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.


   So it is D.    Please mark as brainliest?

In his letter to John Dickinson Thomas Jefferson Made which of these points about the Louisiana Purchase ?
german

Some of the main points Thomas Jefferson explain to John Dickinson about the Louisiana purchase were:

  • The sole dominion of the Mississippi, excluding those bickerings with foreign powers, securing the course of a peaceable nation.
  • The pretension to extend the western territory of Louisiana to the Rio Norte, or Bravo; and still stronger the eastern boundary to the Rio Perdido between the rivers Mobile & Pensacola.
  • Ratification and payment, for a thing beyond the constitution, and rely on the nation to sanction an act done for its great good, without its previous authority.
  • Annex New Orleans to the Mississippi territory and shut up all the rest from settlement for a long time to come, endeavoring to exchange some of the country there unoccupied by Indians for the lands held by the Indians on this side the Mississippi.
  • The impost which will be paid by the inhabitants ceded will pay half the interest of the price given: so that only half will be added to the debt.

Which 20th century occurrence had the GREATEST impact on expanding the ideals of democracy throughout the United States? A) Worl
vfiekz [6]
Since the U.S. was fighting against communist nations in WW ll, I'd say answer A.
That was when the U.S. first realized how dangerous communism is, since the whole nation in a sense follows the wants of one man.

Fighting against Hitler, Mussolini, and the other guy (I can't remember who it was) really opened America's eyes to the horrors of communism, which is why they decided to strengthen the Democratic side of America.

I believe answer A. is correct.
