Answer:

Europeans who lived in the spanish colonies of latin american were called <em>peninsulares</em>, which means, people from the peninsula, because Spain is part of the Iberian Peninsula.

They represented the highest class and the top positions in government and the army were usually reserved for them. They were not very numerous though.

Americans by bith who were direct descendants were called <em>criollos</em>. They constituted the majority of the economic elite in all spanish colonies, but were still below their european cousins. They were the group that led the independence revolutions in the nineteenth century.

What impact did the Scientific Revolution have on the Catholic Church?

DENIUS [597]

The scientific revolution was the part of the Renaissance, and it is notable for a series of changes in society, education, and knowledge, which resulted in a string of new discoveries and new views on the world. Before the scientific revolution, the Church had the dominance over the learning, dictating who will be able to learn and what; yet, as a result of this period, knowledge and science were more available and widely distributed. Scientists had more democratic ideas about the world and society, which in the end resulted in the more humane views and laws. All of these circumstances weakened the Church and its impact on society.
The discoveries of the revolution questioned some of the preceding pieces of knowledge supported by the Church, most notably the idea that the Sun goes around the Earth. Nicolaus Copernicus was one of the first scientists who proposed heliocentric theory, and people started to realize the Earth revolves around the Sun. This idea challenged religious believes, and the Church was afraid people would lose faith and trust in God. All of this finally resulted in the loss of the Church’s complete dominance and change of some dogmas that were previously preached heavily.
While, of course, people still have faith and believe in God today, these events changed the complete sovereignty that the institution of the Church had previously, as well as some of Christianity's teachings.

The nineteenth-century economic decline of the islamic empires can be attributed to

kati45 [8]

Isolation--follow a long period of isolation, the Islamic Empires had not been trading or gaining new innovations during the 19th century.

As European countries began to explore and open trade, the Muslim Empires had been at their peak and refused trading rights with them. This economic isolation led the countries to also lose out on new knowledge and innovations. The Muslim Empires found themselves behind by the 20th century and unable to protect their empires.
