Answer:

Hinduism is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The caste system was found in Hinduism. It divided society into four sections. In the beginning there were only four castes and it was known as Varna system. Portuguese were the first one to label it as caste system. Priests, warriors, traders and farmers , and at the bottom were labourers and service providers. It wasn't really a part of Hinduism at first but it did began at the same time as Hinduism and remained in Indian for thousands of years even when the Aryan leaders were replace. It was abolished in 1950 when Indian became a democratic republic.  

Note: One should be careful while reading about the Aryans. The theory that states that Aryans invaded India in ancient times is still contested being argued by the scholars and historians are divided over it.

8. Why the Tet Offensive considered the turning point in the Vietnam War?
g100num [7]
The Tet Offensive is considered the turning point in the war for two reasons: first because it almost decimated south Vietnam and it changed how most Americans viewed the war. So, the Tet Offensive occurred during the Vietnamese New year called Tet. A week-long cease fire occurred so the Vietnamese could celebrate this holiday, but north Vietnam had their fingers crossed behind their back and attacked over 100 south Vietnamese cities simultaneously. This was a major loss for the American side because they couldn't recapture the cities for many months afterward. Back in the United states, Americans were seeing the horrors of war on television and this was kind of the smack in the head for many Americans to wonder why are we here? Why are we in Vietnam? President Lyndon Johnson was blamed for this and his popularity plummeted causing him to announce that he would not be running for a second term as president.

What happened to the Tokugawa Shogunate as a result of Japanese isolationism? What came after?
iogann1982 [59]

Answer: an’s Tokugawa (or Edo) period, which lasted from 1603 to 1867, would be the final era of traditional Japanese government, culture and society before the Meiji Restoration of 1868 toppled the long-reigning Tokugawa shoguns and propelled the country into the modern era. Tokugawa Ieyasu’s dynasty of shoguns presided over 250 years of peace and prosperity in Japan, including the rise of a new merchant class and increasing urbanization. To guard against external influence, they also worked to close off Japanese society from Westernizing influences, particularly Christianity. But with the Tokugawa shogunate growing increasingly weak by the mid-19th century, two powerful clans joined forces in early 1868 to seize power as part of an “imperial restoration” named for Emperor Meiji. The Meiji Restoration spelled the beginning of the end for feudalism in Japan, and would lead to the emergence of modern Japanese culture, politics and society.
