The Underground Railroad wasn't a real railroad, but a network of courageous people who helped slaves secretly travel from the South to the North.

Why were the Arabs able to conquer territory quickly.
alekssr [168]
They weren't so successful at conquering Europe or China. Of course, one can blame the long supply lines, but in these cases their adversaries were also determined to repulse them.

In contrast, Byzantium and Persia were exhausted from mutual warfare. Tribes related by kinship to Muslim Arabs had served as mercenaries during this period, so there was a lot of tactical knowledge available.
