daser333 [38]

Salutary neglect, policy of the British government from the early to mid-18th century regarding its North American colonies under which trade regulations for the colonies were laxly enforced and imperial supervision of internal colonial affairs was loose as long as the colonies remained loyal to the British government and contributed to the economic profitability of Britain. This “salutary neglect” contributed involuntarily to the increasing autonomy of colonial legal and legislative institutions, which ultimately led to American independence.

Tell me everything you know about mao zedong
gregori [183]
Mao was born on December 26, 1893 in Shaoshan village, Hunan Province, China. His father, Mao Yichang, was a formerly impoverished peasant who had become one of the wealthiest farmers in Shaoshan. Growing up in rural Hunan, Mao described his father as a stern disciplinarian, who would beat him and his three siblings, the boys Zemin and Zetan, as well as an adopted girl, Zejian. Mao's mother, Wen Qimei, was a devout Buddhist who tried to temper her husband's strict attitude. Mao too became a Buddhist, but abandoned this faith in his mid-teenage years.

In 1948 the united nations divided the land Palestine between a arabs and Jews. Which nation was created by is action
DanielleElmas [232]

In 1948,the United Nations divided the land Palestine between an Arab and Jews.United Nations made Palestine and Israel,two independent nations,side by side,in 1948.So we can say that Israel was created by this action of land in 1948.

The modern conflict between Jews and Arabs dates back to the 1910s,when both groups laid claim to the British controlled territory.

The Jews were Zionists,recent emigrants from Europe and Russia who came to the ancient homeland of the Jews to establish a Jewish national state.

The native Palestinian Arabs sought to stem Jewish immigration and set up an Islamic Muslim Palestinian non secular state.

In 1929,Arabs and Jews openly fought in Palestine,and Britain attempted to limit Jewish immigration as a means of appeasing the Arabs.As a result of the Holocaust in Europe,many Jews illegally entered Palestine during World War 2.
