The Byzantine Empire was the only classical empire that survived into the postclassical period. Why did it survive when all the

madam [21]

Answer: the Byzantines were able to maintain their main areas. There were no attacks by tribal or pastoral people on Anatolia or Egypt, and just a few in the Black Sea region. For the most part the Byzantine Empire was not an expansionist empire, and this gave it more stability.

The tax system and the bureaucracy were already in place, and the bureaucracy acted as a check on the nobility. It was good way for them to earn reputation by serving in the government. Under Justinian, a law code was created. It came directly from the emperor, establishing him as the ultimate authority on justice. This was an important check on the power of the nobility as well , helping to keep them from growing powerful enough to attempt to take over the central government. It gave the imperial office a lot of authority and prestige.

Outside of Constantinople we see evidence of a strong agricultural economy. Although there were many large urban areas, the vast majority of the empire was made up of agricultural villages. They were the primary tax source and they supplied grain and agricultural products to the urban populations. At the same time, the Byzantines were the best economy in the region. They were the major trading power in the Mediterranean. They produced goods like textiles (especially silk), jewelry, and other crafts, but they also acted as the middleman for trade between east and west.

A growing cultural identity and social unity. The elements of this unity included, first and foremost, a long-lasting Roman identity. Byzantines believed they were keeping in the glorious Roman tradition, and they always presented themselves this way. Constantinople was also an important item of Byzantine unity. It was seen as the greatest city in the Mediterranean world and had overcame dozens of attacks. It was also portrayed as a whole Christian city, even if this wasn't actually true. There were lots of different kinds of Christians, plus Jews and later Muslims.

What are your thoughts about the media? please list pros and cons

Mars2501 [29]

Answer: Like everything, social media use has pros and cons.

Pros:

You meet people on social media you’d never have a chance to meet offline. You network with like-minded people from all walks of life.

Social media is educational. When I find content shared on social media I want to reference in blog posts or learn new information for blog posts I’m writing, I read it.

Social media is informative. For instance, I learn about trending news on Twi.tter.

Social media can be profitable. In fact, I’ve sold books on Twi.tter.

Social media is great for lead generation. I promote my email list all the time on Insta.gram and Twi.tter.

Social media is fun! I get out my creative side by making Insta.gram Stories, and the Stickers and GIFs are cute.

Free tools exist to help you. In fact, Buffer posts at optimal times. Free graphic design tools help you make appealing graphics.

Cons:

Social media is addictive.

Social media drains time.

Social media can be costly. I keep shopping! Also, if you pay for a boost in content visibility, it’s not free. Tools can be pricey as well.

Social media can have rules. Insta.gram bans people for 3rd-party app use and Qu.ora criticizes people if they link they’re link dropping and not helping.

Hope this helps...... Stay safe and have a Merry Christmas!!!!!!!! :D

Which event hampered the navy's growth during the 1800's?

lyudmila [28]

The correct answer is either manifest destiny or the civil war

Because of the civil war and the expenses of maintaining a navy that could blockade Confederate ports, the Navy was constantly losing power and ships and after the war ended most of the 700 initial ships were completely out of service. As manifest destiny and reconstruction began spreading, the government did not focus on rebuilding its navy and a large part of the navy that remained had to focus on things like helping merchants or doing civilian runs in order to be sustained.

In order to pay its war debt, Germany

Strike441 [17]

Answer:

In 1924, the Dawes Plan reduced Germany's war debt and forced it to adopt a new currency. Reparations continued to be paid through a strange round robin: The U.S. lent Germany money to pay reparations, and the countries that collected reparations payment used that money to pay off United States debts.
