Read the passage from History of the United States, by Charles and Mary Beard. As necessary to mechanical industry as steel and

steam power was the great market, spread over a wide and diversified area and knit together by efficient means of transportation. This service was supplied to industry by the steamship, which began its career on the Hudson in 1807; by the canals, of which the Erie, opened in 1825, was the most noteworthy; and by the railways, which came into practical operation about 1830. The railways followed the same paths [as the canals]. By 1860, New York had rail connections with Chicago and St. Louis—one of the routes running through the Hudson and Mohawk valleys and along the Great Lakes, the other through Philadelphia and Pennsylvania and across the rich wheat fields of Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois. Baltimore, not to be outdone by her two rivals, reached out over the mountains for the Western trade and in 1857 had trains running into St. Louis.

The options of the question are a) steel. B) industry’s need for a market. c) the Erie canal system. d) the railways.

The correct answer is C) the Erie canal system.  

<em>In a summary of the passage, the central trend is the Erie canal system. </em>

The passage contains an introduction that serves as a context when it refers to “the Steel and Steam power as a good market to mechanical industry.” And then, it leads to the central idea when it diversified to allow more efficient means of transportation, like the Canals for navigation. The passage refers to the Ships of Steam that navigated through the Hudson in 1807, using the Erie canal, part of the system of Canals in the state of New York.

Why did Christopher Columbus name the people he met in the Bahamas in 1492 " Indians”?
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

When Christopher Columbus arrived on the Bahamian Island of Guanahani (San Salvador) in 1492, he encountered the Taíno people, whom he described in letters as "naked as the day they were born." The Taíno had complex hierarchical religious, political, and social systems. Skilled farmers and navigators, they wrote music and poetry and created powerfully expressive objects. At the time of Columbus’s exploration, the Taíno were the most numerous indigenous people of the Caribbean and inhabited what are now Cuba, Jamaica, Haiti, the Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands. By 1550, the Taíno were close to extinction, many having succumbed to diseases brought by the Spaniards. Taíno influences survived, however, and today appear in the beliefs, religions, language, and music of Caribbean cultures.

Contact [7]
The best answer is, decreased dramatically. 

Following the massive and consistent arrival of Europeans following the expeditions of Columbus in 1492, the American Indians were faced with devastation, disease, and death. Colonial settlers, the British, French, Spanish, and eventually American governments would all negotiate various treaties and agreements with the American Indians, however, these were often violated or negotiated in a way to leave the Indians in some kind of deficit. As the years passed and the tribes along the east coast were removed or assimilated, the American government enacted full-blown warfare against the American Indians in the mid-west and west, eventually forcing all remaining members into assimilation and reservations.
