Answer:

A. "bet on any thing".

Explanation:

Mark Twain's short story "The Notorious Jumping Frog of Calaveras County" is a retelling of a story that the narrator had heard from a bartender named Simon Wheeler. This story is about a frog who was believed to be the biggest jumper of all frogs.

The narrator had gone to the place to look or inquire about a friend's friend Leonidas W. Smiley. But once there, he couldn't get hold of the actual person, upon which the bartender offered to tell him a story about a guy named Jim Smiley. Simon also added that Jim "would bet on anything—the dangdest feller".

That's a lot of questions!  You need not give me the "brainliest," as I may only respond to a couple of those points for the sake of time here.

#2 in your list:  In Lincoln's first inaugural address, he said:  "Plainly, the central idea of secession is the essence of anarchy."  In other words, if states could choose to secede from the union, then there was really no union and no government.  (Anarchy is the absence of government.)  Only if we abide by the constitutional checks we place on ourselves in a democratic republic are we exercising genuine government.  Otherwise, we fall into chaos or some sort of dictatorial state.  Lincoln felt that the whole concept of self-government was at stake, threatened by the South's desire to secede. Lincoln had to treat the secession of several states as an act of rebellion.

#5 in your list (closely related to #2):  The states that had seceded already had caused the civil war, in Lincoln's estimation.  The northern states had to respond to hold the union together.  The southern states claimed to be afraid for their property, peace and safety with an administration like Lincoln's in charge.  But Lincoln saw those fears as unfounded, that all states would continue to enjoy their constitutional privileges. But seceding from the union cut them off from all stability and security.

During the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, three European nations-Spain, France, and England-
Sauron [17]

Answer:

I have re uploaded the map with the areas explored by each country.

Spain - we can see that Spain explored the totality of Mexico, and that is why Mexico is still a Spanish-Speaking country. Spain also explored the Southwestern United States (Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, Nevada and California) which used to be part of Mexico as well. It also explored Florida and Cuba.

France - France colonial center was what is now Quebec, and that is why this Canadian region still speaks French. The French also explored the Midwest and the Mississippi Valley, and founded the city of New Orleans.

England - The English explored the East Coast, where the thirteen original colonies were founded. Despite being the smallest geographical area explored compared to the other two countries, it was the most succesful because it became the most populated.
