Factor 1:  Who decides to run for office and what advantages candidates have over one another.

Factor 2:  Incumbency.  Usually the incumbent (the person already serving in the office) has a large advantage over challengers, unless negative events have the voters wanting to get rid of incumbents.

Factor 3:  The way congressional districts are drawn.  There have been court cases recently about "gerrymandering" -- attempts by a party in power to draw district boundaries in ways that will serve to perpetuate that party's power.

Identify regions where the English, French, and Dutch explored and established settlements. What specific issues did each face?
dimulka [17.4K]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Identify regions where the English, French, and Dutch explored and established settlements.

The French established settlements mostly in the region that today is Canada. We are talking of settlements like Acadia, Newfoundland, or St. Lawrence River.  However, with the pass of time, some French settlements expanded to the region known as the Great Lakes.

In the case of the Dutch, they basically settled the territory of what today is Manhattan, in New York, around the Hudson Bay, and along the River up to Albany.

The English were the first to arrive at the North American territory and first founded the colony of Jamestown, Virginia, and then the Plymouth colony, the Massachusetts Bay colony, and many others along the Northeastern coast.

The specific issues that each faced were basically dealing with the Native American Indian tribes that already existed in North America and claimed it as its territory for obvious reasons.

The French had a better relationship with the Indians because they were mostly interested in the fur trade to make good profits. However, in the case of the English colonists, they wanted to settle more and more land to exploit the raw materials to make a profit, and this caused major conflicts and wars against the Native American Indian tribes.
