Which event led to the Cuban Missile Crisis?

yanalaym [24]

The Soviets were setting up nuclear missiles in Cuba. This meant that they were now able in theory to launch a nuclear missile directly at large parts of the USA and it was therefore viewed as a threat by the USA. I hope that helps.

Tobacco was significant to the development of the Virginia colony. Which of the following was the result of tobacco? Check all o

meriva

Answer:

More than any other crop or industry, tobacco shaped the development of Virginia.

Virginia colonists saw the Native Americans growing tobacco, and the colonists quickly adopted tobacco as their primary mechanism of getting wealthy. Virginia operated under "cash-crop" agriculture (tobacco is grown for sale, not for use on the farm) since 1613. Tobacco provided more income than any other farm crop until the 21st Century.

Tobacco plantations shaped the settlement of the Coastal Plain and the Piedmont. Until after World War I the state's economy was dependent upon the weather conditions for growing and harvesting tobacco, and upon the price paid for tobacco by customers outside Virginia.

Staple agriculture puts all of a region's economic eggs in one basket, in contrast to a diversified economy. When prices for the staple crop are low, or supplies diminished by a bad growing season, the entire region can suffer heavily. In the first half of the 1800's, Southern states were dependent upon cotton (though South Carolina grew indigo and rice as staple crops as well). Conflicts with Northern industrialists regarding Federal incentives/disincentives for cotton production led in part to the Civil War, just as conflicts between colonial Virginia planters and English merchants regarding tobacco prices and credit terms created a significant amount of distrust that led to the American Revolution.

In 1613, John Rolfe grew a crop of "sweet-scented" tobacco from seeds imported from the Caribbean, rather than the harsh strain of tobacco that was native to Virginia. After the colonists discovered that England would pay high prices for the sweeter tobacco, a frenzy of tobacco planting followed.

Rolfe's product was popular, but smoking was already popular in Europe before Virginia was colonized. By 1604, James I was so repulsed by the habit that he issued A Counterblaste to Tobacco, three years before Jamestown was settled.

The Spanish had seen the Aztecs using tobacco a century before Rolfe shipped his crop. Jean Nicot (the French ambassador to Portugal) often is credited with introducing tobacco to France. A monk may actually have been the first to bring it back from Brazil, but Nicot was honored by the botanical name for the species - Nicotiana tabacum. The Jamestown settlers cared more about the price paid for tobacco than about King James's personal opinion on smoking. The tobacco in Rolfe's original shipment of four hogsheads was sold at 3 shillings per pound. The West Indies crops sold at six times that price - but at 3 shillings a pound, the Virginians had finally identified tobacco as a product they could export

In class we discussed several factors that led England to begin colonizing North America. Discuss and fully explain the followin

Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

The British Empire began to take shape at the beginning of the 17th century, through the establishment of the Jamestown colony in 1607, in Virginia by England, which would be the beginning of the Thirteen Colonies in North America, which were the origin of the United States as well as the maritime provinces of Canada. There was also the colonization of small islands in the Caribbean Sea such as Jamaica and Barbados.

The sugar-producing colonies of the Caribbean, where slavery became the basis of the economy, were the most important and lucrative colonies for England. The American colonies produced tobacco, cotton and rice in the south, naval material and animal skins in the north.

The empire of England in America was gradually expanding through wars and colonies. England managed to control New Amsterdam (later called New York) after the Anglo-Dutch wars. The American colonies extended westward in search of new land for agriculture. During the Seven Years' War, the English defeated the French and stayed with New France in 1760, which made England the owner of almost all of North America.

Later, settlements in Australia (which began with the penal colonies in 1788) and New Zealand (under the domain of the Crown since 1840) created a new zone for migration from the British Isles, although indigenous populations had to suffer unequal wars -in some cases, genocide, as in the Black War- and also diseases. As a result of the wars, genocide, repression and poor diet were reduced in size by about 60–70% in just under a century. These colonies, already in the hands of the new settlers of British origin, will end up obtaining self-government.
