France, England, and other countries made several attempts to colonize New England early in the 17th century, and those nations were often in contention for lands in the New World. French nobleman Pierre Dugua Sieur de Monts established a settlement on Saint Croix Island, Maine in June 1604 under the authority of the King of France. The small St. Croix River Island is located on the northern boundary of present-day Maine. Nearly half the settlers perished due to the harsh winter and scurvy, and the survivors moved north out of New England to Port-Royal of Nova Scotia (see symbol "R" on map to the right) in the spring of 1605.

King James I of England recognized the need for a permanent settlement in New England, and he granted competing royal charters to the Plymouth Company and the London Company. The Plymouth Company ships arrived at the mouth of the Kennebec River (then called the Sagadahoc River) in August 1607 where they established a settlement named Sagadahoc Colony, better known as Popham Colony (see symbol "Po" on map to right) to honor financial backer Sir John Popham. The colonists faced a harsh winter, the loss of supplies following a storehouse fire, and mixed relations with the indigenous tribes.

Colony leader Captain George Popham died, and Raleigh Gilbert decided to return to England to take up an inheritance left by the death of an older brother—at which point, all of the colonists decided to return to England. It was around August 1608 when they left on the ship Mary and John and a new ship built by the colony named Virginia of Sagadahoc. The 30-ton Virginia was the first sea-going ship ever built in North America.

Conflict over land rights continued through the early 17th century, with the French constructing Fort Pentagouet near present-day Castine, Maine in 1613. The fort protected a trading post and a fishing station and was considered the first longer-term settlement in New England. It changed hands multiple times throughout the 17th century among the English, French, and Dutch colonists.

1. Because every area on Earth has rich and diverse History, every new area is another million years of development.

2. Humans alter landscape by mining, making roads, and pollution.

3. Geography impacts history due to the fact that different areas have different climates and resources. Some places are inhabitable and some areas were so resourceful that humans could sustain their entire lives there. Human features impact events commonly. Take Syria for example; that will go down in history because it is a war. Wars, battles, etc all have a massive impact in history.

Which are the correct statements about the League of Nations? Select the two correct answers.
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

The two correct answers are Option A and Option C.

Explanation:

It was first introduced in Woodrow Wilson’s Fourteen Points and it was established to encourage peace negotiations as World War I came to an end and afterward. Woodrow Wilson was the President of the United States and the League of Nations was his idea, but he could not get the United States Congress to approve membership for the United States due to isolationist beliefs among the representatives. Wilson's health also began to decline so he was unable to make strong personal appeals to the US Congress in favor of the treaty.
