The Earth is massive enough that the pull of gravity maintains its roughly spherical shape. Most of its deviation from spherical stems from the centrifugal force caused by rotation around its north-south axis. This force deforms the sphere into an oblate ellipsoid

When did European nations leave southeast Asia and why did they leave

Doss [256]

The European Nations left South East Asia during the 19th century.
The reasons include the presence of indigenous religions, western education, and the effect of socialism and communism.

Explanation:

European nations such as Portugal, Spain, Netherlands, Great Britain, and France had colonies in South East Asia. During the 1500s and 1600s, Europeans were able to gain power over South East Asia through trade and commerce.

The southeast Asian countries achieved nationalism through various approaches. The Buddhist and Islamic supporters of Burma and Indonesia respectively initiated national movements.
In Burma, new western-educated elite joined hands with Buddhist Monks and with other Burmese people.

In the Philippines, western-educated leaders fought against Spain. In Malaya, educated Malays were motivated into Civil service.

Meanwhile in Indonesia, the people who were educated from Dutch schools formed the P.N.I - Indonesian Nationalist Party. Communist and socialist activities played a massive role in Indonesia, Vietnam, etc.

What three religions are in constant conflict over the land in the Middle East? Describe the claim of each.

Ymorist [56]

Answer:

Judaism, Christianity, and Islam are in constant conflict over the land in the Middle East.

Explanation:

The Middle East is a region that is important for many reasons, and one of them is religious importance. This area is actually the birthplace of three major religions, the so-called Abrahamic religions. The three religions that emrged in this region are Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, in that order.

Judaism came first, and what is now Israel is considered as the holy land for this religion. Despite many attempts to forcefully removing the Jews from this area, some of them still managed to survive there and many more came back in the last century to reclaim what they consider as historically theirs.

Christianity emerged from Judaism. What is now Israel is also holy to it, and especially the city of Jerusalem. The claim of the Christians for this region is that their religion emerged there and its holy places have to be in their hands and no one else.

Islam came last, emerging from Christianity. Soon it became the dominant religion in the region through conquest and assimilation. It has been dominant in the area for over a milennium, so the claim is that it is historically theirs and since they managed to conquer the place it belongs to them.
