The correct answer is D) Abbasid rulers became wealthy by controlling trade between East Asia and Europe.
The statement that describes the Abbasid Empire between the eighth and thirteenth centuries is "Abbasid rulers became wealthy by controlling trade between East Asia and Europe."

Answer:
The great army of the West, commanded by General William T. Sherman, enters Savannah, Georgia, at Christmas of 1864. They have just come on their march to the sea, starting out in Atlanta. They have marched through the heart of Georgia... They have destroyed everything in their path that could be of use to the Confederacy: railroad tracks, they have burned plantations. They have liberated tens of thousands of slaves, enforcing the Emancipation Proclamation of President Lincoln... Sherman says when he starts out on the march, "I can make Georgia howl." He's bringing the war to the civilian population. He doesn't kill civilians. He doesn't attack them, but he destroys property; he destroys their livelihoods and he liberates their slaves.
He's trying to demonstrate that the South has no power that can prevent the North from prevailing in this war. If he can march right through the heart of one of the most important Southern states without any opposition even, wreaking devastation and liberating the slaves... And for generations afterward, the name Sherman will be a byword for cruelty in the minds of white Southerners and white Georgians who experience this.

Answer:
Dear Diary,
Today, once again I find myself struggling to keep moving forward in this horrendous lifestyle I'm having. I'm in charge of collecting all of the belongings that was once in possession of a Jew. All for the pleasure of the Nazis. I now find myself keeping any money or paper I can find to use as bath tissue for me and my friends. There will never be any words that I can use to describe how horrendous this place and this life is. The feeling of waking up and having someone dead beside you is unthinkable. We all work so hard to just survive one more hour. What will happen in just a few hours is a big mystery for all of us still working. You cannot rely on someone. just when you think you find someone to trust they end up leaving. My only hope is to be able to get food and live through one more day to write in this diary again.
this only works if you are talking about the concentration camps the Jews were sent to by the Nazis.
The answer will depend on two things, where in Asia and when in Asian you're referring to. You have to remember that the Mongol Empire was the largest the world has ever seen, and stretched from parts of South Asia all the way into parts of Eastern Europe. Due to this, their society was different depending on where you found them. Often, the Mongols would begin to adopt parts of the society of the areas they occupied (i.e. The Mongols in the Middle East/Central Asia began to adopt Islam as their religion, and reflected it in their culture, while Mongols who occupied China would take on more Chinese ways of life.)
As for mongol society that didn't involve this "borrowing of culture," The Mongols were nomadic peoples that lived throughout Central and Northern Asia. They were originally series of many different tribes, but eventually became united under Ghangis Khan through his policies of marrying off his children to other tribes rulers, simple alliances, and sometimes force.
The Mongol Empire also brought a lot to Asia (some people see their Empire as having been a benefit to the whole of Asia, really). Since most of Asia was dominated by the one empire, trading became much easier, with trade routes becoming more secure. Besides the spread of goods through trade, they also helped to spread ideas for the same reason. Several countries connected together by one Empire allowed the Mongols to spread ideas throughout their empire. In modern day you can still find Influences of the Mongol Empire in Asia, such as the continued practice of Islam in Central Asian and Western China, or the fact that they had helped several cities develop more quickly, thus cementing their place in history.
