Answer:

Option: to make a profit.

Explanation:

To make a profit was the primary reasons for the settlement of Jamestown in the New World. Jamestown became the first permanent English settlement in America, founded in 1607. The Virginia Company was responsible for establishing the first colony in America. In the 17th century, some of the European countries started sending settlers to the New World for generating wealth for the Empires. England also entered in the competition to increase wealth and power by expanding its empire in America.

Select all that apply.<br><br> Which actions by Castro led to the Bay of Pigs Invasion?
Serga [27]

Answer: Though many of his military advisors indicated that an amphibious assault on Cuba by a group of lightly armed exiles had little chance for success, Kennedy gave the go-ahead for the attack. On April 17, 1961, around 1,200 exiles, armed with American weapons and using American landing craft, waded ashore at the Bay of Pigs in Cuba. The hope was that the exile force would serve as a rallying point for the Cuban citizenry, who would rise up and overthrow Castro’s government.  

The plan immediately fell apart–the landing force met with unexpectedly rapid counterattacks from Castro’s military, the tiny Cuban air force sank most of the exiles’ supply ships, the United States refrained from providing necessary air support, and the expected uprising never happened. Over 100 of the attackers were killed, and more than 1,100 were captured.

The failure at the Bay of Pigs cost the United States dearly. Castro used the attack by the “Yankee imperialists” to solidify his power in Cuba and he requested additional Soviet military aid. Eventually that aid included missiles, and the construction of missile bases in Cuba sparked the Cuban Missile Crisis of October 1962, when the United States and the Soviet Union nearly came to blows over the island.
