8 0

The correct answer is B. To defend against imperial challengers

Explanation:

The Castillo de San Marcos was a fort built by the Spanish in St. Agustine, Florida in 1672 as back then Florida territory was part of the Spanish Empire and not part of the U.S. The main purpose of this fort was to protect the city and the people in them from attacks led by other empires or by countries that wanted to take control of the territory. Indeed, the fort was built after an English raid in 1668 followed by two other attacks by the English after the fort was built. Additionally, after Florida became part of the U.S. the fort was used as a prison. Considering this, it can be concluded the purpose of the Castillo de San Marcos was to defend the city against imperial challengers.

Describe the urban problems in the U.S. during the Civil Rights Movement.​
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

The history of civil rights in the twentieth-century United States is inseparable from the history of the Great Migration. From the end of World War I through the 1970s, extraordinary numbers of African Americans chose to leave the South with its pervasive system of legalized racism and move to cities in the North and West. While we often associate the Great Migration with the decades around the two World Wars, historians have recently established that many more people moved away from the South after 1940 than before. Between 1940 and 1980, five million African Americans moved to the urban North and West, more than twice the number associated with the first wave of migration from 1915 to 1940.

In The English Civil War, what happened at the Battle of Naseby and the Battle of Edgehill?
Mrac [35]
 14,000 strong Parliamentarian New Model Army took on the Royalist army of King Charles I comprising less than 9,000 men, in what would to be the final key battle of the war. 

During a cavalry charge on the western flank Prince Rupert's Royalist forces swept aside the Parliamentarian horsemen, chasing them from the battlefield and on to attack the baggage train. 
<span>
The main Royalist military force had been decimated; the king had lost his best officers, seasoned troops and artillery. All that now remained was for the Parliamentarian armies to wipe out the last pockets of Royalist resistance, which it did within the year.</span>

Both local and federal officials were unwilling to enforce legal decisions that outlawed segregation how did the students try to
valina [46]

Answer:

During this period, the Leadership Conference on Civil Rights was responsible in the successful drive for passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1957. They followed up and continued to press for a stronger legislation.

The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP)Youth Council chapters organized sit-ins at whites-only lunch counters thereby sparking a movement against segregation in public accommodations throughout the South in 1960. Nonviolent direct action also increased beginning with the 1961 Freedom Rides.

This led President Kennedy to send a comprehensive civil rights bill to the Congress shortly before his assassination. The bill was later signed by his successor President Johnson in 1964.
