3 0

Henry Tompkins (or Thomas) Paige Comstock (1820—1870) was an American miner after whom the Comstock Lode was named.

Referred to by history books variously as a "sanctimonious gaffer",[1] an "illiterate prospector",[2] and a "quick-thinking loudmouth",[3] he was known by his contemporaries as "Old Pancake", because he could not be bothered to bake bread.[4]

He was born at Trenton, Ontario. He may have worked as a fur trapper and sheep drover. He came into knowledge of the enormous silver lode which is named after him, but sold out his interest early and did not profit from it. Later he worked as a surveyor and miner, both independently and for a large mining firm, both failing to make his fortune. He committed suicide by his own pistol and is buried in the Sunset Hills Cemetery in Bozeman, Montana.<span>[5]</span>

Which of the following emerged in Western Europe in large part as a reaction to the diplomatic exchanges exemplified in the pass
gulaghasi [49]

Answer: An increased European awareness of important cultural, political, and economic developments in Eastern Asia

Explanation:

William Rubrick was a monk that had been sent by the French King Louis IX to spread Christianity to the Mongol empire which at the time was under the Great Khan, Möngke Khan.

William was very articulate and documented his trip in great detail from Geographic to Socio-economic developments that he encountered. When he reached Karakorum which was the Mongol capital at the time, his detail of the city provided one of the most detailed accounts of it.

It can therefore be said that exchanges such as these helped the people of Western Europe find out more about the cultural, political, and economic developments in Eastern Asia.

The excerpt in question is;

"The next day (25th May) (the Chan) sent his secretaries to me, who said: ‘Our lord sends us to you to say that you are here Christians, Saracens [Muslims] and Tuins. And each of you says that his doctrine is the best, and his writings—that is, books—the truest. So he wishes that you shall all meet together, and make a comparison, each one writing down his precepts, so that he himself may be able to know the truth.’ Then I said: ‘Blessed be God, who put this in the Chan’s heart. But our Scriptures tell us, the servant of God should not dispute, but should show mildness to all; so I am ready, without disputation or contention, to give reason for the faith and hope of the Christians, to the best of my ability.’ They wrote down my words, and carried them back to him. Then it was told the Nestorians that they should look to themselves, and write down what they wished to say, and likewise to the Saracens [Muslims], and in the same way to the Tuins.”

<em>Excerpt from The Journey of William of Rubruck, written by a Franciscan monk sent by King Louis IX of France to the Mongol Empire in 1253.</em>
