How did the domestic slave trade come about, and do you believe it was mostly different from, or similar to, the Atlantic Slave Trade?

Answers

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The domestic slave trade came about when wealthy people realized that they could have servants in their homes and properties to make them do the errands and daily house chores. For these wealthy families, it was also a symbol of power and status in society. The more slaves or servants you had, the more powerful your family was. Sad but true.

I think it was r similar to the Atlantic Slave Trade. at least, it was a similar principle. During the horrible slave trade, African slaves were captured from the African continent and were taken to the Americas to be sold to work in the large plantation fields, producing crops that were traded and exported. The trip to the Americas was unhuman and many slaves died during the trip in those overcrowded spaces in the ship, where diseases and infections spread quickly.

Answer:

The Domestic slave trade occurred when Africans would capture prisoners of war or criminals and integrate them back into society. The slave would work and do chores for a family, and be given a room in the house, food, etc. Over time the slave would be freed after serving their sentence. The Atlantic slave trade was the heavily brutalized version of that. Slaves would be treated as low-class animals, beaten, bonded, raped, etc. Unspeakable things would happen to them, and they were forced to leave their homes, without any actual rooms, they would sleep in barns and eat the same food as cattle.

how many years did it take for dutch to settle in to North America

Answers

Answer: About thirty years.

Explanation:

The Dutch colonization of North America began as early as the end of the 16th century, and it was already evident until around 1630. It was then that the Dutch established several trading centers in North America. With the establishment of the first trading colonies, the exploitation of the natural resources of North America and trade with the native tribes began. Among the first outlets to have some significance was the so-called "House of Good Hope." The Dutch traded with tribes such as the Pequot, Narragansett, Mohegan, and others. With the intensification of English colonization, the Dutch were suppressed as a major foreign factor in the New World, so that the English eventually took precedence.

How was Islam meant to complete what Judaism and Christianity had begun

Answers

Answer:

see below

Explanation:

Islam, Judaism, and Christianity are three of the world’s great monotheistic faiths. They share many of the same holy sites, such as Jerusalem, and prophets, such as Abraham. Collectively, scholars refer to these three religions as the Abrahamic faiths, since it is believed that Abraham and his family played vital roles in the formation of these religions.

Islam began with the Prophet Muhammad. Islam means "surrender" and its central idea is a surrendering to the will of God. Its central article of faith is that "There is no god but God and Muhammad is his messenger".

Followers of Islam are called Muslims. Muslims believe that they are following in the same tradition as the Judeo-Christian figures Adam, Noah, Abraham, Moses, and Jesus who they believe were significant prophets before Muhammad.

The Qur'an, the holy book of Islam, provides very little detail about Muhammad’s life; however, the hadiths, or sayings of the Prophet, which were largely compiled in the centuries following Muhammad’s death, provide a larger narrative for the events in his life (although there is significant debate in the Muslim world as to which Hadiths are accurate).  

Muhammad was born in 570 C.E. in Mecca, and his early life was unremarkable. He married a wealthy widow named Khadija who was 15 years older and his employer. Around 610 C.E., Muhammad had his first religious experience, where he was instructed to recite by the Angel Gabriel. After a period of introspection and self-doubt, Muhammad accepted his role as God’s prophet and began to preach word of the one God, or Allah in Arabic. His first convert was his wife.

Muhammad's divine recitations form the Qur'an and are organized into books (surahs) and verses (ayat). Because these revelations focused on a form of monotheism considered threatening to Mecca's ruling tribe (the Quraysh), which Muhammad was a part of, the early Muslims faced significant persecution. Eventually in 622, Muhammad and his followers fled Mecca for the city of Yathrib, which is known as Medina today, where his community was welcomed. This event is known as the Hijra, or emigration. 622, the year of the Hijra (A.H.), marks the beginning of the Muslim calendar, which is still in use today.

Between 625-630 C.E., there were a series of battles fought between the Meccans and Muhammad and the new Muslim community. Eventually, Muhammad was victorious and reentered Mecca in 630.

