History
1 answer:
vladimir2022 [97]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Anglo-Americans were drawn by inexpensive land and believed annexation of Texas to the United States was likely and would improve the market for the land. Some settlers were fleeing debts and sought refuge in the Mexican colony, where they were safe from American creditors. The American's wanted to settle in Texas for free land and also because they wanted America to expand and take over territories that belonged to Mexico.The people from the southern states wanted to expand westward. The planting of cotton was very profitable using slave labor and the cotton gin. The settlers wanted more land. Starting in Georgia the cotton agriculture had spread to Alabama, Mississippi, and Louisiana. America had no more land to the west but Mexico did.

The preamble to the Declaration of Independence outlet to principles upon which the new government would be best which of these
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

A government based on a social contract, is the right answer.

Explanation:

The Second Continental Congress adopted the pronouncement "the Declaration of Independence" during its conference in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on 4th June 1776. Under this declaration, the thirteen colonies of America had to explain why do they regard themselves as a sovereign state.

The thirteen colonies of America in the Declaration of Independence rejected the very idea of the divine right of rule and based their bid for independence on the Social contract theory of John Locke. John Locke in his "Second Treatise of Government" argued that the laws and political orders are the product of humans and are not natural. He also stated that people are born with some natural rights that the government or anyone can't take away. Therefore, these ideas of natural rights were adopted by the authors of the Declaration of Independence.

What was a direct result of the distribution of goods in Africa
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

The distribution of goods led directly to the development of cities. Just like in Europe cities developed around centers of trade. The trade led to the urbanization and development of big towns that were connecting different trade routes. The trade routes involved North Africa, Sahara, and Europe and it lasted for centuries. More urbanization led to even the first university being built in Timbuktu in Mali.
