Pressured out of their homes in the Asian steppes by the Mongols, the Turkish nomadic tribes<span> converted to </span>Islam<span> during the eighth and ninth centuries. By the tenth century, one of the </span>Turkish tribes<span>, the </span>Seljuk<span>, had become a significant power in the </span>Islamic<span> world and had adopted a settled life that included </span>Islamic<span> orthodoxy, a central administration, and </span>taxation<span>. However, many other </span>Turkish groups<span> remained </span>nomadic<span> and, pursuing the </span>gazi<span> tradition, sought to conquer land for </span>Islam<span> and to acquire war booty for themselves. This led them into conflict with the </span>Seljuk<span> Turks, and to pacify the </span>nomadic<span> tribes, the </span>Seljuks<span> directed them to the eastern domain of the </span>Byzantine Empire<span>, </span>Anatolia<span>. The </span>tribe<span> known as the Ottomans arose from one of the smaller </span>emirates<span> established in northwestern </span>Anatolia<span> after 1071. The </span>dynasty<span> was named for </span>Osman<span> (1259-1326), who began to expand his kingdom into the </span>Byzantine Empire<span> in </span>Asia Minor<span>, moving his capital to </span>Bursa<span> in 1326.</span>

Which of the following was a result of the Ku Klux Klan’s campaign of violence
PIT_PIT [208]
Founded in 1865, the Ku Klux Klan (KKK) extended into almost every southern state by 1870 and became a vehicle for white southern resistance to the Republican Party’s Reconstruction-era policies aimed at establishing political and economic equality for Black Americans. Its members waged an underground campaign of intimidation and violence directed at white and Black Republican leaders. Though Congress passed legislation designed to curb Klan terrorism, the organization saw its primary goal–the reestablishment of white supremacy–fulfilled through Democratic victories in state legislatures across the South in the 1870s.

After a period of decline, white Protestant nativist groups revived the Klan in the early 20th century, burning crosses and staging rallies, parades and marches denouncing immigrants, Catholics, Jews, African Americans and organized labor. The civil rights movement of the 1960s also saw a surge of Ku Klux Klan activity, including bombings of Black schools and churches and violence against Black and white activists in the South. From 1867 onward, Black participation in public life in the South became one of the most radical aspects of Reconstruction, as Black people won election to southern state governments and even to the U.S. Congress. For its part, the Ku Klux Klan dedicated itself to an underground campaign of violence against Republican leaders and voters (both Black and white) in an effort to reverse the policies of Radical Reconstruction and restore white supremacy in the South. They were joined in this struggle by similar organizations such as the Knights of the White Camelia (launched in Louisiana in 1867) and the White Brotherhood.

At least 10 percent of the Black legislators elected during the 1867-1868 constitutional conventions became victims of violence during Reconstruction, including seven who were killed. White Republicans (derided as “carpetbaggers” and “scalawags”) and Black institutions such as schools and churches—symbols of Black autonomy—were also targets for Klan attacks. Hope this helps!
