How did the silk road affect trade?
Asked by Wiki User
The Silk Road trade resembles a chain because one merchant would buy a product off another and travel more down the Silk Road, let's say if all of the cheap silk is on the West part of Asia, a merchant would buy it and walk down the road and sell it for more then he bought it, the reason it's a chain is because merchants do it back and forth, the further they go, the more money it costs.

How did the silk roads help spread buddishm?
Asked by Wiki User
Siddhartha Gautama (c. 563-483 BC), the founder of Buddhism, was born a wealthy prince in northeastern India (map 2). Renouncing worldly trappings and achieving enlightenment, or nirvana, he became known as the Buddha (the Enlightened). Gautama lived at a time of great religious ferment in India, and Buddhism was one of a number of sects that aimed to reform Hinduism. Another, more extreme, reform movement was Jainism, whose asceticism was a reaction to the rigid ritualism of Hinduism.
While Buddhist missionaries taught the Buddhist principles many took the religion with them and spread it. Buddhism shared with Hinduism the belief in the cycle of rebirth, but differed in the way in which escape from the cycle could be achieved. Indeed the appearance of Buddhism stimulated a resurgence in Hinduism, which may be why Buddhism failed to take a permanent hold in India.
