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.

Explain how and why internal and external factors have influenced the process of state building from 1750 to 1900
stepan [7]

Answer:

​​​Some states with existing colonies strengthened their control over those colonies and in some cases assumed direct control over colonies previously held by non-state entities. European states as well as the United States and Japan acquired territories throughout Asia and the Pacific, while Spanish and Portuguese influence declined. Many European states used both warfare and diplomacy to expand their empires in Africa. Trade in some commodities was organized in a way that gave merchants and companies based in Europe and the U.S. a distinct economic advantage. The need for raw materials for factories and increased food supplies for the growing population in urban centers led to the growth of export economies around the world that specialized in commercial extraction of natural resources and the production of food and industrial crops. The profits from these raw materials were used to purchase finished goods. ​​​Increasing questions about political authority and growing nationalism contributed to anti-colonial movements. Anti-imperial resistance took various forms, including direct resistance within empires and the creation of new states on the peripheries. Increasing discontent with imperial rule led to rebellions, some of which were influenced by religious ideas.

Why was there a rise in nativism after World War 1​
Artemon [7]

<u>Answer:</u>

There was a rise in Nativism because the people were afraid that the communism would spread.

<u>Explanation:</u>

"Nativism” is a political party which promotes interests of its native residents and not of the immigrants.

Immigration reached its new heights by the end of 19th century in US. There were diverse cultures, new languages and customs and racial enmity.

In reaction to all this, many supported Nativism. Nativists also fueled a sense of fear by supposing that there was a foreign threat. They pointed the assassinations of the “Spanish prime minister” in 1897, the “Italian” king in 1900, and even President "William McKinley" in 1901 as evidence of all this.
