History
1 answer:
alexgriva [62]4 years ago
4 0
Jamaica gained it's Independence from Britain in 1962, though is was ruled by the Spanish for over 100 years prior to the British taking control in 1655. Britain held onto Jamaica for a whopping 307 years. Independence was and is considered a good thing by many Jamaicans, but in the modern era, almost 60% of Jamaican citizens say they'd prefer to be ruled by the British again, very different from most former British colonies.

What was the effect of constantine moving the capital to constantinople
Travka [436]
He did it because the empire was too big for one seat of administration to manage. Also the Easter (Greek) part of the empire resented the rule of the western (Latin) part of it, so this was also to appease the people of the eastern part of the empire. 

<span>It's a misconception that Constantine "moved" the capital, he founded another one. </span>

<span>The effects aren't as clear cut though. </span>
<span>With now two capitals competing for resources and attention, one had to be neglected over time, and since Constantinople was the hub of all commerce from the Far East and the western world, Rome lost the prestige it once had. Also Rome. Population also was affected by this move, Byzantium (which ultimately became Constantinople) was just a village before Constantine had his "vision" to build another capital there, after the administrative workers and artisans and merchants moved there, Rome started to lose its intellectual population, leaving behind poor and uneducated people. </span>
<span>City taxes took a hit, since fewer and poorer people translated to less revenue there was less money to maintain the city. Also Rome was the seat of the Catholic Church which was competing for influence with the Emperor himself, so the government did it's best to isolate him. </span>

<span>But the more lasting effect was the ultimate separation of the Western (Latin) and Eastern (Greek) roman empires. This division precipitated the fall of the western half bringing with it the fall of civilization in Western Europe, bringing the Dark Ages and leaving the Church as the only beacon of civilization in Western Europe, which is why western science lagged behind eastern science. </span>

<span>But this also helped preserve the Roman Empire for a thousand more years, since like the old saying goes, Rome didn't fall, it's just moved. The Byzantine Empire lasted until 1456 thanks to the move made by Constantine more than a thousand years before. </span>

<span>There are more effects, but to analyze each and every one of them could fill up a book.</span>

Limiting contact with foreigners was the main goal of chinese. true/false
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

true

Explanation:

In the beginning, the Chinese were naturally isolated from the rest of the world. The natural barriers were promiment, mountaints, rivers, deserts, were the main hinderance elements to get into Chinese territories.

The Chinese were so isolated they came to believe they were unique and center of the world. Its experience closing borders and limiting foreigners were deeply motivated by a desire to prevent external influences in underminig traditional values and society.

Perhaps this is best explained with the Himalayas in the west and the Gobi deserts in the north that are have both very unhabitable conditions.

Some foreigners traveled individually to China, well known example is Marco polo's travels. They were mainly motivated for trade  and exploration reasons.

The Mongol invasion ( ‎1205–1279) added to an isolationist foreign policy.

Dinasties followed the Ming dynasty to isolate. This came as far as to banning maritime shipping.
