Answer:
As a reaction to Juarez's decision to prolong paying off the national debt, France, Spain and Italy sent military forces to Mexico in order to force the payment, which ended up unleashing the Battle of Puebla, remembered in Mexican historiography as Cinco de Mayo.
Explanation:
Cinco de Mayo is a regional holiday in Mexico that is mainly celebrated in the state of Puebla. The day is celebrated to remember the first victory the Mexican forces won, led by General Ignacio Zaragoza, over the French forces in the Battle of Puebla on May 5, 1862.
In 1861, Mexico had stopped making interest payments on loans raised by the state. This caused France and other European countries to attack Mexico in late 1861 to try to force the country to continue making interest payments. The French government decided to try to occupy Mexico. The first part of France's invasion was successful, but on May 5, 1862, in the city of Puebla, Mexican troops managed to fight back the French army's attack. In the battle of Puebla, the Mexican army was led by General Ignacio Zaragoza. Although the Mexican army won over France in Puebla, it only meant that the advance of the French troops was delayed to the capital Mexico City, which they occupied a year later, as well as other large parts of Mexico. The French occupation forces let Maximilian I, Emperor of Mexico, take Mexico's faith. The French were defeated in 1867 and then forced out of the country.
Company colonies (aka charter colonies) were specifically governed by a trade company authorized by the king. These had more independence in their government.
Proprietary colonies were appointed by the King to a proprietor to govern. These were responsible to the King.
My Father said he was let go. "Let go from what, Father?" I asked curiously. He walked to his and my Mother's room. Not too long after, I heard yelling. It wasn't until my Father stormed out of the house that I heard my Mother cry. What was happening? It wasn't until now, 4 years later that I understood what happened.
They call it "The Great Depression," it's a quite accurate name. My Father was unemployed, and started drinking. My Mother decided to attempt to get a job, even then, there wouldn't be enough money to support my Father's Alcohol addiction, my brother and myself. I've also noticed my neighbors talking about my Mother when I am doing my house chores. We have resorted to going to St. Paul's potluck Tuesday worship. Everyone who went, usually only went to get a full stomach.
I am in charge of patching up our clothes. We cant afford new ones, so I have to fix the ones we already have. Everybody says, "Use it up, wear it out, make do or do without,” maybe it'll catch on. This depression has taken a tole on everybody however, some families more than others. Everything has gone wrong, I heard about this crime duo, Bonnie and Clyde? They are going around robbing banks in the North. It's not so safe, so Mother says I have to be in by 5 in the evening. What are we going to do if this never gets better?
Hope this was good enough, made it up as I went along so you shouldn't have to worry about plagiarism. :)))
The answer is Letter A. The Minoan civilization
succeeded in the middle Bronze Age on the Mediterranean island of Crete from
ca. 2000 BCE until ca. 1500 BCE and, with their exceptional art and
architecture, the Minoans made a noteworthy contribution to
the growth of Western European civilization. And also, weapons were around long
before the Minoans.
