What was the difference between Muhammad's experience in Mecca around the year 610 and his experience when he returned to Mecca from Medina years later?
Answer:
Explanation:
Prophet Mohammed (S.A.W) life before Hijirah (migration) to Medina was toughed as Meccans do not accept what he believed and the messages of Allah the Almighty. Most people of Mecca as at this time always look for ways of harming him and his followers. Within this period (610) he received his first revelation which was very strange to him in the mountain cave knowns as Gaira Hirah. However, he (Mohammed) that was not valued in his home town was highly welcomed on migrating to Medina where he settled and was able to propagate Islam peacefully.
On returning to Mecca after several military battles, he conquer Mecca and several other idol worshippers surrendered to him and power shifted to him. This was about 630 and at this time, there was peace in the land and many non-Arabs accepted Islam and Islam spread out towards West such as Spain, Morroco.
Answer:
When he first went to Mecca, he was kicked out, and when he returned, he and his ideas were welcomed.
According to the passage, at first, “Mecca's rulers didn't like” what Muhammad was saying, "so they kicked him out.” But when he finally returned, he “faced little resistance,” and “he had become a religious prophet and political leader.”

do Third party candidates rarely win elections
yes this is true, 3rd party candidates barely ever win elections especially in the united states where more independents win than 3rd party candidates. The only times the 3rd parties won vastly were when they took the identity of a fallen major party (ex: republican (wig), democrat (Democratic Republicans)).
Answer:
yes
Explanation:
they rarely win elections because they're parties that aren't democratic or republican. these two political parties dominate elections because of how many supporters there are. since third parties don't have a legitimate chance of winning, they influence national politics by forcing the major political parties to address new problems they wouldn't have normally thought about. they can also take away some of the votes that otherwise could have went for the major parties.

Answer:
Abraham Lincoln, the 16th president of the United States, was born on February 12, 1809 and died at the age of 56 on the 4th day of March 1861. Lincoln was the president of the United States for four years from 1861 to 1865. Lincoln was born in Hardin County in the state of Kentucky in a small cabin that only had one room. His parents, Thomas Lincoln and Nancy Hanks were farmers who had a large tract of land that measured 348 acres on which their cabin was situated. His parents were uneducated, however. Lincoln’s political career began in 1832 when he created a political campaign for a political party known as the Whig Party. This party was based on efforts that sought to improve navigation on the neighboring river. Ten years later, Lincoln married the love of his life, Mary Todd, with whom he had four sons. Unfortunately, only one of his four sons did not survive into adulthood. Lincoln’s participation in active national politics took a turn for the better in 1842 when he campaigned and was elected to the US House of Representatives. While at the House of Representatives, Lincoln accomplished a number of things including accrediting the American-Mexican war to then president, Polk. Lincoln was, however, not a popular figure with the democrats, due to his speeches that tended to go against the beliefs of the Democratic Party. In 1960, Lincoln’s political star had grown so much such that he was nominated by the Republican Party to become their presidential candidate. His temperate views on the issues of western origin and slavery are said to have significantly contributed to his preference as a Republican candidate. Throughout the election period, Lincoln did not give any speeches but instead gave the Republican organization charge of any speeches that were required. On the 6th day of November 1860, Lincoln assumed the highest office in the US when he was elected to the office of the president of the land. It was during Lincoln’s presidency that the Civil War began. This war began in the year 1861 and ended up consuming a large portion of Lincoln’s time as the president of America. Biographies of Lincoln report that Lincoln often found himself very frustrated by the events that were taking place in the war. The war eventually ended on the 9th day of April 1865 when Robert Lee decided to surrender in Virginia. The 14th day of April, 1865 is a popular day in Lincoln’s presidency because this is the day when, inside the Ford’s theater, Lincoln had gone to watch a play without his bodyguard who apparently had knowledge of the president’s planned assassination. It was while Lincoln watched the funniest part of the play, while seated on the balcony, that he was shot point blank in the head by John Wilkes Booth who had hoped that the noise from the cheers and laughter would swallow up the noise of the gunshot. Booth was captured, however, and the president passed away a few hours later.

Answer:
These are the answer choices for the question:
Venn diagram.
line graph.
bar graph.
pie chart.
table.
And this is the correct answer:
bar graph.
pie chart.
table.
Explanation:
A bar graph can show the world population of the six regions very well, by showcasing, in a vertical manner, the proportion of the population of each region in relation to the other regions.
The same is true for a pie chart, but in this case, the proportion would be shown as a section of a circle, the largest sections corresponding to the most populated regions, and the smallest to the least populated regions.
Finally, a table would not show the relative proportions in a graphical manner, but can be used to deliver the information in a clear, accurate and numerical manner.

How did the discovery of the Minoan culture most
likely impact historical conclusions about Atlantis?
A)It proved that other historical writings of Plato were
also true
B)It confirmed Plato's story and proved that Atlantis
was on Crete
C)It changed nothing because there is no solid
evidence linking the Minoans to Atlantis
D)It provided scientific evidence that the civilization of
Atlantis may actually have existed.
In the nineteenth century CE, a civilization called the
Minoans was discovered to have lived on the island of
Crete
Scientific evidence suggests that the Minoan culture was
destroyed by a tsunami.
Answer:
D)It provided scientific evidence that the civilization of Atlantis may actually have existed.
Explanation:
The Minoan culture which was believed to have existed around 3000 BC to 1100 BC was discovered around the 19th century.
However, the findings of how the Minoan civilization got lost is similar to that of the legend of Atlantis, the historical writings of a Greek Philosopher Plato.
Hence, while the descriptions of Atlantis are widely different from Minoan "It provided scientific evidence that the civilization of Atlantis may actually have existed."
Background information: This passage was written by Zhang Han, a member of the Ming administration. Merchants boast that their wisdom and ability are such as to give them a free hand in affairs. They believe that they know all the possible transformations in the universe and therefore can calculate all the changes in the human world, and that the rise and fall of prices are under their command. These merchants do not know how insignificant their wisdom and ability really are. . . . . . . “If farmers do not work, there will be an insufficiency of food; if craftsmen do not work, there will be an insufficiency of tools; if merchants do not work, circulation of the three necessities will be cut off, which will cause food and materials to be insufficient.” Foreigners are recalcitrant and their greed knows no bounds. . . . As to the foreigners in the Southeast, their goods are useful to us just as ours are to them. To use what one has to exchange for what one does not have is what trade is all about. What does Zhang believe about merchants? Merchants transform the economy by interacting with foreigners. Merchants are greedy, insignificant, and boastful. Merchants hold a lower position in society, but trade can be valuable. Merchants are wise and command the economy
