It is thanks to Amerigo Vespucci and Christopher Columbus that the land was discovered, and so spurred other countires such as Spain and Portugal into what now is called the Age of Discovery. Not be outdone by the other, both of these countries wished to seize control of the raw materials and land available for their own. What they did not expect was the wide trade off of contact with the Native Americans. This includes plants, animals, diseases, and even slaves.

Which of the following scale is the largest?
Gwar [14]

Answer:

1 : 25,000 is the largest scale.

Explanation:

1 cm represents 2 km; is not correct because this is actually the smallest of the scales presented, meaning that 1 cm on the map is equal to 200,000 cm on the ground.

1 : 50,000; is not correct because this is the second-largest scale from the options.

1 : 25,000; is correct because it is the largest scale, with 1 cm on the map representing 25,000 cm on the ground. The smaller the scale, the larger it is.

1 : 100,000; is not correct because it is the third-largest, with 1 cm on the map representing 100,000 cm on the ground.

Why are the counties of Michigan organized in a grid pattern?
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

The counties of Michigan are organized in a grid pattern because the internal subdivision of the state followed the pattern of surveying established by the Land Ordinance of 1785, which established a rectangular division of the lands of the Northwest Territory, with the objective of facilitating an equal distribution between settlers who would be sent there to populate the region west of the Appalachians.

Thus, the Northwest Territory began to be subdivided into a rectangular shape, and the counties in this region began to take this shape. So when Michigan was established as a state, its counties (as well as those of the other Midwest states) continued to maintain this rectangular shape.
