Definition of Shi'a Islam
Shi'a Islam
Shi'a Islam or Shi`ism (from the Arabic word شيعة, Persian: شیعه) is the second largest school within Islam. Shi'a Muslims adhere to the teachings of the Islamic prophet Muhammad and his Ahlul Bayt (family). Shi'as believe that the Imam – their preferred title for the political and religious leader of the Muslim community must belong to the direct lineage of Muhammad through his daughter Fatima and her husband (and Muhammad's cousin), Ali ibn Abi Talib (Imam Ali, the fourth caliph). The Imam is regarded as sinless and infallible and appoints his successor (except within the Zaydi sub-group, in which he emerges). The Shi'as reject the first three caliphs in Sunni Islam as usurpers of Ali's Imamate. The theme of lineage and infallibility of the Imam developed within Shi'a Islam, as well as the idea of a hidden Imam who will bring God's judgment in the Last Days. There are several sub-divisions. Some Shi’a, such as the Aga Khan Ismailis recognize a living Imam. For the majority group, the Imam is now "hidden" but will return as the Mahdi. Relations between 'Shi'a and Sunni Muslims have been strained although efforts at reconciliation have also been made. The differences between the two schools can be maximized or minimized, depending on the agenda of the commentator. Shi'a have often lived as minorities and as such have experienced persecution. Since the beginning of the Safavid Dynasty it has been the State religion in Iran, where this status has often led to confusion between religion and the pursuit of Iranian national goals, which have sometimes involved a desire to restore Persia's ancient power and prestige in the region. EtymologyThe term Shi'a comes from the Arabic word شيعة Shi'a. The singular/adjective form of this name is Arabic shi`i شيعي. "Shi'a" is the short form of the historic phrase shi`at `Ali شيعة علي, meaning "the advocates of Ali." Sunni and Shi'a sources trace the term to Muhammad himself. The phrase Shi'a of Ali was historically a title given by Muhammad and later by his descendants in praise of Ali's followers and that of the Ahlul Bayt (house of the Prophet’s family). Rippin (1991) refers to Shi'a as an "alternative vision of Islamic identity" (Rippin 1991, 103-116).Can Someone plz help me? :)

Why did Germany get involved in World War I? What were their actions and why?
Explanation:
The Paris Peace Treaties (Versailles, Trianon and St-Germain) blamed Germany and Austria-Hungary equally for starting the war. The reason hardly anybody knows this fact is presumably because Austria and Hungary didn’t make a fuss about it. For Germany, though, the War Guilt Clause became the focus for all their frustrated anger and hurt pride at losing the war; something Hitler and the Nazis skillfully exploited in their propaganda.As for who bears the blame:Austria-Hungary, for occupying Bosnia against the will of its inhabitants.A group of Bosnian teenagers, for deciding to form a resistance organisation to fight against Austrian rule using violence.A group of Serbian nationalist conspirators, for deciding to back those Bosnian resistance fighters with weapons.Austria-Hungary, for deciding to use the assassination of Franz Ferdinand as an excuse to attack Serbia even before the police investigation had found any proof of Serbian involvement. (And they never did prove the involvement of the Serbian government.)Germany, for promising absolute and unlimited support to Austria-Hungary for their planned invasion. This is crucial: Austria-Hungary would not have dared to take harsh action against Serbia by themselves, for fear of Russian intervention.Germany, for urging Austria-Hungary to ignore diplomacy and launch an immediate military invasion of Serbia.Russia and Serbia, for refusing to surrender to these threats, but instead putting their armies on alert while proposing a diplomatic solution with international arbitration.Germany, for sabotaging the British attempt to arrange a conference to mediate the crisis.France, for telling Germany that it would honour its alliance with Russia if Germany attacked Russia.Britain, for telling Germany that it would honour its alliance with Belgium if Germany attacked Belgium. (Some historians have advanced the argument that the war was Britain’s fault because this warning wasn’t explicit enough.)Austria-Hungary, for refusing to accept the Serbian concessions given in reply to their ultimatum.Austria-Hungary, for declaring war on Serbia.Germany, for declaring war on Russia.Germany, for declaring war on France.Germany, for invading Luxembourg.Germany, for invading Belgium.Britain, for honouring its treaty with Belgium by declaring war on Germany.In other words: you can, at most, blame the other countries involved for refusing to back down when they were threatened, and making it clear that they were prepared to fight if diplomacy failed. But it was Germany and Austria-Hungary who were making the threats and ramping up the tension at each stage of the crisis, and them who shot first.#BrainliestMark me as brainliest.True or False: King Tut's tomb is located in Luxor.

Mesopotamian life?
The floods in Mesopotamia improved the soil in the area, allowing for more widespread agriculture. Most of the soil in the region was salty and sandy and not suitable for farming.

What theory was used to justify claims of racial superiority?
Answer:
social darwinism has been used to justify imperialism ,racism , eugenics and social inequality at various times over the past century and a half
Answer: The theory that was used to justify claims of racial superiority was social Darwinism.
Social Darwinism was a group of ideologies that arose in the late 1800s in which Charles Darwin´s theory of evolution by natural selection, was used to justify certain social views.
According to the theory, the weak were diminished while the strong grew in power over the weak.
One of the persons who adopted social Darwinism was Adolf Hitler, who considered that the German master race had grown weak due to the influence of non-Aryans, so he targeted certain groups of people that he considered biologically inferior for extermination such as jews, homosexuals, etc.
