Mongkut (Rama IV) (October 18, 1804-1 October 1868) was the king of Siam from 1851 to 1868, considered by historians as one of the most important monarchs of the Chakri dynasty. In 1851 he came to the throne. His main concern was the maintenance of the independence of the country against the European colonizers represented by the expansion in Southeast Asia of France and the United Kingdom. Given his training, he felt that it was necessary for Thais to adopt Western ways of life in order not to be considered barbarians by the colonial powers.

Answer:

The correct answer is letter c) Surviving as the first permanent English colony in North America

Explanation:

In April 1606, a letter was issued by King James I of Inflair to Virginia Company with the intention of establishing colonies in Virginia. The Virginia Company was a privately held holding company looking for economic opportunity. They expected to profit from mineral wealth such as gold and iron ore, timber and wood products, and other natural resources. In addition, the letter named two subsidiaries of the company, the Virginia Company of London and the Virginia Company of Plymouth. The Virginia Company of London established the colony in Jamestown. Thus Jamestown became the first permanent English settlement in North America.

why do you think there are so many steps to pass legislation? What are the positives and negatives of this process?

defon

Answer:

There are so many steps because they need to see if the law is good and worth passing and won't infringe on people' rights. The positives of this process is that they will have time to analyze the law and see the pros and cons. Civilians will also be able to weigh in on the law. The negatives are that even if the law needs to be passed quickly, it can't, because it needs to go through each step.
