Which part of Texas did the Comanche live in?

The Comanche ruled an large area on the Southern Plains which was known by the Spaniard as Comancheria (the land of the Comanche). The Comancheria extended from the Arkansas River in Kansas in the north to the Edwards Plateau in southcentral Texas in the south, from the eastern edge of the Llano Estacado (Staked Plains) of New Mexico to to the Cross Timbers in eastern Texas. In the end it encompass portions of Kansas, Oklahoma, New Mexico as Texas. On their raids the Comanche, together with the Kiowa and Kiowa Apache, ranged even further south, north and west. They had especially bad relations with the mighty Osage and Pawnee people to their north and northeast, and the various Apache nations to the south and west were traditional their worst foe. As Spanish allies they raided Western and Chiricahua Apache rancherias in Arizona as well as in Sonora and Chihuahua. The same they acted against the Lipan and Mescalero Apache in southern Texas, New Mexico as in Coahuila, Chihuahua, Tamaulipas and Nuevo Leon.


Who were the five emperors of the Han Dynasty?

There's more than 5 emperors in the Han dynasty. Liu Bei, Cao Cao & Sun Quan were of the Three Kingdoms Period which is actually considered separate from the Han dynasty at the time it occurred. But in history books it's under the Han dynasty. Dong Zhuo & Yuan Shao were warlords, never emperors!

How did increased trade along the trade routes help spread Christianity?

In Asia (particularly in the early centuries) trade routes had a huge effect. Of course, in a sense this is obvious. Without electronic media, Christianity as a faith and as a message had to be carried by people... which necessitated the use of trade routes.However, there is more than that.1. Christianity grew along trade routes and trading centers. Early church centers of Antioch (Syria) and Alexandria were funnel points for east-west trade. Duro-Europos in Mesopotamia, Samarkand, Burkhana, and the Southwest coast of India were all trade centers and centers of Christianity. A look at the spread of Christianity showed that it tended to go along the two major Asia trade routes. One was the land route that went from Antioch, Mesopotamia, Persia, Central Asia, Tarim Basin, to China. The other was the sea route that went from Alexandria (crossing land) to the Red Sea, Yemen, India, and Indochina. There is good correlation between the trade routes and the planting of churches, monasteries, schools, hospitals, libraries, and metropolitans.2. Christian missions in the 1st millenium, at least, often used trade as an intentional method of missions. Missionaries were often involved in trade. Bishops often worked with traders. The high point of this method was in the 7th century when the Patriarch Yeshuyab II of the Church of the East (sometimes called the Nestorian Church) used the overland trade route to bring Christianity to China and plant churches and monasteries all along the route.3. The nature of trade centers probably was more conducive to the spread of Christianity. Trade centers were more multicultural. Monocultural regions could be a barrier to the spread of the faith. However, where many different cultures co-exist, a level of acceptance of a new faith and new ideas could take root. Additionally trade centers were more multi-lingual than surrounding communities. This could make the spread of Christianity easier. Finally, trade centers were more accepting of foreigners. Some had districts that were for different cultural groups.It is hard to say definitively if there is a correlation between the trade route activity and the spread of Christianity. However, increased trade would make the path for Christianity's spread easier. It would make trade as an intentional strategy for missions more palatable. It would also make the trading centers more conducive to new ideas and new people. Therefore, I believe a correlation could be inferred.A short article at www. dakilangpagibigministries.org in the DOWNLOADS section under documents discusses this in greater detail. It may or may not be informative. However, the Bibliography provides many good sources of individuals and articles who know much on this topic.yep sure did


What happened to the relationship between the Native Americans and the colonists after the French and Indian War?

The relationship between Native American societies and European colonists (and later U.S. Americans) changed depending upon the time period of interaction, the specific indigenous society in question, the U.S. policy towards Native Americans, and Supreme Court decisions. The term "Native American" is one created by the United States that is both a racial and political identity. This is due to the fact that Native American societies entered into political treaties with the United States that recognized their political status as sovereign nations. Europeans generally viewed Native Americans (and other non-Europeans) as inferior to themselves, in large part because Europeans were overwhelmingly Christian and non-Europeans were considered "heathens" and "uncivilized." Nevertheless, early interactions revealed that Native American societies in New England weren't technologically inferior to European colonists and that the relative positions of each were closer than commonly believed. The diets of Native Americans were often more nutrionally balanced than those of Europeans. The use of indigenous foods in European societies greatly improved their health and lives. Some major foods were maize (corn), beans, squash, tomatoes, potatoes, peppers, avocados, and various berries. It is estimated that over half of the foods commonly used today are of Native American origin. One major reason Native American societies came under the influence of Europeans is the widespread decimation of their societies due to European diseases that Native Americans did not have immunity against. Upwards of 90 percent of Native Americans (depending on the society) fell victim to diseases. This created political advantages for European colonists and neighboring indigenous nations. U.S. policy towards Native Americans is commonly delineated into several periods: Coexistence (1789-1820s) Removal and Reservations (1830s-1880s) Assimilation (1880s-1932) Reorganization (1932-1945) Termination (1946-1960s) Self-determination (1960s-present) Note that the four middle periods are associated with genocide. Apart from the "Commerce Clause" in the U.S. Constitution, Native American political autonomy, or "tribal sovereignty", was shaped by several Supreme Court decisions that defined Native American societies as independent nations to a status of "domestic dependent nations." It was further shaped by acts of Congress: "The Marshall Trilogy" Johnson v. McIntosh Cherokee Nation v. Georgia Worcester v. Georgia Indian Removal Act Indian Appropriations Act of 1871 United States v. Kagama The General Allotment Act of 1887 or the "Dawes Act" Indian Citizenship Act of 1924 or the "Snyder Act" The Wheeler-Howard Indian Reorganization Act Termination policy Indian Civil Rights Act Oliphant v. Suquamish Indian Tribe Self-Determination policy Indian Child Welfare Act Duro v. Reina Today, the United States maintain its plenary power over indigenous societies. U.S. citizenship was unilaterally extended to Native Americans in 1924. Although the U.S. Consitution states that U.S. Congress is to direct relations with Native American nations, this has been delegated to the executive branch within the Department of the Interior through the Bureau of Indian Affairs. Many indigenous societies exercise a degree of political autonomy but is subject to the approval of federal bureaucratic power. This is referred to as "government-to-government relations." Religious beliefs and imperial expansionism motivated the United States to occupy Native American lands across the continent and justify genocide. Native Americans often entered treaties under duress that surrendered their lands to the United States in exchange for guaranteed smaller land bases (reservations), the U.S. protection, and other federal obligations (such as education, healthcare, etc.). However, the United States government has broken all treaties made with Native American nations. The acquisition of natural resources for agriculture and mining led to U.S. incursions. In fact, some present-day Native American governments were created by the United States for the explicit purpose of acquiring these resources, often at the expense of Native American ecosystems, traditional lifeways and social systems. Today, Native Americans are largely patriotic and participate at higher rates proportionally in the U.S. military than most other racial groups. Other Native Americans wish to pursue decolonization at varying degrees as a way to preserve their cultures and societies. Overall, the relationship between Native American nations and the United States is imbalanced with the U.S. imposing its hegemony over Native American nations as colonial occupiers. Native American nations are treated as subordinate, though individual Native Americans are guaranteed the same individual liberties and rights as any other American citizen.
