Answer:  C. acquired after the Missouri Compromise, which did not include those territories.

Explanation:

The Mexican Cession was the large region of land that Mexico ceded to the United States in the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo in 1848.  It included territory that would later become the states of California, Nevada, Utah, and parts of what would become Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado and Wyoming.  The Mexican Cession reignited tension on the issue of slave-holding states vs. free states.

The Missouri Compromise (1820) had admitted Missouri into the Union as a slave state with Maine being added at the same time to keep the balance of slave and free states equal.  It also prohibited any future slave states north of the latitude line 36 1/2 degrees north of the equator in territories of the Louisiana Purchase, with the exception of Missouri (north of that line) being admitted as a slave state.  Since that compromise had applied to Louisiana Purchase territories (not specifically the new lands from Mexico), and since the specified latitude line ran right through the middle of the Mexican Cession territory, there was bound to be further debate over the issue of slave vs. free states.

Lady_Fox [76]

The correct answer is B. The location and environment of the Middle Colonies allowed settlers to establish farms and grow grains.

The Middle Colonies was the name given to the middle part of the Thirteen Colonies, the colonies of the British Empire that later separated and established the United States, which lied between Virginia and New England.

The Middle Colonies had large areas of fertile soil, which made the area a major exporter of wheat and other cereals. The timber and shipbuilding industries also enjoyed prosperity in the Middle Colonies due to the abundance of forests in the area, and Pennsylvania achieved moderate success in the iron and textile industries.

Answer:

Good choice:

C. was able to remain independent because France and Britain preferred that it remain so in order to serve as a buffer between their colonial territories.

Explanation:

Fortunately, the monarchy of Thailand managed to maneuver diplomatically and the Southeast Asian country managed to avoid the fate of its neighbors that fell prey of European colonialism. It managed to preserve its independence. Burma, a former British colony, is northeast of Thailand. To the west and the south lied Indochina: Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam. All of them were French colonies.
