4. The French and Spanish had already claimed large areas of land leaving the Atlantic coastline open. The coastline did not meet their needs but met the needs of the British by providing farm land, areas for cash crop production, and easy trade access for mercantilism. The British wanted colonies to support their economic system through their colonies and ships would have a shorter trip back and forth to Britain being located on the Atlantic coast.
The English were late to exploration and colonization of the Americas. Their first attempt at colonization at Roanoke failed. However, their second attempt in 1607 at Jamestown was successful. The colony of Virginia provided Great Britain with cash crops in particular, tobacco. The New England colonies were created after Virginia and were attempts by separatists groups to find a place they could practice their faith without persecution. By the mid-1700s, England had established thirteen colonies from current day Maine to Georgia and the Atlantic coast to the Appalachian Mountains.
The author portrays Theseus as a flawed human being. In early adventures, Theseus proved that he was a 'hero' but it wasn't until he slew the minotaur he became a legend, the living embodiment of braveness.
<span>Religious beliefs have
highly influenced the political and hierarchical structures in both Ottoman and
Safavid Persia empires. Although both states were of Islamic religion, they
belonged to different branches, Sunni and Shia. These branches differ over the
choice of Muhammad's successor, which subsequently acquired broader political
significance, as well as theological and juridical dimensions. Sunni Muslims
believed that Muhammad didn’t clearly appoint a successor, which is why there
isn’t hereditary succession law in Ottoman Empire. This contrasts with the Shia
Muslims view, which holds that Muhammad appointed his son-in-law and cousin Ali
ibn Abi Talib to succeed him. They believed that the empire should be led by
direct successor of Muhammad’s line. Differences between these two branches
affected the politics, as Shia Muslims weren’t religiously tolerant to other
confessions and considered them for heretics, even the other branches of Islam.
This resulted in the besieged of Bagdad, which was followed by the massacre of
a large part of its Sunni Muslim inhabitants, as it was endeavored to transform
Baghdad into a purely Shiite city. The besiege of Bagdad was the event that led
to the Ottoman-Safavid war (1623–1639).</span>
