Hello.
The best answer would be D.
Have a nice day
It's C, because feds are for the, powerful big federal union centralized "american" national government.
This contradicts D, so it can not be D, since feds were NOT the kind of people to say. "Hey stop !!! The American government is bullying my Virginia." No virigina does not have soveringy in the eyes of feds. The USA is the powerful nation holding the states - The alliance of states is stronger than the individual power of states.
It's important to recognize that some colonists and early Americans did not see them selves as together as one. " We are not Americans as a nation, but only a region." Like Europe with all their different states and nations.
It also says all past " But if the union...." Obvious for what I think.
During the Age of Discovery (also known as the Age of Exploration), which took place from around the 15th Century until about the 18th Century, the following explorers took respective routes to observe the paired locations:
Christopher Columbus to the Americas
Corte Real to Newfoundland
Da Gama to India
Cabral to Brazil
Tasman to New Zealand
Magellan to Straits of Magellan
Janszoon to Australia
Balboa to the Pacific Ocean
James Cook to Hawaii and Antarctica
