Weathering is different from erosion. Erosion is the movement of rock pieces and sediment from one area to another. Weathering is the breaking down of rocks and erosion is a wearing away of rocks. There are two main types of weathering: physical (or mechanical) weathering and chemical weathering.

The definition of erosion is the effect of eroding or being eroded, by natural elements such as wind, water, and ice.

Physical weathering is a scientific term used that refers to the process of rocks breaking down without their chemical composition being changed. The movements of earth cause the rock to break out of formation. You see, the earth moves at hundreds of millions of miles at this second, but its going so fast it doesn't seem like its moving. I hope this helps.

Have a wonderful rest of the day.

During the French and Indian War, the british were allies of the side of the British indians.

The French and Indian War (1754–1763) was a confrontation between the British colonies and the colony of New France in North America. During the conflict, each side was supported by military forces from its parent country and by American Indian-native allies. The French were outnumbered (60,000 settlers against 2 million inhabitants in the British colonies), and had to rely more on the Indians.

It was a singular conflict. Even tough the European powers participated somehow, it is not regarded in America as a conflict associated to them at all.

Law of brotherhood

The death penalty was so common, that in the First Court, the Fountain of Execution was erected, where the executioner and his assistant washed their bloody hands after cutting their heads at the victims.

Explanation:

Since the mid-15th century, the "law of brotherhood" written by Muhammed II was in force in the Ottoman Empire. It was a "rulebook" outlining the terms of power. A brother who would gain the throne killed all other brothers and sisters, which was considered not only permissible but desirable, because it partly prevented the risk of rebellion and civil war.
Although not always enforced, Muhammed's law led to the deaths of more than 80 Ottomans of "blue blood" over a 150-year period.
The fountain was the most frightening symbol of the power the sultan had over his subjects.
