Plate tectonics, when the inner layers of the earth vibrates and reacts with high intensity of heat and magma due to the earth's core.

The wave is called a tsunami.Tsunami waves are produced when a volcanic eruption or earth quake occurs in the ocean.Tsunami waves are usually  giant waves . when they are produced far out in the ocean, they are not all that tall. What happens is that as they begin to move from far out in the ocean towards the coast, they begin getting taller and taller the depth of the sea floor reduces and the sea gets shallower and shallower. By time they reach land they may be dozens of feet high.<span>They also move at terrific speed especially over deep waters, almost as fast as a jet plane. They only begin to slow down as they approach land but even then the speed is still tremendous.</span>

Which religion made its way to india between 700 and 800 CE?
bija089 [108]

Answer:

Islam made its way to India between 700 and 800 CE.

Explanation:

India, as a region, is the cradle of Hinduism, Buddhism, and Sikhism. Hinduism has become and remained dominant, with Sikhism being practiced on a smaller scale, while Buddhism moved eastward. Despite the dominance of Hinduism in the region, between 700 and 800 CE, a new religion came in and ever since has been competing with it.

The new religion in the region was Islam. Initially, it came with the traders and merchants, some of which settled in India and formed small communities. After that, the more important process of the introduction of Islam in India was through military conquest and forced conversion. This has resulted in large areas of India that were ruled by Muslims quickly become dominated by Islam, and since Muslims were rulling areas of India for a very long time the influence was very big, where around a third of the total population of the region nowadays is Muslim.
