Answer:

The correct answer is D) Manaus

Explanation:

Manaus is a in Brazil and the capital of the State of Amazonas. It was established by Spanish colonists who named the city after the local Manaos people.

While it was a small trading post for the first few centuries, it came to prominence in the mid 19th Century due to its vast rubber resources.

Why were the Camp David Accords seen as a win for Carter during his Presidency?
mr_godi [17]
The Camp David Accords were a series of agreements signed by Egyptian President Anwar Sadat and Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin following nearly two weeks of secret negotiations at Camp David, the historic country retreat of the president of the United States. President Jimmy Carter brought the two sides together, and the accords were signed on September 17, 1978. The landmark agreement stabilized the fractious relations between Israel and Egypt, though the long-term impact of the Camp David Accords remains up for debate.

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

For almost 30 centuries—from its unification around 3100 B.C. to its conquest by Alexander the Great in 332 B.C.—ancient Egypt was the preeminent civilization in the Mediterranean world.

The success of ancient Egyptian civilization came partly from its ability to adapt to the conditions of the Nile River valley for agriculture. The predictable flooding and controlled irrigation of the fertile valley produced surplus crops, which supported a more dense population, and social development and culture.
