Spain hoped to spread Catholicism in its American colonies. Spain was a very Catholic country at the time and remained very religious for centuries later. One of the main goals of colonization other than taking over and extracting the riches from the countries was to Christianize the population and convert them. This actually proved largely successful as an overwhelming majority of countries who were colonized by the Spanish identify as Catholic or a Christian denomination.
I believe that the answer is compass because it does show direction, unlike the other answer choices. Hope this helps! :)
A kiva is a room used by Puebloans for religious rituals and political meetings, many of them associated with the kachina belief system. Among the modern Hopi and most other Pueblo people, kivas are square-walled and underground, and are used for spiritual ceremonies

The way that Judaism was used to assert political authority and/or reinforce social hierarchies was by intermingling the roles of religious leaders with political authority.
<h3>How was Judaism used to control politics?</h3>
Judaism was not just a belief system for the Jews that guided their religious life, it also guided their political life.
This is because the religious leaders in Judaism also had political authority. For instance, the King or Judge was someone who was appointed by God and so could speak to God.
This led to political authority being asserted with greater ease, and for social hierarchy to be maintained.
