Did blacks and whites attend the same schools in the 19TH century?
no they didnt because the white hated the blacks thank you Newyorkminute1 says that Blacks did indeed attend the same schools as white citizens, however I need to make a distinction between Black American that looked Black had to attend Negro colleges in the Eastern and Southern U.S., the Negroes that were "passing" and also those that were wealthy functioned in society as White Americans. There is a rather large book at the library entitled something like Black Aristocracy in the 17001's and 1800's in the U.S. People who were very light Negroes even went so far as to join the "Blue Vein society" in which you had to be light-skinned enough to see the blue veins in your wrist. Rather racial and snooty for me, but we are talking about rich people in early America. Hope this has enlightened you, also these schools are called Grambling, Hampton University (I think the oldest Negro College in the U.S.) Many more...just search for Black Colleges in the U.S.
Who are the worlds superpowers?
As of 2023, the world's superpowers are primarily considered to be the United States and China. The U.S. maintains a strong influence through its military capabilities, economic power, and cultural impact. China, with its rapid economic growth and expanding global reach, is increasingly seen as a rival superpower. Other nations, such as Russia and the European Union, also play significant roles on the global stage, but they are typically not classified as superpowers in the same vein as the U.S. and China.
Why did Britain end slavery?
Britain ended slavery because it was deemed to be a cruel and barbaric practice that could not be justified in a civilised society. In 1785 slavery had been abolished in the British Isles but was still legal in many British Colonies. By 1783, an anti-slavery movement to abolish the slave trade throughout the Empire was begun. In 1785, English poet William Cowper wrote: "We have no slaves at home - Then why abroad? Slaves cannot breathe in England; if their lungs receive our air, that moment they are free. They touch our country, and their shackles fall. That's noble, and bespeaks a nation proud. And jealous of the blessing. Spread it then, And let it circulate through every vein." Slavery was officially abolished in most of the British Empire on 1 August 1834
What are the challenges to growing civil society and democratic practices in the Middle east?
First of all, there are democratic countries in the Middle East that have flourishing civil society, specifically Israel and Cyprus. However, the majority of Middle Eastern countries do have these issues, so it is worth discussing them. There are a number of societal requisites that make democracy viable and many countries, including most Middle Eastern countries, lack these particular societal requisites.Now, it must be noted that this is a question of current culture; it is not a racial claim. If Middle Easterners are taught how to function in such a way that liberal norms prevailed, then democracy could work in Middle Eastern countries just as democracy works perfectly well in South Korea, Japan, and Taiwan, all of which are Non-European countries.1) Nationalism over Tribalism: There has to be a sense in the country that every group in the country is better off with everyone else in the country succeeding than failing. The benefits that accrue to one group of people should not be at the expense of all other populations in a debilitating way. Middle Easterners tend to advocate for their particular ethnic, tribal, or religious grouping as opposed for the benefit of all people under the same flag.2) Cross-Ethnic Civil Society: There has to be civil society organizations such as clubs, artist networks, political rights groups, and other similar organizations. But they must be united by cultural, philosophical, or humanitarian underpinnings as opposed to being a mechanism to foster tribalism. Middle Easterners tend to only have civil society organizations that promote the divisions in their society such as political parties and religious groups.3) Literate Population and Freedom of Speech/Press: Most people are only exposed verbally to positions that they already agree with and caricatures of positions that they do not agree with. As a result, being able to read and write exposes a person to opinions that completely disagree with their own opinion. This allows people to have different political beliefs than their families. Additionally, freedom must be granted to both express and actualize views contrary to those of the ruling coalition or the majority ethnic and religious groups. In Middle Eastern societies, there is a high degree of illiteracy and minimal education, especially among women. Additionally, individuals who disagree with the dominant popular vein are often jailed or tortured for their "seditious" views of wanting to discuss why they don't want a theocracy.4) Laws Evenly Applied / Rule of Law: No person, by dint of their power or connections, can be treated in a better manner than others and no person, on account of their differing religion, ethnicity, or tribe, should be treated worse. All people must have the expectation that a wrongdoer will be punished regardless of whether he is a male or a female or Muslim or a Non-Muslim and that the police will actively jail individuals intending to perform recriminations. In the Middle East, connected people and male Muslims tend to have a superior position and are given a degree of free reign to bully other minorities into compliance.5) Virtue of Compromise: This is probably most important. The goal of the political process must not be for one party to get everything it wants, but for every party to get enough of what it wants to be satisfied and to accept that as a valid resolution. Compromising and accepting less than what you wanted initially, is virtually non-existent in Middle Eastern circles.
Is the yin yang Japanese?
