Question: According to the map, which country most likely held influence over the Canal Zone in the early 1900s?
<em>Options: </em>
• Colombia
• Mexico
• The United States
• Panama
Answer: The correct answer is: <u>The United States. </u>
Explanation: The Canal was a geopolitical strategy to make the United States the most powerful nation on Earth. It all started during the imperialism of the Panama Canal, when Panama wanted to build a canal to connect the Pacific and Atlantic oceans to move ships easily instead of having to go all the way around South America. The US purposed to build the Panama Canal, but Panama rejected their offer. Later on, Panama accepted the offer and this meant that the US held much of the influence over the Canal Zone in the early 1900s. The US gained control of both oceans. In those times, there was no air power, so enemies fought through the sea. This is why ocean power was necessary for times of war. Americans knew that they would be a very powerful nation if they could control the oceans. It required a lot of money and also many lost lives. About 27,000 people died building the Panama Canal.
The Chickasaw had a fairly democratic government. They called their chief the minko. Each clan was led by a minko and a council of elders. The minko then reported into the high minko that led the entire Chickasaw nation.
The correct answer is: The powers the constitution delegated to it.
The Anti-Federalists - Democrat-Republicans - <em>objected to a new central and powerful government.</em> They thought the constitution had the potential to remove people’s liberties. <em>This is the reason they defended that the Federal Government should only have the powers the constitution delegated to it. </em>The Anti-Federalists were against any power that would remove the states powers.
