Why did Bangladesh separate from Pakistan?

History
1 answer:
mash [69]3 years ago
8 0

Initially, the Indian subcontinent was partitioned to two nations, Pakistan and India, with Pakistan being the Muslim one, and India being the Hindu one. Pakistan though had an eastern and western part. These two parts were separated by over 1,000 miles, thus they were very far away from each other. On top of that, the eastern and the western part had totally different cultures. This resulted in the eastern part to try and separate itself and form its own nation. This was done through the Liberation War, which was a very bloody one, but eventually it achieved the goal of Eastern Pakistan to become an independent nation. Once independent, the newly formed nation changed its name into Bangladesh, which has remained the name of the nation ever since.

Which of the following was contained in the Adams-Onis treaty?
fiasKO [112]

Answer:

The correct answer is D. In the Adams-Onis Treaty, Spain gave up all clams to land north of the 42nd parallel.

Explanation:

The Adams-Onis Treaty was the result of the negotiation between Spain and the United States to fix the border between the American nation and the then viceroyalty of New Spain.

The border was set beyond the Sabine River and Arkansas to the 42nd parallel north. As a result, Spain renounced its possessions beyond that latitude, including the territory of Oregon. It also ceded definitively the Floridas, Louisiana and the navigation by the Mississippi river. The Spanish Crown remained the sole sovereign of Texas, territory that the United States claimed as part of Louisiana, which was purchased from the French in 1803.

How can you use this Document E to argue that Alexander was great? *
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

Alexander was “great” because he easily conquered a lot of land and established prominent societies, like Alexandria.

Alexander wasn’t “great” because he was egotistical in naming a city after him and conquering land just for greed.

Alexander was “great” because he was smart enough to cross the river and use Porus’ own elephants against him.

Alexander was not “great” because he tricked a ruler and killed many men in war only because he was greedy and wanted more land.

Alexander was most likely very religious, and it seems that in Ancient Greek anyone seeking refuge in a temple should be shown mercy. Also, if Alexander had killed everyone in the city than there would have been no point in conquering the city except for land.
