Answer:

Explanation:

Governments took advantage of the exchange by controlling trade or taxing certain goods developing their civilizations. The wealth of ancient Mali increased because of their government controlling items like horses and metal, and levying taxes on salt and copper pumped wealth into the imperial treasury and sustained the Mali Empire's existence. Mali prospered from the taxes it collected on trade in the empire.

Mali wasn't the first to take advantage of trade; Ghana became a powerhouse before the rise of empires like Mali. Ghana was in an ideal position to become a trading center with salt and gold being its exports. As trade in gold and salt increased, Ghana's rulers gained power taxing merchants, and citizens on the goods they carried into Ghana and on their stores of gold. Ghana prospered on their various taxes to expand their empire.

1200 and 1450 CE, trans-Saharan trade networks significantly supported the development of large states in West Africa. Taxations on goods like gold, salt, and copper increased the wealth of the empires. A succession of three great kingdoms came to power as their people gained control of valuable trade routes in West Africa.

Answer:

The prompt requires causation processing because it is asking how trade networks affect state formation. Causation describes causes and effects of historical development and the question is asking for the effect trade networks have on state formation in West Africa. The question limits what the writer can include about trans-Saharan trade networks to only state formations and limits the networks to only trade networks. It also limits the location of networks to trans-Saharan and limits state formation to West Africa. The writer can choose different trade networks and can pick one or many West African states.

CIVICS How might industrialization and mass production in Europe at this time have led to social
Elenna [48]

<u>Answer</u>:

Industrialization and mass production in Europe at this time have led to social theories, such as Marxism.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Karl Marx came with the idea of ‘Marxism’ where he believed that the workers were losing their independence because of Industrial revolution. Due to Industrial revolution, mass production required large number of workers in the factories. But they had to work in factories on the given timing and they had no control on their own lives. They were also paid less wages according to Karl’s idea of Marxism. This was unfair to the workers.

According to this theory, industrial revolution led to only two classes of people in a society: the working class and the owners of factories. So, social theories arose during this time.

Why was slavery a paradox in the United States? Why did most blacks not want to go to Africa during the colonization movement? W
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer and Explanation:

Slavery in the United States was a paradox because it was stated in the constitution that all men are created equal, yet the same document contradicted it and there were laws such as the Virginia law passed in October 1705, stating that if a master was to kill a slave who was undergoing “correction,” it would not be considered a crime.

The Back-to-Africa Movement: also known as black Zionism or colonization movement was the the view that Americans of African ancestry should return to Africa. It failed woefully as most black Americans did not want to return to Africa. This is most likely because they didn't know the homelands of their ancestors and were not sure where to begin(afraid of starting afresh) or what the "strange land" of Africa held for them.

the Missouri compromise tried to achieve a balance of power between slave states and free states in Congress. It made Missouri a slave state and Maine a free state

The North was becoming more urban and industrial as there was the increase in population with new immigrants. The South started to lose its power in Congress.

John C. Calhoun was a South Carolina senator and was known to utilize the argument of states' rights to protect slavery in the Nullification Crisis of 1832-1833.

States' rights in American refers to the political powers that reserved only/exclusive to the U.S. state governments rather than the federal government as defined by the United States Constitution.

Secession: this is the act of withdrawing from a country or territory or state to form another government(country or territory). Advocates of secession are known as disunionists.

To avoid dissolution of the Union by appeasing both sides on the slavery issue. This is because the threat of dissolution was mainly founded on outstanding slavery issues and tension that would eventually bring about the civil war.

Why did Napoleon cause instability in Europe?
vovikov84 [41]

Napoléon Bonaparte was a Corsican statesman and military leader who rose to prominence during the French Revolution and led several successful campaigns during the French Revolutionary Wars. He was Emperor of the French from 1804 until 1814 and again briefly in 1815 during the Hundred Days. Napoleon dominated European and global affairs for more than a decade while leading France against a series of coalitions in the Napoleonic Wars. He won most of these wars and the vast majority of his battles, building a large empire that ruled over continental Europe before its final collapse in 1815

Following the radical French Revolution of 1789, First Consul of France Napoleon Bonaparte launched a series of military campaigns aimed at expanding the French Empire known as the Napoleonic Wars. The wars were largely successful for the French army until the overzealous French general attempted an attack on the Russian Empire, resulting in his army's defeat and Napoleon's exile to the island of Elba. His exile however proved ineffective, and Napoleon returned to the French throne and attempted further armed conflict in the continent. This time, Napoleon's forces were easily overwhelmed, and Napoleon was exiled to the remote island of St. Helena, where he would reside until his death in 1821. Meanwhile, as a result of the aggressive expansionist French campaigns, the Great Powers of Europe, which at the time was comprised of Great Britain, Austria, Russia, Prussia, and France, held the Congress of Vienna in 1814-1815 headed by Austrian statesman Klemens von Metternich to debate how Europe was to be reformed and how France was to be punished for its aggression. The Congress' first objective was to ratify the previously drafted Treaty of Chaumont, which forced France to cede any territory gained in the Napoleonic Wars and pledged each nation's army to resist and extinguish any continued French aggression. The second and more delicate objective of the Congress of Vienna was to size and reshape national boundaries in continental Europe in order to balance the Great Powers of Europe, using Northern Italy, Poland, and a series of small German states as a sort of neutralizing buffer between Austria, Prussia, and Russia. The ultimate result of the Congress of Vienna was the Concert of Europe—the framework for European international policy until the outbreak of World War I in 1914
