History

<span>Because there were limited sources of power, industrial development during the early 1700s was initially slow. Textile mills, heavy machinery and the pumping of coal mines all depended heavily on old technologies of power: waterwheels, windmills and horsepower were usually the only sources available.  Changes in steam technology, however, began to change the situation. As early as 1712 Thomas Newcomen first unveiled his steam-driven piston engine, which allowed the more efficient pumping of deep mines. Steam engines improved rapidly as the century advanced, and were put to greater and greater use. More efficient and powerful engines were employed in coalmines, textile mills and dozens of other heavy industries. On the other hand, spinning of cotton into threads for weaving into cloth had traditionally taken place in the homes of textile workers.</span>

What types of reform did the Pahlavis introduce ? How did Iranian citizens respond ?
anyanavicka [17]
The first Shah of the Pahlavis Dynasty, Reza Shah came to power by means of a coup in 1921 and was able to secure power over the political and government system within a few years. He did so by establishing social structure and order, eliminating any threats to his power through rebellion, and having himself named Shah in 1925. Reza Shah wanted to implement sweeping reform programs including projects meant to industrialize Iran and improve access to public education and healthcare. While these programs were meant to help the Iranian people, some reacted harshly to his authoritarian style authroitarian style of rule and many religious and educated peoples spoke out against the ruler. 

Reza Shah was eventaully displaced from power, placed into exile by the British and succeeded by his son, Mohammad Reza Shah. Like his father, the second Pahlavi ruler supported reform programs meant to develop Iran's economy and support it's people. However, these attempts were meant with reservations by many people who faced more economic hardship and disparity rather than oppporutnity. This resentment led many to support revolutionary ideas and movements, which eventually saw the collapse of the Shah's government in 1978 and 1979.

Anna11 [10]

<em>1) Which of the following best describes the origins of Christianity?</em>

d) It emerged from Judaism and was based on the teachings of Jesus.

The Law and the Prophets -- the holy books of Judaism -- became the Old Testament of the Christian faith. The New Testament was added to that, which described the life of Jesus (in the Gospels) and expounded on the teachings of Jesus (in the Epistles).

<em>2) Which aspects of Jesus's teachings would influence Roman and other legal systems?</em>

c) ideas about justice

The influence of Christian ideas about justice would especially take root in the Roman Empire as the empire itself became Christianized. By the 4th century, even the emperor, Constantine, became a convert to Christianity. From that point on the empire was dominated by Christian thought.
