Africa is home to a variety of crops, livestock, and cultural practices. Savannah regions grow grains like millet, sorghum, and maize while the Sahel region closer to the Sahara grows cotton and watermelon. Livestock like cattle, goats, and sheep are raised but seldom killed since animals represent wealth. Large families with many children are valued as they provide security, wisdom, and increase wealth and honor for the family and clan. Religion incorporates belief in a Supreme Being as well as lesser gods and spirits that inhabit objects, and sacrifices are made to receive blessings. Islam arrived through trade caravans and slaves brought from Southeast Asia.

Extended families and lineage groups provided the basic social structure, and while women held important economic roles, societies were usually patriarchal. Religions varied but often involved belief in supreme beings, ancestors, and an afterlife. Slavery, trade, and the spread of Islam impacted African cultures over this period.

Ch 12 Sec 3 "Napaleon"
The document summarizes the key events and reasons that led to the French Revolution. It describes the social hierarchy in France prior to the revolution with the First Estate as religious leaders exempt from taxes, the Second Estate as nobles also exempt from taxes, and the heavily taxed Third Estate comprising the majority of the population. Economic troubles and the political incompetence of King Louis XVI and Marie-Antoinette further contributed to unrest. The formation of the National Assembly and Tennis Court Oath led to the storming of the Bastille and establishment of a constitutional monarchy. The Declaration of the Rights of Man was signed and a Reign of Terror period of mass executions followed before the Directory assumed leadership of the new government.
Ch 4 Sec 3 "Mongolian Empire
1. The Mongol Empire was formed by nomadic Mongol tribes united under Chinggis Khan in the 13th century.
2. Chinggis Khan divided the Mongol tribes into military groups and established a law code, creating a powerful empire through conquest.

2. The Great Famine was caused by heavy rains ruining crops for several years, leading to widespread starvation as people consumed their seed grains and farm animals. An estimated 25% of the population died from starvation or illness.
3. The Hundred Years' War began as a dispute over the French throne between the English King Edward III and French King Phillip VI. It involved many battles between the English and French for over a century
Ch 2 sec 4 Confrontation with Islam
Constantinople was a difficult city for Muslim armies to defeat due to its strategic location surrounded by water on two sides and rugged terrain making it easily defended, thick and extensive city walls, and their use of Greek fire, a chemical weapon that burned upon impact and spread when doused with water. The Battle of Tours halted Muslim expansion into Europe when Charles Martel, nicknamed "the Hammer", led European troops to victory over the Muslims.
Ch 7 Sec 4 "Consequences of European Exploration"
European exploration had several consequences for indigenous populations. Catholic missionaries converted many Indians to Catholicism and sought to protect them.

Ch 6 Sec 3 "Reformation"
The Reformation began in the 15th-16th centuries as reformers like John Wycliffe, John Huss, and Martin Luther spoke out against corruption and doctrines of the Roman Catholic Church. Wycliffe produced the first English language Bible and taught that salvation could not be revoked. Luther wrote the 95 Theses arguing against indulgences and realized salvation comes through faith alone, not works. The Reformation spread across Europe through reformers like Zwingli and Calvin and led to common Protestant doctrines like sola scriptura and sola fide. In response, the Catholic Church launched the Counter Reformation to combat heresy through means like the Jesuits and Inquisition.
Ch 5 Sec 2 "Decline of Feudalism
As towns formed and trade grew, feudalism began to decline in Europe. Nobles established towns and granted charters to townspeople, allowing self-governance while collecting taxes. Strong centralized monarchies also developed, like those of William the Conqueror and Henry II in England and Hugh Capet and Phillip II in France, reducing the power of nobles. In England, common law was established under Henry II and limitations on the monarchy through documents like the Magna Carta and the rise of Parliament under Edward I.
Ch 11 Sec 3 "Safavid Empire"
The Safavid Empire was founded in the 16th century by Shah Ismail I in the region between the Ottoman Empire and India.

