Answer:

In the spanish hierarchy, the people are the top were the <em>peninsulares</em>, these were people from Spain who went to the colonies to take charge of the highest political positions.

Next, were the <em>criollos</em>, people of Spanish descent born in the Americas. They occupied the rest of political positions.

After them, came the <em>mestizos</em>, people of mixed Spanish and Native American descent.

Finally, at the bottom were the Native Americans and the African Americans, who were subjected to what was essentially slave labor.

What did this hierarchy reflect?"

This hierarchy reflected a society that was stratified on racial basis. The whiter, and more Spanish you were, the higher your position in society. The opposite occured if you were black of Indigenous.

Can anyone help me with this question??? ITS URGENT PLS HELP ME 20 PTS
Ede4ka [16]


He had a well-shaped head - not the "bullet" type of many pugilists - and dark hair which was turning gray. He carried this head at a proud angle which gave emphasis to his prominent jaw. His face was somewhat florid, so that even without knowing who he was, on would have said "Here is a man who has been a hard drinker." He had a fine mustache in the old tradition. Starting below his nostrils this mustache, a few shades grayer than his hair, extended in leisurely fashion over his lip and all the way across his face on both sides. The under edges were a trifle ragged and the curl at the ends was upward. He had a custom of snorting sometimes, as he was about to say something, after which he would stroke his mustache, first on one side, then on the other. I got the idea that this stroking business acted as a sedative on him. . . .

He talked with a perceptible, but not pronounced, brogue. When he became excited, however, this brogue grow thicker. He made small errors in grammar, which stamped him as a man of little education, but remembering how brief his education really was, one had to admit that he talked remarkably well. . . .

"Well, there's nothing to fighting, " he opened up, "Just come out fast from your corner, hit the other fellow as hard as you can and hit him first. That's all there is to fighting."

He laughed, then at once grew serious.

"What I should like to talk about is something else. Whiskey! There's the only fighter that ever really licked old John L. Jim Corbett, according to the record, knocked me out in New Orleans in 1892, but he only gave the finishing touches to what whiskey had already done to me. If I had met Jim Corbett before whiskey got me I'd have killed him. I stopped drinking long ago, but of course, too late. Too late for old John L., but not too late for millions of boys who are starting out to follow the same road

What are the 2 most important human rights and why? What is the least important human right and why?
svp [43]
<h3>In my opinion I think that freedom of speech and equality are really important because for speech people can express them selves in any way that they want, and equality because that gets rid of racism and men treating women as a lower class. I think the least important human right is having a home because you make choices throughout your life life that affect that also the right of privacy. We have no privacy on our phones even if we think we do all of our information from accounts, social networking and much more are stored in some sever farm that can be hacked at any point. </h3><h3>Dose this give you what you need? </h3>

What would be James Ogelthorpe's best argument for establishing a new colony in North America? It would serve as protection for
Brut [27]

Answer:

James Oglethorpe's best argument for establishing a new colony in North America was that it would serve as protection for South Carolina.

Explanation:

The charter for the Province of Georgia was signed by George II on April 21, 1732 and it was granted to James Oglethorpe. The original purpose of the colony, according to Oglethorpe's plan, was as a penal colony for the settlement of people in prison becacuse of debts. The first prisoners arrived on February 12, 1733, a day that is still celebrated as Georgia Day. But the main geopolitical importance, that convinced the king to approve its creation, was that it would serve as a barrier for Spanish coming from Florida to reach the Carolinas, which were important crop producers for Britain.
