Answer:

A. Both take root from the Buddha's teachings.

Explanation:

Buddha, also known as Siddharta Gautama, was a monk and sage from ancient India, and whose teachings were the basis of Buddhism. Buddhism is a religion and philosophy of life that says that life is suffering, that the root of suffering is the desire and that, in order to heal the suffering, it is necessary to stop desiring. Only then it will be possible to achieve a state of spiritual illumination.

Eventually, <u>Buddhism split into two large branches</u><u>: </u><u>Theravada and Mahayana</u>. Theravada sticks more to the initial phase of Buddhism and it is widespread throughout India, Sri Lanka, and Southeast Asia. Mahayana developed many centuries later after the life of Buddha, it stresses the importance of spiritual teachers (Bodhisattva), and it is widespread throughout China, Korea, and Japan. In spite of these differences, <u>both branches have a common root in Buddhas's teachings.</u>

How do you think Native Americans would have responded to news about the Treaty of Tordesillas and the Line of Demarcation
grandymaker [24]

For Native Americans at the time, it would have been next to impossible to understand something like the Treaty of Tordesillas. This treaty intended to partition tracts of land that the Europeans did not even know whether they existed, an action that may have looked like sheer madness and even dishonorable, for the Europeans claimed possession of lands they had not conquered by the force of their arms.Maybe, after some thought and analysis,  Native Americans would have felt outraged as a man living in such a distant place, the Pope in Rome, who had no authority whatsoever for them, made the decision of handing over lands, people,wealth, etc, to two different groups of Europeans. Perhaps, other Native Americans, once they managed to understand that agreement so odd to them, might have found it laughable and it might have prompted them to challenge to take what was their own over their dead bodies.

How did life change for Native Americans in 1953?
melomori [17]

During World War II, Native Americans formed an intertribal group they called the National Congress of AmericanIndians (NCAI). They opposed the 1953 laws, including the relocation program, describing them as an attempt tokill off their people. The NCAI as well as other groups that formed later would seek legal means to prevent thetaking of lands and land rights. Some groups were more militant and used the phrase "Red Power" or "NativeAmerican Power."Their efforts did grab the attention of Congress, leading to laws protecting Native Americanrights in education, health care, and child custody rules. The Supreme Court decision Menominee Tribe v. UnitedStates in 1968 ruled that states could not take away Native American rights to hunt and fish on lands theyreceived through past treaty agreements.
