This map shows the spread of hinduism throughout asia. based on the map, which is most likely the order of locations to adopt the religion? bombay, katmandu, bangkok, kuala lumpur bombay, bangkok, kuala lumpur, katmandu katmandu, bombay, bangkok, kuala lumpur kuala lumpur, bangkok, katmandu, bombay

Since you didn't provide the map, I figured out the answer by process of elimination. The correct answer is the first one: Bombay (India), Kathmandu (Nepal), Bangkok (Thailand), Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia).

I'll explain:  India and Nepal are geographically close. In addition, Hinduism still exerts enormous influence in these two countries nowadays. The largest Hindu populations are in these two countries. Therefore, it is safe to assume that the expansion started in India, then went to Nepal. Being the only alternative that presents the capital of India (Bombay) as the first option and  the capital of Nepal (Kathmandu) as the second option, the correct answer is the first one.

the california missions began in the late 18th century as an effort to convert native americans to catholicism and expand european territory. there were 21 missions in all, lasting from 1769 until about 1833.   the missions were built by the spanish starting in 1769 in order to “colonize” the territory of alta california. so the missions were important because they were the means of settling california. it also wanted to keep other european countries out of alta california. building settlements along the coast would them meet these goals. missionaries wanted to convert the indians to the roman catholic faith. california indians did much of the work to build missions.
