Answer:

A year after Napoleon's troops invaded Egypt in 1718, the Rosetta stone was found near Rashid. The Rosetta stone was a stone that had three versions of a decree issued incripted in it. This was very important to Egypt, they often made it the subject of sculpture. The scholars labeled the slab the “Rosetta Stone” in honor of where it was found. The French used what was well  known as the rubbing paper teqnique, which allowed them to make copies of the Rosetta Stone’s inscription. The stones inscription was unknown to most because of the language it was in. Thomas Young, an english physician, was determined to solve the discovery language. He was unsuccessful. After Thomas, Champollion who is known as "the father of Egyptiology" was able to desipher the ancient Egyptian language.

Why did the formation of League of Nation mandates in the former Ottoman Empire lead to conflict?
Sidana [21]

Answer:

c

Explanation:

Following the defeat of Germany and Ottoman Turkey in World War I, their Asian and African possessions, which were judged not yet ready to govern themselves, were distributed among the victorious Allied powers under the authority of Article 22 of the Covenant of the League of Nations (itself an Allied creation). The mandate system was a compromise between the Allies’ wish to retain the former German and Turkish colonies and their pre-Armistice declaration (November 5, 1918) that annexation of territory was not their aim in the war. The mandates were divided into three groups on the basis of their location and their level of political and economic development and were then assigned to individual Allied victors (mandatory powers, or mandatories).

Class A mandates consisted of the former Turkish provinces of Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, and Palestine. These territories were considered sufficiently advanced that their provisional independence was recognized, though they were still subject to Allied administrative control until they were fully able to stand alone. Iraq and Palestine (including modern Jordan and Israel) were assigned to Great Britain, while Turkish-ruled Syria and Lebanon went to France. All Class A mandates reached full independence by 1949.
