Answer:

The soft black sand is called 'uzura seki' in Japanese, is regarded as consecrated soil, imbued with the blood of about 21,000 Japanese servicemen who perished in the six week long 1945 battle.

Explanation:

The battle of Iwo Jima happened during the World War II between the United States and Japan. The Island of Iwo Jima was a strategic location that the United States used for fighter planes and bombers to land and take off when attacking Japan. The sand of Iwo Jima was the first obstacles that the armies faced. They faced 15-foot-high slopes of soft black volcanic ash.

The American army were bogged down in the soft black volcanic ash of Iwo Jima and this helped the Japanese.

Answer: sample answer:  

Many changes have occurred in the Muslim world since our last ambassador was here. Muslims here have argued among themselves about who is the true successor to the prophet Muhammad, and now instead of one united Islam, the faith is divided between Sunnis and Shi'as. Despite this split, Islam has spread far beyond the Arabian Peninsula. The empire here has spread across the region, into Africa, and even into Southern Europe. The Muslims have made great advancements as well. New works have been produced in medicine and science. Al-Khwarizmi has even discovered a new type of math called algebra. In addition, I think they have made great strides in art and architecture. Grand mosques now appear in cities across the empire.
