Samuel Choi CHAPTER 15 OUTLINE Islamic and Hindu Kingdoms The Quest or Centralized Imperial Rule Harsha After the collapse of the Gupta dynasty, the idea of centralized rule did not completely disappear. King Harsha temporarily unified Northern India, and invaded the other kingdoms of northern India. By 612, he had subdued people who did not recognize his authority, and he started foreign relations with Tibet and China. Harsha was a generous ruler, giving free medical care and gifts to his subjects. He patronized scholars and himself wrote 3 plays. Collapse of Harsha?s Kingdom Harsha was unable to restore centralized rule, because local rulers had entrenched their authority too deply. His empire was held together by his attention and personality

OLIVIA ?MAYER ? ? ? ? 1 ?Olivia Mayer Professor Christopher Martinez Introduction to religions April 10th,2013 Modern Day Sati In today's modern day, society sati is still occurring. After researching, my findings make me think that this wide spread ritual is still occurring on a yearly basis, it is just sacred and kept secret. Aware this is a public ritual, but at the same time, if it is that would make it less likely to happen in public and be kept more a secret. Tradition of sati has been occurring in India since being outlawed in 1829. Women achieve merit bringing their families glory and the widow avoids disdain. Traditionally the women who were prevented or were not able to commit to sati were unable to live anything but a peasant's life.

The basic themes of the three great classical civilizations of China, India, and the Mediterranean involved expansion and integration. Throughout the classical world, these themes faltered between 200 and 500 C.E., signaling the end of that era. The response of major religions to political decline formed a leading direction in the next phase of world history. Meanwhile, developments outside the classical orbit gained new prominence.
