name 5 facts about west africa surplus in the 15th century

Answers

Answer:

The history of West Africa has been commonly divided into its prehistory, the Iron Age in Africa, the major polities flourishing, the colonial period, and finally the post-independence era, in which the current nations were formed. West Africa is west of an imagined north-south axis lying close to 10° east longitude, bordered by the Atlantic Ocean and Sahara Desert.

Colonial boundaries are reflected in the modern boundaries between contemporary West African states, cutting across ethnic and cultural lines, often dividing single ethnic groups between two or more states. During the Holocene, sedentary farming began to develop in West Africa. The Iron industry, in both smelting and forging for tools and weapons, appeared in Sub-Saharan Africa by 1200 BCE, and by 400 BCE, contact had been made with the Mediterranean civilizations, and a regular trade included exporting gold, cotton, metal, and leather in exchange for copper, horses, salt, textiles, and beads. The Nok culture (1500 BCE - 200/300 BCE) would develop.[1] and vanished under unknown circumstances around 500 AD, thus having lasted approximately 2,000 years.[2] The Serer people would construct the Senegambian stone circles (3rd century BCE - 16th century CE). The Sahelian kingdoms were a series of kingdoms or empires that were built on the Sahel, the area of grasslands south of the Sahara. They controlled the trade routes across the desert, and were also quite decentralised, with member cities having a great deal of autonomy. The Ghana Empire may have been established as early as the 7th century CE. It was succeeded by the Sosso in 1230, the Mali Empire in the 13th century CE, and later by the Songhai and Sokoto Caliphate. There were also a number of forest empires and states in this time period.

Following the collapse of the Songhai Empire, a number of smaller states arose across West Africa, including the Bambara Empire of Ségou, the lesser Bambara kingdom of Kaarta, the Fula/Malinké kingdom of Khasso (in present-day Mali's Kayes Region), and the Kénédougou Empire of Sikasso. European traders first became a force in the region in the 15th century. The transatlantic African slave trade resumed, with the Portuguese taking hundreds of captives back to their country for use as slaves; however, it would not begin on a grand scale until Christopher Columbus's voyage to the Americas and the subsequent demand for cheap colonial labour. As the demand for slaves increased, some African rulers sought to supply the demand by constant war against their neighbours, resulting in fresh captives. European, American and Haitian governments passed legislation prohibiting the Atlantic slave trade in the 19th century, though the last country to abolish the institution was Brazil in 1888.

In 1725, the cattle-herding Fulanis of Fouta Djallon launched the first major reformist jihad of the region, overthrowing the local animist, Mande-speaking elites and attempting to somewhat democratize their society. At the same time, the Europeans started to travel into the interior of Africa to trade and explore. Mungo Park (1771–1806) made the first serious expedition into the region's interior, tracing the Niger River as far as Timbuktu. French armies followed not long after. In the Scramble for Africa in the 1880s the Europeans started to colonise the inland of West Africa, they had previously mostly controlled trading ports along the coasts and rivers. Following World War II, campaigns for independence sprung up across West Africa, most notably in Ghana under the Pan-Africanist Kwame Nkrumah (1909–1972). After a decade of protests, riots and clashes, French West Africa voted for autonomy in a 1958 referendum, dividing into the states of today; most of the British colonies gained autonomy the following decade. Since independence, West Africa has suffered from the same problems as much of the African continent, particularly dictatorships, political corruption and military coups; it has also seen bloody civil wars. The development of oil and mineral wealth has seen the steady modernization of some countries since the early 2000s, though inequality persists hope this helps

Explanation:

Answer: Telegraph

Explanation:

On 25 July 1837, William Fothergill Cooke, an English inventor, and Charles Wheatstone, an English scientist, made the first electric telegraph communication between the station rooms at Camden Town – where Cooke was stationed, together with Robert Stephenson, the engineer – and London Euston, where Wheatstone was situated.

The directors of the London and Birmingham Railway were their audience, and their goal was to improve safety on the railways. In fact, the impact of the demonstration was far more wide-reaching than that – Cooke and Wheatstone went on to become the founding fathers of The Electric Telegraph Company, of which BT today is a direct descendant. They also pioneered the close relationship between rail and telegraph networks.

