A Golden Age For Cordobaaaaaaaaa

During the golden age of Corodba, its political ways prospered in many ways. THeir government gained more power and wealthy because of powerful rulers, such as Abd-al Rahman. With that, COrdoba also became powerful. It's just like the USA today. The USA (like al-Andalus) gained more and more power, and so did Washington DC, a capital city of a nation just like Cordoba. Our government also strengthened more and more, and so did our leaders, like Barack Obama and Arnnold Schwarzenegger. This golden age of Cordoba also strengthened many other things.
Because of the many skills the citizens of Cordoba had, much money was made. They made silk, copper, weapons, armor, and other makings of fine art. All kinds of people had a variety of skillls. The ways people made money is similar to the way we make money today. Many different people, such as engineers, blacksmiths, carpenters, weavers, and other jobs are much like Cordoba's people. With Cordoba's citizens and their skills, Cordoba had a rich and prosperous economy.
Cordoba also had a great way of maintaining cultural rights. They allowed people to worship freely without any restrictions. They also probably had many different places of worship, too. Cordoba had a blending of cultures because of the many different religions worshipped there. The USA also doesn't restrain people from worshipping their religions. We have many different churches: churches for Muslims, Christians, and many other cultures. With this freedom of worship and culture, Cordoba's citizens were happy with the way they lived.
Because of Cordoba's prosperous economy, their technology was very creative. At night, the streets of Cordoba was "filled with lights." They also had technological tools to help them with daily life, such as astronomical or surgical tools. The USA also has similar tools and technology. They also have streetlights that light up the streets. AS you can see, the USA and Cordoba were both similar, although the USA is having some economic difficulties these days. Cordoba's great politics, economy, culture, and technology helped it to become a great and prosperous city.