Ch 12 Sec. 2 & 3 "Napoleon"
Napoleon took control of the French government, pushing aside the other two councils to become the dictator of France. He set about codifying French laws and conquering other nations, but was eventually defeated at Waterloo and sent into exile on St. Helena in the South Atlantic. Nationalism arose in the early 1800s as countries like Greece, Belgium, and Poland sought independence from empires like the Ottoman Empire, the Dutch Kingdom, and Russia.
Ch 5 Sec 3 "Expansion of Europe"
The document summarizes the Crusades and their impact. It discusses that the Crusades were launched by the Pope in 1095 in response to Muslim control over Jerusalem. The first Crusade succeeded in gaining control over some land but it was lost. Later Crusades failed and instead attacked Muslims and others with differing religious doctrines. The Crusades benefited the Roman Church through expanded influence, nobles through wealth and land gains, and merchants through profitable supply deliveries. The Crusades resulted in many deaths but also spread knowledge and technology from Muslims to Europe and increased trade and development of new social classes in places like England.
Ch 11 Sec 2 "Ottoman Empire"
Under the rule of Mehmet II, the Ottomans conquered Constantinople in 1453, renaming the city Istanbul and making it the permanent capital of the Ottoman Empire. The Ottomans developed one of the most advanced fighting forces in the world using new weapons like small cannons and muskets as well as cavalry tactics. They established a stable government through a simple taxation system and use of qualified officials regardless of background. Trade passing through the empire to the East was essential to Ottoman success.
Ch 5 Sec 1 "Medieval Europe"
During the medieval period in Europe:
- Germanic tribes migrated into the weakened Roman Empire and became the foundation of medieval European kingdoms. The Merovingian dynasty ruled but lost influence, and the mayor of the palace became the real power. The Carolingian dynasty then rose to power, with Charlemagne being crowned Holy Roman Emperor by the Pope in 800.
Under Charlemagne, education spread and feudalism developed as a system where land was divided from king to nobles to serfs in exchange for loyalty. The Roman Catholic Church also gradually gained political power and influence over medieval European society. However, medieval Christianity differed significantly from biblical Christianity and many people were ignorant of basic biblical teachings.
Ch 2 sec 1 "The Origins of Islam"
Muhammad founded the religion of Islam in the 7th century CE after experiencing visions from the angel Gabriel. He taught that there is only one God, Allah, and recorded his revelations in the Qur'an. Muhammad fled persecution in Mecca by moving to Medina in an event known as the Hegira. After Muhammad's death, leadership of the Muslim community passed to Abu Bakr and later Ali, splitting Muslims into the Sunni and Shiite sects. The core beliefs of Islam are outlined in the Five Pillars: the shahadah creed, daily prayer, almsgiving, fasting during Ramadan, and the hajj pilgrimage to Mecca at least once in a lifetime
Ch 10 Sec 2 "Explorers - Spanish & Dutch"
Alvaro de Mendana was a Spanish explorer who sailed west from Spain and named the island chain he found the Solomon Islands after King Solomon from the Bible. During Mendana's second voyage with Pedro Fernandez de Quiros, they miscalculated their route to the Solomon Islands and instead discovered new islands which they named the Marquesas Islands after the viceroy of Peru. Many of their crew, including Mendana, died from fever on the next island they discovered, which Quiros named Santa Cruz after taking command of the expedition. Dutch explorer Abel Tasman subsequently discovered Tasmania, New Zealand, and parts of Australia.

Geography & Early West Africa
The document summarizes key aspects of early West African geography, resources, way of life, and trade. It describes the varied climates and crops of West Africa, including dates, kola nuts, and grains. Gold was mined from the rainforest and salt came from the Sahara Desert, which was important for food preservation. Most West Africans lived in extended families and had gender roles where men hunted and farmed and women managed domestic duties. They also practiced animism and ancestor worship. The discovery of ironworking in 500 BC improved farming. Wealthy kingdoms arose due to gold and salt mining and trade over land and Saharan routes of these resources to North Africa and beyond.
8.1
Early African civilizations developed diverse societies between 1500 BC and AD 700 to adapt to Africa's varied geographic regions. West African societies organized around family clans and local religions, with oral traditions instead of writing. By 500 BC, West African cultures produced iron tools and weapons, and the earliest sub-Saharan cities like Djenne-Djeno emerged as trade centers by 600-200 BC, demonstrating advanced civilizations in West Africa long before European contact.
Profitable production and marketing of meat goats and sheep
Profitable production and marketing of meat goats and sheepUniversity of Maryland Extension Small Ruminant Program
This document discusses strategies for profitably marketing meat goats and sheep. It outlines that profit is calculated as income minus costs. Ways to increase profit include reducing costs through efficiency and increasing income through higher quality or quantity of animals sold or higher prices. Current high meat prices are due to low domestic supply and strong demand, especially from ethnic groups. The main ethnic consumer groups for goat and lamb are identified. Marketing strategies like knowing ethnic holidays and slaughter preferences can help target these ethnic markets. Wholesale and retail marketing approaches are compared.ย

