The Islam emerged in the sixth century AD, and with it, the first Islamic states started to occur. The Islamic states started to occur because this religion managed to unite lot of tribes and create one powerful entity. The military strength was big, so it was used for expansion, and on the territories that were conquered, the people were converted to Islam, very often forcefully. This has resulted in rapid change of the political and religious map of the world, with a very large area becoming dominated by Islam. The Islamic states, once properly established, flourished and were very advanced, having big achievements in numerous scientific fields. Unfortunately, the fundamentalist fraction managed to prevail over time and stopped the progress, so gradually the Islamic states started to fall behind the other parts of the world when it came to development, and that can be seen even nowadays.
Answer:
if you live in the northern hemishpere the earth is closer to the sun during winter but the earth is tilted so we are away from the sun making it winter while the southern hemisphere is closer. and when its our summer the earth is further away but the earth is tilted to make us closer than the southern hemisphere
Answer:
Extensional faulting observed in southwestern Mexico has been related to the incipient rifting of the Jalisco block from the Mexican mainland since the Pliocene. On the basis of new structural and geophysical data, we propose that (1) the continental boundaries of the Jalisco block are ancient structures reactivated since the Pliocene at a low (<1 mm/yr) rate of deformation, and (2) Pliocene-Quaternary extensional faulting at the edges of Jalisco block is a basement-controlled intraplate deformation related to plate boundary forces rather than to active continental rifting. The Jalisco block boundaries first developed in response to the uplift of the Puerto Vallarta batholith in pre-Neogene time and underwent a complex contractile deformation before the Pliocene. During Pliocene-Quaternary times north-northeast extension reactivated the northern boundary, forming the Tepic-Zacoalco rift, whereas east-southeast extension formed the northern Colima rift. South of the Colima volcano, active extension is found only west of the so-called southern Colima rift and partly reactivates old northeast-trending basement faults. The parallelism between the subducted Rivera-Cocos plate boundary zone and the eastern neotectonic boundary of the Jalisco block supports eastsoutheastward motion of the southern Mexican blocks induced by the differential motion and oblique subduction of the Cocos and Rivera plates. On the other hand, we envisage Pliocene-Quaternary extension along the northern boundary as an upper-plate response to the low convergence rate and the steep subduction angle of the Rivera plate.
