<span>The Berlin Conference set down rules for dividing up Africa. This meant that the European colonizers established national borders that grouped certain African ethnic groups together. This meant that despite ethnic groups being historical enemies, they were now being forced to live within the same boundaries. 

Ex: German & Belgian colonial governments aggravated the historically tense relations between the Hutu and Tutsi ethnic groups in present-day Rwanda and Burundi. The ethnic violence between these two groups resulted in a war that led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people (as we saw in the movie Hotel Rwanda).</span>

Answer:

Depreciate in value, be a weaker currency

Explanation:

Depreciation in value means that it is going down in value. you can buy less for the same amount of money today that you could buy last year for example.

Being a weaker currency means that in comparison to other currencies around the world the weaker one has less value. So today 1 USD is worth 0.77 British pounds, but if reversed then the pound would be a weaker currency.

Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

Tigris and Euphrates

Explanation:

While Mesopotamia's soil was fertile, the region's semiarid climate didn't have much rainfall, with less than ten inches annually. This initially made farming difficult. Two major rivers in the region -- the Tigris and Euphrates -- provided a source of water that enabled wide-scale farming.

Religion was central to Mesopotamians as they believed the divine affected every aspect of human life. Mesopotamians were polytheistic; they worshipped several major gods and thousands of minor gods. Each Mesopotamian city, whether Sumerian, Akkadian, Babylonian or Assyrian, had its own patron god or goddess.
