Francis Cabot Lowell attracted women workers to his factories by providing boarding houses where they could live safely, by providing cash wages, and religious and educational activities for the workers.
<span>The event in the Jefferson presidency that changed the balance of power in American government was the case, Marbury vs. Madison. This case was the first time that the Supreme Court ruled that they could essentially overrule the presidency or congress if they felt their decisions or bills were unconstitutional. This brought about another set of checks and balances to the American government.</span>
I don’t believe this question truly applies to any of the candidates, but I would have to go with Andrew Jackson. Jackson won the popular vote and had the most total votes, but John Adams still won in electoral college. Therefore Jackson would be your answer because he received the most votes but failed to gain the majority of the electoral college.
Have a nice day.
These groups helped to settle Georgia. Many disliked the inability to have trade rum with Native Americans, trading with the Natives required a license (another tax), and how slavery was illegal (indentured servants were ok though). Mainly the malcontents disliked the no slavery rule. They also wanted large plantations. This led to most of the Malcontents to leave and settle in South Carolina. Their writings about how horrible Georgia was led to fewer settlers.
Answer:
Hernan Cortes was the Spanish conquistador who conquered the Aztec Empire in Mexico between 1519 and 1521.
Due to several adversities, Cortes did not come to the New World until 1506. He took part in the conquest of the islands of Hispaniola and Cuba and received large lands and Native American slaves for his efforts.
Cortes eagerly sold and pledged all his land to buy ships and supplies. He arranged through Cuba's governor Diego Velazquez, a distant relative, as well as his father-in-law, that he should lead an expedition. Officially, the goal was to discover and trade with the new countries it was rumored to be westward. He was forbidden to colonize, but through his persuasive ability and legal knowledge he had previously obtained, succeeded in persuading Governor Velazquez to insert an additional clause. It would allow him to take the necessary action without authorization, "for the good of the kingdom". At the last minute, the governor felt that Cortes was too ambitious for his own good, and changed and deleted the clause. Basically, the expedition was a private adventure as it had been funded by Cortes' own and borrowed funds.
With only 700 men, he succeeded in conquering the Aztecs' kingdom against all odds. When Cortes arrived in Mexico in 1519, the Aztecs waited for their god Quetzalcoatl to return and overthrow the Aztecs. When Cortes appeared, it was believed that a god had come. The Aztecs terrorized their neighbors by occasionally attacking them to take prisoners, which were used at religious ceremonies (with cannibalistic elements). Therefore, there was a great dissatisfaction among the Native American tribes around the Aztecs. Therefore, many of these stood on the Spanish side.
