Answer:

B. Northern Africa

Explanation:

Northern Africa is one of the several regions in the world that is dominated by Muslim populations. Almost entirely, the region is composed of people that are following the Islam, with the other religions being almost not represented. Historically, the region had multiple other religions, such as Christianity, Judaism, and local religions, but the over time, the Muslims have suppressed the other religions, forcing the people to convert tot heir religion. Lot of people that followed other religions migrated out of the region, and that is easily noticeable by the rapidly shrinking numbers of followers of other religions. The type of Islam that is dominant in Northern Africa is the Sunni Islam.

Answer:

The correct answer is B. Northern Africa

Explanation:

Northern Africa is a historical region that comprises the northern part of the African continent, separated from the rest of Africa by the Sahara Desert to the south. <u>Northern Africa has one of the highest percentage of Muslims in its population</u>. It is estimated that from a population of approximately 200 million North Africans, 97% are Muslims, (188 million). In contrast, only 7% of Western Europeans are Muslims, while they're a very small minority in Australia (2.6%) and South America (1%).

The reasons for such a high concentration of Muslims in Northern Africa are mainly historical, geographical and cultural. The Arabian Peninsula was the birthplace of Islam, and from there, it expanded all along the Arab cultural sphere, especially with the Umayyad conquest of Northern Africa in the late 8th century.

How does the united nations define genocide
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

The word “genocide” was first coined by Polish lawyer Raphäel Lemkin in 1944 in his book Axis Rule in Occupied Europe. It consists of the Greek prefix genos, meaning race or tribe, and the Latin suffix cide, meaning killing. Lemkin developed the term partly in response to the Nazi policies of systematic murder of Jewish people during the Holocaust, but also in response to previous instances in history of targeted actions aimed at the destruction of particular groups of people. Later on, Raphäel Lemkin led the campaign to have genocide recognised and codified as an international crime.

Do you think the U.S. could have avoided the Civil War, or do you think it was inevitable / unavoidable? Please explain your ans
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

I believe it was not possible to avoid the civil war. If it was avoidable, the north and south would have split into two different countries. Since the two are right next to each other, there would have been constant clashes and disagreements. The southern white would have not cooperate with the north to negotiate giving any slaves rights. As I said, war could have been pushed aside, back ultimately come back as the heat between the north and south would be much greater, creating a much more bloodier of a war than it was originally.

Why was the Wilmot proviso divisive to Congress?
Stella [2.4K]
The Wilmot Proviso was a more-or-less religious declaration that slavery wouldnot be permitted in any of the new territories that were likely to be admittedto the USA. This would increase Northern dominance of Congress, and enable moreraising of taxes on imports - the big controversy in the South, which had nomanufacturing industry, and depended largely on imported goods.Please mark brainliest, thanks! :)
