The correct answer is C) They were jealous of the Spanish wealth.

The Netherlands were looting Spanish ships because they were jealous of the Spanish wealth.

The Dutch attacked many Spanish ships in the late 1500s. Spanish ships used to carry silver and gold from the Americas and were transported to Spain when they were intercepted by Dutch ships to robber the raw materials. The Dutch knew that the Spanish were its enemies and could get richer with the gold and silver. And of course, they wanted that richness for the Netherlands.

Why were groups such as the Federalists opposed to the War of 1812?
Alex_Xolod [135]
The Federalists were opposed to the War of 1812 because it would interfere with British trade relations. The Federalists considered England to be a great commercial ally, and since the Federalists were quite in favor of staying wealthy, they didn't want to risk ruining their connections.

ella [17]
This would be matrilineal, where the line of the mother was the relevant line, and not of the father: in order to be a king, one needed to have the royal mother and the father was irrelevant. The dynasty would be traced by the female line in this case (even if the kings were the rulers).
