1. In what ways can Kipling's poem be interpreted as being ethnocentric and racist?
lyudmila [28]

First of all, it should be mentioned that Rudyard Kipling was a renowned author of short stories and books, among them the famous The Jungle Book, which tells the story of Mogli. In this sense, it is also worth mentioning the advent of Neocolonialism, which used the notion of race domination to justify the capitalist expansion it wished to undertake. Kipling was one of the minds harnessed by Neocolonialism, and his works, which preached the inferiority of non-white people and, consequently, white supremacy, can be considered racist because they aimed at the reduction of individuals based on racial criteria, at the same time time that can be considered ethnocentric because they place the Caucasian European man as the center of the world, superior to the others, and who, therefore, would have legitimacy to govern everything and everyone.

Which statement best describes Africa after world war 2
I am Lyosha [343]

As a "Continent ravaged by a series of revolutionary movements".

After the events of the Second World War, the European countries which held colonies in the African Continent were no longer able to assign economic resources for their adequate maintenance, as they were heavily indebted due to the war. This lack of resources and subsequent mismanagement lead to a series of revolts within the African Colonies, which at the time were French Algeria, Portugues Angola, the Belgian Congo, and British Kenya.

Why did the Polos fear Kublai Khans death?
Igoryamba

Answer:

Kublai Khan was the grandson of Genghis Khan and the founder of the Yuan Dynasty in 13th-century China. He was the first Mongol to rule over China when he conquered the Song Dynasty of southern China in 1279. Kublai (also spelled Kubla or Khubilai) relegated his Chinese subjects to the lowest class of society and even appointed foreigners, such as Venetian explorer Marco Polo, to important positions over Chinese officials. After failed expeditions against Japan and Java, his Mongol dynasty declined toward the end of his reign, and was completely overthrown by the Chinese after his death.
