History

The National Assembly of France.

This was illegal according to the laws of the time, but the 3rd Estate was declaring those laws and rules as a system that opposed the will and well-being of the people of France.

The old laws on the books said that when a gathering of the Estates General occurred, each of the three estates met separately and each group had one collective vote (the consensus of the whole group) as their final vote.  The 1st Estate (clergy) and 2nd Estate (nobility), representing 2% of the population total, would combine their votes in opposition to the vote of the 3rd Estate (the common people).  The 3rd Estate essentially declared that they, 98% of the nation, were the nation and that their delegates thus were the National Assembly.

There's more to the story than that, but we'll keep it brief here for now!

What did Columbus achieve in territories that he claimed for Spain? A. sole ownership B. the duties of governor C. immense amoun
Reika [66]

The right answer is B. The Catholic Monarchs supported Columbus in his project to reach Asia, allowing him to make four trips (in 1492, 1493, 1498 and 1502). In the first one of them he arrived not to India (as he expected) but to the island of Guanahani, in the Bahamas. In addition, they granted him a certain number of privileges, such as the title of Admiral, Governor and Viceroy of the Indies, and a percentage of the riches he found.
