Ira Lisetskai [31]3 years ago
5 0

The expansion of Islam along the eastern coast of Africa happened between the 8th and 9th centuries when travelers, Arab traders and clerigs began to spread the religion. <u>The presence of Muslim merchants stimulated the development of urban communities; mosques were built and a Sudano-Sahelian building style was adopted. The expansion of Islam was good for African societies since it brought new techniques of weighting and the art of writing to Africa.</u>

What effects might the way books were produced in the Middle Ages have had on Europeans and Europe? How Might this have affected
katrin2010 [14]

During the Middle Ages, books were extremely elaborate in Europe. While other civilizations had used easily accessible materials and formats to create their scrolls, books or tablets, Europeans during the Middle Ages spent a great deal of time and money making books. These were bound in leather, decorated with elaborate drawings, and copied by hand in elaborate scripts.

This had a very important effect on European society. It meant that books were not available for the vast majority of the population. It also meant that books were difficult to find and very expensive to acquire. Finally, it also meant that only a very small group of people could read, and these were usually wealthy men and monks.
