spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientist, the hopes of its
children". -President Dwight D. Eisenhower

Describe in a 150-word paragraph the stages civilizations go through.
Answer:
All civilizations pass through five stages: Genesis, Growth, Troubles, Universal State, and Collapse.
Explanation:
According to Arnold J. Toynbee, the five stages of a civilization can be summarized by the following:
Genesis - is the beginning of civilization. This stage could be regarded as the "natural" state of humanity. Authority and organization are at a minimal. It is primarily under the influence of neophobes.
Growth - This stage marks the point where humans decide to over-power nature and utilize it however they can to acquire power. They erect fences and divide the Earth up by many straight lines.
Universal state - this stage happens when a civilization grows so fast and easily that becomes an empire.
Time of troubles - because of the growth stage, civilizations often face periods of riots, crisis, social conflicts, and loss of authority.
Collapse - The final stage of the process. The inevitable outcome of the very first neophile uprising for growth. It leads to a second revolution to go back in on itself. It wants not to want creation but destruction.

is sweetened by contentment and happiness; there is no failure in the potato
crop, and you can grow Indian corn, and every crop you wish. ... I shudder
when I think that starvation prevails to such an extent in poor Ireland.

Which best describes a comparison and contrast of Buddhism and Hinduism? a. Both believe you are born into a caste and followed their caste, but hinduism doesnt allow you to ever change your caste. b. both believe in the idea of trying to reach enlightenment, but hinduism isnt tid to the noble eight fold path. c. both believe in the idea of karma, but buddhism believes that doing bad means bad won't happen d. both believe in reincarnation, but hinduism believes that you always will be born back into an animal.
Answer:
c. both believe in the idea of karma, but buddhism believes that doing bad means bad won't happen
Explanation:
Karma is the universal principle of cause and effect which both Hindus and Buddhists believe govern all levels of consciousness. They both believe that the effect of Karma could take place in this life or the next (reincarnation)
However, Buddhists believe that Karma is not synonymous with fate or destiny because even if you do something bad, it does not mean that something bad or negative will occur to you as a way of balancing things which is quite different from the Hinduistic belief of Karma that believes that every action you take, good or bad will find a way of coming back to you.

Indeed, before the first civilizations, human communities survived by hunting animals and gathering resources in one location and then moving to another depending on availability, which is known as nomadic life. This changed during the Neolithic as human groups developed agriculture and could settle in one place leading a sedentary life. This important advancement led to the creation of settlements, which later grew to villages, towns, cities, etc. According to this, societies were first composed of nomadic clans but this later became civilizations as permanent settlements were created (option A.)
