A southern slave owner argues that slavery is too important to the South's

History

wlad13 [49]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Think about slavery. The average African-American will have very low morale if he is forced to work. Low morale means their work ethic will slip, and sub-par work ethic leads to sub-par product. You'll actually be saving money if you free your slaves. Rather than paying tens of thousands of dollars to buy them and then paying for all of their expenses beyond that, you'll just have to pay them monthly or weekly wages. Abolition is both cost effective and stimulating to the economy.

Explanation:

Large concentrations of individuals were more expensive to care for, especially medically. Most slave owners were primarily concerned about the so-called "wage bubble" that would burst and leave all slave owners destitute, when in reality slave owners who freed their slaves and still had some working for them as freemen flourished.

Compare and contrast the fall of the Roman Empire with the fall of the Byzantine Empire. Describe at least one major similarity
Lesechka [4]

The main difference between the Roman Empire and the Byzantine Empire concerned the official religions they practiced. Whereas the Roman Empire was officially pagan up for most of its existence, the Byzantine Empire was Christian. The Byzantine Empire was the significant remnant of the Roman Empire that survived in southeastern Europe for a thousand years after the official fall of Rome in 476 CE. As noted, a key difference with Rome was that the Byzantine Empire was always Christian rather than pagan. This hardwired into Byzantium a lack of cultural openness to the kind of religious diversity that had helped classical Rome to expand and thrive.
Another important difference was the relative weakness of Byzantium vis-à-vis the Roman Republic's power in its heyday. While powerful in some ways, Byzantium did not function as a hegemonic cultural, political, and military superpower in the same way as did the classical Roman Empire. This had the downside of leaving western Europe vulnerable to attacks, particularly from Viking marauders, that would not have occurred under the Roman Empire, but this also created an upside in which the western Europeans were forced to create their own vibrant and flexible cultural, political, and military institutions and infrastructures in order to survive.
Byzantium remained crucially important, however, because it controlled Constantinople, the gateway to the Mediterranean as well the gateway to overland passages to Asia. This was a source of access to vital trade routes with the East that this remnant of the Roman empire safeguarded for western Europe. Unfortunately, however, unlike Rome in its heyday, Byzantium ultimately lacked military might to keep this territory from Muslim conquest.

which two sentences explain why the Delhi sultanate did not convert the majority of indians to islam?
VARVARA [1.3K]
Well I can't see the possible sentences, but muslims were a minority in India at the time and the population was predominantly Hindu. Forcing the majority of the population to change their religion forcibly (and through that many of their core values, beliefs, traditions and practices) was a quick way to create political unrest which could lead to a revolution. They we're already a minority ruling a large and powerful nation, so they were already dealing with a lot of resistance from the population as it was. Maybe they wanted to practice tolerance for moral reasons, but more likely they just didn't want to push their luck when they were already struggling to remain popular.
