Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:
After Mexico won independence from Spain, slavery became an important issue because
A) Anglo-American Texans were universally opposed to slavery on moral grounds.
B) Mexico began to import slaves into Texas to work on cotton plantations against the wishes of Texas farmers.
C) the economy struggled when fewer slaves were needed as Texas transitioned from cotton to cattle production.
D) the Mexican government disapproved of slavery while Texas farmers felt it was necessary for agricultural production.
Answer:
D) the Mexican government disapproved of slavery while Texas farmers felt it was necessary for agricultural production.
Explanation:
Slavery was a major issue to be resolved in all American territories that adopted it during European colonialism. In Mexico it was no different and this issue was much discussed and debated during the formation of the country, after it received independence from Spain.
The government established in Mexico, planned to provide full freedom for any and all Mexican citizens, including blacks. However, because Mexico was an agricultural country and it needed to stimulate its agricultural production to stabilize its economy. Most of the slaves were linked to the agricultural production system, mainly in Texas, which was part of Mexico at that time. For this reason, the representatives of Texas refused to release the slaves because they believed that they were an essential element of the productive process.
The three statements that support the thesis statement are:
A) The Treaty of Versailles forced Germany to repair all the damages caused by the war, not only to the Allied governments but also to the civilians. These reparations should be done in goods as well as in money. As a consequence, Germany was obliged to hand over most of its resources and wealth.
D) Germany had to deliver many territories such as Alsace and Lorraine, Eupen and the Polish Prussia, amog others, to the Allies. This meant the loss of approximately six million people in population for this country, and also the loss of regions which were of fundamental economic importance.
E) The War Guilt Clause or Article 231 made Germany accept the responsability for all damages caused by the war to the Allies and the population of such countries. This was seen as a national humilliation for the Germans who do not wanted to take full responsibility for the damages.
Answer:
D. It gave the Ottomans easy access to trade routes
Explanation:
Istanbul, formerly Constantinople, was a city of great importance. The reason for that was that the city was located right on the place that connects Europe and Asia, as well as connecting the Mediterranean Sea (through the Aegean Sea) with the Black Sea. It was one on the most important location when it came to trade between Europe and Asia, so once the Ottomans had it under their control, they pretty much had monopoly and total control of the most important trade root. This brought great wealth to the empire, making it one of the most formidable forces in the world.
Answer would be D. sovereignty
