Answer:

The correct answer is letter b: went through numerous boom-and-bust cycles.

Explanation:

Throughout the XVII and XVIII centuries the tobacco economy of the Chesapeake region experienced continuing cycles of prosperity and depression, the <em>“boom-and-bust”</em>. Tobacco at first dominated the economy, and in order to produce this commodity Virginia adopted slave labor; by 1700, the state was importing huge numbers of slaves to provide the labor required to plant and harvest the tobacco leaves, this way the plantations owners were able to increase their fortune by selling it to other countries. For long tobacco was a very used source of income; however this practice led to soil depletion, the removal of nutrients due to improper extractive practices.  As a result the production dropped and the state suffered economically. The war also contributed to eliminate most of Virginia’s trading fleet, for example.

Jonas was likely a A.) Federalist and a E.) supporter of James Madison. Federalism divided power among the various levels of government, promoting a weaker central government, which allows for a more capitalistic economic system, allowing Jonas to own his own private business. Because of this, it's clear that Jonas was likely a supporter of James Madison, a man who promoted federalism and helped to write The Federalist Papers.

How did the Cold War affect the political situation of developing countries in Africa, Asia, and Latin America? Was it a positiv
Illusion [34]

Answer: On January 9, 1964, a riot erupted in the Panama Canal Zone, a U.S.-controlled territory in the

heart of Panama. The trouble began when Panamanian students tried to raise Panama's

national flag at an American high school. American residents objected and fighting broke out.

The riots continued over the next three days as thousands of Panamanians joined in. More than

20 people died in the unrest.

The riots in the Canal Zone reflected longstanding resentment of the U.S. presence in Panama.

The United States had controlled the Canal Zone since 1903. A treaty signed that year gave the

United States rights to the Panama Canal and the land around it “in perpetuity” (forever). Since

then, the United States had viewed the canal as essential to international trade and American

security.

President Lyndon Johnson blamed the riots on communist Cuba. He claimed that Cuba was

“sending guns, money, and agents into Panama” to encourage revolution. For the people of

Panama and the rest of Latin America, however, the riots were an expression of nationalism.

They saw the Canal Zone as a symbol of American imperialism.

The riots did have one positive effect, though. The United States began negotiations to hand the

canal over to Panama. It took many years, but in 1977 the United States and Panama finally

signed the Panama Canal Treaties. On December 31, 1999, Panama gained full control over the

canal.

The story of the Panama Canal riots is one example of the legacy of imperialism, which took on

new life during the Cold War. In this lesson, you will learn more about that legacy and how it

affected nations and people around the world.
