Explanation:

The history of New Zealand dates back approximately 700 years to when it was discovered and settled by Polynesians, who developed a distinct Māori culture. Like other Pacific cultures, Māori society was centred on kinship links and connection with the land but, unlike them, it was adapted to a cool, temperate environment rather than a warm, tropical one.

The first European explorer known to sight New Zealand was Dutch navigator Abel Tasman on 13 December 1642.[1] He explored and charted the coastline but never landed. Captain James Cook, who reached New Zealand in October 1769 on the first of his three voyages, was the first European explorer to circumnavigate and map New Zealand.[2]

From the late 18th century, the country was regularly visited by explorers and other sailors, missionaries, traders and adventurers. In 1840 the Treaty of Waitangi was signed between the British Crown and various Māori chiefs, bringing New Zealand into the British Empire and giving Māori the same rights as British subjects. However, disputes over the differing translations of the Treaty and settler desire to acquire land from Māori led to the New Zealand Wars from 1843.

There was extensive British settlement throughout the rest of the century and into the early part of the next century. The New Zealand Wars and the imposition of a European economic and legal system led to most of New Zealand's land passing from Māori to Pākehā (European) ownership, and most Māori subsequently became impoverished.[3]

From the 1890s the New Zealand Parliament enacted a number of progressive initiatives, including women's suffrage and old age pensions. After becoming a self-governing dominion with the British Empire in 1907, the country remained an enthusiastic member of the empire, and over 100,000 New Zealanders fought in World War I as part of the New Zealand Expeditionary Force. After the war, New Zealand signed the Treaty of Versailles (1919), joined the League of Nations, and pursued an independent foreign policy, while its defence was still controlled by Britain.

When World War II broke out in 1939, New Zealanders contributed to the defence of the British Empire; the country contributed some 120,000 troops. From the 1930s the economy was highly regulated and an extensive welfare state was developed. Meanwhile, Māori culture underwent a renaissance, and from the 1950s Māori began moving to the cities in large numbers. This led to the development of a Māori protest movement which in turn led to greater recognition of the Treaty of Waitangi in the late 20th century.

The country's economy suffered in the aftermath of the 1973 global energy crisis, the loss of New Zealand's biggest export market upon Britain's entry to the European Economic Community, and rampant inflation. In 1984, the Fourth Labour Government was elected amid a constitutional and economic crisis. The interventionist policies of the Third National Government were replaced by "Rogernomics", a commitment to a free market economy. Foreign policy after 1980 became more independent especially in pushing for a nuclear-free zone. Subsequent governments have generally maintained these policies, although tempering the free market ethos somewhat.

NeX [460]
I know for sure that the Aztec and Inca societies would practice human/animal sacrifice in order to have a "sun rise;" sacrifice it to the Gods up above. I also know that the Aztec and Inca societies were really behind when it came down to centralized government trade. 
That's all I know and hope this helps!

In response to the trade imbalance with Britain, the United States
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

a) began looking for new markets

Explanation:

This happened in 1780s. Not long after United States gained our independence from Britain.

At that time,  USA was not really well first in International trades. Many people soon realized that the current trade agreements with Britain created a  lot of disadvantages for United States. The country have to spent a lot of resources while receiving small profit in return.

As a result, USA started to look for new markets. Mostly from other European countries who are in direct competition from Britain in order to jack up the price of products from USA>

Evaluate the extent to which the ratification of the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments to the constitution marked a turning po
viktelen [127]
<span>First, let’s take a look at what the ratification of the 14th amendment meant. The Fourteenth Amendment gave citizenship to all people who were born or naturalized (a non-citizen who earns citizenship) in the U.S., including former slaves. It also allowed the government the ability to reduce representation in Congress for states that interfered with a person’s right to vote.
The Fifteenth Amendment focused on not allowing states the ability to deny someone their right to vote based on their race, color, or previous enslavement. States could, however, choose how citizens qualify to vote. Some southern states required people pay taxes to vote or take a literacy (reading and writing) test.
By allowing everyone who is a citizen (including former slaves) to participate in voting and electing government officials, this provided a way for all to be represented. Some changes still needed to be made, as seen in the Fifteenth Amendment. The creation of these amendments paved the way for future laws to be passed including the Civil Rights Act and Voting Rights Act. They ensured that all voters, regardless of skin color or race, would be seen as equals, be present, and be heard in political matters.</span>
