can someone help me write an essay about the beliefs, weapons, and armor? please actually help me ;-;
With few exceptions, arms and armor of virtually all periods and from all the world’s cultures were decorated to varying degrees. The desire to embellish objects of everyday and special use was naturally extended to those that served such important purposes as obtaining food, self-defense, and maintaining power. Most cultures valued weapons and armor as signs of rank and status, as traditional symbols of the warrior class, and as diplomatic gifts. However, it was the use and function of the individual weapon or armor that determined why, how, and to what extent an object was decorated.
While the equipment of the common man-at-arms was often plain or the decoration kept to a minimum, it was the arms and armor of the higher levels of society—nobility, military commanders, and elite warriors—that would conspicuously be adorned with costly decoration (2008.638.1). In times when wealth equalled power, this degree of decoration was as much an expression of the wearer’s status and rank as it was indicative of the value placed on such arms and armor by the owner. However, on arms and armor for practical use, on the battlefield or for hunting, care was taken that the decoration did not impede function. Only the equipment and accoutrements for tournaments and especially for ceremonial use were sometimes so lavishly decorated that the importance of the decoration began to supercede the function of the actual object. A somewhat different variety is the symbolic decoration that was meant to empower both the object and its owner with magical and apotropaic qualities, to justify claims to power or to denote religious beliefs, education, and sophistication.
In the Museum’s collection of arms and armor, the diversity of decoration of earlier periods and various cultures is represented with such outstanding examples as a Mesopotamian gold and silver axhead (1982.5) of the late third to early second millennium B.C., and a presentation model of a Colt Percussion revolver (1995.336) of the mid-nineteenth century with elegant gold inlay.
Some of the foremost artists of their time—painters, draftsmen, and goldsmiths—were actively engaged in designing arms, armor, and their decoration, or decorating the objects themselves. Cennino Cennini’s famous handbook on artistic techniques, Il libro dell’arte, written around 1400, describes how to make crests for helmets used in tournaments. Many court painters appear to have also been involved in the embellishment and painting of banners and shields. Artists such as Albrecht Dürer, Hans Burgkmair, and Hans Holbein drew elaborate designs for cannons, sword hilts (2000.27), scabbards, armor, and etched decoration of various parts of armor, while field and tournament armors were etched with designs of exquisite quality by printmakers like Daniel Hopfer (1471–1536). Since the sixteenth century, famous goldsmiths and silversmiths such as Bartolomeo Campi, Étienne Delaune, or Elisaeus Libaerts became involved in the designing and decorating—even the production—of armor, sword hilts (2010.165), and firearms (1972.223).
Decoration itself could take many forms. The simplest was the addition of separate decorative and/or symbolical elements to an otherwise strictly functional object or group of objects, for example, the crests on helmets of the European knight and Japanese samurai. More sophisticated decoration involved the mechanical alteration of an object’s shape, form, and surface, or adorning the latter in a variety of artistic techniques and styles with additional materials such as paint, semi-precious and precious metals and stones, textiles, and fur. In many cases, various materials and different artistic techniques might be combined to decorate one object or group of objects.

Answer: How was armor made in medieval times?
Scale armour made from small overlapping pieces of iron attached to a cloth or leather backing like fish scales were worn but were rare amongst European knights. A variation was 'penny plate' armour which was made up of small disks held together by rivets through the centre of each piece
What was a knight's main weapon?
sword
How did weapons change in the Middle Ages?
The sword, symbol of the chivalric code and his noble status, was above all the knight's most important weapon. With a heavy blade one metre in length, a 'great sword' had to be held with both hands and was remarkably stable in design from the 11th to 15th century CE
As defense mechanisms improved weapons were also improved. Curtain walls, moats, portcullises, towers and drawbridges improved the castle's defense. Castles were used for military purposes and defended troops, nobles and kings. Curtain were the first line of defense for a castle.
Why did knights stop wearing armor?
Armour cuirasses and helmets were still used in the 17th century, but plate armour largely disappeared from infantry use in the 18th century because of its cost, its lowered effectiveness against contemporary weapons, and its weight.
European warriors of the early Middle Ages used both indigenous forms of military equipment and arms and armor derived from late Roman types. One of the most widely used types of helmet was the Spangenhelm. Body armor was usually either a short-sleeved mail shirt (byrnie), made up of interlocking iron rings, or a garment of overlapping scales of iron, bronze, or horn. Shields were oval or round and made of light, tough wood covered with leather. Metallic mountings lined the rims. A hole in the center of each shield was bridged by a hand grip inside and a shield boss outside. Weapons were the spear, sword, ax, and the bow and arrow.
At the height of the Middle Ages, Saint Anselm (ca. 1033–1109) listed the equipment of a knight: his war horse (which by the thirteenth century was protected by mail and fabric), bridle, saddle, spurs, hauberk (a long-sleeved mail shirt, sometimes with a hood, or coif), helmet, shield, lance, and sword. Toward the end of the twelfth century, a new flat-topped type of helmet with side plates, which hid the face of a knight, became popular. To distinguish friend from foe, the knight’s triangular shield was painted with identifying symbols. By 1200, mail for the legs, called chausses, was commonly worn by mounted warriors. Later, boiled leather or steel pieces protected the knees (kneecops), while small squares of the same hard materials covered the vulnerable shoulder joints (ailettes).
By the fourteenth century, the improved crossbow was able to pierce shields and mail armor. To counter this, knights first wore a poncho-like coat with small rectangular plates riveted to it, while articulated plate armor was developed for the legs, arms, and hands. The small, square, convex shield of the time (the targe) was eventually relegated to use in tournaments, since improved body armor made it unnecessary. A new form of helmet joined the all-encompassing great helm and the wide-brimmed chapel-de-fer (war hat). This was the more streamlined, close-fitting bascinet, with a curtain of mail (camail) from chin to shoulders, which frequently had a movable visor. By the late 1300s, solid breastplates first appeared to protect the chest as part of the short, tight-fitting coat of plates called a brigandine, while smaller plates covered the abdomen, hips, and back.
Within a few years, by about 1420, full head-to-toe plate armor was in use, completing the image of the knight in shining armor.

