The cosmological principle has first been clearly stated by <em>Isaac Newton </em>in the "<em>Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica" </em>in 1687. He proved with mathematical proofs on detailed observational data the principle of “universal gravitation”. The oscillating theory is a cosmological model which suggests that the universe we live in is a one of an innumerable series.
Question: Which statement is true?

The cotton gin was innovated by Eli Whitney and is important to the 1800d because of what it did to the innovation of cotton production in the south. Prior to the machine, enslaved people were forced to hand process cotton, now with the machine, more cotton was able to be processed faster which allowed for slavery to continue and expand in the south so that more cotton could be sold to Britian (who did not have the land for cotton growing) and the northern factories to be made into clothes (increasing production of the industrial revolution especially with the Lowell mills). This will be important later with the Civil War as the south believes that Britian will support them because of their trading history and need for cotton (which of course is not done, due to racial tensions between the newly freed persons of Britian and the enslaved system of the South).
The correct answer is ARMENIANS.
During WWI, The Ottoman Empire slaughtered 1.5 millon Armenians within the empire.
During the renaissance, art, religion, science, technology and philosophy all changed.
In art, perspective and porportion made art more realistic looking. The subject matter of art also changed. No longer was all the art religious. For example, artists started to sketch nature and Leonardo da Vinci painted his famous Mona Lisa.
Before the renaissance, there was only one religion in Europe: Roman Catholic Christian. The renaissance/reformation changed that. Groups such as the Protestant, Lutherean, Anglican, and Calvinist religions started to pop up. They had different beliefs, practices, and ideologys, even though they are all branches of Christianity today.
Scientists like Galileo changed popular held beliefs about science. A scientific method for testing theories was formulated. The invention of the printing press ensured that information could be spread quicker and cheaper.
Finally, the renaissance is marked by a change in thinking. Previously, most people were fatalists, which meant that they believed their destinies were pre-chosen and nothing they did would change them. New thinkers called humanists believed that humans had freedom of choice and weren't as concerned with spiritual matters.
