History

ivann1987 [24]2 years ago

The year 622 brought a new challenge to Christianity. Near Mecca, Saudi Arabia, a prophet named Muhammad claimed he received a revelation that became a cornerstone of the Islamic faith. The Koran, which Muhammad wrote in Arabic, identified Jesus Christ not as God but as a prophet. Islam spread throughout the Middle East and into Europe until 732.Soon thereafter, European Christians began the Crusades, a campaign of violence against Muslims to dominate the Holy Lands—an area that extended from modern-day Turkey in the north along the Mediterranean coast to the Sinai Peninsula—under Islamic control, partially in response to sustained Muslim control in Europe. The city of Jerusalem is a holy site for Jews, Christians, and Muslims; evidence exists that the three religions lived there in harmony for centuries. But in 1095, European Christians decided not only to reclaim the holy city from Muslim rulers but also to conquer the entire surrounding area.

Our flagship World Development

Report 2012 demonstrated that gender equality and economic development are inextricably linked. It showed

that equality not only guarantees basic

rights but also plays a vital role in promoting the robust, shared growth needed to end

extreme poverty in our increasingly competitive, globalized world. The persistent constraints and deprivations that prevent many

of the world’s women from achieving their

potential have huge consequences for individuals, families, communities, and nations.

The 2012 report recognized that expanding

women’s agency—their ability to make decisions and take advantage of opportunities—

is key to improving their lives as well as the

world we all share.
