Which term refers to groups of herders who move with their animals in search of pasture and water?

• A. Pastoral Nomads
• B. Roman Empire
• C. Monarchy
• D. Five Pillars

Answer: (A)

Pastoral nomads describe people who move with their livestock to find fresh pasture and water. This way of life centers on mobility and animal husbandry rather than settled farming or urban living. Classic examples include groups like Bedouins, Maasai, and Mongolian herders, who migrate seasonally to sustain their herds. The other options don’t fit because they refer to a political system, a large empire, or a set of religious duties, not to groups defined by moving with animals to graze.
