Conquer It

In the Review It section you examined secondary source evidence on the developing country of Afghanistan. The evidence could be used to answer an essay question in a thesis-driven essay. In this activity you will categorize some of this evidence into the same thesis statement.

As a reminder, the essay question we are answering is:

In the activity below, you will be shown evidence from the secondary source account on Afghanistan. For each question, select all the choices that answer the question.
