After the death of Muhammad, caliphate was formed, which spread to vast geographical areas. The spread of Islam was spurred by missionary activities, by the Imams, who, by mixing with the local population, preached Islam, the way of life, practice. Such early caliphates, along with Muslim trade, spread Islam predominantly in the Middle East, up to the Pacific and the Atlantic.

Muslim dynasties are very fast established. Scientists from the Muslim world founded large school and university centers, libraries, where they gathered knowledge from the whole ancient world, which contributed to the golden age of Islam. During the golden era of Islam, Islamic writing expanded and consolidated through the written word.

Also, many dynasties strives for territorial expansion and embarked on the conquest, where, normally, the conquest implies the expansion of Islam. It is known that North Africa was conquered by Muslim dynasties, which until then had been Christian .

We can tell, that, spread of Islam has been achieved through word of mouth, peaceful measures, through writings and through war.

Answer: Through War

Explanation: Spread of Islam. After Mohammed's death, the Muslims chose a new ruler, or caliph, meaning successor. The first caliph, and those who succeeded him, spread Islam throughout as much of the world as the Muslim armies could conquer.

In the years after Mohammed's death, the Muslim armies swept north and conquered Syria and Iran. They conquered Egypt and the northern coast of Africa. They succeeded in crossing the Strait of Gibraltar and conquered Spain in the early A.D. 700s. Europe was in great danger of falling under Islamic rule.

In A.D. 732, the Muslims attacked France, but they were stopped at the Battle of Poitiers (also called the Battle of Tours). This was one of the most important battles in history. If the Muslims had won, all of Europe would have been open to their armies. Charles Martel, grandfather of the great Frankish king Charlemagne, led the army that defeated the Muslims.

The Muslims were unable to conquer Europe, but they continued to hold Spain for over 700 years until the Catholic monarchs Ferdinand and Isabella captured the last Muslim stronghold in 1492.

The Muslims continued to spread their empire to the east. Afghanistan and Pakistan were conquered. Eventually, Turkey and the last remains of the Eastern Roman (Byzantine) Empire were conquered as well. The Muslims captured the city of Constantinople in 1453.

As they became more powerful, the caliphs became wealthy and lived in great luxury. They were less interested in religion and more interested in their own pleasure. The empire was divided as Muslims fought among themselves for power. By the 900s, the caliphs were no longer the one ruler of Islam. Great Muslim empires continued for a time in Turkey, Spain, India, Iran, and Egypt. The Islamic world has not been united since.

Which argument best supports the idea that the electoral college should be eliminated
Sladkaya [172]

This is a system set up by the founding fathers, people would want to stick with the passed down, original tradition.

It also gives low-population states a say in federal government where higher population states might overwhelm them, if its possible to that is. Plus, in my opinion at least, popular vote is pretty much useless

jek_recluse [69]
The correct answer is the "Confederate States had superior military leadership for the war."

Answer one is in incorrect because the North had more railroad mileage, citizens, and industry. The only real resource advantage the South had over the North was production of cotton.

Answer three is incorrect because many powerful European nations like Britain and France never formally recognized the Confederacy as an independent country (aka separate from the Union).

Answer four is incorrect because slaves did not work as spies for the Confederacy. Instead, they worked for the Union as spies, as they felt a Union victory would result in their freedom from the institution of slavery.

Therefor, the only correct answer is the second statement.
