- They allied with other foreign powers during wars to promote the goal of unification.
Explanation:
• The unification of Germany was a historical process that took place in the second half of the 19th century in Central Europe and culminated in the creation of the German Empire on January 18, 1871, bringing together several previously independent states (Prussia, Bavaria, Saxony, etc.). Before the formation of a unified national state, the territory of Germany was divided into a political mosaic of 39 States. Between them they emphasized, by their economic and political importance, the Austrian Empire and the Kingdom of Prusia.
• The Unification of Italy was the historical process that throughout the nineteenth century led to the union of the various states in which the Italian peninsula was divided, mostly linked to dynasties considered "non-Italian" such as the Habsburgs or the Bourbons.

Explanation:
Answer: b. Florida was the first region in the present-day continental United States that Spain colonized.
Explanation:
Florida or Spanish Florida as it was known, was the first territory claimed by a European power in North America.
It was much larger than the present state of Florida and included parts of present day Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, North Carolina and South Carolina.
Established by Juan Ponce de León for the Spanish crown, Spain found it particularly difficult as well as too unattractive to maintain a significant presence which led to the territory continually shrinking until it's authority in Florida barely extended out of the various ports that were established.
Answer:
Bacon's Rebellion was probably one of the most confusing and unclear chapters in Jamestown's history. For many years, historians considered the Virginia Rebellion of 1676 to be the first stirring of revolutionary sentiment in America, which culminated in the American Revolution almost exactly one hundred years later.
Explanation:
However, in the past few decades, based on findings from a more distant viewpoint, historians have come to understand Bacon's Rebellion as a power struggle between two stubborn, selfish leaders rather than a glorious fight against tyranny.
Bacon's Rebellion can be attributed to many causes, all of which led to dissent in the Virginia colony. Economic problems, such as declining tobacco prices, growing commercial competition from Maryland and the Carolinas, and the rising prices from English manufactured goods (mercantilism) caused problems for the Virginians. There were heavy English losses in the latest series of naval wars with the Dutch and, closer to home, there were many problems caused by weather. Floods, dry spells, and hurricanes rocked the colony all in the course of a year and had a damaging effect on the colonists.
The numerous problems that hit the colony before the Rebellion gave rise to the character of Nathaniel Bacon. Due to the nature of the uprising, Bacon's Rebellion does seem at first glance to be the beginnings of America's quest for Independence. But closer examination of the facts reveals what it really was: a power struggle between two very strong personalities. Between them they almost destroyed Jamestown.
