<p>maya had the concept of zero so thats why i was unsure and also incas had phenomenal road system</p>

<p>Well I believe they did have animals, just never invented the wheel.</p>

<p>They had a very good road system, but it was mostly used to move rocks for building walls.</p>

<p>spread Christianity beyond Jewish community?
thats what i picked. it was a question from previous or practice test</p>

<p>did paul spread it outside of the jewish community or to the gothics? i was torn, but i said the jewish one.</p>

<p>The wheeled cart answer wasn't 0...I know for a fact that Maya had the concept of zero.</p>

<p>2006 December WH</p>

<p>Q: Why is Saint Paul considered the second founder of Christianity?</p>

<p>A: He was instrumental in spreading the religion beyond the Jewish community to Gentiles</p>

<p>Was the building in the picture the Hagia Sophia?</p>

<p>was the building a fusion of islamic and christianity architectural techniques?</p>

<p>result of treaty of nanking- china opened ports?</p>

<p>what did eurasmus not agree with?</p>

<p>what action of the british did not increase indian nationalism?
i said giving them an army because i wouldnt imagine that the british would do that anyways.. despite the fact that they had indian troops serve in their army during ww1</p>

<p>The Treaty of Nanking opened the ports. I'm not sure about the other answers (I said "the end justifies the means" for Erasmus) but I put the same answers as you did.</p>

<p>im trying to remember as many as can</p>

<p>jainissaries-ottoman
sharia-islamic law
gandhi- saragyhta (sp)
us- cotton
brazil-most sugar
brazil and guyana-no spanish (portugese)
brazil-peaceful 19th century revolution
muhammad to medina from mecca-beginning of islamic calendar</p>

<p>erasmus - end justifies the means
what action British did not increase nationality - India’s textile industry</p>

<p>i think gandhi one was to reform caste system.</p>

<p>slaves to us-5%
song dynasty-gun powder, movable type, etc
cold war- duh. that was a stupid question.
british to india-cricket
containment-avoiding spread of communism
quote about marshall plan</p>

<p>Was the answer to the questions about Muslims in Southeast Asia Malacca?
And why did the Portuguese come up with a new sea route?</p>

<p>no the term "sataygraha" means civil disobedience
its definitely right</p>

<p>yeah but the same question was on last year's test and people said it was to reform caste system. i even saw the question in some prep book.</p>

<p>malaca yes
portugese i said because of the ottomans</p>

<p>east africa traded with arabs most?
said that because of swahili-bantu + arab</p>

<p>What about the Herodotus/Homer passages?</p>

<p>the first one was competition to hospitality
and it showed heroism</p>

<p>and i dont remember the other one</p>

<p>population trend 1750-1914

and the last question with the cartoon, none of the answers really made sense but i said the one about communism</p>
