Answer:
Before his death, Genghis Khan had already started to rely on family members and highly placed generals to rule a great deal of territory. Following his death, Mongolia continued to rule over the Golden Horde, the Central Asian Jagadai domains, and the Il-khans of Iran. The unity of the Mongol Empire began to disintegrate when several branches refused to accept Khubilai as the Grand Khan, and he subsequently established the Yuan reign in China. Central Asia's adherence to the Jagadai traditions and Turkic culture led to hatred of the Yuan Empire, which subsequently asserted itself over China and Vietnam (Annam). The Golden Horde remained predominant in Russia and tolerated the Orthodox Church. In some historians' opinion, Alexander Nevskii's alliance with the Golden Horde in return for religious toleration preserved the "Russian-ness" of the church; thus Russia repelled the Teutonic Knights. There was rivalry between the Golden Horde's Muslim leaders and the Il-khans, which had overthrown the Abbasid Caliphate in 1258, but it was mostly political rather than religious rivalry, and the Il-khan leader Ghazan became a Muslim in 1295. In general, there was little connection between religion and feuding branches of Mongol descendants, and rivalries were based on politics rather than religion.

Answer:
B. Most people south of the United States still speak Spanish, or a language that is influenced by the Spanish language.
Explanation:
It is not A, because Spain was a Catholic country, thereby, when creating colonies and dealing with the natives of Central and South America, they converted the natives to Catholicism, not Protestants.
It is not C, because Spain did not technically settle much of the United States, only reaching towards the south of the US (around present-day Texas), and temporarily in the Louisiana Purchase after it acquired the territory from France (only to give it back). Most Spanish speaking regions are found simply in the south, or from further immigrations later on in history.
It is not D, for again, the Spanish did not extensively settle what is now known as the United States. The United States draws most of it's language and culture from Great Britain, therefore having the United Kingdom as the ancestery of choice (during that time and age).
