I suppose this could be looked at in several ways. I would say one mistake would be the order to fire on a group of riders given by Maj. John D. Barry. Barry's 18th NCI Regiment opened fire on what they thought was the enemy, but it turned out it was General Stonewall Jackson returning from a meeting with his aides. As far as giving the enemy an advantage, I would say this was a major turning point as Old Jack was a cornerstone of the army. One of the most common (and most costly) mistakes made is failure to seize and maintain initiative. When a commander has the initiative he is able to keep the enemy off-balance and to control many factors of the engagement. He can force the enemy to: fight in less than favorable conditions, to deploy troops and delay, to spend valuable resources attempting to contain attacking forces, to react to feints which open up the flanks or the rear to attack, and to fight in terrain not suited to the enemy force's strengths. By giving up the initiative, the commander opens his own force up to these same disadvantages.

It rose in 1464 C.E.

no it rose around the early 1400s and fell in 1450. It fell because they didn't use the 3 field farming technique and the land became hard, dry and unable to farm on.

This is completely wrong... The Songhai empire rose after it reconquered Mali around 1450 CE. They fell after an internal political collapse and they were attacked by Morocco around 1540 CE. They were unprepared and already weakened by the political collapse.

Islam is a way of life and teaches us how to be peaceful. It is the fastest growing religion in the world. It has many guidelines and rules, just like any other religion, but they are very easy to follow. Many people think that Arabs and Muslims are terrorists, but they are not. Violence is the last thing on their minds. They folllow the Quran which is their holy book and is said to be the only book that hasn't changed over all the years it has been revealed to them. Muslims are very kind people and make peace with everybody.
