b. Jewish people are not allowed to convert to other religions.
c. Judaism is first and foremost a religion and not a race of people.
d. Jewish people are a dominant race and are a threat to world dominance.

a. Jewish people are to be considered a race of people and not just a religious group.

Explanation:

The blood purity statute or law represents a forma division between two or more groups of people on the basis of race.

With the statute, the King of Spain effectively promoted the idea the Jewish people are not only a religion, or an ethnicity, but also a race, because he was discriminating Jewish people on a biological basis.

According to him, it did not matter if a Jewish person was a catholic, born in Spain, spoke spanish, and was competent and knowledgeable about church matters. The fact that said person had Jewish blood disqualified him from holding office in the Catholic Church.

civilizations developed around rivers because their waters provided places to hunt and fish. also, as the rivers flooded, the lands around them became fertile. this allowed them to support farming. this is especially true of the nile river, which flooded the same time each year.

the first historical instance of china engaging in internationalism was during the han dynasty.[1] at the start of the han dynasty, the huns in the north were attacking the frontiers of han and trying to obtain riches. emperor wu of han wanted to gain an alliance with a country called dayuezhi so the two countries could join together and fight against the huns.[2] to obtain this alliance, emperor wu sent zhang qian to the west to establish economic and cultural connections.[2] history records that during the han dynasty there were four primary avenues of contact between china and europe. they included the northern land route, the central land route, the southern sea route, and the far southern sea route.[1] the most famous of these routes is the central land route, or the classical silk road, comprising a network of roads stretching from northwest china to the ports of syria and the black sea, which passed through the oasis of the turkestans and northern persia.[1] the silk road was significant for chinese emperors because it provided dominance over central asia by developing resources and provided new markets for the export of china's most valuable resources.[1]
