Interactions among Europeans and Native Americans varied from place
to place, and members of each nation forged relationships with Indians
in very different ways, depending on a variety of economic, social and
political factors. While we should be mindful of this diversity, we can
still make certain generalizations. Few Europeans considered Native
Americans their equals, because of differences in religion, agricultural
practice, housing, dress, and other characteristics that—to
Europeans—indicated Native American inferiority. However, the French,
Spanish, and Dutch sought profit through trade and exploitation of New
World resources, and they knew that the native people would be important
to their success. Europeans also wanted to convert Native Americans to
Christianity. Therefore, economic gain and religion were the two factors
that most affected the dynamics of European and indigenous American
relationships.
The Spanish:
Spain, the most powerful monarchy in Europe and the Americas, wished to
enrich themselves with the New World’s natural resources. After
enslaving indigenous peoples in the Caribbean and the southern parts of
the Americas to grow crops and mine for gold, silver, and other
valuables, the Spanish moved into North America where they concentrated
their efforts in what is now the southwestern and southeastern United
States. In Florida, for example, Spain established a military post at
San Augustín, (today called St. Augustine) but only a small number of
Spaniards settled there. Catholic missionaries labored to convert the
Indians to Christianity, and they experienced some success baptizing and
transforming the Guale and Timucuan peoples into farmers. But even the
most cooperative Indians continued to maintain their own religious and
cultural traditions, and many priests concluded that the Indians were
inferior and incapable of understanding Christianity. Indigenous
populations declined over the seventeenth century as epidemics brought
by the Spanish killed large numbers of natives. San Augustín remained a
small outpost throughout the Spanish colonial period; a sort of
multicultural crossroads where indigenous peoples came to trade with
Spaniards and intermarriage between Spanish men and American Indian
women was

D) By using the veto
Explanation:
When the president determines to deny a bill, the Congress can vote on it again. If two-thirds of the Congress vote in support of the proposal, they revoke the veto. The bill becomes a law. The legislative department can evaluate rules made by Congress and signed by the president. The president's powers are restricted in the method of limits and stability. As the head of the governing department, the president assures the implementation of the regulations in our country.

Correct answer choice for question 4 is :
A) He appoints all federal judges
Explanation:
Constitutionally, the President of the USA may not restrict the authority of the judiciary section. The Constitution is the base for all American laws, and the US Supreme Court is the final authority on what is or is not legal. The only authority the President has on the Supreme Court is the capability to elect judges to that court, with Congressional support. Which means the prevailing authority and the Conservative Congress will be struggling for a moderate judge whose version of the law is more to their desire.

Correct answer choice for question 5 is :
B) Commutation
Explanation:
The president's power to replace a condemned person's decision to make the penalty less severe is called Commutation. Presidents have restricted the ability to act unilaterally or make management judgments on their own. Presidents have used official orders as a way of performing important plans unilaterally. Using an event-count review, the incidence of administrative orders changes with substantive reforms in the president's legislative situation.
