History of the Middle East

Reeds were grown to build boats in Mesopotamia

Oh, dude, it's like you're testing my music knowledge now. So, like, Sting was totally in The Police, right? And Andy Summers was jamming with them too. But, like, Lionel Richie? Nah, man, he was probably too busy dancing on the ceiling to be in The Police.

Yes, there is a Japanese emperor whose name starts with the letter "M." Emperor Meiji, also known as Emperor Mutsuhito, reigned from 1867 to 1912 during the Meiji Era. He played a crucial role in modernizing Japan and transitioning it from a feudal society to a modern nation-state.

Well, darling, that would be a "pontiff." They're the big cheese in charge of a city-state, strutting around in their fancy robes and making all the important decisions. Just don't expect them to start performing miracles anytime soon.

as the time line was splitted into two halves known as: B.C. (before christ) and A.D. (anno Domini) there was a confusion lead by some wrong calculation as to when was Jesus the Christ born. A.D. 1 started about a week later the Christ was born, and that was about 2000 years ago. there is no certain date to tell which was the actuall year when the Christ was born. To avoid this confusion, astronomers considered a point in the time line as a zero "0", referred to as the time when the christ was born. and started counting as A.D. 1, A.D. 2..as the years followed. and before that they counted as -1 B.C., -2 B.C... as we've studied in maths in number lines chapter. this counting down is done just to make calculations easier for the astronomers and others uses. there is no zero "0" year as such.

i knw 5 of his discoveries or contributions to science: 1)He emphasized systematic experimentation, and did mush to free chemistry from superstition and turn into science. 2)He invented over 20 labrotary equipments. 3) He was the first one to classify, purify, and isolate mercury and sulfur as elements. 4) He discovered the citric acid and acetic acid. 5) He invented (aqua regia) one of the few substances that can dissolve gold. 6) He also paved the way for later Islamic chemists: Al Razi, Al Kindi........... 7) He dsicovered the processes distillation and crystallization. Thx and hope I helped.....I have other contributions too but they r 2 long sry :D....

Oh honey, let me spill the tea for you. The Hanging Gardens of Babylon supposedly took around 10 years to build, according to the ancient texts. But hey, who's counting when you're busy creating one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, right?

One can listen to Arab music online in many different web pages. Some of the websites one can listen Arab music are Live 365 radio, Listen Arabic or Isma3.

Oh, dude, that's an easy one. The large peninsula in Southwest Asia is called the Arabian Peninsula. It's like this huge chunk of land that sticks out into the Arabian Sea and the Persian Gulf. So, yeah, that's where you'll find countries like Saudi Arabia, Yemen, and Oman hanging out.

The question as posed is rather convoluted. I want to say "YES" to the "essence" of the question, i.e. the UN did take a vote integral to Israel becoming a country, but I have to say "NO" since the UN did not actually vote Israel into existence.

The UN voted (affirmatively) on the legitimacy of the Jews of Palestine declaring independence as a state distinct from the more numerous Arabs of Palestine. This vote legitimized the Israeli Declaration of Independence, but did not cause it.

Most people incorrectly believe when the UN passed UNGA Resolution 181 (II) on November 29, 1947, that the UN "created" a Jewish State (Israel) and an Arab State (Palestine) on the map. This is not the case. What the UN Resolution does provide for is the permission for the different ethno-religious groups in Mandatory Palestine to declare a state. In the case of most mandates, the understanding was that the mandate would eventually become independent as one new state, like Iraq or Syria had. The case of Palestine was therefore unique and needed the permission to deviate from the traditional path of independence. Because of there being two states, provisional borders had to be provided, which is why a map was used, but those borders would only come into play if both sides decided to remain at peace.

The Jews acted on the permission granted to them by UN Resolution 181 by declaring independence on May 14, 1948 (nearly six months after the Resolution was passed) and therefore creating the State of Israel.

O Aeroporto Nacional de Israel é chamado Aeroporto Internacional Ben Gurion (em hebraico, נמל התעופה בן-גוריון). É frequentemente abreviado como "Aeroporto Ben Gurion" ou "TLV," que é o seu código IATA. O aeroporto está localizado próximo à cidade de Lod, a cerca de 15 km a sudeste de Tel Aviv. É o principal aeroporto internacional de Israel e o mais movimentado do país.

There is no Arab country that crosses the equator. Somalia is a member of the Arab League and crosses the equator, but its people are Somalis, not Arabs.

The Arab Spring is the outcome of a number of repressive policies against Arab citizens from their own governments. This anger was fomenting in the Arab populaces (at different rates in different countries) pretty much since the Independence Movements secured the European Colonizers' retreat. The reason the Arab Spring did not happen earlier is that most Arabs did not believe that they had the power to overthrow their governments. The ouster of Zine Abidine ben Ali in Tunisia changed that view and encouraged Arabs in different states to revolt against their leadership.

Coastal plains in the Arab world are important for various reasons, including providing valuable agricultural land, supporting coastal communities and fishing industries, facilitating trade and transportation through ports, and serving as a crucial buffer zone between the sea and inland areas. They also contribute to the region's biodiversity and ecosystem services.

The Arabs ofyen face sandstorms, as they live in deserts. they then cover themselves with the cloth over their heads.

Those who stayed in Israel, or their grandchildren, are still there, working at jobs, running businesses, attending or building mosques, going to school, and voting or running for positions in government.

Those who 'escaped' to neighboring countries, or their grandchildren, are still there. Many are still in 'refugee camps', having been refused citizenship and social or economic participation in their 'host' countries.

Arabs believed that the Earth was stationary and that the Sun, planets, and stars revolved around it in a geocentric model of the Solar System. They also believed that the universe was finite and enclosed by a series of celestial spheres.

Ibn Sina (Son of Sina, or Avicenna as he's known in the West) has contributed to geography in many ways, see the link below.)

The above answer is only partially correct. Ibn Sina was not a cartographer nor an explorer and did not attempt to expand mankind's knowledge of landmass location. However, he was very important in the field of geology, discussing how mountains rise, basic meteorology and weather patterns, and seismic activity among other earthly phenomena.

The Arabian Peninsula has limited farming due to its arid climate, which is characterized by high temperatures and low precipitation. This aridity makes it difficult to cultivate crops without extensive irrigation, and much of the land is better suited for pastoralism or nomadic lifestyles. Additionally, the rocky and sandy terrain further hinders large-scale agriculture.

Ptolemy, the ancient Greek geographer, influenced Arab mapmakers through his work on cartography and geography. His detailed maps and writings were translated into Arabic during the Islamic Golden Age, leading to the development of advanced mapmaking methods in the Arab world. Arab mapmakers built upon Ptolemy's ideas and made significant contributions to the field of geography.

The 3 non-Arab countries in the Middle East are Israel, Turkey, and Iran.

Hemophilia B is called the Christmas disease because it was first discovered in a young boy named Stephen Christmas who experienced severe bleeding after a minor injury on Christmas day in 1952. This incident led to the identification of hemophilia B as a distinct type of hemophilia caused by a deficiency in clotting factor IX.

The largest city in the Arab world is Cairo, the capital of Egypt. It is a vibrant and bustling metropolis that is not only the largest city in the Arab world but also one of the largest cities in Africa and the Middle East.
