<span>Logging ranks among the top causes of deforestation in Central and South America, especially because of the high demand for timber in countries importing from the region. In fact, between 1990 and 2010, South America lost about 8.7% of its forest cover, and over 80% of Latin America's tropical species have been lost just within the past 40 years. For the second human factor affecting the environment of Central and South America, according to the World Bank, more than 70% of water used in Central and South America empties back into rivers in the region without undergoing any form of treatment. This implies that industrial and sewage waste flow back into rivers, lakes, dams, and other water sources. This is so endemic in the region that every one in eight people there doesn't have access to clean drinking water.</span>

luda_lava [24]

The territory that became an independent country and was not a U.S. acquisition during American imperialism in the 1890s is Cuba.

In the 1890s, the Island region known as Cuba was under Spanish rule until the Spanish-American war.

Following the Spanish-American war in 1898, when the United States defeated Spain, the Spanish government ceded the Cuba territory to the United States under the Treaty of Paris.

However, by 1902, Cuba became independent, which made the island to be removed from the United States acquisition during the period of American imperialism in the 1890s.

Hence, in this case, it is concluded that the correct answer is Cuba.

Como intentaron las potencias coloniales europeas hacer que los africanos dependieran de los bienes importados?
natka813 [3]

Answer:

No sé si esto ayudará, pero espero que lo dosifique

Explanation:

Este artículo abarca la diplomacia mundial y, más en general, las relaciones mundiales de las grandes potencias, de 1814 a 1919, que enlaza con artículos más detallados. Las relaciones internacionales de los países menores están incluidas en sus propios artículos de historia. Esta era abarca el período entre el final de las guerras napoleónicas y el Congreso de Viena (1814-15), al final de la Primera Guerra Mundial y la Conferencia de Paz de París.

Entre los temas importantes de la época están la rápida industrialización y el creciente poder del Reino Unido, Europa y más tarde, de los Estados Unidos, con Japón surgiendo como gran potencia e imperio al final de este período. Esto llevó a una competición imperialista y colonialista por la influencia y el poder por todo el mundo, cuyo impacto aún es amplio y con consecuencias que llegan a la época actual. El Reino Unido estableció una red económica informal que, combinada con la Royal Navy, hizo de ella la nación más influyente de la época. Hablando en términos generales, no hubo conflictos graves entre las grandes potencias, siendo la mayor parte de las guerras escaramuzas entre beligerantes dentro de las fronteras de países concretos. En Europa, las guerras fueron mucho más pequeñas, más cortas y menos frecuentes que nunca. Este siglo tranquilo se quebró al estallar la Primera guerra mundial (1914-18), que fue inesperada en cuanto a su momento, duración, bajas, e impacto a largo plazo.
