Kumukh is an ancient village in Dagestan, Russia that has historically been an important center for the Lak people. It contains an 8th century mosque and was formerly the residence of the Kumukh khans, who ruled over the Laks. Kumukh became Islamic in the 8th century after an Arab conquest, though some pagan and Christian traditions survived into the 15th century. In the 14th century, the rulers of Kumukh adopted the title of "shamkhal" and ruled over much of central Dagestan until the Laks broke away in 1640. Kumukh was later formally incorporated into the Russian Empire in the 19th century.

Derbent
Derbent, located on the Caspian Sea coast of Dagestan, is the oldest city in the region, dating back over 5,000 years. It sits in a narrow seaside valley between the mountains and the sea, forming a strategic location. Throughout its long history, Derbent served as an important fortress, protecting eastern countries from invaders traveling along the only road between Southeast Europe and the Near East. A citadel called Narynkala was built in the 6th century AD atop a hill near the mountains and walls, with defenses extending into the sea and mountains to block nomadic tribes. Today, Derbent remains an economic and cultural center of Southern Dagestan, known for its vit
Izberbash
The settlement of Izberbash in Dagestan, Russia originated in 1931 as a camp for oil workers developing nearby oil deposits. In 1949, it was granted town status. Today it is a multi-ethnic town of 40,000 people located 65km south of the capital Makhachkala. The name Izberbash comes from the Turkish word "izbar" meaning a mountain pass, which was changed by German engineers to "Izberg" and later to the current name by the local population. Izberbash has grown from marshes and swamps into a town with wide streets, trees, gardens, high-rise buildings, industrial enterprises, and cultural sites.
Kizlyar
Kizlyar is an industrial, cultural, and transport center located in the estuary of the Terek River in northern Dagestan. It has been an important settlement since the 17th century, but gained city status in 1735 when a new fortress was built, establishing it as a multinational town and southern outpost of the Russian Empire. In the 18th century, Kizlyar developed as a center for ethnographic research and exploration of natural resources in the Caucasus region. The town endured great hardships during World War II but preserved cultural traditions and strengthened social bonds, developing new industries after the war to become a stable economic and political center of northern Dagestan.

Russia was first united under Viking ruler Rurik in the 800s. In the 10th century, Princess Olga governed Kiev until her grandson Vladimir converted Russia to Christianity. Vladimir's son Yaroslav the Wise led Kiev to its height but his dividing of the realm after his death weakened it. The Mongols then conquered Russia in the mid-1200s and ruled for 200 years until Moscow began reviving under princes like Ivan I and Ivan II, who challenged Mongol rule and freed Russia from tribute in the 1400s.
Makhachkala
Makhachkala is the capital and largest city of Dagestan, located on the coast of the Caspian Sea. It was founded in 1844 as a Russian fortress and grew significantly after an earthquake in 1970 with help from other Soviet republics to rebuild. Today Makhachkala has over 500,000 residents and is an important industrial, educational, scientific, and cultural center of Dagestan with dozens of factories, six institutions of higher education, and cultural sites like theaters and museums.
Kizilyurt
Kizilyurt is located in Dagestan on the banks of the Sulak River. It is one of the youngest towns in Dagestan, originating in the 18th century when fortresses were built along the Sunzha, Terek, and Sulak Rivers. One such fortress at the point where the Sulak River flows from the mountains onto the plains helped establish the new town of Kizilyurt. The population was originally very poor and engaged in farming and cattle herding, but irrigation projects, utilities, and industrialization in the late 20th century transformed Kizilyurt into a modern town with developed infrastructure.
12.3 the mongol empire
Kublai Khan conquered China and established the Yuan Dynasty in 1279, becoming the first non-Chinese ruler of the region. As emperor, he adopted Chinese customs and encouraged foreign trade, inviting merchants to China. One such trader was Marco Polo, who visited Kublai's court and later wrote accounts that helped introduce Chinese culture to Europe. However, the Yuan Dynasty declined in the late 1300s due to overtaxation and rebellions, leading to the rise of the native Ming Dynasty.

Transportation In Ancient China 1 Cody
The ancient Chinese built various water vessels as early as 4000-10000 years ago during the Neolithic Age to transport goods and people along coastal routes. Over time, Chinese shipbuilding evolved into large oceangoing vessels similar to those used by Christopher Columbus. For land transport, most common citizens walked or rode horses, while some could afford ox-drawn carts or chariots; the military primarily used horse-drawn or ox-drawn wagons for transporting soldiers and supplies.
China transportation
Ancient Chinese transportation began with walking and horseback riding until the development of wheeled carts and chariots around 1200 BC. During the Qin Dynasty, the first paved roads up to 50 meters wide were constructed out of stone slabs, some with preserved horse hoof prints. Early water transportation along China's long coastline and rivers was important, including the first sailboats in the Shang Dynasty and the large fleets used by Zheng He that sailed as far as Africa.
Victorian era transportation
Horse-drawn carriages were the most common mode of transportation in Victorian England. There were two types of carriages - open and closed. Earlier carriage designs from 1890 included open designs technically called coaches. One of the busiest bridges in London was crossed by 22,000 vehicles and 110,000 pedestrians daily. Carriages and bicycles were popular but carried risks, while walking was the cheapest option. The type of transportation revealed social status, as owning a carriage was initially only for the upper class due to expenses. Steam engines were beginning to be used at the end of Queen Victoria's rule.

The Silk Road
The ancient Silk Road originated in Xi'an, China and traversed through regions of China like Shanxi province and the Hexi Corridor before entering Central Asia and eventually ending in the Mediterranean. To protect caravans carrying silk and other goods, the Han government sent Zhang Qian on a diplomatic mission in the 2nd century BC to build relationships with tribes along the route. This helped establish the Silk Road as a safe trade network between China and the West. Centuries later, during the Tang Dynasty, Buddhist monk Xuanzang traveled westward on the Silk Road, helping spread cultural exchange. Trade along the Silk Road peaked under the Yuan Dynasty in the 13th century before eventually declining as sea trade rose.

CHAPTER 4
THE EMERGENCE OF THE OTTOMANS
In the second half of the seventh/thirteenth century, as the Seljuk state
fell apart, a number of principalities (beyliks) of a new kind came into
being in the western marches of Anatolia. They were in territory con-
quered as a result of holy wars (sing., gha%a) waged against Byzantium,
and hence are known as gha\i states. The Ottoman principality was one
of these. It was destined within a century to unite Anatolia and the
Balkans under its sovereignty, and to develop into an Islamic empire.
Let us now examine as a whole the formation of these gbifcy principalities.
The emergence of the Ottoman state can be understood only in the
context of the general history of the marches.

It seems that current missionary work requires spending a lot of money, preparing a lot of materials, and traveling to far away places, so that it feels like missionary work. But what was the result they brought back? It's just a lot of photos of activities, fun eating, drinking and some playing games. And then we have to do the same thing next year, never ending. The church once mentioned that a certain missionary would go to the field where she used to work before the end of his life. It seemed that if she had not gone, no one would be willing to go. The reason why these missionary work is so difficult is that no one obeys God’s words, and the Bible is not the main content during missionary work, because in the eyes of those who do not obey God’s words, the Bible is just words and cannot be connected with life, so Reading out God's words is boring because it doesn't have any life experience, so it cannot be connected with human life. I will give a few examples in the hope that this situation can be changed. A375
