Answer:

The correct answer is 4. The Battle of Adwa is uncharacteristic of the  Scramble for Africa in that native forces were able to overcome the  superior technology of Europeans.

Explanation:

The Battle of Adwa was fought on March 1, 1896 between Italy and Abyssinia during the first Italian-Abyssinian war. With Italian help, Menelik, prince of Shoa, succeeded in seizing the crown of the emperor. In return, in the Treaty of Ucciali in 1889, he promised to recognize an Italian protectorate over Abyssinia. However, he canceled the agreement after restoring the country's inner peace. That is why Francesco Crispi, the Italian leader, started the war against Abyssinia. On March 25, 1895, Italian troops crossed the border and occupied Adigrat. In September, Menelik II declared formal war against Italy. The Ethiopians won a minor victory at Amba Alagi on December 8. On March 1, 1896, the Italian colonial army of 2,000 men under General Oreste Baratieri was completely dispersed by Ethiopians in the Battle of Adwa. Through the peace in Addis Ababa on October 26, 1896, Italy was forced to renounce the claim for protectorate over the country and also to pay war damages. Abyssinia thus remained the only country in Africa to retain its independence at this time.

<em>The Qin Dynasty was one of the most important dynasties in China because it resulted in the unification the Chinese territories into one kingdom. </em>Led by Qin Shi Huang, it was the shortest dynasty of China and lasted 15 years.

<em>Qin Shi Huang was the first emperor of China</em>, he started to built the Great Wall of China as part of the unification project, he standardized writing and the system of currency among many other achievements, but after three attempts of assassination, Qin Shi Huang became obsessed with immortality and he died after taking an "elixir" (poison) of immortality.

<u>Because Qin Shi Huang didn't like to talk about dead, he didn't left a will and his minister Li Si and Zhao Gao murdered his elder son Fusu,</u> because of his friendship with a general whom they disliked. Afterwards, his second son Hu Hai became the next emperor, although he was not prepared for this position.

People in China were angry because of the tyranny and violence of Qin Shi Huang, so when he died China revolted and the dynasty under Hu Hai collapsed.

egoroff_w [7]
They wanted women to rely on men so they would cut there feet, and unable to do manual labor. Women did not have certain rights as men did. Women were not allowed to fight in battles, own property, make big dissuasions. Lots of stuff us women take for granted today, many women back then would have wished they could be us.
