Explanation:

Let's know better each explorer. It's important to know their names and accomplishments.

<u>Francis Drake (1540 - 1596)</u>

<u></u>

Francis Drake was an English explorer. Queen Elizabeth sent Drake to South America as part of England try to stand out itself from Portugal and Spanish on their empires. At the time Drake arrived in South America, that place was under control of the Iberian empires (Portugal and Spain). He returned to England via the Pacific, and it was honored by Queen Elizabeth for his victories.  The nickname English Sea Dog was given to him, alongside his mate Richard Hawking, as part of their victory against the Spanish Armada in 1588. The battle was influenced by the English support to the independence of Dutch from Spain, and an attempt of Spain to destroy the English emergent commercial trades in the Atlantic.

<u>Vasco de Balboa (1475 - 1519)</u>

Vasco de Balboa was a Spanish explorer. He made many alliances with the natives during his explorations in the new world. These alliances led him, in 1513, to discover the Pacific Ocean (or Mar del Sul, as he named). The arrival at the Pacific Ocean was made crossing the Isthmus of Panama.

<u>Ferdinand de Magellan (1480 - 1521)</u>

Ferdinand de Magellan was a Portuguese sailor. His proposal to reach India through a new route by the Pacific was refused by Portugal. At that time, the Portuguese empire was strong enough to refuse this proposition with its recent discoveries (especially Brazil in 1500). Anyway, Magellan was commissioned by King Charles I from Spain to do his attempt to reach India through Asia using the Pacific as a route. If Magellan would accomplish this attempt, Spain would obtain a valuable route and could confront Portugal in trade. His expedition was able to accomplish this attempt, but Magellan died in 1521.

<u>Jacques Cartier (1491 - 1557)</u>

Jacques Cartier was a French explorer. Cartier was commissioned by King Francis I of France to explorer the northern parts of North America. His idea was to found a passage to Asia. France, just like England, was trying to surpass Portugal and Spain looking for new lands and trade routes. In 1534, during his explorations, Cartier found the St. Lawerence River, and he was the first to explorer it.

<u>Samuel de Champlain (1567 - 1635)</u>

Samuel de Champlain led the first French settlement in 1608. However, we have to explain this statement. Jacques Cartier tried to create a settlement in 1541, during his explorations of the St. Lawrence River, but the settlement was abandoned due to the bad weather, diseases and other bad aspects.

<u>Jacques Marquette (1637 - 1675)</u>

Jacques Marquette was a Jesuit explorer. He is best known for his traveling trough the Mississipi river.

1. During World War I, many women joined the military forces. They did so mostly in non-combat roles, such as nurses and switchboard operators. However, about 13,000 women were also admitted into active duty in the U.S. Navy. The government compensated all women who joined the war effort. The women in the Navy received the same benefits and responsibilities as men, including identical pay and veteran status after the war.

2. All Americans were interested in the war effort, and this meant that most of them valued the active role that women were taking. However, this did not necessarily translated to a more egalitarian approach to their private lives, as women continued to fulfill traditional roles.

3. A lot of women felt empowered because of the role they were playing in the war. They entered the workforce in large numbers, and developed a social, independent life outside of home.

4. The participation of women in the war led to a change in traditional gender roles. Women were able to gain more freedom and appreciation. They were also able to build a life outside their home. This encouraged them to fight for equal rights, particularly when it came to suffrage.
