There are many things that historians can learn from the Torah. The Torah is a collection of sacred readings according to Jewish faith. Therefore, reading the Torah can teach us a lot about the beliefs, history and culture of Jewish people. Moreover, the Torah was written in ancient times, which means that it also provides an invaluable source of anthropological information. Finally, the Torah shares a lot of similarities with the Christian Bible. Therefore, studying it can also help us better understand how Christianity developed.

What were some of the different ways Chinese rulers maintained order in ancient china?<br> HELP!!!
diamong [38]

Answer:

the would force lavbor and have brutal punsihments

Explanation:

The emperors of ancient China had tremendous power and responsibility. Called the 'Son of Heaven', he (and once she) was given a divine right to rule over all people but was expected to promote their best interest and not his own. An absolute monarch, although in practice dependent on an inner circle of advisors, the mystique of the emperor was enhanced by his invisibility to ordinary people, secluded as he often was in the imperial palace. To gain a personal audience with the emperor, even if he still remained hidden behind a screen while he sat on his golden dragon throne, was the highest of honours. Perhaps no other ancient ruler was ever as remote or as revered as the Emperor of China.      

Mandate of Heaven

The rulers of the Western Zhou dynasty were the first to take the traditional Chinese worship of ancestors a step further and carry the title 'Son of Heaven' (Tianzi). King Wen of the Zhou, c. 1050 BCE, claimed he, and, as it conveniently tuned out, all of his successors too, had been given the right to rule by the gods (either Heaven or Sky). This was nothing less than a Mandate of Heaven or Tianming, that is, an unchallengeable right to govern. Not actually divine but, rather, ruling on behalf of the gods on earth, the role also carried the great responsibility to take decisions for the good of the people. If he did not rule well, then China would suffer terrible disasters such as floods and droughts and he would lose the right to govern. This was also a useful explanation as to why ruling dynasties changed over the centuries: they had lost the blessing of heaven through misrule.

1. Many scholars consider the Civil War as the first modern war in history. List at least three reasons why they consider it a m
Vsevolod [243]
Here are three reasons why the Civil War would be considered the first modern war:
1) Development of naval mines and torpedoes- These weapons developed by the Confederate lead to the sinking of 40 different Union ships. These weapons would be used in several different wars after this (including World War I).

2) Communication via the telegraph- The telegraph was created in 1844 by Samuel Morse. The Civil War became the first US war that used this technology. This allowed Lincoln to get much quicker updates on the war and allowed the media to report the news faster to citizens.

3) Development of the Army ambulance corp- This allowed for wounded soldiers to be recovered and treated quickly when injured in battle. This structure is still used in warfare today, as their are constantly doctors and other medical professionals nearby to help injured soldiers.

New technology lead to more destructive weapons (mustard gas and machine guns) during World War I
svetlana [45]

Answer:

A prolonged war and greatly increased the number of casualties in the war

Explanation:

In World War I we saw the introduction of chemical weapons, machine guns, artillery, and tanks. All of this resulted in trench warfare and the lack of tactics to fight the new weapons meant that the war would be longer and a lot deadlier than it would have been without those weapons. It dragged for years from one stalemate to another and claimed a lot of lives.
