1 answer:

7 0

The Jenne-jeno is located in the Niger River Valley in the country of Mali. It is one of the oldest urbanized centers in Sub-Saharan Africa.

During the first millennium b.c.e. it served as a transportation point where goods were shifted from the Niger river to donkey caravans and vice versa.

It is suspected that it grew to such big size as a result of the regional and local trade. There is archeological evidence that supports that this place was part of a pre-Arab trans-Saharan trade network, in which commodities such as salt, copper and dried fish were exchanged.

Schach [20]

Massanet's view focus on peacefully bringing people closer to God is his way protecting the mission. As much as possible he did not want any casualties. He did not give up on people, kept visiting them until they are persuaded to be closer to God. While De Leon’s view coerced people to be close to God by implementation from the Government. De Leon asked the Governor to necessitate all families to attend Christian teachings.

Explanation? Why was there conflict between Piedmont and Tidewater residents? How did events here foreshadow the eventual fight

Leni [432]

First Question:

The conflict of Tidewater vs Piedmont was a result of the various different waves of immigrants to the US. Early English settlers who first arrived in Virginia settled in the areas near the ocean (Tidewater), which had a richer soil and allowed them to produce more crops and generate better revenue. Later immigrants, both from Europe and from other regions in the US, were left with the area of Piedmont, closer to the mountains. The heavy clay made it difficult to farm, creating inequalities between the two regions.

Second Question:

These events foreshadowed the eventual Revolutionary War in two main ways:

1. It provided evidence of how the immigration experience could be so different for each wave of people. Closer to the Revolutionary War, recent immigrants felt a stronger attachment to England, while older gentry already well established in the country felt more American. Also, the differences in income meant that well-off Americans were more interested in governing themselves, as opposed to being taxed by a foreign power.

2. It highlighted issued of territory and division, in particular after the split of Virginia. These issues would become very significant after independence.
