Explanation:

Ibn Rushd is considered as one of the greatest Islamic thinkers and historians. He was a man that loved philosophy, and he committed himself to translate the Greek philosophers into Arabic, especially Aristotle. According to him, the religion and the philosophy can work together despite their differences, but only if they are understood properly. Despite being criticized heavily by the religious authorities, Ibn Rushd stood his ground, and he managed to develop the philosophy in the Islamic world, creating a unique Islamic philosophy based on the Ancient Greek philosophy.

union blockade

explanation:

the union blockade in the american civil war was a naval strategy by the united states to prevent the confederacy from trading.

the blockade was proclaimed by president abraham lincoln in april 1861, and required the monitoring of 3,500 miles (5,600 km) of atlantic and gulf coastline, including 12 major ports, notably new orleans and mobile. those blockade runners fast enough to evade the union navy could only carry a small fraction of the supplies needed. they were operated largely by british citizens, making use of neutral ports such as havana, nassau and bermuda. the union commissioned around 500 ships, which destroyed or captured about 1,500 blockade runners over the course of the war.
