What religious rivalry in Europe shaped the exploration of the Americas?

History

Answer: Protestantism vs Catholicism

Explanation:

The European powers were predominantly Christian and wanted to spread this across the world in every nation they colonized. Being Christian however, did not mean that they were of the same denomination.

In the 16th century, King Henry VIII of England denounced the authority of the Pope and turned England into a protestant nation when the Pope refused to annul his marriage to Catherine of Aragon.

England embraced Protestantism with such gusto that the Catholics of Europe were infuriated to the point of Phillip II of Spain attempting to invade England and failing woefully.

In their race for the Americas, the Protestants of Europe often vied with the Catholics to convert as many people as possible and with their varying beliefs, often came into conflict with each other.

China has allowed which of the following freedoms in order to increase businesses and trade ?
lesantik [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is A. Economic freedom.

Explanation:

The economic reforms in China were initiated in 1978 by the pragmatist wing of the Chinese Communist Party, led by Deng Xiaoping, and continue to this day. The reformers set themselves the goal of creating sufficient surplus value to finance the modernization of the Chinese economy, which was on the brink of disaster as a result of the failure of the Great Leap Forward policy and the aftermath of the voluntaristic decisions taken under Mao Zedong. The initial task of the reforms was to solve the problem of motivating workers and peasants and eliminate economic imbalances.

Economic reforms have led to massive economic growth and changed the fortunes of hundreds of millions of Chinese, as more than 850 million people have been lifted out of poverty. In the West, economic reforms in China have been perceived by many as a transition to capitalism.
