"In 1739 arrived among us from Ireland the Reverend Mr. Whitefield, who had made himself remarkable there as [a traveling] preacher. He was at first permitted to preach in some of our churches; but the clergy, taking a dislike to him, soon refused him their pulpits, and he was obliged to preach in the fields. The multitudes of all [members of different religious groups] that attended his sermons were enormous, and it was a matter of speculation to me . . . to observe the extraordinary influence of his oratory on his hearers, and how much they admired and respected him. . . . It was wonderful to see the change soon made in the manners of our inhabitants. From being thoughtless or indifferent about religion, it seemed as if all the world were growing religious, so that one could not walk through the town in an evening without hearing psalms sung in different families of every street.
"And it being found inconvenient to assemble in the open air, subject to its [harsh conditions], the building of a house to meet in was no sooner proposed . . . and the work [of erecting the building] was carried on with such spirit as to be finished in a much shorter time than could have been expected. Both house and ground were vested in trustees, expressly for the use of any preacher of any religious persuasion who might desire to say something to the people at Philadelphia."
Benjamin Franklin, from his autobiography, describing events in 1739

Answer:
This "System" consisted of three mutually reinforcing parts: a tariff to protect and promote American industry; a national bank to foster commerce; and federal subsidies for roads, canals, and other "internal improvements" to develop profitable markets for agriculture. Henry Clay (1777-1852) was a statesman who represented Kentucky in both the U.S. His main objective was to avoid a civil war. In the long run, his economic and political vision of America was largely fulfilled. A 58-year-old colonel at the start of battle in 1914, Pétain earned acclaim for stopping the the Germans at the Battle of Verdun and assumed command of the French forces in 1917. He held a series of top military posts in subsequent years, becoming chief of state after Germany’s invasion in 1940. In his pursuit of a “National Revival,” Pétain collaborated with the Nazi regime and adopted repressive measures against Jews. Tried for his actions at the end of World War II, Pétain was sentenced to death before his sentence was commuted to life imprisonment.

The Mongol conquests resulted in all of the following developments EXCEPT
A. a revival of trade on the overland Silk Roads
B. transfers of scientific and technological knowledge
C. the initial diffusion of Buddhism and Christianity to East Asia
D. the spread of pathogens across Eurasia, including the bubonic plague
Answer:
C. the initial diffusion of Buddhism and Christianity to East Asia
Explanation:
Unlike many other empire in that era, The Mongols were extremely tolerant toward religion. They did not force the people that they conquered to follow a certain religion.
The initial diffusion of Buddhism and Christianity occurred because of difference in language.
Not many priests from western nations understand the language used in Asian countries to be able to spread the Christian teaching. Buddhism on the other hand was taught widely in their local language.
The Mongol conquests resulted in the following developments EXCEPT "the initial diffusion of Buddhism and Christianity to East Asia."
This is because the Mongol conquests occurred during the 13th and 14th centuries.
However, the initial diffusion of Buddhism and Christianity to East Asia occurred around the 7th century. This implies that the Mongol conquests came later.
Also, the Mongol conquests led to many things, some of which are the following:
a revival of trade on the overland Silk Roads;transfers of scientific and technological knowledge;the spread of pathogens across Eurasia, including the bubonic plague.Hence, in this case, the correct answer is option C. "the initial diffusion of Buddhism and Christianity to East Asia."
