The official name of Ghana was the Gold Coast. The Gold Coasters made the decision just before independence to call the new nation after the ancient Ghanaian empire, under the leadership of Dr. Kwame Nkrumah. One of the three prehistoric empires in West Africa was the ancient Ghana empire. The other two are Songhai and Mali. The historic region of the Ghana empire included what is now Southern Mauritania and Mali. Many miles to the north-west of the current location of Ghana. It is believed that some ethnic groups moved south after the fall of the three ancient empires, and some of them did make it as far south as present-day Ghana.
How Ghana empire evolved?From roughly 300 to 1100, the Ghana Empire, a West African dynasty had its center in what is now the southeast of Mauritania and western Mali. The Soninke people established the Empire, which had its capital in Koumbi Saleh.
At the time the empire was founded, the area had long-standing complex communities, some of which were based on trans-Saharan trade in salt and gold. The western Sahara's camel introduction in the third century AD was a significant driver for the revolutionary societal changes that led to the establishment of the empire. The camel transformed the earlier, more erratic trading routes into a trade by the time the Muslims conquered North Africa in the seventh century.

In a federal system of government (also known as a federation), the local and state governments share power with the central government, though the central government has final authority. Explain how this is different from a confederation.
Answer:
copy this its not from any site just my mind! btw i got an 10/10 on it!
Explanation:
Federation has unity as a whole but local governments take care of local things and central government takes care of national things. This compared to confederation its way different, as in confederation its power is focused on local levels of government. Also, this prevents the abuse of power in a large central government. Another way these are different is that Federation has citizens take part in thing as like voting or jury duty. Unlike Federation confederation has members that make laws and decisions, but federation has citizens part taking is some things. In summary federation has everybody participating, and confederation has only members that make decisions.

8. How did the Protestant Reformation effect the common people?
9. Explain why some kings and nobles were willing to support the Protestant Reformation.
10. Do you think Martin Luther should be considered a hero? Why or why not? What lessons can you learn from his actions?
Answers:
1. Luther believes that salvation comes through faith alone. The Catholic church believed that a mix of faith and good works leads to salvation.
2. The 95 theses were written by Martin Luther describing everything that was wrong with the catholic church. Luther nailed the 95 theses to the Wittenburg Church.
3. The printing press allowed for a rapid spread of ideas to a whole new group of people. This caused Luther's ideas to be widely accepted, eventually leading to the Protestant Revolution.
4. Panicked, quick, and shifting. The Catholic church panicked because these ideas spread by Luther had the potential for people to view Catholicism differently. They moved very quickly and attacked with a reformation of their own, which shifted their current practices to others. For example, the Catholic reformation lead to the end of the sale of indulgences, worship services being in vernacular instead of Latin, and improved training and education for priests.
5. The Catholic Church punished Luther by excommunicating him. He was declared a heretic and an outlaw by the Holy Roman Emperor Charles V. Being excommunicated means that he was cut off from family, friends, and work.
6. People decided to support Luther because they were tired of the Catholic Church's abuses but were scared to bring it to light. When Luther posted the 95 theses, people followed in hopes of creating a religion that included everyone, not just the rich who could afford to pay for indulgences and make it to heaven.
7. I would not, the Catholic Church in this era was incredibly powerful and I wouldn't be to leave my family and friends behind to prove a point.
8. The protestant reformation allowed for church services to be in vernacular language instead of Latin, which most common people wouldn't be able to understand. The end of the sale of indulgences allowed the common people to have faith that they would be able to be saved.
9. People of high ranks such as princes, kings, and nobles, supported Luther despite him being an outlaw because they thought they could take advantage of his ideas by, not having to pay extra money to the Church.
10. Martin Luther should be considered a hero because he was able to stand up to an incredibly powerful institution because he saw that there were multiple flaws in the system. A lesson I can learn is to stand up to injustice when we see it.

3 Pros of banned books. Please provide evidence to support each pro.
(will mark brainliest)
Answer:
Pro 1
Parents have the right to decide what material their children are exposed to and when.
Having books with adult topics available in libraries limits parents’ ability to choose when their children are mature enough to read specific material. [4] If books with inappropriate material are available in libraries, children or teens can be exposed to books their parents wouldn’t approve of before the parents even find out what their children are reading. [16] “[O]pting your child out of reading [a certain] book doesn’t protect him or her. They are still surrounded by the other students who are going to be saturated with this book,” said writer Macey France. [17]
Pro 2
Children should not be exposed to sex, violence, drug use, or other inappropriate topics in school or public libraries.
Books in the young adult genre often contain adult themes that young people aren’t ready to experience. [18] Of the top ten most challenged books in 2019, eight had LGBTQ+ content, and three were sexually explicit. [25] According to Jenni White, a former public school science teacher, “Numerous studies on the use of graphic material by students indicate negative psychological effects,” including having “more casual sex partners and [beginning] having sex at younger ages.” [19] The American Academy of Pediatrics has found that exposure to violence in media, including in books, can impact kids by making them act aggressively and desensitizing them to violence. [17] Kim Heinecke, a mother of four, wrote to her local Superintendent of Public Schools that “It is not a matter of ‘sheltering’ kids. It is a matter of guiding them toward what is best. We are the adults. It is our job to protect them – no matter how unpopular that may seem.” [19]
Pro 3
Keeping books with inappropriate content out of libraries protects kids, but doesn't stop people from reading those books or prevent authors from writing them.
Peter Sprigg of the Family Research Council noted that removing certain books from libraries is about showing discretion and respecting a community’s values, and doesn’t prevent people from getting those books elsewhere: “It’s an exaggeration to refer to this as book banning. There is nothing preventing books from being written or sold, nothing to prevent parents from buying it or children from reading it.” [20] What some call “book banning,” many see as making responsible choices about what books are available in public and school libraries. “Is it censorship that you’re unable to go to your local taxpayer-funded branch and check out a copy of the ‘Protocols of the Elders of Zion’? For better or for worse, these books are still widely available. Your local community has simply decided that finite public resources are not going to be spent disseminating them,” Weekly Standard writer and school board member Mark Hemingway stated.

a. They both have the same number of guppies with large spots.
b. The population in Brazil has more guppies with large spots.
c. The population in Venezuela has more guppies with large spots.
d. These bar graphs do not show which population has more guppies with large spots.
Answer:
The answer is C.
Explanation:
The population in Venezuela has more guppies with large spots.
After analyzing the graphs, the population in Venezuela has more guppies with large spots. Thus, option 'C' is the correct option.
Why is the fish called a guppy?Small tropical fish called guppies (Poecilia reticulata) are indigenous to the coastal streams of northeast South America. They received their name from Robert John Lechmere Guppy, who offered them for sale in aquariums. Wild guppies often consume a range of foods, such as aquatic bug larvae and benthic algae.
In the study of ecology, evolution, and behavior, guppy models are frequently utilized. The guppy, commonly known as a million fish or rainbow fish, is one of the most common freshwater aquarium fish species and one of the most extensively distributed tropical fish in the world. It belongs to the Poeciliidae family and bears live young, much like the majority of its relatives in the United States.
