Answer:

The history of the Jews and Judaism in the Land of Israel is about the history and religion of the Jewish people who originated in the Land of Israel, and have maintained physical, cultural, and religious ties to it ever since. First emerging in the later part of the 2nd millennium BCE as an outgrowth of southern Canaanites,[1][2][3][4] the Hebrew Bible claims that a United Israelite monarchy existed starting in the 10th century BCE. The first appearance of the name "Israel" in the non-Biblical historic record is the Egyptian Merneptah Stele, circa 1200 BCE. During the biblical period, two kingdoms occupied the highland zone, the Kingdom of Israel (Samaria) in the north, and the Kingdom of Judah in the south. The Kingdom of Israel was conquered by the Neo-Assyrian Empire (circa 722 BCE), and the Kingdom of Judah by the Neo-Babylonian Empire (586 BCE). Initially exiled to Babylon, upon the defeat of the Neo-Babylonian Empire by the Achaemenid Empire under Cyrus the Great (538 BCE), many of the Jewish elite returned to Jerusalem, building the Second Temple.

In 332 BCE the Macedonian Greeks under Alexander the Great conquered the Achaemenid Empire, which included Yehud (Judea), starting a long religious struggle that split the Jewish population into traditional and Hellenized components.

In 165 BCE, after the religion-driven Maccabean Revolt, the independent Hasmonean Kingdom was established. In 64 BCE the Romans conquered Judea, turning it into a Roman province. Although coming under the sway of various empires and home to a variety of ethnicities, the area of ancient Israel was predominantly Jewish until the Jewish–Roman wars of 66–136 CE, during which the Romans expelled most of the Jews from the area and replaced it with the Roman province of Syria Palaestina, beginning the Jewish diaspora. After this time, Jews became a minority in most regions, except Galilee, and the area became increasingly Christian after the 3rd century, although the percentages of Christians and Jews are unknown, the former perhaps coming to predominate in urban areas, the latter remaining in rural areas.[5] Jewish settlements declined from over 160 to 50 by the time of the Muslim conquest. Michael Avi-Yonah says that Jews constituted 10–15% of Palestine's population by the time of the Sasanian conquest of Jerusalem in 614,[6] while Moshe Gil says that Jews constituted the majority of the population until the 7th century Muslim conquest (638 CE).[7]

In 1099 the Crusaders conquered Jerusalem and nearby coastal areas, losing and recapturing it for almost 200 years until their final ouster from Acre in 1291. In 1517 the Ottoman Empire conquered it, ruling it until the British conquered it in 1917, and ruled it under the British Mandate for Palestine until 1948, when the Jewish State of Israel was proclaimed in part of the ancient land of Israel, which was made possible by the Zionist movement and its promotion of mass Jewish immigration.

Why did additional states secede after the Battle of Fort Sumter?
aksik [14]
The second group of southern states seceded after the attack at Fort Sumter. Four additional states left at this time. These states left because they had concerns about what would happen to slavery now that the fighting had begun. They waited until the Civil War began before leaving the Union.’!!!!!!!!!!

Which Texan leader was most in favor of annexation by the United states?
yawa3891 [41]

The correct answer is:

Sam Houston

Explanation:

Samuel Houston (1793-1863) was an American politician and lawyer who played a big role in the annexation of Texas to the United States.

<em>Houston was the main leader of the Battle of San Jacinto</em>, were <em>Santa Ana was forced to recognize</em><em> </em><em>Texas as an independent nation</em>. After that, Sam Houston was elected President of the Republic of Texas.

Although some people in Texas did want to be part of the United States<em>, a lot of Americans were already living in Texas</em> and wanted to become a state because being part of the United States Nation would get better protection, economic trades, and other benefits. Sam Houston was one of them, one argument Houston made was that Texas could not defend itself against hostile foreign powers.

Texas annexation was delayed because<u> Northern states did not wanted slavery to expand and Texas was a slave state</u>, Houston thought that if European countries were interested in Texas, the United States would admit them, so he sent J. Pinkney Henderson to England and France to negotiate trade alliances and secure Texas recognition.

However, it was until Sam Houston's second term that annexation was achieved, after long negotiations with United States President John Tyler, The House of Representatives voted to make Texas a state, and on December 1845 James K. Polk, the following President of United States signed the annexation of Texas.
