How Christianity helped to unify the Byzantine empire

History
1 answer:
FromTheMoon [43]3 years ago
6 0

Byzantine Emperor Alexius did not have enough power to go against the Seljuk Turks who had settled outside the gates of Byzantium, so he invited Christian rulers in the west to join forces against a common Islamic enemy.  So, in addition to that Seljuk Turks were Muslims.

This will prove to be one of the most significant (and by Byzantium as one of the most disastrous) decisions in the history of the Empire, the Christian world and the history of relations between Christians and Muslims.

Roman Pope Urban used this invitation to help end the centuries-old aspirations of Roman Catholic leaders to annex the Byzantine Church to the Roman Catholic subjugation. Therefore, in 1095, at the council in Clermont, he called on the entire Western Christian world to take up arms under the sign of the cross and to embark on a campaign to retake Jerusalem from the hands of the unbelievers. This was followed by an incredible and unexpectedly massive response from warriors from all parts of the western countries from the Mediterranean to the North Sea, and one of the points on their journey was Constantinople.

Explanation:

  • The Byzantine emperor Alexius expected help in the form of a smaller number of mercenary units from the west and was completely unprepared for a huge and undisciplined army of armed savages who soon arrived in the Byzantine territories.
  • Most of the leaders from the west were Normans, and Emperor Alexius allowed them to pass through Constantinople only on the condition that they swear that all the liberated territories would belong to Byzantium.
  • The Norman promises to Byzantium were quickly broken as soon as the first unbelieving territories and cities were conquered, including Antioch, which was adopted as a feud by the Norman Bohemund, son of the famous Norman conqueror Robert, proclaiming himself the Prince of Antioch.

What was the significance of Greenwood being nicknamed “The Black Wall Street”?
Afina-wow [57]

<u>Answer:</u>

the significance of Greenwood being nicknamed “The Black Wall Street” as B) it signified the financial success of the area

<u>Explanation:</u>

In the early 20th century, the present-day Greenwood Avenue was known as the Black Wall Street for its thriving economy, wholly propelled by the African American community. Under the Dawes Act, 1887 many African-Americans who were former slaves of tribes acquired land in this area. Others migrated to this area, which was now considered a haven for the black community, to escape racial oppression.

OW Gurley and JB Stradford are mainly credited to kick start the economic development of this place. Schools, hotels, furriers, posh restaurants, a library and other establishments of prosperity marked the streets of Greenwood.

New businesses cropped up with assistance from the affluent black community. This ensured that the money so created circulated first within the community. This made Greenwood entirely self-contained, reliant and an economic powerhouse and thus the name- Black Wall Street.
