How did the Crusades affect the feudal system?

Homework sucks

Answers

Answer 1
In a way, the crusades both the strengthened and sounded the death knell for the feudal system in Europe.

They solved one problem of too many knights in Europe wandering around killing people and disrupting life in general. The Crusades siphoned off this force and put them to work killing non-Christians. And pretty much every generation or so, there was another Crusade, another call for excess Christian thugs to join the hooligans in the east.

But the Crusades did two things which ultimately undid the feudal system. First, they provided a trade route and a taste of the exotic things of the East. Until you tasted pepper, you had no idea your food was so bland. The Crusades opened the door for the import/export of commodities, that is, beyond what could be made locally. That is, once you start exporting your labor, including your excess thug labor, well, now you get things moving back and forth that were made elsewhere and the rich develop a taste for the finer things.

Second, once people start going to the Holy Land you've got to start funding the process. Travel expenses and costs on Crusade and treasures looted from Saracens and even Constantinople are all money transactions. And this is way before the first ATM. Travelers checks don't work so well in the highlands of Syria, even American Express. Where there's a need, somebody will resolve it. So the great orders of knights, the Templars and the Hospitalers, in spite of their original purpose, they become bankers. They will take a mortgage on your home and give you a line of credit which can be exchanged for money in the Holy Land. Pretty soon, these orders are moving a lot of money and become the first international bankers. Once that function gets started certain people know they are richer or poorer than other people and this starts squabbles everywhere and kings can borrow money and eventually international banking is here to stay. Oh, the names on the doors have changed, but not the function. This really kills feudalism; no longer are people strictly tied to one spot, they can now work elsewhere and make money, elsewhere.

Why was Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Antonin Scalia's friendship sometimes called "odd"? Do you think we can learn anything from this unique relationship? Explain.

Answers

Late High Court Equity Ruth Bader Ginsburg's broadly dear companionship with individual late Equity Antonin Scalia appears, from the start, an impossible matching. The appointed authorities, one liberal and one traditionalist, were never on a similar side for a choice and neither avoided voicing their suppositions — yet their families were known to spend each New Years occasion together.
We can learn to compromise and have peace instead of starting fights and assumptions without speaking clear enough to someone with different opinions than the other.
It was odd because they were on completely different sides of politics.( The late Ginsburg being very liberal and Scalia being very conservative) This helps us understand that no matter what we believe in we can all come together and be friends.

5. How does the desire for power and wealth connect to or conflict with the desire for morality?

Answers

Answer:

How could exploration of a new land bring power to a person? To a nation?

Explanation:

The motivation for exploring new land was the lack of resources in one's home nation that sent them around the world seeking untapped resouces. The discovery of new land with provided explorers with the power to obtain these resources such as gold or animal hides, and take them back to their home nation, thus making the rich and in turn, powerful.

Colonial nations obtained power through the exploration of land by exploiting the people they colonized and the materials that their land had to offer. This power was given to them through mercantilism. Britain is a great example of that. They facilitated the slave trade, collected the cotton, tobacco, sugar, etc, and distrubted those products worldwide. As no other nation could produce what Britain was providing, the other nations became reliant on Britain for these products, ergo making them very powerful.

What is a Climate?

Climate is determined by a region’s climate system. A climate system has five major components: the atmosphere, the hydrosphere, the cryosphere, the land surface, and the biosphere.

Climate is the long-term pattern of weather in a particular area. Weather can change from hour-to-hour, day-to-day, month-to-month or even year-to-year.

A region’s weather patterns, usually tracked for at least 30 years, are considered its climate.

The region labeled with the number 1 on the map above is the humid subtropical climate region. Therefore, option (A) is correct.

Question: How has Islam interpreted monotheism to be its overwhelming principal for the religion. Write a constructed response to answer this question using the RACE strategy.

Answers

You're probably aware that Islam is a religion practiced by Muslims. Despite the controversial headlines surrounding the religion, Islam has a rich history and several noteworthy traditions and beliefs. It's believed to have originated in the 7th Century in the territory known today as the Middle East. Islam, which means 'surrender,' is based upon the teachings of the Prophet Muhammad. Muhammad was born in the city of Mecca, today considered a holy site, and began preaching about the existence of a single god. In the grand scheme of things, Muhammad is thought to have reinforced monotheism in the Arab world.

In Islam, Muhammad is believed to have received revelations from Allah, which he wrote down. These writings formed the verses found today in the Qur'an, which is the most holy text in Islam. The Qur'an is considered sacred and contains the literal word of God, as relayed to Muhammad.

Today, many practicing Muslims pray up to five times a day, fast during holy holidays, and in many cases, take pilgrimage to sacred sites. In Islam, these acts are known as pillars. There are five pillars of Islam, which each Muslim must practice. The pillars consist of the belief in only one God, ritual prayer five times daily, giving to those in need, fasting through Ramadan (the holy month), and pilgrimage to Mecca (Muhammad's birthplace) at least once in a Muslim's lifetime. The first pillar, or the belief in one God, is key to understanding Islam.
