Answer:

to negotiate a treaty

Explanation:

Although the United States began its industrialization process after Europe, it became a major power with a large productive scale thanks to its size. To continue advancing on Pacific markets, US President Millard Fillmore sent Commodore Matthew C. Perry to force a trade treaty with Japan.

At that time, American whaling ships operating in the Pacific were trying to approach Japanese ports for supplies.

However, the Japanese resisted meeting the needs of the crew. The commodore's mission was to dissuade the rulers of Japan from opening their ports and markets to the US.

Explain in detail about the policies that were adopted from the nonMuslims by Aurangzeb

telo118 [61]

Answer:

Lane-Poole, “For the first time in their history, the Mughals beheld a rigid Muslim in their emperor—a Muslim as sternly repressible of himself as of his people around him, a king who was prepared to stake his throne for sake of his faith.
He must have been fully conscious of the dangerous path he was pursuing, and well aware against every Hindu sentiment. Yet he chose this course, and adhered to this with unbending resolve through close on fifty years of unchallenged sovereignty.”
Dr. S.R. Sharma, writing about the acts of religious intolerance of Aurangzeb has observed, “These were not the acts of a righteous ruler of constructive statesman, but the outbursts of blind fanaticism, unworthy of the great genius that Aurangzeb undoubtedly possessed in all other aspects.”

Aims of Aurangzeb’s religious policy:

It is generally accepted that Aurangzeb was a fanatic Sunni Mussalman. His chief aim was to convert Dar-ul-harb (India: the country of Kafirs or infidels) to Dar-ul-Islam (country of Islam).
He was intolerant towards other faiths, especially Hindus. He was also against Shia Muslims.

Aurangzeb’s religious policy had two aspects i.e:

(i) To promote the tenets of Islam and to ensure that the people led their lives accordingly.

(ii) To adopt anti-Hindu measures. Anti-Hindu measures:

Following were the anti-Hindu measures adopted by Aurangzeb:

Demolishing temples and breaking idols
Imposition of Jaziya
Discriminatory toll far
Removal of the Hindus from Government jobs
Restrictions on Hindu educational institutions
Conversion through different means
Social restrictions
