History

Answer:

It Depleted the Mughal empire's wealth.

Explanation:

Taj Mahal was commissioned around 1632. At that time, the approximate cost of building Taj Mahal is around 32 Million Rupees. If that amount is converted to present day value, it cost the Mughal empire around 700 Billion Rupees or approximately 956 million US dollar.

Meanwhile , the annual  earning of the whole empire is only around half of that amount.

This led to various economics problems and force the Mughal empire to cut down their military's budget and make them weaker. Eventually, it led to the decline of the Mughal empire.

Rudik [331]

Raid is looting and making it an adventure as the pirates do, mostly the angel's work were looted and taken back by Vikings to their homes.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Vikings were the literal pirates who used to trade and were colonists too. The Vikings are mostly thought of to be Scandinavians but their ancestry had much more involvement. It was not until 793, that those were heard of in British history. The one who lurks in the bay is said to be a Viking.

They used to perform loot and call it a raid as the loot was not just because of theft purpose but because it was pride and honor to them to perform such an adventure. They used to loot for artistic metalwork and angel's work which could from antiques and of which they could be given honor.

Case: Brown v. Board of Education, Topeka -How might life be different for society today if the court had ruled the opposite way
andrezito [222]
Uh to put it simply, schools would likely still be segregated. SCOTUS (Supreme Court) ruled in Brown v. Board of Education that U.S. state laws establishing racial segregation in public schools are unconstitutional, even if the segregated schools are otherwise equal in quality. So, if not for Brown, schools would likely still be segregated. You can rewrite this and put it into your own words if need be.
