In 610 CE, the prophet Muhammad has a vision that ultimately led to the creation of Islam. However, when Muhammad died in 632 CE, people disagreed over who should succeed him as caliph. The Sunnis believed that Abu Bakr (his successor) was the right choice, which the Shiites disagreed, believing that the next caliph should've been Ali, Muhammad's brother in law. Still to this day, there is a definite split, and while they both have the same fundamental beliefs, neither get along well. This issue is especially prevalent in the Middle East where the majority of people are Sunnis, however the Shiites do not want them to hold power, so rebellion occurs. Likewise, when the Shiites gain power, the Sunnis rebel. The terrorist group ISIS is technically fighting for the Sunnis, however it is important to note that they practice a very radical form and do not represent the beliefs of most Muslims.

What changes contributed to the massive population growth in Europe from 1800–1900? Select all that apply. (3 choices!)

Aleks [24]

I'd go with C, D and F. The main causes of population growth had to do with diet and hygiene and health care.
The Agricultural Revolution (which started in the 17th century) led to better food production and thus better diet and nutrition for people, so healthier lives.
The Industrial Revolution (beginning in the mid 18th century) pushed cities to create better sanitation methods to avoid cholera and other disease epidemics.
And the ongoing advances in medicine ever since the Scientific Revolution were doing their part also to increase lifespans.
