TIMELINE - Empires

One of the key features of the time period 1200-1400 is the development of the state in different parts of the world; Islamic caliphates, medieval kingdoms in Europe, Chinese dynasties, African kingdoms, and new world empires in the Americas. Some of these empires are linked through trade (Africa and Asia, for example) and some are not yet in contact (pre-Columbian Americas).

Create a timeline of empires from 1200-1400. You may choose which to include (hint: see key terms above) and the dates can be approximations. (For example, Mali Empire 1230-1450). You should have at least 8 -10.

Please include the name and location of the empire Descriptions can be short.

Our goal here is to have a visual overview of the various forms of governments/civilizations across the world at this time.

the answer to your question is c

the correct answer is "pioneers carried all of their possessions on long and dangerous trails".

the first wave of pioneers travelled in 1842. they were merely 100 people. the next year that sum climbed to 1000 men, women, and children. these people travelled around 2,000 miles to oregon in the hopes of a better life. although the first part of the trip didn't present many obstacles, as time and miles went by they learnt that threat came from simple things, like becoming ill due to unclean water or bad food.

the weather didn't much, as wagons couldn't protect them from storms. as they travelled through the desert, the intense heat caused wood to shrink. their own lips abscessed and split because of the dry air. the only cure for this was to rub axle grease on their lips.

even crossing rivers was dangerous. sometimes wheels were damaged by unseen rocks on shallow water. mud didn't much either. pioneers were afraid of indian attacks, but there aren't many records of fights between pioneers and native americans. accidents happened because of negligence, exhaustion, guns, and bad weather.

history says that 1 of 10 pioneers who travelled to oregon didn't survive the journey. diseases spread fastly because they didn't have doctors and medical care was ofently improvised. one of the most deadly diseases they came upon was cholera, which became a worldwide pandemia.
