algol [13]

The Social Gospel Movement originated during the second half of the 19th century. It grew from the ideas of religious protestant leaders, who wanted to associate good deeds to the possibility of achieving salvation.

The Industrial Age was an ongoing period of time during the appearance of the Gospel Movement in which there were numerous technological developments in manufacturing techniques that increased the output of many industries. Regarding personnel who worked in the factories, there were many excesses committed by business owners towards workers during this age, as the concept of labor rights was still inexistent.

klasskru [66]

Leonidas' decision to disobey the Council and march forward to the Hot Gates and vanquish the Persian army was founded in his determination not to surrender Sparta to Xerxes.

Despite his anger he doesn't want to disobey the Ephors, his wife persuades him to rethink his strategy and take 300 soldiers as his personal guard to battle along with the Greeks at the Hot Gates and reduce the Persian's army military capacity.

Here are some milestones in the development of technology used by geographers. Put them in the order in which they appeared in h

Deffense [45]

The right order is Cartography -> Navigational Compass -> Photography -> Internet.

Cartography - The first examples of maps used in Cartography dates back to the human pre-history. The oldest recorded route was found in Anatolia and was dated 6100-6300 BC, showing buildings and a volcano.

Navigational Compass - The first known compass was made with Lodestone, a black magnetized iron ore, during the 12th century. Chinese, European and Arab mariners used a different mechanism to make the magnetic phenomenon possible, but eventually, the lodestone was used to magnetize a needle that was floated on a small piece of wood in a small container of water.

Photography - The modern photography was established during the 19th century and was only used in a consistent manner by geographers by the end of that century.

Internet - The most recent milestone was the internet that came after the development of electronic computers in the 1950s.
