Piyudalismo at manoryalismo
Under the feudal system in medieval Europe, society was organized into a strict hierarchy. At the top was the king, who granted land to barons in exchange for their loyalty and military service. Barons then divided the land among lords, who ruled local manors. In turn, lords protected peasants who lived and worked on the land, farming the fields and paying taxes to their lord. Control over land and what it produced was thus crucial to the social and political structure of feudalism.

The basic practices of Islam, called the Five Pillars, are the confession of faith, daily prayers, alms giving, fasting during Ramadan, and the pilgrimage to Mecca once in a lifetime if able. Some countries with large Muslim populations include Indonesia, Pakistan, Nigeria, Egypt, Turkey and others.

Each brother wanted to go a separate way - Czech south, Rus east, and Lech decided to stay where they were. Lech became the first Duke of Poland and the people began building a town called Gniezno at that spot, taking the white eagle as their emblem. The town became the capital of their emerging
Astrology George Efrem
Astrology originated in ancient Mesopotamia in the 3rd millennium BC and was used to predict seasonal shifts and interpret messages from the gods. It was widely accepted in Europe until the 17th century when scientific astronomy undermined its theoretical basis. In the 20th century, astrology gained popularity through newspaper horoscopes. Astrology developed differently in ancient Egypt, Babylonia, India, Persia, and Europe, integrating various cultural influences over time. Common forms of astrology include sun sign astrology and astrological progressions to predict future trends.

Natural sources of energy group4
This document summarizes several natural sources of energy: wind turbines convert kinetic energy from wind into electricity, solar panels convert sunlight into electricity or heat water, hydropower harnesses the energy of falling or running water, biomass refers to biological materials that can be burned directly or processed into biofuels, and electric vehicles use electrical energy stored in batteries to power electric motors for propulsion.
Natural disasters Group6
This document discusses various natural disasters connected to water. It defines floods as an overflow of water that submerges land, usually due to excessive water in a river, lake, or from heavy rainfall. Drought is defined as an extended period without sufficient water supply. Earthquakes result from a sudden release of energy in the Earth's crust that causes seismic waves. Volcanic eruptions occur when a volcano actively releases lava and gases. Tsunamis are large ocean waves caused by earthquakes, landslides, or volcanic eruptions displacing water. Hurricanes are large storm systems that form over warm ocean waters and bring strong winds and rain.
Natural disasters Group 6
This document defines and describes different types of natural disasters including floods, tsunamis, storms, limnic eruptions, and cyclones. Floods are defined as overflow of water that submerges dry land. Tsunamis resemble rapidly rising tides rather than waves and arrive in wave trains. A limnic eruption occurs when carbon dioxide erupts from deep lake water, endangering wildlife. Cyclones are storm systems with low pressure and thunderstorms that produce strong winds and rain by feeding on heat from rising moist air.
Natural disasters Group5
Natural disasters connected with water can include floods, limnic eruptions, tsunamis, and storms. A flood occurs when an overflow of water submerges land, usually caused by heavy rain or melting snow that causes a river or lake to overflow. A limnic eruption happens when gases like carbon dioxide erupt from deep lake water, endangering wildlife and humans. Tsunamis are large sea waves caused by earthquakes or landslides under the sea. Storms are disturbed weather conditions involving strong winds, rain, snow, or other precipitation.
Natural disasters Group4
Natural disasters connected with water can include tsunamis, storms, and floods. A tsunami is a series of waves caused by the displacement of a large volume of water, often triggered by earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, or landslides under the sea. Storms generally lead to severe weather like heavy rain, flooding, lightning, or strong winds that can damage property. A flood is an overflow of water that covers land not usually submerged, which can occur when a river, lake, or rainwater rises and spills outside of normal boundaries.
Natural disasters Group3
This document summarizes different types of natural disasters connected to water: storms, floods, tsunamis, and heavy rainfall. Storms are strong gusty winds over bodies of water. Floods occur when water overflows river or lake banks or from heavy rainfall, including areal, riverine, and coastal flooding. Tsunamis are series of waves caused by displacement of water, often due to earthquakes. Heavy rainfall consists of water droplets that have condensed from vapor and fall due to gravity, impacting at increasing speeds with larger droplet sizes. All of these natural disasters can cause loss of life or property damage.
Natural disasters Group2
Floods occur when bodies of water overflow their normal boundaries due to excessive water accumulation. Hailstorms form when rain drops become ice before hitting the ground, and heavy hailstorms can damage agriculture. Strong winds over bodies of water produce storms and dangerous waves. Tsunamis are caused by underwater earthquakes and have much longer wavelengths than ordinary waves, enabling them to destroy coastal areas. Acid rain forms from air pollution and causes acidification of land and water. Landslides are sudden movements of soil and rock masses often triggered by heavy rainfall or thawing that threaten natural and valley slopes. Fog reduces visibility dangerously by suspending water or ice crystals in the air. Ocean currents are directed sea water movements produced
Natural disasters Group1
The document discusses several types of natural disasters including avalanches, floods, tsunamis, storms, and limnic eruptions. Avalanches pose a constant danger of killing many people and animals. Floods from heavy rain or storm surge endanger both populations and infrastructure in urban areas. Tsunamis occur when an enormous wave of water floods inland areas. Storms bring strong winds and huge waves out at sea. Limnic eruptions are rare events where dissolved carbon dioxide erupts from deep lake water, suffocating wildlife, livestock, and humans near the lake.

