The answer is D. He placed family members in charge of regions.

The land of Zhou was a vassal state of the Shang Dynasty. A powerful leader of the Zhou named Wen Wang began to plan to overthrow the Shang Dynasty. The Zhou Dynasty was divided up into the Western Zhou and Eastern Zhou periods. It extended its power over the eastern plain by granting authority to members of the royal family and in some cases to favored adherents, that established walled forts supported by garrison troops among the original habitants of the east.

Match each achievement to the correct scholar from the Islamic golden age. Avicenna Averroes Maimonides wrote about the ideas of

cricket20 [7]

Answer:

Avicenna > Greek philosophers & the Canon of Medicine

Averroes > ....?

Maimonides > study of the Jewish Torah

Explanation:

To start with Avicenna, he was a brilliant self-taught filosopher who admitted to have read <em>Metafysics </em>by Aristoteles a thousand times without understanding a single sentence, until he finally saw the (filosophical) light.

He also wrote the Canon of Medicine, a classic in Medicine, that was used in Europe (in Montpellier, France, to be precisely) as late as 1650. That is, some 600 years later.

Maimonides was a Jewish Philosopher who wrote in the Arabic language (!). Remember that in those long-gone days of religious harmony in Spain (that was ruled by the Arabs) Cristians, Arabs and Jews lived happily together.

One of his books was on the Jewish Torah.

Now, Averroes was a real genius (of the exact sciences), but also a bit too honest for this world. He right believed that only true filosophical logic could lead us to the real truth - finishing a thought that Socrates was developing and on which Immanuel Kant spend almost his entiry life.

Averroes got in trouble when he stated that the Koran and the Bible are alegoric stories for ignorant people...

Some people say he is the father of modern medicine; I would say he is the (ignored) father of wisdom.
