The Arab-Israeli wars were the conflicts fought between Israel and the Arab nations throughout the 20th century. These conflicts started with the creation of the State of Israel in 1948 and were motivated by the control of Palestine. In all, four conflicts were disputed between Israelis and the Arab nations.
This first war started after the proclamation of the State of Israel became known as the First Arab-Israeli War. This conflict lasted until January 1949 and started when forces from Egypt, Syria, Transjordan (now Jordan), Lebanon, Iraq, in addition to Palestinian forces, organized an attack against Israel.
The attack by the Arabs began with bombings on Tel Aviv, the capital of Israel, in addition to ground attacks by Arab armies. There was, however, a big difference in training between the two forces. Better preparedness by Israeli forces gave them an advantage in this conflict.
The war ended only on January 9, 1949, when the Arab nations signed an armistice with Israel, which emerged as the great winner of that war. At the end of the First Arab-Israeli War, the territory of Israel increased by about 1/3, and the Israelis came to dominate about 79% of the territory of Palestine
Answer:
A
Explanation:
During the 1700s and 1800s, colonists took part in the American Slave Trade, where they drove thousands of Africans out of their home countries and forced them to work for the Americans. Due to the color of the Africans' skin, colonists thought that they were inferior to Americans/whites and that colonists could then work Africans without any pay.
This kind of work not only gave colonists a sense of freedom because they no longer had to endure the backbreaking work, but it also relieved them of financial burden since they didn't have to pay their slaves.
Look for an answer choice that matches the above description. Only A makes sense.
B is wrong because people were not required to have slaves. They could if they wanted to.
C is wrong because it was not illegal to pay slaves; colonists just chose not to because that would benefit them more.
D is wrong because it was not illegal for others to do work; in fact, many colonists did work on their own farms before, during, and after the Slave Trade.
Hope this helps!
Because they were better (still editing)
After the death of Muhammad, he was succeeded by 'the <em>Rashidun</em>', a 30-year reign of the four 'rightly guided caliphs'. During such reign, which lasted from 632 CE to 656 CE, the expansion through the territories outside Arabia started.
Eventually, under the influence of the political systems of these territories, the leadership became hereditary, and the Umayyad dinasty, who moved to Damascus to excercise power, ruled from 661 CE to 750 CE. This dinasty achieved the greatest expansion of the Muslim Empire in a lapse of 89 years, converting the Caucasus, Transoxiana, Sindh, the Maghreb, and the Iberian Peninsula to Islam, as well as occupying 5.79 million square miles of territory and including 62 million people. It was the fifth largest empire in history regarding area and proportion of the world's population.
