Reflection #4

Reading about the religion of those Muslims were very heart breaking.  It's sad to hear that women are beaten by their husband if they don't obey them.  Women are treated disrespectfully and are looked down at, while the men are praised on.  The Men could have up to four wives and it's looked as a good thing.  The women their are covered still from head to toe and are still made to veil themselves in the public. It's so sad to think that because of this religion they think it's OK to have inequality and treat the women like animals.  Women being abused no matter what religion you are is not OK, and I can't believe that seeing someones pain was permitted to continue on and on. Then as I read on to the next chapter the Mongols.  The Mongols and their Empire and how they came about. When Mongols  were raised they were taught to do a lot of things from a young age. They were taught to ride horses and shoot a bow and arrow.  This made  the Mongols very advanced to their enemies. Through this time the Mongols moved on and took over other civilizations.  While doing this they picked up different skills and languages and made them their own. They grew into a powerful Empire that eventually.
