<p>Map of Africa: pretty sure it's the Gold Coast or C</p>
<p>yes, textiles, arms and somethign else</p>
<p>yes to all on this page basically
and i can confirm that its brazil
(in kaplan)</p>
<p>african leaders- something about people (soldiers, maybe) who fought in the WWII. that's my guess</p>
<p>Can we confirm the US/European universities answer?</p>
<p>i said european universities</p>
<p>west coast africa were the big empires in i forgot what time period</p>
<p>and then they were most helped by reconstruction by arabs</p>
<p>What's the weakness of Byzantine Empire?</p>
<p>Mali- Controlled gold trade?
Nobel Peace Prize Girl- Pushed for nonviolent reforms and democratic rights in Myanmar?</p>
<p>Barron's p338 - "the seeds of leadership had been planted [...] by educated Africans who studied in Western countries became acquainted with Marxist and liberal thought."</p>
<p>i think the weakness was no established way to pass down the throne</p>
<p>Kai - I put the same answers </p>
<p>======================
btw, people posting here, what are your average scores in practice tests? (Barron's/Kaplan/CB)</p>
<p>in general: barrons was good for info, but it felt really wordy. i felt like they could have said every page in 5 concise bullet points.</p>
<p>Byzantine - e) no rule for succession of throne </p>
<p>was what i put</p>
<p>Mali-yup
Nobel peace prize- Aung San Suu kyi, and yes, democracy for Myanmar</p>
<p>around 740 kaplan, 760 collegeboard, 700 barrons
the second practice test in kaplan, the one after the diagnostic test, was hard. but i got A LOT of info from those tests for today that i did not know through studying.</p>
<p>Byzantine empire didn't have a navy to fend off the attacks though...</p>
<p>I put the navy answer...</p>
<p>i put emperor because that was one of the contributions that led to the downfall of the roman empire (26 people claimed the throne)</p>
<p>and no one attacked the byzantines by land
it was all germanic tribes from the north
so i thought it was irrelevant</p>
<p>Was the answer about Hitler and Germany the pacifist movement? It just seemed too easy...</p>
<p>fear of communism is what i put</p>
