1. Which Dixon leader was most in favor of annexation by the United States?
adoni [48]

1- The correct answer is A. Samuel Houston was the Texan leader who most supported the annexation to the United States. In fact, he was President of the Republic of Texas twice, and from his position he always fought for annexation, unlike others like Mirabeau Lamar. In addition, it is stated that Houston went to Texas sent by President Andrew Jackson to achieve annexation.

2- Houston argued that the annexation had to be carried out to respect the will and right of the Texan people (which were made up of American settlers) to decide the legal status of their territory. This argument is related to the right of self-determination of peoples, which I consider valid since it's theb population who has the power to decide on their future and that of the territory they inhabit and administer, not being the states able to make decisions contrary to the people and their will.

Nutka1998 [239]

British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba are 4 states from Canada that are connected through their borders. Understanding that we need the approximate degree for the southern side of each of this states the logic way to find out is to look the latitude from one of the cities that are located in the south. Using Milk River as a reference, located in the south of Alberta, we can conclude that the southern border of each of this states is located at 49º N.
