Write a description about the winds of change in Australia. |
| Answer» <html><body><p></p>Solution :Several factors were responsible for the winds of change in Australia. An account of the factors responsible for winds of change are listed below: (i) The Europeans were very hostile towards the natives of Australia. Since a <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/long-537592" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about LONG">LONG</a>-time, they (Europeans) made no sincere efforts to improve their conditions. In their literature, the Europeans portrayed themselves superior as compared to the natives. In 1968, W.E.H. Scanner published a book entitled "The Great Australian Silence" that encouraged the Europeans to trace and understand the historical roots of the natives of Australia. <br/>(ii) Henry Reynolds in his book, "Why Weren.t We Told" criticised the tradition of writing of Australian history. According to the Europeans, the history of Australia began with its discovery by Captain Cook. He believed that the study of native culture and civilization must be encouraged. His ideas inspired the Europeans to know about historical antecedents of the natives. <br/>(<a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/iii-497983" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about III">III</a>) The Europeans established separate department in universities to study the culture of the natives. To understand the local culture they also established museums and galleries of native <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/art-2548" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about ART">ART</a>. Undoubtedly, it was a commendable step. It encouraged the Australian government to adopt the policy of multiculturalism. It aimed at providing equal respect for the culture of natives. <br/>(iv) A great Australian writer, Judith Wright spearheaded a powerful movement for the rights of the natives. She was of the opinion that the policy of keeping the whites and the natives separate may pose a great threat to the coming generation. She <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/wrote-2337746" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about WROTE">WROTE</a> many impressive poems which had intense effects on the hearts of people. <br/>(v) The natives realised that the Europeans had made no agreement with them. It was <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/due-433472" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about DUE">DUE</a> to this fact that the Australian government always used to call the land, Terra Nullius, which means that land belongs to none. This verdict recognised their claims of natives over the land prior to 1770. <br/>(vi) There was also a long and agonising history of children of mixed blood that was being forcibly captured and separated from their native relatives. These children were denied all sorts of rights.</body></html> | |

Fukuzawa Yukichi (1835-1901) Born in an impoverished samurai family, he studied in Nagasaki and Osaka learning Dutch and Western sciences and, later, English. In 1860, he went as a translator for the first Japanese embassy to the USA. This provided material for a book on the West, written not in the classical but in the spoken style that became extremely popular. He established a school that is today the Keio University. He was one of the core members of the Meirokusha, a society to promote Western learning. In The Encouragement to Learning (Gakumon no susume, 1872-76) he was very critical of Japanese knowledge: 'All that Japan has to be proud of is its scenery'. He advocated not just modern factories and institutions but the cultural essence of the West-the spirit of civilisation. With this spirit it would be possible to build a new citizen. His principle was: 'Heaven did not create men above men, nor set men below men.' What do you know about Fukuzawa Yukichi? |

How was the infrastructure during the Roman empire? |
| Answer» <html><body><p></p>Solution :The infrastructure system in ancient Rome was complex. A system of thirteen Roman aqueducts provided the inhabitants of Rome with water of varying quality, the best being reserved for potable supplies. Watcr was <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/used-2318798" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about USED">USED</a> in public baths and in latrines. Inferior types of latrine systems have been found in many places, such as house steads, a Roman fort on Hadrian.s Wall in Pompeii, Herculaneum, and elsewhere that flushed waste away with a stream of water. Romans used sea sponges on a stick and dipped in vinegar after defecation. The Romans had a complex system of <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/sewers-1204290" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about SEWERS">SEWERS</a> covered by stones. They recycled public bath waste water by using it as part of the flow that flushed the latrines. Terracotta piping was used in the plumbing that <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/carried-7257188" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about CARRIED">CARRIED</a> waste water from <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/homes-1028705" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about HOMES">HOMES</a>. The Romans were the first to seal pipes in concrete to resist the high water pressures developed in siphons and elsewhere. Beginning around 5th century BC, city officials called aediles <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/supervised-7298231" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about SUPERVISED">SUPERVISED</a> the sanitary systems. They were responsible for the efficiency of the drainage and sewage systems, the cleansing and paving of the streets, prevention of foul smells, and general oversight of brothels, taverns, baths, and other water supplies.Roman rubbish was often left to collect in alleys between buildings in the poor districts of the city. It sometimes became so thick that stepping stones were needed. <br/> The empire of Rome, especially the city itself, had a huge demand for water. The average Roman consumed over 200 gallons of water per day. Wealthy households had water supplied to their settlements unlike many poor who could not afford this. Even these people enjoyed the luxuries of Rome.s public baths, fountains, and public toilets equipped with sinks. <br/>River Tiber was the city.s main water source before any aqueducts were constructed. As the population of Rome increased, however, the Romans taste for water became too much for the river to supply. The paved roads were all constructed so they would require minimal amount of repair and provide a very smooth surface for travelling.</body></html> | |

Discuss the major drawbacks of feudalism which prevailed in medieval Europe. |
| Answer» <html><body><p></p>Solution :The major drawbacks of feudalism which prevailed in medieval Europe were as follows: <br/> (i) It divided the country into small fiefs held by the feudal lords. They were selfish. They cared more for themselves and ignored the interests of the country as a whole. Hence, feudalism gave a blow to national unity. <br/> (ii) The central government became very weak. The feudal lords became more powerful and supreme. The vassals ignored the order of the king.
