Changes that could have prevented the northwest rebellion

History

Sedbober [7]2 years ago

In late spring 1885, Métis and Canadian forces clashed in a series of battles in northern Saskatchewan, collectively known today as the Northwest Resistance. The standard Canadian historiography regarding these confrontations has, over the years, tended to attribute full blame to one man—Louis Riel. A perfect example is Tom Flanagan’s Louis ‘David’ Riel: Prophet of the New World, which portrays Riel as a rabble-rousing firebrand who pits a simple clan of erstwhile ‘half-breeds’ against the Dominion of Canada to fulfill his divine mission from God and his delusional quest for glory.1 By portraying Riel as a manipulator, this historiographical myth simultaneously discredits the Métis cause while painting the Canadian government as justified liberators whose rescue efforts free the young nation from the clutches of a megalomaniac.2 Although some evidence points to Riel’s mental instability, he did not drive the Métis to war in 1885. To understand why the Métis and Canada fought in 1885, one has to look beyond Riel at three underlying causes of the conflict. One, the Resistance took place at the height of colonialism, as such it was a product of the Canadian and global imperialism prevalent during that time. Two, Canada never adequately dealt with Métis land claims from the 1870 Manitoba Act, which frustrated the Métis to the point of picking up arms in 1885. Three, drastic economic change and hardship had swept the west and the Métis had no help from the federal government, which increased Métis frustration. Together these factors caused the Northwest Resistance to erupt. Understanding them helps debunk the myth that Riel was the master architect behind 1885.

if You traveled to the Spanish city of Córdoba in the 10th century which of the following would you not find
KonstantinChe [14]

A government free from Islamic influence is not found in the Spanish city of Córdoba in the 10th century.

<u>Explanation:</u>

In the tenth century, in the wake of getting the status of a caliphate, Córdoba encountered a superb prime. As the most populated city in the West, it matched the extraordinary capitals of Islam; inside its points of confinement are upwards of 300 mosques.

Cordoba's Mezquita is the biggest mosque in the whole world, just as the world's biggest sanctuary. In 711 Córdoba was caught and to a great extent crushed by the Muslims. Its recuperation was blocked by ancestral contentions until ʿAbd al-Raḥmān I, an individual from the Umayyad family, acknowledged the initiative of the Spanish Muslims and made Córdoba his capital in 756.
