Fittoniya [83]

Salutary neglect is the right answer.

the massacre at sand creek was an attack by a colorado militia on peaceful american indians. a colorado militia on a group of da
frutty [35]

On November 29, 1864, 700 militiamen from the Colorado Territory launched an assault on communities inhabited by Cheyenne and Arapaho Indians. U.S. Army Col. John Chivington, a Methodist minister and a freemason, served as the militia's commander.

<h3>What was the cause of the Sand Creek Massacre?</h3>

The long-running struggle for dominance of eastern Colorado's Great Plains was one of the main factors leading to the Sand Creek Massacre. Ownership of the region north of the Arkansas River and up to the Nebraska border was secured by the Fort Laramie Treaty of 1851, which also included the Cheyenne and Arapahoe.

Around 160 men, women, and children, including the elderly and infirm, were killed in a surprise attack by the U.S. Army on a non-combatant encampment of Cheyenne and Arapaho Indians in 1864 at the Big Sandy Creek in southeast Colorado.

What factor encouraged many states to vote for ratification.
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

Article VII, the final article of the Constitution, required that before the Constitution could become law and a new government could form, the document had to be ratified by nine of the thirteen states. Eleven days after the delegates at the Philadelphia convention approved it, copies of the Constitution were sent to each of the states, which were to hold ratifying conventions to either accept or reject it.

Explanation:

This approach to ratification was an unusual one. Since the authority inherent in the Articles of Confederation and the Confederation Congress had rested on the consent of the states, changes to the nation’s government should also have been ratified by the state legislatures. Instead, by calling upon state legislatures to hold ratification conventions to approve the Constitution, the framers avoided asking the legislators to approve a document that would require them to give up a degree of their own power. The men attending the ratification conventions would be delegates elected by their neighbors to represent their interests. They were not being asked to relinquish their power; in fact, they were being asked to place limits upon the power of their state legislators, whom they may not have elected in the first place.

marysya [2.9K]
Cortes showed up, the Aztecs welcomed him with open arms. They apparently thought he was a god. They gave him all the gold he could ever want, but he decided that that wasn't good enough and so he set up a meeting with Montezuma (their leader). He then captured Montezuma. The Aztecs realized their mistake and beat the Spanish back. 

<span>After a while, the Spanish enlisted the aid of oppressed tribes living under Aztec rule, and when they made a move on the Empire, they found most of the Aztec warriors dead or dying of diseases that THEY brought over from Europe. They then conquered everyone.</span>
