The Europeans were interest in Africa for two main reasons, slaves and resources. They needed the west African coastline for slave trading since that's where all the slaves were taken by their captors to be sold, and they needed to go deeper into the continent to get natural resources. Central and Southern central Africa were places with things like Gold, but they also needed the subsaharan area for things like Ivory from elephants. They were also looking for things like diamonds.

The borders were created without any regards for people living there which meant that tribes would often be separated and clustered with other tribes that didn't have their cultural beliefs, or didn't even speak the same language. This caused a lot of civil wars because after the colonization, the borders remained, so different ethnic tribes would fight for power over the other tribes.

How did the fact that Italian artists painted often painted frescoes on large church walls lead to the development of the techni
Leto [7]

The Italian Renaissance was one of the most productive periods in the history of art, with large numbers of outstanding masters to be found in many centers and in all the major fields painting, sculpture, and architecture. In Florence, in the first half of the fifteenth century, there were great innovators in all these fields, whose work marked a beginning of a new era in the history of art. These innovators included Masaccio in painting, Brunelleschi in architecture, and Donatello in sculpture. Their new ideals and methods were systematized in the theoretical writings of their friend and fellow artist Leon Battista Alberti. There can also be observed in this period a change in the social status of the artist. Heretofore, he had been an artisan, a craftsman. Now the attempt was made to include artists among the practitioners of the "liberal arts," which were regarded as being on a higher level than the "mechanical arts." These efforts bore fruit, and some of the great masters, for example, Titian and Michelangelo, by the force of their genius and personality, were able to achieve a measure of status and respect rarely enjoyed by their predecessors. The idea of artistic genius became popular; Michelangelo was called "divine" because of the greatness of his creative powers.

In the Renaissance, art and science were closely connected. Both the artist and the scientist strove for the mastery of the physical world, and the art of painting profited by two fields of study that may be called scientific: anatomy, which made possible a more accurate representation of the human body, and mathematical perspective. Perspective in painting is the rendering on a two- dimensional surface of the illusion of three dimensions. Previous painters had achieved this effect by empirical means, but the discovery of a mathematical method of attaining a three-dimensional impression is attributed to Brunelleschi in about 1420. Henceforth, the method could be systematically studied and explained, and it became one of the chief instruments of artists, especially painters, in their pursuit of reality. Some men were both artists and scientists, notably Leonardo da Vinci and Piero della Francesca. It is doubtful whether they would have understood our distinction between art and science.

This political system is based on the rule of law
Lerok [7]

Answer:

C.)

Explanation:

In the rule of law, everyone has to follow the same laws without exceptions. Anarchy and oligarchy are not based on the rule of law by definition, because anarchy implies lack of organised society and oligarchy is governing for only the advantage of the wealthy. Although monarchy can be constitutional, in monarchies, the monarch can be both above the law and able to enact laws, preventing the rule of law. The same applies to democracy, with the exception that instead of the monarch, the majority of poeple enacts laws. Only the republic is intrinsicially based on the rule of law: in an ideal republic, the the law is above the interests of any particular societal group, but is enacted to safequard the rights of all groups, who are all obliged to obey it.
