<h2>Silk Road History</h2><h3><u>The Silk Road</u></h3>

The east-west trade routes between Greece and China began to open during the first and second centuries B.C. The Roman Empire and the Kushan Empire (which ruled territory in what is now northern India) also benefited from the commerce created by the route along the Silk Road.

<h3><u>Why it was important and why</u></h3>

Because silk was the major trade product which traveled on this road, it was named the Silk Road in 1877 by Ferdinand von Richthofen – a well-known German geographer. This ancient route not only circulated goods, but also exchanged the splendid cultures of China, India, Persia, Arabia, Greek and Rome.

<h3><u>How it got it's name</u></h3>

The Silk Road derives its name from the lucrative Asian silk, a major reason for the connection of trade routes into an extensive transcontinental network. The German terms Seidenstraße and Seidenstraßen ("the Silk Road(s)") were coined by Ferdinand von Richthofen, who made seven expeditions to China from 1868 to 1872.

Enslavement and indentured servitude were forms of __________ used by southern plantation owners. slavery wage labor forced labo
Alex_Xolod [135]
<span>Both enslavement and indentured servitude were both forms of forced labor. Each is a form of forced labor because those in that condition were obligated to perform work. Indentured servitude was not a form of slavery or imprisonment because indentured servants retained some rights beyond those of slaves or prisoners. Many indentured servants, and even some slaves, received wages for their labor, but neither status could properly be considered a form of wage labor because both slaves and indentured servants could be required to work in the absence wages.</span>
