All the following except one are the communes of the colony of Senegal where the Policy of Assimilation was applied
Bayanin Amsa
Out of the given options, all are communes of the colony of Senegal where the Policy of Assimilation was applied except "Kaolack." The Policy of Assimilation was a French colonial policy that aimed to assimilate the indigenous populations of their colonies into French culture and society. The policy was implemented in different ways in different colonies, but in Senegal, it was implemented through a system of communes. Under the system of communes, certain cities were designated as communes and were given a greater degree of autonomy and self-government. These communes were also opened up to non-French citizens, including the indigenous population, who could become full French citizens by adopting French culture and values. The four communes mentioned in the question, Saint Louis, Rufisque, Goree, and Kaolack, were all part of the colony of Senegal, but only the first three were the communes where the Policy of Assimilation was applied. Kaolack was not designated as a commune until 1914, which was after the implementation of the Policy of Assimilation. Therefore, the correct answer is "Kaolack," as it is the commune that was not part of the Policy of Assimilation in the colony of Senegal.

The expansion of white communities in South Africa is attributable to the Great Trek.

Bayanin Amsa
The system of imperial military rule had its deepest roots in Egypt. Imperial military rule refers to the political system in which an imperial power, such as a European country, governs a foreign territory through the use of military force. This system had its deepest roots in Egypt, which was a colony of the British Empire in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Under imperial military rule, the imperial power has almost complete control over the foreign territory, and often uses military force to maintain order and suppress dissent. In Egypt, the British relied heavily on the use of military force to control the local population, and established a complex system of military and civilian administration to govern the colony. The roots of this system in Egypt can be traced back to the country's occupation by the French under Napoleon in 1798, and the subsequent intervention of the British to expel the French in 1801. This intervention established a precedent for foreign military control over Egypt, which would continue for more than a century. Overall, the system of imperial military rule had its deepest roots in Egypt, where the British Empire established a complex system of military and civilian administration to govern the colony and maintain control over the local population.

All the following except one led to the re-emergence of old trade patterns under Omani rule
Bayanin Amsa
All the following except one led to the re-emergence of old trade patterns under Omani rule: attack on the Portuguese in the 1640s. The re-emergence of old trade patterns under Omani rule was due to a number of factors, including the availability of capital from India, the increased demand for slaves, and the willingness of Africans in the interior to take slaves to the coast. These factors created a favorable environment for the revival of trade, which had declined under previous rule. The Omani empire took advantage of this situation and established itself as a major player in the trade of goods and slaves along the East African coast. The attack on the Portuguese in the 1640s, on the other hand, had little to do with the revival of trade patterns and was more related to the competition for control over the region and its resources.

Bayanin Amsa
The crisis of modernization of the 20th Century has primarily led to the growth of Islamic reform movements in many sub-Saharan African countries. As Africa began to modernize in the 20th century, many people began to feel that traditional forms of Islam were inadequate for addressing the challenges of modern life. Islamic reform movements emerged as a response to this crisis, seeking to modernize and adapt Islamic teachings to the needs of the modern world. These movements emphasized education, social justice, and the importance of Islamic values in everyday life. The crisis of modernization included the introduction of new technologies, colonialism, urbanization, and globalization, which all contributed to the need for a new approach to Islamic thought and practice.

The Colony and Protectorate of Lagos and the Protectorate of Southern Nigeria were merged in 1906 to form the Colony and Protectorate of Southern Nigeria. In the late 19th century, the British established a number of colonies and protectorates in what is now Nigeria, with the aim of controlling trade and exploiting natural resources. The Colony and Protectorate of Lagos, which had been established in 1861, was one of these territories, while the Protectorate of Southern Nigeria was formed in 1900. In 1906, the British government decided to merge these two territories to form the Colony and Protectorate of Southern Nigeria. The merger was part of a broader effort to streamline British administration in Nigeria and create a more efficient colonial system. The new colony and protectorate was a vast territory that included a diverse array of ethnic and linguistic groups. It was governed by a governor, who was appointed by the British government, and had a legislative council that included both appointed and elected members. The Colony and Protectorate of Southern Nigeria continued to exist until 1914, when it was merged with the Protectorate of Northern Nigeria to form the Colony and Protectorate of Nigeria, which was administered as a single entity until Nigeria gained independence in 1960.

The Local Government Reform of 1976 was the programme initiated to institutionalize the local government system in Nigeria. The Local Government Reform of 1976 was introduced by the military government of General Murtala Mohammed with the aim of decentralizing power and promoting grassroots development. The reform created a system of local governments across Nigeria, which were responsible for delivering basic services to their communities, such as water, sanitation, and primary healthcare. Under the reform, each state was divided into local government areas (LGAs), and each LGA was to have a democratically elected council responsible for governing the affairs of the local community. The councils were expected to generate revenue, manage local resources, and prioritize the needs of the community. The Local Government Reform of 1976 was a significant milestone in Nigeria's political history, as it marked a departure from the centralized governance that had characterized the country's post-independence period. The reform helped to bring governance closer to the people and empowered local communities to participate in decision-making and development. It's worth noting that while there was a Local Government Reform of 1979, it was a follow-up to the 1976 reform and did not introduce any significant changes to the local government system.

The division of the Sokoto Caliphate into Emirates was largely due to the geographical reasons of the vastness of the territory under the Caliphate's control. The Sokoto Caliphate was a vast Islamic empire that covered a large area of present-day Northern Nigeria and some parts of Niger, Benin, and Cameroon. The administration of such a vast territory was challenging, and it became necessary to break it down into smaller administrative units for effective governance. To achieve this, the Caliphate was divided into Emirates, with each being headed by an Emir who was responsible for the administration of his Emirates. This administrative structure made it easier to control the territory and provided an opportunity for the decentralization of power. While there may have been some rivalry between the Hausa Jihadists and the Fulani scholars, and some economic factors may have influenced the decision to create the Emirates, the primary reason was the need for a more efficient administrative structure due to the geographical vastness of the Sokoto Caliphate.

Decree No. 34 of 1966 was the Unitarism Policy of Major General Aguiyi Ironsi. After taking over the government in a military coup in 1966, Major General Johnson Aguiyi Ironsi introduced several policies aimed at consolidating his grip on power and addressing the country's political and administrative challenges. One of the most significant of these policies was the Unitarism Policy, which was introduced through Decree No. 34 of 1966. The Unitarism Policy was designed to replace the existing federal system of government with a centralized unitary system. This involved abolishing the regions and replacing them with a system of 12 states, each headed by a military governor appointed by Ironsi. The policy was also intended to reduce the influence of regional and ethnic interests in national affairs and strengthen the central government's control over the country. However, the Unitarism Policy was highly controversial and unpopular, especially in the North, where many felt it would give undue advantage to the South. The policy was one of the factors that led to Ironsi's overthrow and assassination in a counter-coup in July 1966. Overall, Decree No. 34 of 1966 was a major policy initiative of Major General Aguiyi Ironsi's administration that aimed to centralize power in the hands of the federal government through the establishment of a unitary system of government in Nigeria.
