Texas declared its secession from the Union on February 1, 1861, and joined the Confederate States on March 2, 1861, after it replaced its governor, Sam Houston, when he refused to take an oath of allegiance to the Confederacy. As with those of other States, the Declaration was not recognized by the United States government at Washington.

What is Geographic Monopoly?

qwelly [4]

Answer:

The first option... A monopoly which controls any market of goods

A geographic monopoly occurs when a certain company holds the entire market for a certain service/product. This happens when the market is so limited that it doesn't make sense for anyone besides a single seller to enter the market (any additional people or companies wouldn't make much of a profit). An example of this could be anything from a shop in a small town, to cable companies and phone companies.

Explanation:

A monopoly exists when a specific person or enterprise is the only supplier of a particular commodity. This contrasts with a monopsony which relates to a single entity's control of a market to purchase a good or service, and with oligopoly and duopoly which consists of a few sellers dominating a market. Monopolies are thus characterized by a lack of economic competition to produce the good or service, a lack of viable substitute goods, and the possibility of a high monopoly price well above the seller's marginal cost that leads to a high monopoly profit.
