San Francisco is very close to a fault, or a place where 2 tectonic plates meet and push against each other. When these plates shift it causes seismic activity, or strong waves of force. These waves of force are so strong that they move and shake the earth, these are called tremors, and they turn are what you feel during an earthquake. When more shakes are felt, the energy released is called an aftershock. What caused the San Francisco earthquake was the shifting of tectonic plates.

Brazil’s road to independence was different from that of its Latin American neighbors in that
scoray [572]

Answer:

Compared to neighboring Spanish colonies, Brazil's declaration of independence turned out to be virtually without shots. The Portuguese troops of General di Avilés never entered into an armed confrontation with supporters of independence. Moreover, the independence movement was headed by the heir to the Portuguese throne, Prince Pedro.

Today, Brazil is in fifth place among the countries of the world in terms of area and population. The country is developing rapidly, both culturally and economically. Brazil plays an important role in Latin American and world politics, and in culture it is the de facto leader of the Portuguese-speaking world, surpassing the former metropolis in terms of importance due to its population amount.
