Drag and drop the events to arrange them from the event that occurred first to the event that occurred last.
A. Kush conquers Egypt
B. Kush and Egypt continue to develop independently
C. Egypt conquers Kush
D. Assyrians conquer Kush and Egypt
To arrange the events in the correct chronological order, we need to consider the historical timeline. Here is the step-by-step process to determine the order:
1. First, we know that there are four events: Kush conquers Egypt, Kush and Egypt continue to develop independently, Egypt conquers Kush, and Assyrians conquer Kush and Egypt.
2. Start by comparing the conquest of Kush and Egypt by different entities. Since it is historically accurate that the Assyrians conquered both Kush and Egypt, we can conclude that their conquest must have happened last. Hence, D (Assyrians conquer Kush and Egypt) should be the event that occurred last.
3. Next, we need to determine whether Kush conquered Egypt or Egypt conquered Kush. To solve this, we can consider the historical timeline. Kush was a kingdom located in what is now modern-day Sudan, while Egypt was its neighbor to the north. Based on historical records, it is known that Kush conquered Egypt during the 8th century BCE. Therefore, A (Kush conquers Egypt) should be the event that occurred first.
4. By process of elimination, B (Kush and Egypt continue to develop independently) and C (Egypt conquers Kush) are the remaining events. To determine the order between these two, we can refer back to the previous information. If Kush conquered Egypt first, it implies that there was a period when Kush and Egypt developed independently. Hence, B (Kush and Egypt continue to develop independently) must come after A (Kush conquers Egypt) and before C (Egypt conquers Kush).
Therefore, the correct chronological order of the events is as follows:
A. Kush conquers Egypt
B. Kush and Egypt continue to develop independently
C. Egypt conquers Kush
D. Assyrians conquer Kush and Egypt
