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

History
1 answer:
gladu [14]3 years ago
3 0

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.

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached, we can say the following.

The group that was strongly opposed to Jackson's "high-handed" and "king-like" behavior was the Whig Party.

US President Andrew Jackson was beloved by many but not all. People from the south and the west of the United States loved him by considering him as "A man of the people."

However, he had tough political rivals as was the case of the members of the Whig Party who did not like his "high-handed" and "king-like" attitudes.

President Jackson was a man of strong character whose decisions not always were well accepted by all. For instance, he wanted the central government to have power over the states. He opposed South Caroline to ignore federal law. He also opposed t the continuity of the National Bank.

Geography was a huge part in slavery because in Africa the people were hungry so they would give/sell the weakest people in Africa to the colonies in order to survive. The south had the largest amount of slavery and north the lowest this caused arguments which later led to the civil war, this is how geography has shaped slavery
