geniusboy [140]3 years ago
6 0

Before, trains, cars, airplanes and trucks existed, rivers were used for travel. They carried people and goods. However, this way of transportation was very slow. All that changed with the arrival of the steamboat in the late 1700s and early 1800s. The steamboat could travel at the amazing speed of 5 miles per hour. It soon changed all over river travel and trade and dominated the waterways.

Summary- In what ways is Islam a way of life as well as a set of beliefs?
Rus_ich [418]
Islam regulates, apart from beliefs, also everyday life and customs. For example, it restricts what you can eat (halal) and effectively ensures that you will most likely eat with fellow Muslims (you're unlikely to eat non-halal food with non-believers).

It also regulates your day, requiring you to pray five times a day - this has a big influence on people's everyday life.

How do bad or evil leaders take control of their country and gain the support of their people?
strojnjashka [21]

You can do this in a variety of ways. If one has the money for it you can start bribing mayors and law enforcement officials to look the other way and gain influence. If there is a racist movement going on campaign in favor of that to feed off of those angry people. This is like how Hitler became Chancellor of Germany.

Another way is to start a revolution in the country against something that the citizens are very unhappy with. Declare yourself as the leader of the revolution. Make sure the revolution is a success. When the revolution is a success, you will be seen as a hero and instantly gain favor of the people. Once this happens make sure you remove all rivals (personal rivals, political rivals, so on) from the country and start centralizing your power. Start spending country funds on militarization and starve your people to intimidate them. Make your people worship you. Have pictures of you, the Great Leader, in the living rooms of every house by law. This is how the leaders of North Korea have done, and they are still worshipped by their people today.
