Chapter 5: Society & Inequality

After I finished reading chapter five, which is on society and inequality I have come to a conclusion that would honestly rather live in china. I would rather live in china than India and the rest because in china I would not do hard labor work. I would live with my family if we are all crowded, it would honestly not matter to me because family to me means everything. The reasons why I would also rather live in china is because I would get to chose who I want to be married with. I honestly cannot believe the way peoples lives were thousand years ago. People would suffer so much. Peoples live in India was so harsh. The way peoples lives would be a rome was also harsh because of slavery and I would not want to be a slave at all.
At the end of this chapter, I honestly felt very blessed because I did not have to go through any of this and the way I live life now is completely different.

Chapter 9: The Worlds of Islam

 While reading chapter nine instead of a paragraph I decided to just do bullet points because it is easier for me to understand and I don't find it boring. It helps me memorize things a lot more. Hope you guys learn something and hope this helps you in a way! :) Islamic Civilization not only a network of faith, but also a network of exchange Exchange of: goods, technologies, food products, and ideas Even after the Arab Empire fell apart, the Islamic civilization continued to grow Major areas of Muslim expansion: India,Anatolia, West Africa, and Spain. India:   Islam was brought to India by Muslim Turks from Central Asia Violent invasions: destruction of Hindu and Buddhist temples žTheir conquests led to a series of Muslim-led governments in India Islam never became the dominant faith in India like it did in the Middle East, North Africa, and Persia Very sharp cultural divide between Islam and Hinduism Anatolia: Was governed by B...

Chapter 7

Something very interesting that stood out to me from the beginning of chapter 7 was the fact that the trading system is still being used today. The trading system has come a very long way and I am more than positive it will be used forever. Although the trading system is still being used today it is not the same. The trading system is being done completely different and because of that we now do not get disease like people from 500 B.C would. Something very interesting to me was the way that when trades when occurring many people would get diseases , death, and even religion would spread out. Now days, we do not hear much of that. It is not common for diseases to occur. Like religion would not get spread like it would before. The way that things would get trade was also different. Now we only used vehicles and before people would walk or they would use animals or their slaves.  Also, something important is that many people thought that the silk route was one route for trading, but ...

Chapter 6

Call To Action day:      On Tuesday, my volunteer work was having different activities with the kids from Notre Dame elementary kids. It was very interesting because I personally thought that the kids would get bored, well good thing that my group didn't. I love serving people its the best thing ever, specially kids because although they have no idea why we are doing it they appreciate it a lot and do not really question why you are doing it. Well of course we have those kids that ask those questions, but we explain to them. I love helping kids simply because at the end of the day I feel like I have impacted their lives one way or the other. Kids appreciate you helping them how to spell a word or how to cut a piece of paper and to me its always about the small things that matter. When I serve a student I hope one day when they grow up they do the same thing for someone else. When Im serving/helping someone I always remember about those people that served/helped me in a w...
