Answer:

Option: C. They viewed Alaska as a remote, snowbound, barren territory.

Explanation:

Alaska was a part of the Russian Empire in the 17th century, but Russian was not able to settle there. After losing the Crimean War, Russian Empire decided to sell Alaska to the United States. It was under the negotiation of William Seward and the Russian minister Stoecki the agreement was made. Alaska remained remote after its purchase from the Russian Empire for many years, and critics called Alaska to purchase “Seward’s Folly”.

The French used what was well  known as the rubbing paper teqnique, which allowed them to make copies of the Rosetta Stone’s inscription.

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Unfortunately, you forgot to include the map to answer your question.

However, we can comment on the following. Hope it is useful.

We did some research and found a map titled "The Viking Age, A.D. 800-1000." The map is included in a lesson to develop Geography skills such as interpreting symbols, lines, and labels.

If this is the correct map to your question, then the correct answer is the following.

The city on the map that is farthest from the Vikings' homeland is Rome, followed by Paris, and the closest city to Vikings homeland, that appear on the map is London.

The homeland of the Vikings was the modern-day Scandinavian territories of Sweden, Denmark, and Norway.
