Women were responsible for child rearing, domestic chores and enjoyed high honor as the source of life while men monopolized public authority. Aristocratic women could influence public affair and women merchant commonly traded at markets. Sometimes women organized all female military unit. All this was possible for women because Islam did little to curtail women’s opportunities in sub-Suharan Africa. People assumed responsibilities and tasks appropriate to their age grades.Age formed tight circles of friends and,later allies. Hope that helped!❤️

Answer: The level of government in which I think should be in charge of security is going to have to be federal. Because the federal government deals with the nation’s affairs and laws. Security from foreign enemies is a national concern meaning that the federal government should take care of the nation’s defense. Which they do of course. The Department of Defense is an executive branch department of the federal government of the United States charged with coordinating and supervising all agencies and functions of the government concerned directly with national security and the United States Armed Forces.
