Answer:  An auto-da-fé or auto-de-fé (from Portuguese auto da fé [ˈaw.tu dɐ ˈfɛ], meaning "act of faith") was the ritual of public penance of condemned heretics and apostates that took place when the Spanish Inquisition, Portuguese Inquisition or the Mexican Inquisition had decided their punishment, followed by the carrying out by the civil authorities of the sentences imposed.

The most extreme punishment imposed on those convicted was execution by burning. In popular usage, the term auto-da-fé, the act of public penance, came to mean burning the convicted person at the stake, although that was a punishment for only the most serious offenses.

How did the European colonization of the New World and the development of the Atlantic System affect the economies and politics
balu736 [363]

European colonization introduced modern technology and expanded commerce in Southwest Asia.

Explanation:

Europeans were successful in taking entire control of Asia. Due o the boom of industrial expansion in Britain and other European countries, many Europeans established power over Asians. Britain annexed Burma, Penang and Malaya states thereby expressing its domination and superiority in south west Asia. The phenomenon of imperialism by Europe which was called new imperialism had seen the conquests of all empires in Asia and thereby surrendering to the dominance of European countries.

list three ways that volcanic activity near krakatoa in 1883 affected people in the region as well as the rest of the world
Nady [450]

The eruption of the Krakatoa volcano in 1883 is considered one of the most violent and deadly in history. In August 1883, this volcanic activity ended with the lives of approximately 36,000 people. One of the ways in which this activity directly affected the population of the region was by the blasts of the volcano and the consequent thermal injuries. Another way in which the population was affected was by the tsunamis generated by the collapse of the volcano. Finally, the eruption had an impact on the global climate, generating temperature drops throughout the world.
