How did Islam affect northern and eastern Africa? Use at least two examples from your reading.
whoever gets asnwer clearly and correct gets:thanks,rating 5.and brainliest.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

The religion of Islam arose in the Arabian city of Mecca around A.D. 610 through the work of its prophet Muhammad. After Muhammad died in 632, his teachings were carried into Africa by Arab traders, settlers, and soldiers. By conversion and conquest, Islam spread across North Africa, into the eastern Horn of Africa, and even over the SAHARA DESERT into West Africa. The arrival of Islam had a major impact on the political and social development of those regions, and it remains a significant force in Africa today.

THE SPREAD OF ISLAM

Islam first took hold on the continent in the 600s and 700s. It was brought to EGYPT and North Africa by conquering armies and to the East African coast by traders and merchants. West Africa did not encounter Islam until about 800, and the religion spread more slowly there than in the eastern part of the continent.

Islam in Africa

Egypt, Sudan, and Ethiopia

In 639 an Arab army of some 4,000 men invaded Egypt, which was then under the control of the Byzantine Empire. Despite its small size, this Muslim force succeeded in driving the Byzantines out of Egypt and installing their own ruler, known as emir. Soon afterwards the Arabs began to push south along the NILE RIVER, attacking the Christian kingdoms of NUBIA in what is now northern SUDAN. However, Nubian resistance halted the Arab advance, and in 651 the emir of Egypt signed a peace treaty with the Nubians.

Answer: Islam was popular in the cities of northern and eastern Africa but had less impact in the countryside. Mansa Musa of Mali made his country known to other parts of the world when he set out on a journey to Mecca in 1324. In East Africa, Swahili culture combined traditional African influences with Islamic influences. Islam impacted African concepts of right and wrong, introduced Arabic to many Africans, advanced learning, and influenced art and architecture.

How did television change the nature of political communication

Answers

The power of conviction that television exerts on voters during an election campaign can become decisive in the triumph or defeat of a particular party or candidate, since for a very large number of citizens it is the only source of information. This mass media supports electoral campaigns, through informative programs and free advertising spaces for political parties.

Answer: The way in which the invention of television changed the nature of political communication was that it gave the public the ability to to see what officials looked like and see the effects of their actions. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the second option or option "B".

Explanation: How did the invention of television change the nature of political communication? A) It made other forms of media like newspapers and the radio obsolete in terms of spreading a message. B) It gave the public audience the ability to see what officials looked like and see the effects of their actions. C) It caused people to spend more time consuming entertainment programming rather than political events. D) It led to the creation of regulatory agencies that prevent news stations from taping public officials' speeches.

Answers

The Hundred Years’ War affect western European society by creating feelings of nationalism in England and France.

What is nationalism?

Nationalist ideas and movements advocate for peaceful coexistence between the state and the nation. It states that a nation is the only legal foundation for a polity and that a nation should hold all political authority. Each nation should be permitted to govern itself without outside interference (self-determination). Thus, nationalism seeks to preserve and advance a nation's historical culture. The growth of nationalism at the end of the 18th century was largely influenced by the French Revolution and the popularization of the idea of popular sovereignty. Since this thesis was disproved by academics, it is now widely accepted that nations are socially and historically formed. An alternative explanation for nationalism offered by Anthony D. Smith's work is known as ethnosymbolism, which contends that symbols, myths, and traditions are to blame.

Earl Warren called for the massive resistance all the others weren’t apart of it !

Earl Warren called for “massive resistance” by southern politicians to the Brown decision. Hence, option A is correct.

What did Chief Justice Earl Warren say?

Warren, arguing for the court, declared that "separate educational facilities are intrinsically unequal," rejecting the "separate but equal" principle that had been upheld since Plessy v. Ferguson in 1896.

The court then urged the desegregation of public schools with "all deliberate speed." In the unanimous decision Brown v. Board of Education (1954), which overturned Plessy v. Ferguson (1896), he urged his fellow judges to follow his lead.

This decision marked the end of segregation in American culture and sparked the civil rights movement and other modern campaigns for reform.

Thus, option A is correct.

can someone please give me a paragraph and a half of research on the Navajo Indian code talkers of ww2 i will give brainliest answer as well.

Answers

Answer:

A code talker is the name given to American Indians who used their tribal language to send secret communications on the battlefield. Most people have heard of the famous Navajo (or Diné) code talkers who used their traditional language to transmit secret Allied messages in the Pacific theater of combat during World War II. But did you know that there were at least 14 other Native nations, including the Cherokee and Comanche, that served as code talkers in both the Pacific and Europe during the war? The idea of using American Indians who were fluent in both their traditional tribal language and in English to send secret messages in battle was first put to the test in World War I with the Choctaw Telephone Squad and other Native communications experts and messengers. However, it wasn’t until World War II that the US military developed a specific policy to recruit and train American Indian speakers to become code talkers. The irony of being asked to use their Native languages to fight on behalf of America was not lost on code talkers, many of whom had been forced to attend government or religious-run boarding schools that tried to assimilate Native peoples and would punish students for speaking in their traditional language.

The US Army was the first branch of the military that began recruiting code talkers from places like Oklahoma in 1940. Other branches, such as the US Marines and Navy, followed a few years later, and the first class of 29 Navajo code talker US Marine recruits completed its training in 1942. Apart from basic training, these men had to develop and memorize a unique military code using their mostly unwritten language, and were placed in a guarded room until this task was completed.

The first type of code they created, Type 1 code, consisted of 26 Navajo terms that stood for individual English letters that could be used to spell out a word. For instance, the Navajo word for “ant,” wo-la-chee, was used to represent the letter “a” in English.

Type 2 code contained words that could be directly translated from English into Navajo, and the code talkers also developed a dictionary of 211 terms (later expanded to 411) for military words and names that didn’t originally exist in the Navajo language. For example, since there was no existing Navajo word for “submarine,” the code talkers agreed to use the term besh-lo, which translates to “iron fish.”
