What events contributed to the end of apartheid?
Well not many people know this but yes there were people fighting against each other etc. etc. But the main reason apartheid was scraped from the books is because a few years back there was a vote where 51% of the white population voted against apartheid and that black people should have a vote while the other 49% voted for aparthed (I can be wrong but it really is this close). It was decided that black people should have the right to vote by 51% of white people because they originally didn't have a vote. This caused Mandela to come out of prison eventually. Thus, it wasn't Mandela or anyone from ANC who made apartheid stop but actually the white people who where sick and tired of fighting for something that would inevitably be lost.
Who spread islam to africa?
Islam is a religious, political and military movement alltogether. The religion works as strong motivation to either the conquest from within of a country (politics) or the military invasion. In the early centuries of Islamic expansionism, the military conquest was the prevalent way of subjugating other conutries and Empires. From the very first beginning, Islam had been supported by the military conquests. The conquest of the (modern day) Arabian peninsula was conducted under the military leadership of Muhammad, but after his death, other leaders (caliphs) took over and got along the military invasion of all North Africa and the Hispanic peninsula, the Levant, Persia, Afghanistan, Central Asia, etc. The invasions was halted in the west by Franks counterattack (Battle of Poiters and Toulouse) and in the East by a Federation of Hindus kingdoms (Battle of Rajasthan, in 738).Once the countries were subdue, the muslims retained the status of conquerers in order to implement a religious-aparthed, while the native populations was treated as second class citizens, with almost no rights than paying taxes to the islamic masters.Under the pressure of duress, the native started to convert in order to escape the religious-apartheid status, starting from the poorest classes.
