which of the following factors best explains why the portuguese did not engage in direct trading relations with west african states until the fifteenth century? Lack of the necessary navigational and maritime technology
Lack of European interest in African goods
Directives from the pope to limit trade between Christians and Africans
Fear of death from tropical diseases

Answers

Answer 1

Lack of the necessary navigational and maritime technology is the reason that why the Portuguese did not engage in direct trading relations with west african states until the fifteenth century.

Motivated by the desire for new markets and an ongoing opposition to the Muslims, Portuguese sailors had begun to explore the West African coast in the first half of the fifteenth century. The expeditions were sponsored by Prince Henry of Portugal, who founded a center for seamanship around 1420 and earned himself the title of the Navigator.

At the center, information about tides and currents was collected, more accurate charts and maps were drawn, techniques for determining longitude were improved, and new ship designs (such as the caravel) were developed. With these innovations, the Portuguese reached the westernmost point of the continent at Cape Verde in 1448, setting up a lucrative network of trading posts along the way.

What was the battle of LWO Okinawa for and what happened?
what were the casualties

Answers

Answer:

The battle of Iwo Okinawa was a battle of the Japanese Imperial army military force against the U.S's military force.

On the U.S's side, they did it to attempt acess to mainland Japan, and on Japan's side they did it because it was mid WW2 and they couldn't let the allies stop their conquest to obtain China, the Korean peninsula, and the Philippine islands.

The battle went like this;  

The U.S invaded the island (in February 19, 1945) to try to get access to airfields of the island that was very near the coast (750 miles) of Japan to help plan an easier future mainland invasion into Japanese soil.The battle lasted for 5 weeks, making it an excruciatingly bloody battle, having around 7,200 people killed.The Japanese started running low on supplies so they had to surrender, U.S was victorious, the island fell into U.S forces. The U.S also then later captured Mount Suribachi in the island and planted a flag at the summit.

Casualties: around 7,200

NUMBER OF PEOPLE IN BATTLE:  70,000 U.S soldiers and 18,000 Japanese soldiers

Answers

Answer: Slaves were considered property ---------------------------> Congress did not have the power to outlaw slavery in the territories

Explanation:

The Dred Scott decision which was one of the most criticized in Supreme Court history, ruled that African Americans were not American citizens but were to be classified as property.

As such, Congress had no power to outlaw slavery in the territories because the U.S. Constitution protected the rights of Americans to not be deprived of their property by the state unless there is due process.

This decision heavily influenced the intensity of rivalry between the North and the South on the topic of slavery and so could be said to have been a main cause of the Civil War.

How many constitutional courts has Congress set up?

Under the "Sushasan" (Good governance) section of its manifesto, the Congress has made a number of promises and proposals about India's judiciary. Two, in particular, stand out because they involve amending the Constitution and will impact the way citizens secure justice.

Promise 1: Congress will introduce a Bill to amend the Constitution to make the Supreme Court a Constitutional Court that will hear and decide cases involving the interpretation of the Constitution and other cases of legal significance or national importance.

Promise 2: The party will introduce a Bill to amend the Constitution to establish a Court of Appeal between the High Courts and the Supreme Court, to hear appeals from judgments and orders of High Courts. The Court of Appeal will sit in multiple Benches of three judges each in six locations.

Why was the Silk Road an important part of Chinese history?​

Answers

✎Answer:

The Silk Road was important because it helped to generate trade and commerce between a number of different kingdoms and empires. This helped for ideas, culture, inventions, and unique products to spread across much of the settled world.

Answer:

It promoted the exchange of Western and Chinese goods and ideas.

Explanation:

Missionaries and traders carried Buddhism from India into China. Daoism traveled west out of China into Central Asia and beyond. Much later, the religion of Islam was carried eastward from the Middle East.

Cultural influences spread along the trade route. Turkish folk tales inspired Chinese poetry. Central Asian harpists and dancers introduced their art to the Chinese people. Many Chinese inventions, such as the stirrup, traveled westward.
