Following the 2000 presidential election, the Bush campaign appealed to the Florida Supreme Court’s decision to allow a hand recount.

One of the most controversial US presidential elections in modern times was the George W. Bush vs. Al Gore election of 2000. The election was to be decided in the state of Florida, where the candidate's Bush brother was the governor of the state. The results of the election were so close in the state of Florida, that Al Gore's campaign asked for a hand recount of the ballots. That is when the Bush campaign appealed to the Florida Supreme Court’s decision to allow a hand recount. The court decision was to suspend the hand count of the ballots.

What events or conditions led to a widespread Indian demand for complete independence from Great Britain?

Serhud [2]

Answer:

Events or conditions led to a widespread Indian demand for complete independence from Great

Explanation:

Extreme Economic Exploitation : Various sectors of economy were destroyed - Agriculture through Zamindari system & forced commercialisation ; Industry through decline of handicrafts & no state initiative for modern industries ; Trade sector through making India an exporter of primary goods from Britain & importer of finished goods to Britain.

Extreme Social Exploitation : Indians were looked down upon , disrespected & humiliated under British Rule. Their religious sentiments were attacked, in a war Indian (hindu & muslim soldiers) were forced to use rifles made of cow & pig flesh (which are sacred to them). This led to initial revolt of 1857

Authoritarian Rule Style : This is an extension to above, govt had monopoly over decision irrespective of Indian public opinion. They prohibited people from extracting salt from sea. This led to Salt Satyagraha revolt (march).

Many other violent inhumane activities against Indian population, like Jallianwala Bagh Massacre - fuelled the fire of revolt & made India demand complete independence from Great Britain.

What were the Christians' role during the Jewish Revolt during the 1st century? Were they involved? And what did the Romans' des

Leokris [45]

BACKSTORY

For perspective, the beginning of the 1st century is when Jesus Christ was alive. The Jewish people at the time were being harshly ruled over by the Roman Empire and King Herod. this gave rise to many different groups of people.

You had the Pharisees that believed that God would save and free them because they were his chosen people.

You had the Sadducees that chose to cooperate with the Roman Empire.

You had the zealots that believed God wanted them to revolt against the Roman Empire.

You had the Herodions that were chill with King Herod.

And finally, you had the Essenes who wanted the Messiah to come and lead them in a battle against the Roman Empire.

Basically, there was a ton of division among the Jews, which started to create a lot of tension among them. When Jesus came, many of the Jews supported him, but many did not as there were so many different types of Jews around, and the Jews that didn't like him had a lot of power, which is what led him to be crucified.

The people who supported Jesus Christ were now known as Christians, and the people who didn't were still part of the Jewish faith.

Then, Rome got a new emperor named Nero and he was a horrible person to both the Christians and the Jews which got everybody really angry, so they started to protest the Romans like crazy. Then, a local governor named Florus stormed Jerusalem with armies and stole tons of stuff and took the lives of thousands of innocent people. Everybody got super angry at each other because of these Jerusalem conflicts.

Then, the Gentiles (people who didn't believe in God) got super angry at the Jews and took the lives of thousands of them, and then there were many more horrible massacres, totaling into the hundred thousands.

Then, the Romans ended up taking over Jerusalem and destroying The Temple. It was extremely horrible, costing probably millions of Jews their lives.

CHRISTIAN INFLUENCE

Now that we know the basic backstory, let's think about what the Christians did. What were they doing? Well, Paul was a a preacher of Christianity, and he was going out and about spreading Christ's gospel. Really, they weren't doing anything at all with the revolts. They were not involved at all. Jesus had prophesied of them, so they scattered, which is why Christianity is much more widespread than Judaism. Most Jews still live in Jerusalem because they mostly stayed put and endured through the crazy riots.

DESTRUCTION OF JERUSALEM

The destruction of Jerusalem most definitely made the Christians believe that Jesus was the Messiah as he had warned them to leave Jerusalem many years before, which was an important revelation that helped save their lives.

Why is Islam predominate in northern Africa today?

Paladinen [302]

Islam entered the African continent from North African countries such as Morocco and Egypt, and was one of the first regions to be conquered by the early Arab-Islamic expansion (7th and 8th centuries). From the tenth to the sixteenth centuries, Muslim merchants contributed to the emergence of important kingdoms in West Africa, which flourished thanks to the caravan trade that crossed the Sahara into contact with the steppes and savannas of West Sudan and central Africa.
