The correct answer is C. A Dutch system of granting tracts of land in New Netherland to encourage colonization

Explanation:

The term "patroonship" refers to a system developed during the 17th century in New Netherland, which was a Dutch colony located on the east of North America. In this system tracts of land were provided to people that were landholders from the Netherlands mainly to increase the territory this colony covered and in general, terms to foster colonization and guaranteed Netherland had access to the sources of the New World. Additionally, the role of the patroon evolved as each person that owned a tract of land also had political and civil privileges over others.

muminat

Answer: Japan and the United States will be allies

Explanation:

The Treaty had the purpouse of opening up Japan to American commerce, ending the japanesse policy of isolation which it had managed to mantain for 220 years. It further encouraged peace and cooperation between the two nations in the future and though it achieved the short term objective of opening up Japan to foreign trade, the japaneese saw it as a weakness since they were forced to sign it to avoid military conflict. The subsequent treaties with the west had the effect of debilitating the already weak position of the Shogun, empowering the Emperor and leading to the rearmament and modernization of Japan.