Tiv 2012
The Tiv people live in Nigeria and Cameron as farmers who grow crops like yams, maize, and peanuts. Their traditional social structure involved living in stockaded villages or family compounds, with a patrilineal system and polygynous marriages where each wife had her own hut near the husband's reception hut. Men were responsible for farming tasks like clearing land while women did weeding, harvesting, cooking, and child rearing.
West africa (before 16th century)
West Africa had complex societies before the 16th century that are often overlooked. The region includes countries like Nigeria, Ghana, and Senegal. People lived in family groups and clans, and some settled villages and towns along trade routes. Larger towns and cities specialized in crafts and trade. Gold and salt were the most important traded goods, along with crops, livestock, and other materials. Between the 16th-19th centuries, the slave trade disrupted societies as millions of Africans were taken abroad.

West african medieval culture
West African medieval culture was characterized by clan-based societies where the good of the group came before individuals. Kinship groups formed the basis of government and decision making. Labor was specialized, with men tending animals and clearing land for farming while women prepared food, cared for children, and worked in fields. Religion was an important part of daily life and centered around animism, though Islam and Christianity were introduced through trade. Trade helped cities grow and kings rose to power by controlling trade networks and playing a religious role in society.
World History Ch. 10 Section 1 Notes
The spread of iron technology after 500 BC enabled more effective farming and population growth in Africa. Iron tools made clearing land for agriculture easier and improved weapons increased survival. The Bantu people then migrated widely, spreading knowledge of ironworking and agriculture throughout the continent. This led to more complex societies, especially in southern Africa by 900 AD, with status determined by cattle herds.
anything about AFRICA
Africa is considered by most scientists to be the oldest inhabited region, with early humans originating there over 7 million years ago. Some of the earliest human fossils have been found in Africa, including Australopithecus afarensis nicknamed Lucy. African cultures have a long history dating back to ancient civilizations like Egypt and Great Zimbabwe. Today, Africa has over 2,000 distinct ethnic groups who retain diverse cultural traditions, though Islam and Christianity are the most widely practiced religions.
Persians Phoenicians Hebrews
The document provides information on the Phoenicians, Hebrews, and Persians. It can be summarized as follows:

Ch. 2 Sec. 2 The Spread of Islam
The document discusses how Islam spread from the 7th century. The Byzantine and Sassanid Empires had weakened after 200 years of conflict, leaving societies tired of heavy taxation and diverse populations with little unity. This allowed Arab Muslims to establish control over vast lands. Initially, Muslims tolerated other religions if they paid a tax, though this changed after the Crusades and adopting the rule that converting from Islam was punishable by death.
Ch. 1 Sec. 1 The Beginnings
The document summarizes the origins of the human race according to Genesis. It describes how God created the world in 6 days and created man in his image to rule over the earth.

