Answer:

C. She violently suppressed a Sikh independence movement.

Explanation:

The supression of the Sikh movement for independence caused much resentment , especially in the state of Punjab and among Sikh communities around the world.

What infuriated the Sikhs was the military attack on the Golden Temple complex at Amritsar, the sacrest place of Sikhism, on June 6, 1984. A Sikh fundamentalist religious leader, Sant Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale,   had turned the temple complex into a fortress and called for a separate state, Khalistan. Indira Ghandi opted for a force solution and launched Operation Blue Star. Akal Takht, one of the main buildings, was the target of tanks and was heavily damaged.

Six months after the bloody operation, Indira Ghandi was assasinated by two of her bodyguards. They were Sikhs and were outraged for her orders to send the army to the complex.

Describe the rise and fall of Islam in Africa and Asia
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Rise

The rise of Islam in Africa and Asia was a consequences of years of military and political strategies as well as missionary work. After the Arab peninsula was united under one leadership of the prophet of Islam, there was enough stability and funding to expand abroad.

Islam grew out of a region that is correctly identified as the Middle East, completely in between both Africa and vast Asia.

The natural expansion of the religion took place in Palestine and to the east in, Syria and Persia up til modern-day Pakistan.

On the west, the expansion was naturally in Egypt and North Africa.

Fall

While Islam never 'Fell' out of Africa, there was a marked decline in Islamic Empires. This was mostly due to European powers who were scrambling for Africa. This saw the English, French, Belgians all conquer large parts of the land and use them for slaves and other trades.

Why was slavery profitable in the South?
mart [117]
Id say C but in reality it was more profitable because farmers had to pay slaves next to nothing if not anything and could have multiple workers in poor conditions so mass amounts of free workers saved them money and they could work them 24 hours a day until they dropped making the process go faster producing more than other competing farms. A sad truth from our past.. hope this helps!

Which of the following issues was often a problem for local farmers in a colonized region?
vova2212 [387]
The option is D.



The best example of this is colonial India, where several famines happened under British Rule, being the first major of it in 1770, in the region of Bengal, where about

a quarter or a third of the population starved to death in a ten-month period, and East India Company's raising of taxes to farmers disastrously coincided with this, exporting

the majority of the crops to Europe, and leaving poor most of the population that was employed in agriculture in that moment.
