notability date September 2011 The Dominican Institute for OrientalStudies fr. Institut dominicain d tudes orientales or IDEO is a basic research centre located in Cairo . Its research field covers the ten first centuries of Islam . History The Dominican Institute for OrientalStudies was founded in the early 50 s, after the Second World War came to an end. However, the project of a research centre on the Arab Muslim world had been maturing in France since 1937. This idea was born out of the curiosity of three young Dominican Order Dominican Brothers on one hand, and of Holy See the Vatican s wish to bring closer Islam and Christendom on the other hand. When the international situation eventually calmed down, Georges Shehata Anawati , Serge de Beaurecueil and Jacques Jomier settled in Cairo s convent and established the Institute. Egypt appeared a fertile ground to these researchers due to its intense cultural activity and the proximity of al Azhar University , the main reference of the Sunni Islam Sunni world. IDEO nowadays Academic research IDEO is an active research centre gathered around a vast and common project studying the original texts of the ten first centuries of Islam. The large extent of the considered period allows a diversified range of specialisation. Many of IDEO s members are teachers in renowned universities and all regularly write for scientific journals. They also contribute to the Institute s revue, the MIDEO M langes de l Institut dominicain d tudes orientales , which provides articles and a critical report of the editions of the Arabic texts that is very appreciated by the scientific community. The library Providing access to over 150,000 volumes and many magazines, the library of IDEO offers valuable resources to students in Islamic studies .

With the conquest of less economically dynamic parts of the Spanish empire for the Portuguese one by the Paulistas in the 17th and 18th centuries, it was effectively divided between a southern part held by Spain, and northern territories held by the Portuguese in order to raise mules for the use in the rest of Brazil. The southern part, between 1776 and 1814, was part of the Viceroyalty of the R o de la Plata , and afterwards of the United Provinces of South America . The United Kingdom of Portugal, Brazil and the Algarves Luso Brazilian invasion conquered the southern part in 1817 and renamed it the Cisplatina Prov ncia Cisplatina . By the mid 1820s, the Thirty Three Orientals led a revolution against its successor state the Brazilian Empire , igniting the Cisplatine War . At its conclusion, in 1828, the former Banda Oriental was declared an independent state, Uruguay , by the 1828 Treaty of Montevideo Treaty of Montevideo . Uruguaiana remained with Brazil.
