A common feature of the bhakti movements was that B. they challenged the authority of the elite priests.

The Bhakti movements began in the 15th century in India and was based on the notion that Hinduism needed to be revived to cater more for everyone including those of lower castes.

  • They practiced devotion to the various gods in Hinduism and,
  • tried their best to use local languages to ensure that their message reached as many people as possible.
  • They are said to have challenged the authority of the highest caste in Hindu society, the elite priests, who they viewed as alienating the rest of the people.

Bhakti movements therefore challenged elite priests in order to achieve their goals or more equality.

Which most accurately describes historical events of the Ottoman Empire?
egoroff_w [7]

In the 11th century AD, the Abbasid Caliphate had appointed the chieftains of a nomadic Turkish tribe called the Seljuks as deputies to oversee Muslim Persia. The Seljuks had a long and contentious history with the Byzantine Empire. They used their authority to engage in battles with outlying Byzantine provinces in Anatolia, known in the present day as Turkey. Splinter groups of Seljuks established their own small emirates throughout the Anatolian frontier, chipping away at the edges of the Byzantine Empire. Invasions by Mongol hordes made the region even more unstable.

Chronicle of John Skylitzes. Madrid National Library. Web.

In a clash between Byzantines and Arabs at the Battle of Lalakaon (863), Amer, the emir of Malatya, was defeated.

Osman Gazi, a leader of one of the emirates, unified the various Seljuk factions and established the Ottoman Empire in AD 1299. The Seljuks were kept busy with the defense of the region from the Mongol hordes. Even so, they still preserved culture and knowledge that the Ottoman Empire was known for. Its lasting legacy can be seen in the art, culture, language, and government of the area. Richly brocaded textiles and exotic fabrics such as silk, for example, were trademarks of the Ottoman Empire, along with the traditional spices which had made this region economically and politically important during the medieval era.

The Ottoman Empire occupied most of Anatolia. Ottoman forces crossed the Aegean Sea and began to conquer European territory in a wide arc from the Balkans to the Black Sea. As the lands surrounding the Byzantine capital fell to the invaders, Constantinople began to look like the bull’s-eye of a target. Sultan Osman located his capital in Bursa, not far from Constantinople. It was just a matter of time before the declining Byzantine Empire fell.

The Europeans recognized this threat and were outraged. For a thousand years, Constantinople had represented Christendom to the Western world. Now it was in danger from a people whose culture was unfathomable to Europeans. The Turkish language, both written and spoken, was difficult to learn, and the desert cultures were mysterious. The European kingdoms organized crusades to defend what they saw as Christian land. But the armor-clad knights of countless feudal kingdoms were unable to stop advancing Ottoman armies.

The Ottoman Empire reached its greatest extent in 1683.

Battling alongside the Turks were the Janissaries, an elite class of soldiers. The Janissaries were captured Christian children who had been converted to Islam and forced into military service. Disciplined and committed to the Muslim cause, the Janissaries were feared throughout Europe. The creation of this elite unit of soldiers made the word “Janissary” known and respected throughout Europe. In fact, this term is still used in academic and military circles today.

In AD 1453, after 150 years of bloodshed, the Ottoman Turks launched a successful offensive against Constantinople. Continuous cannon fire blasted the massive city walls into rubble. Finally, Constantinople fell. The conquering Ottoman Turks changed its name to Istanbul, erasing the last traces of the Byzantine Empire. But by any name, this strategically located city conferred great power on those who controlled it.

The lack of which of the following represents scarcity? orange juice because the trucks carrying it are on strike enough workers
Arisa [49]

Answer:

The lack of orange juice represents scarcity.

Explanation:

This is because scarcity is the lack of product, not the lack of demand. Since there is a limited supply of workers then it is less likely to be produced in large quantities, making it scarce because there is not enough of the product to meet the demand. Furthermore, the grapefruit juice cannot be considered scarce because although there is a low demand, the product's production is not threatened in any way, so there is enough of it to satisfy the demand.

Nikolay [14]
Political Machines were organizations that provided social services and jobs in exchange for votes.The political machines gathered votes in the late eighteenth century and the early nineteenth century by promising social services and jobs in exchange for their votes. They promised to help immigrants that benefited the immigrants and as well as the politics because they helped them in exchange for their votes. Tactics used by political machines to secure votes were public rallies, newspapers and even bars playing a critical role. The political machines were run by a boss who in turn had precinct captains, ward captains and district captains underneath him. They all made sure that the poor had what they needed. They also made sure the poor voted for them
