Why were the Arabs able to conquer territory quickly.
alekssr [168]
They weren't so successful at conquering Europe or China. Of course, one can blame the long supply lines, but in these cases their adversaries were also determined to repulse them.

In contrast, Byzantium and Persia were exhausted from mutual warfare. Tribes related by kinship to Muslim Arabs had served as mercenaries during this period, so there was a lot of tactical knowledge available.

The Byzantines retreated to the highlands of Anatolia upon losing their lower-lying provinces to the Muslims. I am not sure if they launched a determined counter-attack. The Persians did, but they could not fight coherently.

Question 1 of 17
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

C. Consuls.

Explanation:

Power in the Roman Republic was distributed among various levels, among which the post of a consul is the highest elected post. This post is held by individuals that are elected by the citizens for a one-year term.

Consuls are similar to that of head-of-states. They had power over the military, represented the state in foreign affairs, and also presided over important sessions or events. Every year, two individuals are elected to be the consul, but with the coming of emperors, the power of the consuls declined as the emperor held most of the high-authority powers.

Thus, the correct answer is option C.