Reincarnation by Constantinos Patsalis
Reincarnation is the belief that when one dies, one's soul is reborn in a new body. This is a central tenet of Hinduism and Buddhism and is also found in other religions and tribal societies. There are debates around what exactly is reincarnated - the soul? consciousness? The majority of Abrahamic religions like Christianity and Islam do not believe in reincarnation, seeing life as linear with an afterlife, rather than cyclical rebirth.
Spiritual Fathers
This document discusses spiritual fathers in Christianity. It explains that many Christians view spiritual fathers as mentors who guide them in living according to Christ and achieving spiritual salvation, beyond their natural fathers. It notes that some of the greatest modern spiritual fathers live at Mount Athos in Greece, called the Holy Mountain. It lists several famous spiritual fathers from the 20th century, including Father Paisios, Father Porfirios, Father Filotheos Zervakos, and Father Ieronimos of Aegina. The document concludes that even after death, spiritual fathers like Paisios continue to help people through miracles, such as appearing in visions, making prophecies, and discerning people's problems upon first meeting them.
Life after death by Stephanos Chilides
This document discusses life after death according to Buddhist beliefs. It states that at the time of death, the vital energy that powered the physical body is released into the universe. This energy then propels the subtle body away from the earth and to different planes of existence, with the weight or karma of the subtle body determining which plane it goes to. So death is just the end of the physical body, while the energy and subtle body continue on, as energy cannot be destroyed.
Judaism by Antonia Kattou
Judaism is a religious tradition and cultural identity of the Jewish people that originated in the ancient land of Israel. It is one of the oldest monotheistic religions still practiced today. The core beliefs are that God revealed laws and commandments to Moses, and Jews follow teachings from the Torah. The symbol of Judaism is the Star of David, though historically the menorah was also an important symbol. Synagogues are the places of Jewish worship and study.
Judaism by Pavlina Paschalidou
Judaism dates back to around 1800 BC and developed as the traditional monotheistic religion of the Jews. Key teachings of Judaism include believing in one God, treating others well, honoring the Sabbath as a day of rest, praying regularly, and studying Jewish texts to gain wisdom. Today, Israel is the only country where Jews make up a majority of the population, though there are also large Jewish populations in places like the United States and some European countries. Sources of information about Judaism include academic blogs and websites outlining its key teachings.
Hinduism by Theodoros Panayiotou
Hinduism's early history is difficult to define because there was no single "Hinduism" historically and it encompasses many traditions without a definite starting point. Hinduism's history is closely tied to social and political developments in South Asia over many thousands of years. Hindus generally believe that time is cyclical rather than linear, moving through successive ages of deterioration until the current "Iron Age" of cruelty and materialism.
Buddhism by Eleni Georgiou
Buddhism originated in India and is based on the teachings of Siddhartha Gautama, known as the Buddha, who lived between the 6th and 4th centuries BCE. The Buddha taught that life is suffering due to craving and ignorance, and that one can be liberated from suffering by eliminating craving and ignorance through understanding dependent origination and attaining nirvana. In Buddhism, karma refers to intentional actions that have moral consequences, and rebirth is understood as the continuation of a dynamic, ever-changing process determined by karma rather than the transmigration of a soul.
The rock of Digenis
Digenis was in love with Rigena and asked her to marry him, but she said she would only if he brought her water from distant areas of Cyprus. Though difficult, Digenis succeeded but Rigena didn't keep her promise, angering Digenis who threw a giant rock near her house. Another myth says Digenis lifted a huge rock and threw it into the sea to save Cyprus from invaders.
The Rock of Degenis by Constantinos
The Rock of Digenis, also known as Petra tou Romiou, is a solitary rock formation in northern Cyprus that is the subject of a famous Cypriot folk tale. According to the legend, Digenis transported water for his love Rigaina from a distant location through clay pipes, though she did not keep her promise to marry him. Enraged, Digenis threw a huge rock at Rigaina's house, while she threw her spinning needle at Digenis in return. Traces of the clay pipes can still be seen, and the rock formation and needle remain as landmarks related to the myth. The area around the Rock of Digenis is a popular tourist attraction for its natural beauty.
