Well the word "Veda" is derived from the root word "vid" which means to know, devout Hindus revere as the ultimate source of all their religious knowledge.
The United Nations ultimate goal was peace and to replace the unsuccessful League of Nations.
C. Many African and Asian nations are based on former colonial boundaries.
Explanation:
The European imperialism managed to have impact on much of the world. The Americas, Africa, Asia, Australia, Oceania were all heavily impacted. While some former colonies managed to fully move away and almost have no trace that they were colonies, many still have bad consequences from it.
One of those traces and consequences are the boundaries. The majority of the African countries and some countries in Asia still have the colonial boundaries. While this may not seem as a problem it is actually a very big one. The reason as to why this is problem is that people from different religious, ethnic, and linguistic groups have been put in the same borders. Lot of these groups traditionally have bad blood between them and don't tolerate each other.
This situation in many cases has resulted in internal division of the countries. Multiple civil wars have occurred and even genocides. The tensions still persist to this day and unfortunately don't seem like they will be calmed down anytime soon.
<h3>
Answer:</h3>
D. Because the Sudanese government focused on rebels in general,
not a specific ethnic group.
<h3>
Explanation:</h3>
Since the early 2000s, violence against the Sudanese government has been prevalent in the Darfur region. Although, it was not defined as genocide by the UN.
Genocide
First, we need to understand what genocide is.
- Genocide is defined as the deliberate killing of a specific ethnicity, nationality, or religious group.
For the UN to declare something a genocide, a specific group, usually a minority, must be targeted for their unique traits, like ethnicity.
There are 5 forms of genocide:
- Killing members of a group
- Causing grave mental or physical harm
- Forcing purposely terrible living conditions
- Preventing new births
- Forcing children out of the group
One of these must occur to a specific group of people for the UN to declare genocide.
Atrocities in Darfur
While the Sudanese government did deliberately kill people within Darfur, the government attempted to attack rebels. So, the government did not specifically target the ethnicity. However, the majority of the rebels were from Darfur, so some people saw it as a genocide.