No, the "yin yang" is Chinese in Japan it is called "in yo" " The situation is not nearly as simple as it may sound. It's convoluted in the extreme, but I shall do my best insofar as my knowledge. First and foremost, a minor pet peeve of mine; "dragons" and 'long'(Chinese) or 'ryu' (Japan), are not a huge conglomerative lump, regardless of popular regard. Though they sometimes are used to represent some similar Elemental forces (and even this comparison differs widely upon closer examination), they are not the same creature unless you want to say that they are both mythological beings--and one would not attempt I would hope to confuse a Wyvern with a Satyr, or tell one that they are the same thing, if you catch my meaning. 'Western' dragons are by and large potrayed as at least appearing to be almost wholly reptilian, very much in the way that most people have become familiar with them through common fantasy fiction. 'long/ryu' have much more varied appearances and qualities--they can be avian, picine, mammalian, and indeterminate variants between the three. The "Eastern" part of the world that actually claims. most commonly, descent from "long" is actually several of the regional rulers (or Emperors) of ancient China (From which the 'Long' of the Seas are mythologically derived, amongst other things.) As I understand it, Vietnamese mythology also makes a large claim to descent from dragons, but I am much less familiar with that mythos than that of China or Japan. The descent of the Japanese imperial family from 'long'-like beings is convoluted but there is some evidence to support it, at least in an artistic and syncretic sense. The prototypical creator and creatrix of the Ni Hon Go (Rising Sun Land) are Izanami (F) and Izanagi (M). As many of the more 'modern' Japanese beliefs and images are heavily influenced by or derived from Chinese mythology (Shinto basically being a huge multileveled syncretization between Old Religious Taoism and the Aboriginal Ancestor-Worship practices of the original inhabitants of the Island chain, the Ainu--told you it got complicated), many of the older images of Izanami and Izanagi syncretize them with the ancient Chinese images of the progenitors of the universe- Pan Ku (M) and Nu Wa (F)--both of whom were originally portrayed as "Naga"-like beings--that is, serpentine and/or draconian from the waist down. The concept and imagery of the "Naga" comes from the Hindu-Vedic traditions, which has spawned much of the Taoist pantheon and imagery. (Kuan Yin is in fact a female 'aspect' or derivation of the Hindu diety Avalokitesvara [1]--in Japan, she's Kannon, and it pretty much continues in that vein on many fronts.) In the Vedic traditon, there is little to no distinction made between "Naga" and "Dragon/Long", and the words are frequently used interchangeably. In fact, many scholars have postulated that the "Dragon Kings Of The Sea" of China are actually descended from the Vedic mythology of the Naga Kings, and there's a large amount of evidence to support that. (That chunk of mythos, as well as much of that which now supports the belief structure of Feng Shui, appears to have first started appearing in Japan around the Jomon period, but it may well have been earlier, it's hard to say.) What does this all have to do with Amaterasu and Co.? Well, if one postulates that Izanami and Izanagi are derivations of Pan Ku and Nu Wa (which seems likely as much of Japanese mythology is derived similarly) then Izanami and Izanagi would indeed be considered to be of 'draconian' descent, and hence so would their children, among them Amaterasu (From which the Imperial line claims their descent) and Susano (who interestingly enough has many 'draconian' and 'serpentine' associations himself.) The fact that other associations began to be made with Amaterasu later on (most commonly the Phoenix presently due to the fire association, and interestingly enough also derivative of Chinese mythology in which 'dragon' and 'phoenix' represent both opposing and sychronous forces--'yin' and 'yang' if you will, or 'in' and 'yo' in Japanese) would be a fairly recent (at least in terms of mythology and legends) development, and not wholly representative of the original symbology. Additionally, though the Japanese people as a whole may not claim 'descent' from dragons, many of the original 'uji' (clans) of Japan (notably pre "Kojiki" and "Nihongi", both of which are frequently-mangled aggregations of older myths and legends that were highly politicised by the Yamato clan to support their rule) considered many different 'supernatural beings' to be their ancestors, before Shinto as it is commonly percieved today, and multiple individual 'uji' ritual beliefs and practices were aggregated into what it is now. If you look back far enough this information can be found.

How is ore different than lode?
Ore is gold or silver as an example, but lode is a vein of an ore that gives a lot of the ore.
How big is a typical gold vein?
A typical gold vein can vary significantly in size, but they often range from a few centimeters to several meters in width and can extend for hundreds of meters in length. The thickness and volume of a vein depend on geological conditions and the specific mineralization processes involved. Some veins may be small and localized, while others can be extensive and rich in gold deposits. The quality and concentration of gold within the vein also play a crucial role in its economic viability.
