    Many other European countries centuries later (i.e. Spain) would mirror the same evangelism to spread their religion and ideology to other cultures. Individuals or sectors who would resist would often times be martyred or subjected to slavery, in the America’s at least. The difference between the evangelism in the Americas in the 1500’s and the evangelism in Ancient Africa is that many people in Roman Egypt and other colonized Roman colonies, who were oppressed, sought out to find faith through Christianity and were killed for it. They saw hope, and promise through this Christianity. But the Romans saw the Christian church as a threat to their empire (Shillington, 74.)

    There are multiple examples of major changes in Africa that I could talk about for this exam. But being that I only need a few pages, I will focus on, for this exam, rise and end of the Malinke Empire and Songhay, the religious influences throughout Ethiopia, trading towns in the east of Africa, and most of the Iron Age societies. The examples of change will display how towns and kingdoms would come and go, the people settling there, or development of new productions and technology.

    The socioeconomic condition of African Americans underwent many superficial transformations from 1910 to 1930. Even though phenomena such as the Great Migration and the Harlem Renaissance cannot be discredited; the actual experience of the majority of African Americans remained stagnant.

    After the Roman empire fell and Rome split into the Eastern and Western empires, each empire developed differently. The differences can be clearly seen when analyzing the churches which each empire produced. In the year 1054, the Christian church branched out in the Eastern and Western empires to Eastern Orthodox and Roman Catholicism, respectively.
