In your response, be sure to address all parts of the question. Use complete sentences; an outline or bulleted list alone is not

acceptable.
Use the passage below to answer all parts of the question that follows.

“In the past, none failed to hear Confucius’ teachings, but few understood them. Thereafter came the vulgar Confucian scholarship of later times, which stressed memorization and literary composition, but was of no real use. Then came the deviant doctrines of Buddhism and Daoism, which had loftier goals but lacked solid substance. These teachings were mixed together in great confusion so that rulers could no longer hear the essential teachings of Confucius, and lesser men could no longer enjoy the benefits of good government. Everything decayed until disorder and destruction reached its extreme in the Five Dynasties period*.

Yet Heaven’s cycle continues. The virtuous power of the Song dynasty rose up, and both government and education shone with great luster. With that, the method whereby the ancients taught men was once again made brilliantly clear to the world.”

The initial event is Italy invades Ethiopia

The Fall of Nanjing occurred in 1938 after enduring a four-month conflict. Similarly, in 1938, Hitler also annexed Sudetenland. The invasion of Ethiopia transpired earlier during the Second Italo-Ethiopian War that began in 1935, preceding the other two events, albeit the conflict with Ethiopia extended until 1939, four years after the invasion started.
