Prove the legitimacy of dynastic rule

olasank [31]3 years ago

The Mandate of Heaven was essentially a legitimization tool. By stating that their leadership was not just because they were selected or part of some royal family but instead because of divine choosing greatly strengthened their authority. For example, imagine the emperors before the Mandate of Heaven was established. Besides the obvious fact that they were emperor, there's no real reason that the people should follow their rules (at least no significantly convincing one). Now, on the other hand, the people believed that those rules and demands by their emperor were actually divine.

Explain relationship between the industrial revolution and imperialism. (3 sentences)
amid [387]

Answer:

The industrial revolution was the force behind this New Imperialism, as it created not only the need for Europe to expand, but the power to successfully take and profitably maintain so many colonies overseas. The industrial revolution created the need for Europe to take over colonies around the world.

The Industrial Revolution led to imperialism in ways such as creating the demand for raw materials, which would be turned into products in factories, and providing the means to transport those raw materials with inventions such as the steam engine.