Ch. 19 Sec. 1 Following WWII
After WWII, Europe and Asia underwent significant changes - Germany and Berlin were divided between the Western allies and Soviet Union, while the US took sole responsibility for rebuilding Japan and establishing a new constitution with Douglas MacArthur's supervision. The Cold War emerged between the capitalist West led by the US and the communist East led by the Soviet Union, which was expanding its sphere of influence and led countries to live under the Iron Curtain. When the Soviet Union blocked land access to West Berlin, the US airlifted food and supplies for over 300 days, and later the Korean War broke out as North Korea invaded South Korea, drawing in the US under Douglas MacArthur's command until a ceasefire was reached along the 38th Parallel dividing line.
Ch. 19 Sec 2 Democracy vs Communism
The US became involved in Vietnam due to fears that if South Vietnam fell to communism, other Southeast Asian countries would follow suit under the "domino theory." While initially sending advisors, the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution allowed the US to take military action. However, the US struggled against opponents in Vietnam due to jungle terrain and lack of clear targets, as well as growing dissent at home. The Tet Offensive of 1968 was a major surprise attack that turned US public opinion against the war, leading to the Vietnamization policy of gradually withdrawing troops while continuing support for South Vietnam.
Ch 18 Sec 1 World War II
The key causes of WWII were the rise of dictators like Hitler in Germany, Mussolini in Italy, and Hirohito in Japan. Germany's economy was ruined after harsh treatment following WWI, including huge reparation payments. Countries were increasingly aggressive in expanding their borders, which the weak League of Nations struggled to address. Germany openly disregarded the Treaty of Versailles and remilitarized the Rhineland. Hitler's invasion of Poland in 1939 marked the official start of WWII in Europe, while Japan's attack on Pearl Harbor drew the U.S. into the war in 1941.
Ch 18 Sec 2 European Theater
Germany attacked France and cornered Allied forces at Dunkirk, but bad weather allowed the British navy to rescue troops across the English Channel. Germany then bombed Britain for over 3 months but failed to break the Royal Air Force. Hitler invaded the Soviet Union to seize its resources but faced scorched earth tactics, and later turned his attention to the Pacific by attacking islands like the Philippines. Several key events turned the tide of war, including Germany fighting on two fronts after invading the USSR, the US entering the war after Japan's attack, Italy surrendering following the Allied invasion of Sicily, and the Allied D-Day invasion of France leading ultimately to Germany's defeat on V-E Day in 1945, after which the US dropped atomic
Ch. 17 Sec. 1 Prelude to WWI
World War I was caused by militarism, imperialism, and a system of rival alliances between European powers. Countries had built up large militaries and still sought to expand their territories abroad. This caused tensions that were further exacerbated by networks of alliances like the Triple Entente between Britain, France, and Russia, and the Central Powers of Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Italy. The immediate trigger of WWI was the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria-Hungary, leading Germany to declare war on Russia and the outbreak of fighting among most European nations.
Ch. 17 Sec. 2 WWI
Germany's Schlieffen Plan to quickly defeat France by invading through Belgium backfired when Belgium resisted and Britain joined the war in support of the Allies. This led to stalemate as massive casualties mounted on both sides without major gains, resulting in trench warfare with both sides developing new weapons like tanks, poison gas, zeppelins and airplanes. The war became a total war effort by all countries as it dragged on for years until the US entry in 1917 and a German-supported Bolshevik revolution in Russia reduced enemies for Germany, leading to the Treaty of Versailles ending the war that blamed and punished Germany.
Ch. 17 Sec. 3 and 4 After the War
After World War 1, several dictators rose to power in Russia, Germany, and Italy. In Russia, Vladimir Lenin led the Bolsheviks and became dictator after the execution of Czar Nicholas II. In Germany, Adolf Hitler led the Nazi party and declared himself dictator after gaining power. In Italy, Benito Mussolini led the Fascist party and was appointed leader after marching on Rome. These dictators consolidated their control and rebuilt their militaries, undermining the peace efforts of the League of Nations and other post-WW1 agreements.
Ch. 17 Sec. 5 The Great Depression
The Great Depression was caused by the financial devastation of World War I, with the US loaning money to allies who did not repay, the failure of the Federal Reserve to control interest rates, and the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act raising prices of foreign goods and reducing US exports. This led to about 1/3 of the workforce becoming unemployed even as Hoover and later FDR created numerous government programs to stimulate the economy and help the unemployed in the face of the crisis.
Russian Revolution
The document summarizes Russian history from Catherine the Great's rule in the late 18th century through the reign of Nicholas II in the early 20th century. It describes Russia's harsh climate and serf-based agricultural system. It notes key events like Catherine expanding Russia's territory, Alexander II abolishing serfdom but not providing land for freed serfs, and Alexander III and Nicholas II cracking down on dissent through censorship, persecution, and pogroms against threatening groups. Napoleon's 1812 invasion of Russia is also summarized, where the Russian winter and scorched earth tactics helped defeat the French armies.

Finally, it provides details on reforms in Britain that expanded voting rights and increased the power of the House of Commons, as well as rising anti-Semitism in Europe during the Dreyfus Affair in France.
Ch. 14 Sec. 2 "Changes in Culture and Education"
Romanticism emphasized emotion over reason and often depicted peaceful rural scenes, while Realism sought to portray life realistically, including the negative aspects of industrialization in works by Charles Dickens and Leo Tolstoy's War and Peace. Education reforms occurred across Europe in the 1800s, with Britain establishing Sunday schools and building public schools, Germany requiring primary education for all children, and France's Jules Ferry forming a system mandating attendance until age 15 under one of Europe's finest systems.
Ch. 14 Sec. 3 Science and Technology

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
