towards Christianity. Widespread and persistent persecution of other faiths only really began with the Christian Empire.
There was a total of perhaps 12 years of official persecution of Christianity during nearly three hundred years in which Christianity existed in the pagan Empire. Otherwise, the Christians were largely allowed to worship as they pleased, and even to proselytise their faith, as long as they took care not to offend others or disturb the peace. This allowed Christianity to prosper and spread far and wide.
Hope this helps :)
Airplanes and chemical warfare were technological advances during world war 1.
The North had a population of 22 million people against the 9 million in the South (of whom almost half were slaves.)
The North was more industrial and produced 94 percent of the USA’s pig iron and 97 percent of its firearms. The North even had a richer, more varied agriculture than the South.
The Union had a larger navy, blocking all efforts from the Confederacy to trade with Europe.
The Confederacy hope that France and Britain would come to their aid due to their need of cotton, but these countries had enough cotton and a bigger need for Northern corn.
The North controlled both the shipping and railroad avenues, allowing them to trade and to get supplies fairly quickly.
The Union had more support: four slave states still remained loyal and not everybody in the 11 Confederate states were on the Confederate side. There were still plenty of people in the South that supported the Union.
Many slaves fled to the Union armies, providing even more manpower.
The South squandered their resources early in the war by focussing on conventional offensives instead of non-conventional raids on the Union’s transportation and communication infrastructure.
Lee’s offensive war strategy had a high cost in casualties, destroying a large part of the Confederate army.
La respuesta correcta a esta pregunta es B)Es observar, escuchar, conocer y compartir las tradiciones y costumbres de culturas diferentes a la mía y valorarlas.
Cuando hablamos sobre interculturalidad, nos referimos a "observar, escuchar, conocer y compartir las tradiciones y costumbres de culturas diferentes a la mía y valorarlas."
La interculturalidad nos permite mostrar respeto por las diferentes culturas y formas de pensar de otros países y regiones. Eso también fomenta la tolerancia entre los países, ya que invita a que sepamos escuchar con atención la manera en la que una persona que piensa y vive diferente a mi, con objeto de entender la diversidad que tenemos como humanos. Si respetamos y ponemos atención a las costumbres, tradiciones, idea, y cultura de los demás, y ellos hacen lo mismo con nosotros, aprenderemos muchas cosas pero también nos daremos cuenta que en el fondo, los humanos somos muy similares.
The progressive reforms were prompted by the progressives who included men and women who fought against ruthless big business and corporations, trusts and political machines and called for reforms to combat the evils of child labor, poor working conditions, health and safety, squalid living conditions, the rights of women and minority groups, unfair business practices and consumer protection.
