Answer:

B) They often relocated to find more favorable farming conditions.

A) He wanted to find riches.

D) Resistance to European diseases.

C) They both wanted to dominate the fur trade.

C) Church members.

B) He advertised the religious freedom offered in the colony.

Explanation:

When the first Europeans arrived to the continent, they were not familiar with the terrain and the geography of America. Therefore, they often settled in the areas that were close to the Atlantic Coast. However, as their population grew and their needs increased, they began to relocate in order to find more favourable farming conditions.

One of the main reasons why Columbus decided to travel was in order to reach India. India was an attractive destination to him because Europe had been trading with India for centuries, and Europeans were interested in the riches that the area had to offer. Columbus wanted to find a new route to sail to the subcontinent.

One of the main reasons why the Spaniards were able to defeat these large empires was because the Native Americans lacked resistance to European diseases. Therefore, people died in very large numbers, while the remaining ones were left weakened and demotivated.

One of the reasons why the Dutch and the French were such bitter enemies in North America was the fact that they both wanted to dominate the fur trade.

The legislation in the Massachusetts Bay Colony was unusual in the fact that it gave the vote to all men who were "members of some church." However, it did not specify a particular church.

One of the ways in which William Penn was able to attract so many people to his colony of Pennsylvania was due to his support of the ideas of religious freedom, as well as democracy.
