<p>Any answer choices? I am pretty positive it's not Judaism itself - Judaists never liked converts. And peace and other Jesus stuff doesn't really apply to EARLY Hebrew prophets.</p>
<p>lakerboy, I thought it had something to do with Oceania</p>
<p>Society with most natural disaster efforts - I would say Incas because they were very good administrators. That's the only reason I chose them.</p>
<p>Which were the one society that didn't do extensive sea trading? = Incas?</p>
<p>^ I eliminated Incas...i remember reading from Barrons that they found some incas stuff in the southwestern US and the caribbean islands or vice versa i forgot</p>
<p>For the trade question...it's all about phrasing :( lol. All of the societies traded. But I don't think the Incas had a major sea presence...at least not in any textbook that I have read. Polynesians were the other option. They can be a trick...they did a lot of close island-island trade rather than across the Ocean...but it was substantial and let them colonize the entire Pacific. Arabs traded all over the Indian/Arabian ocean.</p>
<p>About Judaism, there is no physical way it has anything to do with "spread religion."
The Jews never sought to convert enemy lands. They just slaughtered all the women and children lol.</p>
<p>^ Incas were more of marine traders than Polynesia? I dont think so. There were many trade routes across the INdian Ocean that served as an arena for Chinese, Arab, etc. and many southeast civilizations facilitated this trade..(polynesia - Majapahit Kingdom)</p>
<p>for the 20th century immigration one - people migrating increasingly because of persecution. One of the major themes Barron's mentions towards the end. Ties in with another question where it asked something about post-cold war world politics...answer was something along the lines of increased ethnic violence (all those new eastern Europe countries)</p>
<p>Yep I gave the same answer...I was undecided between harsh punishment for social rule and this one but the first looked too extreme for confucianism</p>
