Answer:

The correct answer is <u>A) Hernando DeSoto was the first known European explorer in what is now the Southeast.</u>

<u>D: Spain founded Catholic "missions" to spread their influence in North America.</u>

<u>E) Diseases spread by the Spanish caused many American Indians to die.</u>

Explanation:

Hernando DeSoto was a celebrated Spanish explorer who worked under the Spanish crown to explore, plunder and conquer the new world. While he was not the first European to explore North America, he is widely reported as the first to reach the great Mississippi river.

He led his expeditions from modern-day Florida and moved upwards, exploring Alabama, Georgia and neighboring regions. This would rightly be described as the US Southeast today.

While he was not able to establish colonies here, he had a number of clashes with local tribes and more devastating were the diseases that his crew carried. Small pox and measles were unheard of in the new world and wherever they traveled, the diseases spread quickly.

Also, Spain used religion as a means to convert people and bring them under their sphere of influence.
