The Abrahamic religions, also referred to collectively as Abrahamism, are a group of Semitic-originated religious communities of faith that claim descent from the practices of the ancient Israelites and the worship of the God of Abraham. The term derives from a figure from the Bible known as Abraham.[1]
Abrahamic religion spread globally through Christianity being adopted by the Roman Empire in the 4th century and Islam by the Islamic Empires from the 7th century. Today the Abrahamic religions are one of the major divisions in comparative religion (along with Indian, Iranian, and East Asian religions).[2] The major Abrahamic religions in chronological order of founding are Judaism in the 7th century BCE,[3] Christianity in the 1st century CE, and Islam in the 7th century CE.
Christianity, Islam, and Judaism are the Abrahamic religions with the greatest numbers of adherents.[4][5][6] Abrahamic religions with fewer adherents include the faiths descended from Yazdânism (the Yezidi, Yarsani and Alevi faiths), Samaritanism,[7] the Druze faith (often classified as a branch of Isma'ili Shia Islam),[8] Bábism,[9][self-published source] the Bahá'í Faith and Rastafari.[10][11]
As of 2005, estimates classified 54% (3.6 billion people) of the world's population as adherents of an Abrahamic religion, about 32% as adherents of other religions, and 16% as adherents of no organized religion. Christianity claims 33% of the world's population, Islam has 21%, Judaism has 0.2%[12][13] and the Bahá'í Faith represents around 0.1%.[14][15]

Following increased pressure from Southern politicians, Congress passed a revised Fugitive Slave Act in 1850. Part of Henry Clay's famed Compromise of 1850—a group of bills that helped quiet early calls for Southern secession—this new law forcibly compelled citizens to assist in the capture of runaway slaves.
<span>Mesopotamia
is made up of different regions, each with its own geography. The
geography of each area and the natural resources found there affected
the ways that people lived.
Northern Mesopotamia is made up of hills and plains. The land is quite
fertile due to seasonal rains, and the rivers and streams flowing from
the mountains. Early settlers farmed the land and used timber, metals
and stone from the mountains nearby.
Southern Mesopotamia is made up of marshy areas and wide, flat, barren
plains. Cities developed along the rivers which flow through the region.
Early settlers had to irrigate the land along the banks of the rivers
in order for their crops to grow. Since they did not have many natural
resources, contact with neighbouring lands was important.
Life in Mesopotamia was concentrated between the rivers Tigris and
Euphrates. They were used for transport, but were also the means by
which the people of Mesopotamia could live, as they provided water to
drink and to irrigate the surrounding land. Once the land was irrigated,
it could produce crops and other foods for the people to eat. With
such good yields - the people had extra food to sell - commerce began to
develop. With markets - the need for an organized government grew. A
government needed to codify local customs and so Laws came into being.
Also - as laws and customer became more complex - these rules needed to
be formally enshrined - writing was invented .
As cities developed In Mesopotamia, each town and city was believed to
be protected by its own, unique deity or god. The temple called a
Ziggurat, was the center of worship as well as the center of every city.
