how have the steppes of central asia influenced history?

Answers

Answer:

The history of Central Asia concerns the history of the various peoples that have inhabited Central Asia. The lifestyle of such people has been determined primarily by the area's climate and geography. The aridity of the region makes agriculture difficult and distance from the sea cut it off from much trade. Thus, few major cities developed in the region. Nomadic horse peoples of the steppe dominated the area for millennia.

Relations between the steppe nomads and the settled people in and around Central Asia were marked by conflict. The nomadic lifestyle was well suited to warfare, and the steppe horse riders became some of the most militarily potent people in the world, due to the devastating techniques and ability of their horse archers.[1] Periodically, tribal leaders or changing conditions would cause several tribes to organize themselves into a single military force, which would then often launch campaigns of conquest, especially into more 'civilized' areas. A few of these types of tribal coalitions included the Huns' invasion of Europe, various Turkic migrations into Transoxiana, the Wu Hu attacks on China and most notably the Mongol conquest of much of Eurasia.

The dominance of the nomads ended in the 16th century as firearms allowed settled people to gain control of the region. The Russian Empire, the Qing dynasty of China, and other powers expanded into the area and seized the bulk of Central Asia by the end of the 19th century. After the Russian Revolution of 1917, the Soviet Union incorporated most of Central Asia; only Mongolia and Afghanistan remained nominally independent, although Mongolia existed as a Soviet satellite state and Soviet troops invaded Afghanistan in the late 20th century. The Soviet areas of Central Asia saw much industrialization and construction of infrastructure, but also the suppression of local cultures and a lasting legacy of ethnic tensions and environmental problems.

With the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991, five Central Asian countries gained independence — Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Kyrgyzstan, and Tajikistan. In all of the new states, former Communist Party officials retained power as local strongmen.

B.They all decreased voter discrimination based on gender. C.They all required that states must protect rights of all citizens regardless of race. D.They all required that states must protect rights of all citizens regardless of gender.

Answers

Answer:

A.They all decreased voter discrimination based on race

Explanation:

The 15th Amendment which was ratified in 1870 helped to end the discrimination of African Americans from voting as stating that it was illegal to prevent any person from voting based on his race.

The 24th Amendment which was ratified in 1964 made poll taxes- another means of preventing blacks from voting- illegal.

Therefore, the 15th Amendment, 24th Amendment, and Voting Rights Act of 1965 all similar because they all decreased voter discrimination based on race.

Presidents have two large responsibilities that rest almost entirely with them. Selecting Supreme Court justices and handling foreign affairs. I think a good place to start it so determine how each candidate would act in these two spheres.

First of all, you are correct. Only 4 presidents have gotten 60% or more of the vote: Johnson over Goldwater, Roosevelt over Landon, Nixon over McGovern and Harding over Cox. A few more came close. (George Washington ran unopposed, so, he got all the votes, but that doesn’t seem to count for this). Most races have been close; indeed, 18 presidents got elected with less than 50% of the vote. Considering that statistics on popular vote don’t exist for the first 9 elections, that’s remarkable (Source: List of United States presidential elections by popular vote margin)

Explanation:

What are 3 reasons why Jesus was so influential?

Answers

Answer:

Christians see Jesus as a teacher. He has shown them a way of life and given them a set of values. His teachings can be summarised, briefly as the love of God and love of one's neighbour. ... Jesus is an inspiration to Christian living in many ways, and some people who are not Christian find him inspiring as well.

1: He had a profound impact on the people who encountered him while he was alive and ministering in Jerusalem and elsewhere. That is clear.

2: St. Paul, he basically spread nascent Christianity across the Levant and into Greece. From where it became an important cult within the Roman Empire, growing year by year. He wrote voluminously on his version of Christianity to communities across the Roman world, and single handedly spread Christianity from a small Jewish sect into a fledgling religion distinct from Judaism and part of the Roman world, which we inherited.

3: Constantine the Great. He made Christianity the State Religion of the Roman Empire, and founded Constantinople as it’s Capital; this event cemented Christianity as a world religion and allowed it to destroy paganism and its competitor religions in the Mediterranean basin. That legacy led directly to the Orthodox Church, and the Roman Catholic Church which are still in existence today (I’m one of the Catholics) and Catholicism has well over a billion followers across the globe, while Orthodox Christianity has several hundred million adherents. Most other forms of Christianity we know today such as Protestantism, derive from these Roman predecessors. So in a way, the Roman Empire still influences the world down to the present day.

lol sorry its so long

Jesus had a universal concern for those who suffered that transcended the rules of the ancient world. His compassion for the poor and the sick led to institutions for lepers, the beginning of modern-day hospitals.
