<span>Two Offers by Frances. Well for being such a short story it truly seems like long. It has complex details. First of all:

The summary: </span>The story described the lives of two cousins: Laura Lagrange, who married the wrong man [10a]<span>

Circumstances: its to be understood that when the author wrote the book there was a lot of racial injustice and also rasism towards people who had the inclination to be colored. To my, knowledge and understanding it's possible that the author didn't dare put that both cousins were African- Americans because then the story wouldn't be such a big hit; or would be unaccepted by the white crowd of people at that time. She possibly used an indirect of it in the story.  Instead, she emphasized </span>the romanticization of death and the recurring use of the label true. The story foregrounded values of domesticity, personal morality, and Christian charity.

A difference between spanish and french settlers in north america was that
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Spanish settlements in North America had one purpose only: to protect their shipments of gold and silver from competing European powers. The first successful settlement in North America, St. Augustine, Florida was built to protect Spanish fleets from attack by privateers. The statement above that the Spanish had "big cities. large farms" is patently incorrect.

It should be noted that the first successful rebellion in America; Pope's rebellion, also known as the Pueblo revolt, was the result of numerous failed promises on the part of the Spanish. Four hundred Spaniards were killed in the revolt and the Spanish lost control of New Mexico.

Why was the city of nanjing extremely vulnerable to japanese attack??
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

B) the Chinese armed forces had been removed from the city  

Explanation:

The city of Nanjing was extremely powerless against Japanese attacks since Chinese political and military leader Chiang Kai-shek and General Chen Cheng pull back from the city of Nanjing alongside elite Chinese troops under substantial and consistent barrage by the Japanese Imperial Air Force. Therefore the city was absolutely unprotected and absolutely helpless against the Japanese attack.
