The English objectives of colonization depended on which sector of the population was defining them.

For the government in general, the advantage of colonization was having more land, and in particular, fertile, productive land. Another advantage of having more land is the fact that land gives extra power. It allows you to have a larger army and navy. It also provides prestige. Finally, wealth in the form of natural resources and trade was a powerful motivator.

Priests, educators and the upper classes involved in charity work believed colonization to be humanitarian. They wanted to educate "savages" so that they could be more cultured, lived in a more civilized way, and followed the "correct" religion.

For many individuals, the main objective of discovering and acquiring new land was adventure, and discovery. Colonization came with exploration, and many scientific advancements were produced due to the enormous territories that the United Kingdom acquired and studied.

As for whether this enterprise was successful in achieving those goals, for the most part it appears like it was. Wealth greatly increased in England, and they did become a superpower. The empire also "reeducated" millions of people around the world and achieved great feats of adventure and discovery.

frozen [14]

La respuesta correcta a esta pregunta abierta es la siguiente.

La manera en cambiaron las sociedades autóctonas del continente Americano previo al surgimiento de los grandes imperios que conocieron los Españoles, fue en que de una serie de grupos tribales, las sociedades fueron creciendo al establecerse en un solo lugar para aplicar las técnicas de agricultura que estas tribus fueron desarrollando. Posteriormente, tribus guerreras como los Aztecas, provenientes de Aztlán, fueron incrementando su presencia y poderío en Mesoamérica, conquistando pequeñas tribus, esclavizándolas, y haciendo que pagaran tributo. De esta manera creció la civilización Azteca, hasta convertirse en imperio. Los Aztecas, Mayas e Incas, se convirtieron en los imperios más dominantes en Mesoamérica y Sudamérica, respectivamente, y eso fue lo que encontraron los Españoles a su llegada.

Which of the following president is most responsible for expanding the power of the presidency through the use of executive orde
bija089 [108]

The president who was most responsible for expanding the power of the presidency through the use of executive orders was Andrew Jackson. He dictated twelve executive orders, being the first American president to exceed ten executive orders during his term.

Executive orders are provisions issued by the President of the United States that administer the operations of the executive branch of the federal government.

Executive orders belong to administrative law, but have the force of law only when they are based on the executive powers granted directly to the President of the United States by the Constitution (Article II), or are dictated according to laws of Congress that explicitly delegate to the President a certain degree of discretionary power (delegated legislation).