One of Muhammad's first actions was to purge the Kaaba of all of its idols (before this, the Kaaba was a major site of pilgrimage for the polytheistic religious traditions of the Arabian Peninsula and contained numerous idols of pagan gods). The Kaaba is believed to have been built by Abraham (or Ibrahim as he is known in Arabic) and his son, Ishmael. The Arabs claim descent from Ishmael, the son of Abraham and Hagar. The Kaaba then became the most important center for pilgrimage in Islam.

In 632, Muhammad died in Medina. Muslims believe that he was the final in a line of prophets, which included Moses, Abraham, and Jesus.

After Muhammad's Death

The century following Muhammad’s death was dominated by military conquest and expansion. Muhammad was succeeded by the four “rightly-guided” Caliphs (khalifa or successor in Arabic): Abu Bakr (632-34 C.E.), Umar (634-44 C.E.), Uthman (644-56 C.E.), and Ali (656-661 C.E.). The Qur'an is believed to have been codified during Uthman’s reign. The final caliph, Ali, was married to Fatima, Muhammad’s daughter and was murdered in 661. The death of Ali is a very important event; his followers, who believed that he should have succeeded Muhammad directly, became known as the Shi’a ("party" or "followers"), referring to the followers of Ali. Today, the Shi’ite community is composed of several different branches, and there are large Shia populations in Iran, Iraq, and Bahrain. The Sunnis, who do not hold that Ali should have directly succeeded Muhammad, compose the largest branch of Islam; their adherents can be found across North Africa, the Middle East, as well as in Asia and Europe.

During the seventh and early eighth centuries, the Arab armies conquered large swaths of territory in the Middle East, North Africa, the Iberian Peninsula, and Central Asia, despite on-going civil wars in Arabia and the Middle East. Eventually, the Umayyad Dynasty emerged as the rulers, with Abd al-Malik completing the Dome of the Rock, one of the earliest surviving Islamic monuments, in 691/2 C.E. The Umayyads reigned until 749/50 C.E., when they were overthrown. The Abbasid Dynasty assumed the Caliphate and ruled large sections of the Islamic world. However, with the Abbasid Revolution, no one ruler would ever again control all of the Islamic lands.

the declaration of independence declared that all men are equal so how can whites justify imposing the Jim Crow Laws across the south

Answers

The whites in the South tried justifying Jim Crow Laws by saying they were "separate but equal."

Explanation:

Jim Crow Laws were basically a way for the South to legalize segregation. Even after slavery became illegal across the United States, the South still tried to find ways to hold back African Americans.

Jim Crow Laws separated blacks and whites. They would have different bathrooms, water fountains, schools, pool tables, essentially everything. Southern whites refused to integrate African Americans into society and many still refused to see them as people.

They would say they were "separate but equal," even though they really weren't. Blacks were still treated very harshly and weren't given equal opportunities.

Explain connections between the experiences of immigrants arriving in the late 19th and early 20th centuries with the larger issue of worldwide migration in the 21st century.

Answers

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The connections between the experiences of immigrants arriving in the late 19th and early 20th centuries with the larger issue of worldwide migration in the 21st century are the following.

Immigrants have always considered the United States a land of opportunities. Since the advent of the Industrial Revolution that changed the lives of many people, immigration was a constant factor in the history of the United States. Indeed, since colonial America times, immigrants were the ones who gave birth to this nation. The United States is a country formed by immigrants.

So in the 19th century, most of the immigrants arrived in the United States trying to improve their living conditions and a better future. Many of them left their native countries because they were escaping from poverty, political persecution, or religious persecution. That is why they made the decision to risk everything and travel to the US.

In the 20th century, the United States opened official immigration stations to receive the number of immigrants that tried to enter the country. One was at Ellis Island in Newe York; the other was at Angel Island in San Francisco, California. The middle of the 1900s was a time of massive migration for the same reasons.

And unfortunately, in the 21st century, immigrant waves, nos from Central America, leave their native countries due to the harsh economic conditions there. They risk their lives crossing Central America and México, trying to reach the American Dream.
