The correct answer to this open question is the following.

You forgot to include the options of the question. However, we can say the following.

The European power that was able to purchase a valuable island with "a few toys" was the Dutch.

The Dutch were the ones that said "The natives are only too happy to share ... For a copper kettle and a few toys, as beads and hatchets, they will sell you a whole Country ..."

It was the Dutch West India Company that founded the colony of New Netherlands in the territory that today is Manhattan, in New York. It was Peter Minuit, who buy the island to the Native American Indians that lived there in 1626. The tribe was called the Manhattans. However, things did not well or as the Dutch expected, and in 1641 they waged war against the Manhattans, killing so many Native American Indians.

Available scientific evidence indicates that humanity emerged from Africa over 100,000 years ago, yet did not arrive in the Americas until less than 20,000 years ago. Current understanding of the settlement of the Americas derives from advances in four interrelated disciplines: archaeology, Pleistocene geology, physical anthropology, and DNA analysis. While there is general agreement that the Americas were first settled from Asia, the pattern of migration, its timing, and the place(s) of origin in Asia of the peoples who migrated to the Americas remain unclear.[1] In the 2000s, researchers sought to use familiar tools to validate or reject established theories, such as Clovis first.[2] The archeological evidence suggests that the Paleo-Indians' first dispersal into the Americas occurred near the end of the last glacial period or, more specifically, what is known as the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM), around 16,500–13,000 years ago.[1]

The settlement of the Americas is of intense interest to archaeologists and anthropologists. Modern biochemical techniques, as well as the accumulation of archaeological and geological evidence, have shed progressively more light on the subject; however, significant questions remain unresolved.<span>[3]</span>

What was an economic effect of world War II?
frozen [14]

The correct answer is D. World War II increased the numbers of working women, due to the fact that more labor was needed to increase production in order to maintain a economy of war. In addition, since many men were on the battlefield, it were the women who in many cases had to take the head role in their families and support their children, so they were forced to work.
