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 era of tang and song rule is called the golden age because
EastWind [94]
The Tang and Song rule is described to be the reunification and renaissance in Chinese civilization mostly due to the fact of military advancements, rapid expansion, the Civil Service Exams and taxation methods that developed over time. Li Yuan, Duke of Tang, established the golden age of Tang because of his rapid expansion and strong Chinese bureaucracy. The Civil Service exams created opportunities for families to raise their rank in the social and political hierarchy. The Song dynasty valued scholars over military, making them weak to invaders yet highly cultural and innovative.
