The Tribe has always been an important concept in Arabian and Islamic history, creating divisions among its dwellers and followers. How has this caused problems in the history of Islam?
There has always been Arabian and Islamic tribes. Some have been enemies, and some have allies. The enemy have always had a fued with each other. Both the enemies keep on fighting, because its their nature. They do not always know but they keep on fighting. The nomadic tribes moved around to find food and water for their herds of animals. As the nomadic tribes move around, they might end up near their enemies. This could cause another fight because the nomadic tribes are on their enemies properity. It would be better if they would work together and share the resources, but instead they fight.

8. India Influence
How has religious history of India influenced India's tradition of non-violence?
The religious history of India has influenced India's tradition of non-violence by the beliefs of other religions. For example, Hinduism basically focused on peace throughout each other in the world. They were non-violent people, same with Buddhism. The fact that both of theses religions have focused on peace and non-violence has influenced India's traditions. Another example would be the story of Arjuna in the Bhagavad Gita. He was a warrior but did not want to fight in the war beacause he was up against his own relatives. Lord Krishna told Arjuna that he would only kill the body, not the soul;the soul lives on forever. This is how they looked at being peaceful. Doing this so, India has changed their tradition of non-violence.

7. Migration
Can migrations have a positive impact on the people and or land receiving immigrations?
Migrations can have a positive effect on people and the land itself. Some positive things that have an impact on people would be bringing new cultures together, new technology, and maybe better sources from the land. A positive effect on the land would be people bringing different types of food, and resources and also different ways in getting food. With new lands, people can adapt to those types of weather in the land. People, who migrate from land to land, end up having more sources and are able to survive. For instance, when they are in an environment that they've never been to, they are learning on how to deal with the weather and how to get food. Also when they migrate to new lands, they meet new people and gain their knowledge; they exchange technology and knowledge. People who migrate both learn new things, and become advanced. When people have migrated a lot, they understand how to protect themselves and how to survive. It's part of life. The land receives other types of food, and start growing them easily. Theses are all positives impacts on people and lands.
