How were the Incan people able to build their empire in such challenging terrain?

History
1 answer:
mote1985 [20]3 years ago
4 0

Explanation:

The Inca employed a technique called as terrace farming to overcome this challenge. They created terraces by erecting barriers on slopes and filling them with soil. Terraces are a series of broad stairs built into the side of mountains. The hilly topography might have been too difficult for farmers to irrigate, plough, and produce even without terraces.

How did colonial powers govern their colonies?
Dmitrij [34]
I am going to assume here you are referring to the 'Scramble of Africa' that happened in the second half of the 19th century, as the European power did not really control the African regions before then. 

The methods contexts did differ per colonising power and colonised region, but it boils down to the following factors:

- superior firepower, equipment and recourses; having better guns, armour, communication technology, and supply routes, made the Europeans a formidable enemy that the various tribes simply could not counter.

- co-opting the local elites; a tried and tested method for centuries, this has always been the way smart conquerers could maintain control over a region with minimal fuss and expenditur.

<span>- divide and conquer; conflict between the many tribes of Africa has been a constant for centuries in the continent. The Europeans could easily manipulate the various tribes against each other to prevent a unified resistance from rising up. </span>

<span>- a willingness to use extreme forms of terror; the Europeans might have been all high and mighty back home about their Enlightment and democracy, but in Africa they were more than willing to use forms of terror that would make most contemporary dictators feel a little uneasy. Case in point, the widespread killing and mutilation when quotas were not met in king Leopold II's Congo.</span>

ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

67

Explanation:

Original weight: x

Original weight reduced by 45 carats: x - 45

Final weight: 67 carats

x - 45 = 67

Solve for x by adding 45 to both sides.

Once you get x, subtract 45 and you should get 67 again.

blondinia [14]
The answer is:

B. A focus on building their economies

and

<span> D. More freedom of speech</span>


The Arab Spring began in Tunisia mostly due to the poor conditions of the average person. Poverty was rampant while the leaders lived in luxury.

Pro-Democracy movements want better economies that can provide for everyone and more freedom of speech, which in most of these dictatorships, is severally clamped down on.
