Answer: Muslims? Praying? Rugs? Imam?
Answer:
The Kingdom of Kandy was a monarchy on the island of Sri Lanka, located in the central and eastern portion of the island. It was founded in the late 15th century and endured until the early 19th century.
Initially a client kingdom of the Kingdom of Kotte, Kandy gradually established itself as an independent force during the tumultuous 16th and 17th centuries, allying at various times with the Jaffna Kingdom, the Madurai Nayak dynasty of South India, Sitawaka Kingdom, and the Dutch colonizers to ensure its survival.
From the 1590s, it was the sole independent native polity on the island of Sri Lanka and through a combination of hit-and-run tactics and diplomacy kept European colonial forces at bay, before finally succumbing to British colonial rule in 1818.
The kingdom was absorbed into the British Empire as a protectorate following the Kandyan Convention of 1815, and definitively lost its autonomy following the Uva Rebellion of 1817.
The rule of the Zagwe Dynasty is the correct answer.
The event that helped give Christianity a permanent place in Ethiopia was the rise of the Zagwe Dynasty. Even though, during colonialism, Europeans were the ones who spread Christianity in Africa, Ethiopia wasn't included in that. The adoption of Christianity in Ethiopia happened via merchants that resulted in the conversion of Frumentius and consequently led him to become the first bishop in Aksum. The Zagwe dynasty kept the cultural traditions of Aksumite state and let Christianity remain as the official religion in that country.
All of the above is the correct answer! :)
