Answer:

In 1506 King João I of Kongo (the name Nzinga a Nkuwu took upon his conversion) died, and potential rivals lined up to take over the kingdom. Kongo was an elective rather than a hereditary monarchy, so Afonso was not guaranteed the throne. Afonso was assisted in his attempt to become king by his mother, who kept news of João's death a secret, and arranged for Afonso to return to the capital city of Mbanza Kongo and gather his followers. When the death of the king was finally announced, Afonso was already in the city.

"A final piece of incidental information concerns the presence of Christianity. Although it is sometimes believed that Christianity did not survive the reign of Afonso, an impression created in part by the slanderous correspondence of Jesuit missionaries and São Tomé officials written against Diogo, in fact, all the actors appear as fairly solid Christians. For example, when he first broke the plan to Afonso, Dom Pedro asked him first to swear on a holy Bible to keep it a secret (gol. 2v). Furthermore, Diogo apparently observed the right of Christian asylum in a church enough to allow Pedro to operate from a church for years after his desposition, even though officials from that same church were important witnesses in the trial and obviously played a significant part in revealing the plot (fols. 2r-2v; 4v; 5r-5v; 8). Both Pedro and Diogo respected the decisions of the Pope in the question of succession, and both thought to obtain the requisite bulls recognizing them as rulers of Kongo."

Write two short paragraphs. The first paragraph should summarize how Islam spread. The second paragraph should describe the impo
DedPeter [7]
Islam spread in a variety of ways. In the beginning, Islam spread through conquest. Muhammad and his followers took the city of Mecca and continued to expand militarily. After, Islam spread mainly through diplomacy and trade. People in the Umayyad and Abbasid caliphates were given special privileges for converting to Islam, and Muslim books and missionaries were sent on boats in the Indian Ocean Trade route.

The vast amounts of trade, both on land (primarily through the trans-Saharan trade routes) and sea (through the Indian Ocean Maritime route) allowed for Islam to prosper throughout Asia and Africa. Books were transported, along with newly devout merchants themselves, across the Eastern world. The rich lands of Arabia and Eastern Africa allowed for the Islamic nations to have a strong holding in trade.
