You might need to do additional online research to fully answer the questions above. For the first video, all answers to the questions can be found in the video. However, to understand who Whirling Dervishes are you either need to watch the full documentary or do a quick online search about them. For the second video, most of you know who they are. However, the answers to the questions cannot be fully found in the video. To supply it, you will need to do online research again.
