Answer:
The League of Nations (1919 – 1946) was the first non-governmental international organization, founded during the Paris Peace Conference in 1919.
Its main objective was to maintain world peace after World War I.
Explanation:
The League had three main organs: the secretariat (led by the Secretary-General), the Council, and the Assembly and a large number of commissions and agencies.
The other goals of the League were: preventing war through collective security, resolving disputes between countries through diplomacy, and improving global well-being.
The most important achievements of the League were: resolving a dispute between Sweden and Finland, preventing the economic crisis in Austria and the outbreak of the war in the Balkans, and supporting the administrative division of the Saar region in Germany.
With the onset of World War II, The League of Nation failed in its essential objective - to prevent future world wars and aggression. During the war, the Assembly did not hold meetings, the Secretariat from Geneva was reduced to a minimum and relocated most of its employees to North America. After World War II the League was replaced with the United Nations.

Answer:
The correct answer is option a "Texas became and independent province of Spain".
Explanation:
It is false to affirm that Texas became and independent province of Spain between 1718 and 1722, since it happened more than 100 years later. On 1836, Texas became its own country during a short period of time and it was called the Republic of Texas. However, by 1845 Texas agreed to join the United States, with only one vote against this decision.
Also during the 1930s, at the same time as the Depression, the Great Plains region of the United States experienced an extended and destructive drought. The drought had a significant and destructive effect because of policies that reached back for decades. In 1862, the United States Congress passed the Homestead Act, and many Americans from the East moved into the plains to become farmers and ranchers. The farmers replaced the prairie grass with dry land wheat, and the ranchers had their cattle graze on the grass that was not replaced. Over time, with increasing demands for wheat, more farming occurred and damage to the prairie lands began to be long-term and significant. In 1930, a decade-long drought began, and the winds began to create dust storms on the farmed and overgrazed prairies. They literally began to be blown away. Some accounts and photographs record giant clouds of dust that would cover the sky and sun. This dust covered everything and reshaped the terrain. The “Dust Bowl” was a term referring to 19 states in the central and south-central United States that felt the brunt of the drought upon land that was mismanaged. Farm families had little choice other than to head west and try to find work. The same Resettlement Administration that was coordinating the Greenbelt Project and attempting to address rural poverty was also overseeing the farm workers and displaced sharecroppers who were forced to leave the stricken prairies of the Dust Bowl in search of work.
This historical era is commonly taught in high school social studies and history courses. The National Center for History in the Schools identifies this period in U.S. History as Era 8, Standard 1 (The causes of the Great Depression and how it affected American society) and Standard 2 (How the New Deal addressed the Great Depression, transformed American federalism, and initiated the welfare state). Related works of literature, such as The Grapes of Wrath and other texts, are sometimes used either in a social studies/U.S. history course, or in English language arts or American literature classes.
The photography of the Dust Bowl and Depression era is vast and rich, with images that were often commissioned by the Historical Section of the Farm Security Administration (FSA). FSA Director Roy Stryker approved the commissioning and collecting of more than 270,000 photographs. It was a very specific and focused part of the FSA. FSA photographs “exploited the convention of the documentary style—such as black-and-white prints and uncontrolled lighting—that signified topicality, social concern and social truth” (Stange, 1992, p. 130). These photographs were commissioned from a large group of photographers who worked in rural and urban areas across the country, and were intended to provide the urban and suburban population of America with images that would evoke humanitarian responses to the plight of those facing adversity from the economic and environmental crises of the 1930s.
This photo collection is not intended to be comprehensive. Rather, it provides several specific photographs and ways to use them in the study of particular topics. This is meant to serve as a model for creating collections of photographs to use with your curriculum. Resources listed in the bibliography at the end of this collection will help you do this.
The answer to this question would be A) or the first option.
