Similarities & Differences between Islamic and Asian Empires

Similarities:
-Ruled by centralized monarchy
   -Caused by the early military rulers
-Stopped Technological innovations
   -This happened because this was their way of attempting to stop the destabilization that they thought was caused by change.


Differences:
-Asian
   -No more value for warrior class
   -No value for woman in Gov't
     

-Islamic
   -Warrior class held importance still
   -Value for woman
        -In nomadic societies, woman were respected, which probably influences this

Ottoman, Savafid, Mughal

Bentley and Ziegler probably grouped these empires together because of all the direct relations between them. They all had absolute monarchies (with military leaders), were all islamic, and their locations were somewhat close. Honestly though I think there could have been better grouping with these places, but perhaps there was not enough information to give these their own chapters, or maybe bentley and ziegler just got lazy.

Fabian Fucan's Attack on Christianity

Fabian Fucan's attack on Christianity focuses on his preference and promotion of Buddhism and Confucianism over Christianity. Fucan considers Christianity and Christians as a whole barbaric(cultural). According to Fucan, the Christians have attempted to take over other religions and countries in previous times(historical), and that historically the Christians will always attempt to do so(political) . In addition, Fucan criticizes Christians as barbaric martyrs.