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.
Islam spread through military conquest, trade, pilgrimage, and missionaries. Arab Muslim forces conquered vast territories and built imperial structures over time.
Answer:
Islam becan in the middle east and spread to branching areas through trade with other countries such as Africa. also spread through the columbian exchange where African slaves brought the Islamic religion to the America's.
Islam has both good and bad influences on the world. Good because its a large religion so its more common and known of, gives people an option if they'd believe in Allah. Bad because many believe if you are a Muslim you are automatically bad or a terrorist. Also the conflicts between the Christian faith. I think that's good :)

How did the people react to the Articles of Confederation?
Also please add multiple article links and names as I need to cite sources
Answer: One of the biggest problems was that the national government had no power to impose taxes. To avoid any perception of “taxation without representation,” the Articles of Confederation allowed only state governments to levy taxes. To pay for its expenses, the national government had to request money from the states.
Explanation: extra info: what result happened The Articles created a loose confederation of sovereign states and a weak central government, leaving most of the power with the state governments. The need for a stronger Federal government soon became apparent and eventually led to the Constitutional Convention in 1787 also how it impacted: Having learned from the failures of the government created by the Articles of Confederation, the delegates at the Constitutional Convention created a government that not only provided mutual defense against outside threats, it also created a central government strong enough to reign in and withstand internal threats and represent unified national interests to the world.

What do Egyptian leaders know about the ancient city of Leukaspis? Why do they want to turn the city into an open-air museum? Use facts and examples from the lesson in your answer.
MARINA, Egypt. Today, the city of Marina, Egypt, contains many vacation homes. The nation's rich go to Marina to play on the white beaches of the Mediterranean Sea. But 2,000 years ago, this resort town was the location of a thriving port city. The ancient city was known as Leukaspis or Antiphrae. In the fourth century, it was nearly wiped out by a tsunami. The city remained hidden for 2,000 years. More recently, in September 2010, Egyptian leaders were preparing to put the remains of Leukaspis on display for the public to see.
"Visitors can go to understand how people lived back then, how they built their graves, lived in villas, or traded in the main [square]," said Ahmed Amin. He is a government official. "Everyone's heard of the resort Marina; now they will know the historic Marina."
Constructing a resort town on top of an ancient city might have destroyed the old city's remains. However, Leukaspis was not buried further. Instead, the construction led to its discovery. Engineers began cutting into the sandy coast in 1986. They were preparing to build roads for the new resort. That's when they uncovered ancient tombs and houses. They realized that they had unearthed what was left of a city founded in the second century BCE.
Leaders set aside 200 acres (about 80 hectares) of the region for archaeology. Gradually, a picture of Leukaspis developed through its remains. At one point, the city was part of the Roman Empire. Its advanced layout and construction reflect that. Ancient Leukaspis' tombs, villas, and city streets offer a rare example of a city from this time period.
Leukaspis was a thriving port town. At its height, up to 15,000 people lived there. The city exported grains, livestock, wine, and olives to the rest of the Mediterranean region. Merchants lived in elegant two-story villas set along zigzagging streets. Rainwater collected from roofs ran down special hollowed-out pillars into channels under the floor. These channels led to family water tanks.
The town center was located where the two main streets cross. It was the heart of the city. There, visitors can see the remains of a basilica. This was a hall for public events. It later became a church after Christianity spread across the Roman Empire. A semicircular space lined with benches provided a space for town leaders to discuss business.
Most of Leukaspis' jobs came from the Mediterranean Sea. And from the sea came the city's end. In 365 CE, a major earthquake near the Mediterranean island of Crete set off a tsunami. Leukaspis was largely destroyed. Nearby Alexandria was also destroyed.
In the last few years, the Egyptian government has become more interested in spreading knowledge about the country's Roman period. As a result, officials turned their attention to Leukaspis. In 2005, they asked Polish architect Agnieszka Dobrowlska to return. Dobrowlska had helped unearth Leukaspis in the 1990s. Officials wanted Dobrowlska to work on the project to turn ancient Marina into an open-air museum for tourists.
Dobrowlska felt that the project couldn't have come at a better time. Without interest in the project, ancient Marina might have been destroyed while the resort was being built.
Creating the museum is part of a plan to make Marina more than just a summer place for Egyptians. Officials hope the ruins will attract tourists from many different countries. If they are successful, then officials might create museums for other nearby locations. If that happens, Egypt's ancient history could live on for centuries to come.
