History

8 0

Answer:

- to Build Tombs

- To prevent flooding

Explanation:

Tombs were a strong part of their culture. Egyptians believe that after death, the spirit could wander to foreign places that might make the souls lost to the point of no return. They believe that by building tombs, these souls always have some sort of place to guide them where they can always come back to. Practical Geometry is needed to built large sized tombs for the nobles.

On top of that, they rely on agriculture as their main source of income. Often times, rains might cause the river to flood and destroy the agricultural land near it. So they use geometry to built proper dams and developed an irrigation system to allocate the water to a land that located prerry far from the river.

To what extent did feudalism contribute to the french revolution
Leto [7]

I can't really answer your question (as I don't really know enough about 18th century France), but I just want to clear up an (understandable) misconception about Feudalism in your question.

The French revolution was adamant and explicit in its abolition of 'feudalism'. However, the 'feudalism' it was talking about had nothing at all to do with medieval 'feudalism' (which, of course, never existed). What the revolutionaries had in mind, in my own understanding of it, was the legally privileged position of the aristocracy/2nd estate. This type of 'feudalism' was a creation of early modern lawyers and, as a result, is better seen as a product of the early-modern monarchical nation-state, than as a precursor to it. It has nothing to do with the pre-nation-state medieval period, or with the Crusades.

Eighteenth-century buffs, feel free to chip in if I've misrepresented anything, as this is mostly coming from my readings about the historiographical development of feudalism, not any revolutionary France expertise, so I may well have misinterpreted things.
