cordoba flourishes

Political:

The political side of the Golden Age was successful thanks to Abdl-Malik III. He created a standing army which consisted of army which consisted of many brave warriors. A standing army is an army that is ready for almost anything at any time. Abdl-rhaman III probably created a standing army because he thought that if he were to conquer many lands and regions around the area he should have a standing army that was ready to attack a region are defend their own region from any danger. If his standing army was strong, they probably did many things to help them get ready for war and they probably they worked very hard every day of their lives. Due to his excellent standing army, Cordoba was able to stay in its golden age for very long not being attacked by the surrounding regions.

Economical:

Cordoba had at least 100-200 shop that produced leather, carpet, crystal glass and a whole bunch of other things that were vital to the lives of other regions around them. Mostly the Europeans were the ones desperate for the supplies that the Cordoba people made or produced. So the Europeans would bring what they wanted to trade to the Cordoba people would find necessary. They probably had wonderful trade and benefitted greatly from it due to the fact the fact that many of the regions around them traded with them. They might have probably came to a time when where they couldn’t produce enough products in time for the trade to happen because of the time they traded so much with the other regions around them. This should be the most prosperous tradein the history of Cordoba.

Socio Cultural:

Socio Cultural is the cultural and the learning center of the Cordoban people . Cordoba had many many libraries. it had about seventy libraries and the most books in one library exceeds the amount 70000. this shows that cordoba probably had many great and wise people. for example, they probably had many scientists and mathematicians, and scholars who studied many things that were going to be helpful to the city of Cordoba. there were about six hundred baths that were open to the public. many people would go to the public baths to wander and socialize with other people when they were tired after on day. it was also a tradition that when you entered the baths you had to wash your hands and feet. this probably meant that they had a strong religious role that played in their everyday lives. in conclusion, religion and culture played a very important role in their lives.

Technological:

in the technological ways, cordoba had or created calendars. they mastered in the subject of astronomy and mathematics. so due to the fact that they mastered in that subject, they created a thirty volume encyclopedia. today we have many ways and helpful sources that help us to cure the many diseases that occur these days. their calendars have help us keep track of days and holidays that occur in each month. this shows that they spent a lot of time with creating many new and helpful things to the city of cordoba. all in all, the city of cordoba had many wise people that helped the city flourish.