But in the 19th century, things moved rather more sedately. The world’s first commercial telegraph line, which connected Paddington and West Drayton, didn’t launch for another two years, in 1839. But from these slow beginnings grew a national and then a global network, a “Victorian internet” that pioneered not only great advances in technology but profound changes in society too, as instant long-distance communication became a reality and far-flung parts of the world came within whispering distance.

Vladimir Putin recently congratulated the US President-elect Donald Trump by telegram

However, as well as bringing the world closer, the telegraph soon became known for a secondary (and rather more exciting) use – catching criminals. On New Year’s Day 1845, one John Tawell decided to start the year on a decisive note by poisoning his mistress. Her dying screams panicked him and he ran off, in his long Quaker coat, boarding the train from Slough to London. Alas, the stationmaster at Slough, having heard about the murder, spotted Tawell in his distinctive threads, and because the newfangled telegraph travelled faster than steam rail, the police were waiting for him at the other end – which, for Mr Tawell, ended at the gallows.

Just two decades after that first commercial telegraph signal, in 1858 the first transatlantic telegraph message was sent – by Queen Victoria to US President James Buchanan. The technology was such that her 99-word message took 16 hours to transmit through 2,500 miles of transatlantic cable: torturously slow by today’s standards, but technologically a huge step forward and a source of wonder at the time – and a tool of power, too. In its imperial pomp, Britain’s far-flung empire was brought that much closer by laying submarine telegraph lines to India in 1870 and Australia in 1872. Its impact reverberated through the Victorian mass media, too. When Reuters set up its telegram service in 1851 to supply foreign news to papers, it revolutionised the newspaper industry, heralding the era of the “scoop”. Its usage spread far and wide, culminating in peak telegram traffic during 1902-3, when 92 million telegrams were sent.

How did ancient greek architects create columns for their temples that appeared to be straight up and down

Answers

Answer:

Might not help because im in elementary

Explanation:

Whilst some stone columns were carved in one piece, as buildings became bigger, columns began to be constructed from separate drums. These were individually carved and fitted together using a wooden dowel or metal peg in the centre of the drum.

Columns were carved of local stone, usually limestone or tufa; in much earlier temples, columns would have been made of wood. Marble was used in many temples, such as the Parthenon in Athens, which is decorated with Pentelic marble and marble from the Cycladic island of Paros.

Ancient Greek architects create columns for their temples that appeared to be straight up and down by “entasis,” intended to counteract another optical effect in which columns with straight sides appear to the eye to be slenderer in their middles and to have a waist.

What is architects?

An architect is someone who plans, designs, and supervises building construction. Practicing architecture entails providing services related to the design of structures and the area inside the site around the buildings.

Meanwhile, the columns bulge in the centre rather than being straight along their vertical axes. This phenomenon, known as "entasis," was designed to counterbalance another optical impact in which columns with straight sides look slenderer in the centre and to have a waist to the eye.

Furthermore, the entire superstructure of the temple's outer facades (above the level of the columns) bends downward at the corners to reflect the stylobate and continue upward the temple's overall domed curvature.

List out 2 reasons why prohibition is a good idea

Answers

Answer:

1. A lot of housewives during the time were actually for the prohibition act. They had dealt with husbands that had come back drunk or otherwise and would abuse them some of the times. With alcohol harder to obtain, that was a good thing for them.

2. If you are a organized crime leader, the prohibiton act was amazing for you. The distribution of liquor and alcohol during the prohibition act was amazing for organized crime bosses and gangs. A great example were the “hidden bars” that would be popping up around New York and larger cities.

I hope those arguments for it can help!

Explanation:

Personally I believe the prohibition act was a bad idea, but I listed some arguments for it above...

Answer: The legal prevention of alcohol may prove beneficial, alcohol is unhealthy and can cause serious problems. Intoxication leads to poor decisions that can take lives. Also, drinking problems lead to death simply by alcohol poisoning. 25%  of all traffic related deaths are linked to intoxication. 29 people per day die due to this. Underage drinking can be prevented as well, protecting young minds from damage by alcohol.

I listed a few more than 2.. but  I hope this helps :)
