<p>no, that was a CB practice test question</p>
<p>dang...you're right...i need a little elaboration on that one</p>
<p>The Gandhi one, the spinning wheel was a symbol of self-sufficiency...trust me I studied history in India lol. Also, for the German unification one, im pretty sure that almost 10 years after the unification, when Wilhelm II came to rule (1888), he started an arm race against the rest of Europe. </p>
<p>By the way, does anyone regret overthinking a few of these problems? I put David Livingstone for the Scramble for Africa cause I knew Berlin Conference started in 1884 and the scramble in 1881, and I knew Livingstone did much exploration and opened Africa for Europe, but I guess I was wrong =[...or did any one else put Livingstone too and wanna make me feel btr ^^</p>
<p>Self sufficiency was not an answer for the India question. Trust me, I narrowed it down pretty quickly to "peaceful philosophy" and "reminder of reincarnation."</p>
<p>Berlin Conference definitely set off the scramble for Africa.</p>
<h1>48 was not on the test.</h1>
<p>iron WAS used for weapons, but it spread southward from W Africa.. </p>
<p>Inhabitants at Termit, in eastern Niger became the first iron smelting people in West Africa and among the first in the world around 1500 BC.[26] Iron and copper working then continued to spread southward through the continent, reaching the Cape around AD 200.[1] The widespread use of iron revolutionized the Bantu-speaking farming communities who adopted it, driving out and absorbing the rock tool using hunter-gatherer societies they encountered as they expanded to farm wider areas of savannah. The technologically superior Bantu-speakers spread across southern Africa and became wealthy and powerful, producing iron for tools and weapons in large, industrial quantities.[1]

<p>could you guys elaborate on the meiji question? i totally don't remember it.... what were the answer choices?</p>
<p>also, are you sure that 64 is eastern orthodox? i thought it is islam... was the conversion during a specific time period?</p>
<p>also, there was a map with a lot of trading ports in the indian ocean trade route in the 1500's and asked for what country dominated them. I put the netherlands?</p>
<p>Jamesford- I said self-sufficiency as a reference term. I remember there was something about keeping the Indian industry or something like that in the options. </p>
<p>Reich: It was Eastern Orthodox. The time slot they gave was before 10th century if im not mistaken...</p>
<p>The trading ports were of Portugal =[...Goa and Malacca and the East African Coast was the key.</p>

<p>here's a list that I have been compiling seperately
Sorry the numbers dont conincide with the ongoing list, but I have some more questions....</p>
<p>I put a ■ next to questions that need confirming. Can anyone recall the question for 36? Also, can anyone confirm the question and answer choices for 73? </p>
<p>As for some of the ongoing disputes...
and for 10, I am POSITIVE that it was dutch rose to power, portugal's power wayned (not the otherway around)
for 26, the question did not ask about a war (there was only one war between mexico and US, it was about texas) but a strain, and in the 1930s tons of immigrant farmers crossed the border because of the depression</p>
<p>Okay I checked out the unification of Germany question and the answer is
B. The creation of a European customs union
because :The European Customs Union was formed in 1968 with the target of creating a single market free from internal customs duties.</p>
<p>it's not E. the french 3rd Republic, because that was created during the Franco-Prussian war (1870-1871) so the unification played a part</p>
<p>it's not A. an arms race because :
Both Prussia's treatment of France and its unification and industrialization of Germany would upset the balance of power and trigger a system of interlocking alliances that kept Europe on a knife-edge of readiness for a war that nearly everyone expected to break out. That war, World War I, would be the beginning of the end of European supremacy.</p>
<p>wait isn't 62 from a racial point of view???</p>
<p>and does anyone kno for sure what question 17?? because i put the parition of africa</p>
<p>The irrigation of arid soil was about farming practices around the Nile, Tigris, and Euphrates Rivers i'm pretty sure...</p>
<p>2 more questions...</p>
<p>What was a major factor in Christianity spreading - Constantine's conversion</p>
<p>What happened to Rome due to Punic Wars - Gained territory in North Africa and Spain</p>
<p>62 is actually during 1500-1800 which is a period of west african slave trade domination. gj volatile the list looks a lot better than mine lol</p>
<p>what was Dutch spice trade map</p>
<p>For 26, In 1938, the president of Mexico announced that all foreign companies were to sell oil industries to Mexico. Doesn't that give us the "Oil seizure" for the answe?</p>
<p>w8 then how does that make oil seizure the answer? and for dole whip- i got that for the christianity spreading thing, but what r the other answer choices for the punic wars one??? i might have put ur answer but i'm not sure</p>
<p>I agree with dolewhip and the only possible choice that made sense was "Rome was too exhausted....." which is wrong</p>
<p>Yeah. The outcome of the Punic Wars was that Rome captured Carthage (which is in North Africa) and gained access to more territories. Kaplan SAT agrees, it talks about how Rome became the master of the Mediterranean after the wars by gaining new territory such as Anatolia, North Africa, and Spain.</p>
<p>I didn't look at the other answers really because I knew this one was right.</p>
<p>Well were their any oher questions? We still need around 30 more.</p>
