History
1 answer:
ehidna [41]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Answered below

Explanation:

The silk road whose name was derived from the popular trade in silk, was a connection of trade routes which linked the east to the west. It was important to the cultural, political, economic and religious communications between these regions in the 18th century. Some of the places connected were south Asia, southeast Asia, east Asia, east Africa, Persia and southern Europe. The silk road was important to the development of these regions.

The common hazards the traders of the silk road faced were bandits. Bandits were a threat as expensive products like gold were transported through these roads. Another hazard was the difficult terrain and mountains the caravans had to navigate. Next was the deserts and sandstorms.

To overcome the bandits challenge, the traders traveled with their own defense forces. Traders wore thick coverings to protect from the sandstorms.

Which of the following farming practices contributed to the economic downturn? Select the two correct
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

  • Many Farmers sold their Land and Farming equipment ( B )
  • Many Farmers borrowed money against the profits of future crops ( D )

Explanation:

These farming practices were very bad practices that lead to economic downturns because it resulted mostly to drastic reduction of agricultural produce and availability of food in the open market which might lead to importation of food that would have been produced locally and add to the country's GDP.

Farmers selling off their Land and Farming equipment is not a good farming practice because it means that the farmer is no longer into farming leading to decrease in potential agricultural produce in the market.

Farmers borrowing money against the profits of his future crops is a very bad farming practice because the profits were supposed to be used to invest into the farm and not to service loans.
