Egyptian agriculture drew upon
wheat and barley, which reached Egypt from Mesopotamia, as well as
gourds, watermelons, domesticated donkeys, and cattle, which derived
from Sudan. Some scholars argue that Egypt's steep pyramids and its
system of writing were stimulated by Mesopotamian models. The practice
of divine kingship seems to have derived form the central or eastern
Sudan. Ind-Europeans Hittites—and pastorals—Hyksos-- influenced
both Egypt and Mesopotamia (Babylonia) by bringing with them the
domesticated horse, wheeled carts, and chariot technology, which were
introduced into their own military forces. The Egyptians absorbed
foreign innovations, such as the horse-drawn chariot; new kinds of
armor, bows, daggers, and swords; improved methods of spinning and
weaving; new musical instruments; and olive and pomegranate trees. After
expelling the Hyksos, the Egyptians went on to create their own empire,
both in Nubia and in the eastern Mediterranean regions of Syria and
Palestine. The Babylonian and Egyptian Empires were also bound together
by marriage alliances as part of an international political system.

Explanation:
When Saudi Arabia executed 47 people, including dissident Shia cleric Nimr Baqr al-Nimr, seemingly in a deliberate effort to inflame tensions
began in 1933, centering on oil exploration
America to turn a blind eye to Saudi Arabia's human rights abuses and a theocratic, authoritarian system that would seem so opposed to American values.
There's no doubt that it began with oil. In 1933, the Saudi monarchy granted the American company Standard Oil exclusive rights to look for oil in the country's eastern province. In 1938, the joint US-Saudi venture, eventually called ARAMCO, found truly staggering reserves. The US government wanted to protect its companies' investment, especially when America was in dire need of crude during World War II.
Answer:
The Ninety-Two Resolutions were drafted by Louis-Joseph Papineau and other members of the Parti patriote of Lower Canada in 1834. The resolutions were a long series of demands for political reforms in the British-governed colony.
Papineau had been elected speaker of the legislative assembly of Lower Canada in 1815. His party constantly opposed the unelected colonial government, and in 1828 he helped draft an early form of the resolutions, essentially a list of grievances against the colonial administration. To ensure that the views of the Legislative Assembly be understood by the British House of Commons, the Parti patriote had sent its own delegation to London in order to submit a memoir and a petition signed by 87,000 people.
On February 28, 1834, Papineau presented the Ninety-Two Resolutions to the Legislative Assembly which were approved and sent to London.[1] The resolutions included, among other things, demands for an elected Legislative Council and an Executive Council responsible before the house of representatives. Under the Constitutional Act of 1791, the government of Lower Canada was given an elected legislative assembly, but members of the upper houses were appointed by the Governor of the colony.
In the resolutions, the elected representatives once again reiterated their loyalty to the British Crown, but expressed frustration that the government of London had been unwilling to correct the injustices caused by the past governments of the colony.
Papineau's resolutions were ignored for almost three years; meanwhile, the Legislative Assembly did all it could to oppose the un-elected upper houses while avoiding outright rebellion. British Colonial Secretary Lord Russell eventually responded to them by issuing ten resolutions of his own (the Russell Resolutions). All of the Legislative Assembly's demands were rejected.
