What changed in the Holy Land between 550 CE and 750 CE? How might this have affected relationships between Jewish people, Roman
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

Between those years, the Holy Land went from being part of the Byzantine Empire, to being part of the Muslim Empires or Caliphates that formed since the death of Muhammad.

Explanation:

This affected relationships between people from the religions listed in the question, because while before, christians were the ruling group in the land, muslims became the rulers after their conquests.

The christians, both catholic and orthodox, saw Muslim control over the Holy Land as outrageous, because of precisely the fact that this land is considered Holy for Christians, because it is the place where Jesus was born and lived.

For this reason, from the 11th century onwards, the Pope launched a series of wars with the goal or retaking the Holy Land from Muslim control. These wars are known as the Crusades.

Using the documents provided, evaluate the extent to which the Chinese embraced Westernization in the period 1850 to 1920 CE.
Nadya [2.5K]

During the period of 1850 to 1920 CE, China embraced Westernization in a way that it had never done before. The most important catalyst for this change were the Opium Wars. The First Opium War ended in 1840 with the defeat of China, and the Treaty of Nanking (1842). The treaty ceded Hong Kong to Great Britain and allowed the importation of opium. As the use of opium increased, many social problems followed, including social unrest and the weakening of the government.

This situation created the conditions for many other problems, such as the Taiping Rebellion, the Punti–Hakka Clan Wars, the Nian Rebellion, the Dungan Revolt, and the Panthay Rebellion. The cost of putting down these rebellions further weakened the government. A weak government was unable to stop the influence of imperialist nations. Nations such as Japan, France, Great Britain, Germany and Russia wanted to expand their sphere of influence in China, and this influence encouraged westernization within the country. Westernization also developed due to trade, as China began to depend more on Western supplies to defend against its many internal conflicts.

Hoochie [10]
It would be under the "Office of Administration" that the chief of staff and press secretary reside, since both of these positions require the holders to have very close contact with the President.
