History

Answer:

The correct answer would be the first one: They established posts for trading furs and other goods. This was not a function played by missionaries, of any religious denomination, in the Northwest.

Explanation:

The movement towards the Northwest, especially in America, happened initially as a response from fur traders who wished to expand their operation from the east to the west. These fur traders started arriving in the Northwest around the 1830´s and not much later, between the 1830´s and 1840´s, missionaries, especially of the Methodist denomination, headed by people such as Jason Lee, and others, from the Presbyterian church, settled in these newly established regions. Their purpose, in moving out west, was to evangelize, spread the Christian faith, especially to the Native peoples, and they used the established trading posts as footholds to be able to do so. As part of this, they not only sought to convert people, but they also began establishing churches and schools for Bible study and they also took their own knowledge, including on healthcare and sanitation, to help the Native peoples. This is why the correct answer is the first.

The option which was not a function of missionaries in the Northwest was the first one - t<span>hey established posts for trading furs and other goods.
Missionaries were sent around the world to spread religion and their knowledge and help others - they were not merchants who sold furs and other goods.

Describe a difference between Democrats and Republicans on which issues they believe should be a top priority .
saul85 [17]

Answer:

1. Tax Policy

Both Democrats and Republicans are for tax cuts but they don’t often agree on the best way to achieve that. While Democrats have always insisted that tax cuts should only apply to low income and middle income households, Republicans feel that such cuts should actually apply to everyone including the big corporations and the wealthy.

2. Social Issues

If you ever wanted to see the difference between Democrats and Republicans play out very clearly, tell them to speak about social issues. You can easily tell where a person stands on the political divide based on how they view things like gay marriage, abortion, and gun control. Republicans are conservative in nature. They will always take a conservative approach to social issues. This is the main reason why many are opposed to the idea of gay marriage or abortion. Democrats, on the other hand, are progressive and liberal. While they have always called on stricter gun control, they have been pushing for the recognition of gay rights and the right of women to choose whether to have an abortion or not.

3. Labor and Free Trade

Republican are pro free market. They don’t like to see increased government regulations or interference in the labor market. This is why the GOP is opposed to increasing the minimum wage arguing that businesses need to keep costs low so that they can prosper to the benefit of all Americans. Democrats, on the other hand, believe that corporations have too much power. They favor government intervention to even out the field. For example, they believe that a set minimum wage helps to bring more money to the pockets of all Americans which is good for the economy.

4. Health Care

Health care is another area where the two parties don’t agree. Democrats believe that the state should take the role of offering health care. They want to do away with private insurance arguing that it’s expensive for ordinary Americans to afford. However, Republicans believe that too much government involvement on health care could in fact drive up costs and affect the quality of care.

5. Social Programs

Democrats have always believed that it’s the job of the government to help the most vulnerable people in society. This is why they favor social programs like food stamps and Medicaid. Republicans, on the other hand, want a lean government that spends money only on essential things like security and defense, not social programs.

How did other European nations impact trade in Asia?
Olin [163]
<span>European colonisation of Southeast Asia began as Western influence started to enter the area around the 16th century, when the Dutch and Portuguese were attracted by the lucrative spice trade. The Portuguese arrived in Malacca, Maluku and Timor, and the Spanish established themselves beginning from their conquest of Manila which expand into a larger territory of Spanish East Indies. Throughout the 17th and 18th centuries, the Dutch arrived in Batavia and established the Dutch East Indies, and the British established themselves in the Strait Settlements and further to British Malaya and Borneo as well in Burma. In the 19th century, the French joined their European counterparts in establishing French Indochina. By the turn of the century, all Southeast Asian nations were colonised except for Thailand. European colonisation can be split into two distinct phases: the early phase before the Industrial Revolution, and the phase marked by the Industrial Revolution. The primary motivation for the first phase was the accumulation of wealth, but in the second phase, there was a change in the role of the Europeans in Southeast Asia, and capitalistic concerns were no longer the only source of motivation.</span>
