Answer: The New England colonies

Explanation:

The New England colonies often had thin, stony soil, relatively few flat areas and long winters, making agriculture-based survival difficult. Turning to other activities, New Englanders controlled the power of water and set up grain mills and sawmills. Good quality wood was a stimulus for boat building. The excellence of the ports favored trade and the sea became a source of great wealth. The vast majority of early New England settlers lived in villages and towns around the ports, so many became involved in some kind of commerce or business.

The shipbuilding industry was extremely important, especially to the New England Colonies in Colonial Times. The first ships were built for fishing, but trade was also conducted by water, which eventually led to the real demand in shipbuilding. Shipyards rose up all along the coast of New England.

Answer:

B. ALASKA

Explanation:

On October 18, 1867, an Imperial Russia flag was lowered at an army base in eastern Alaska, and a U.S. flag was flagged to mark Alaska's transition from Russian to U.S. ownership.

The United States purchased one and a half square miles of wildlife for 4 cents per unit, which later turned out to be one of the smartest transactions in history. Secretary of State <u>William Seward</u> then negotiated the purchase of the territory, which many considered to be a land of snow and ice, and called the transaction a deal called "Seward's follies."

However, the wisdom expressed by investing in snow and ice was reaffirmed when it was discovered that Alaska had vast natural resources.
