How did the French, Spanish, and Italians react to Juarez's decision to prolong paying off the national debt? (Cinco de Mayo)
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

As a reaction to Juarez's decision to prolong paying off the national debt, France, Spain and Italy sent military forces to Mexico in order to force the payment, which ended up unleashing the Battle of Puebla, remembered in Mexican historiography as Cinco de Mayo.

Explanation:

Cinco de Mayo is a regional holiday in Mexico that is mainly celebrated in the state of Puebla. The day is celebrated to remember the first victory the Mexican forces won, led by General Ignacio Zaragoza, over the French forces in the Battle of Puebla on May 5, 1862.

In 1861, Mexico had stopped making interest payments on loans raised by the state. This caused France and other European countries to attack Mexico in late 1861 to try to force the country to continue making interest payments. The French government decided to try to occupy Mexico. The first part of France's invasion was successful, but on May 5, 1862, in the city of Puebla, Mexican troops managed to fight back the French army's attack. In the battle of Puebla, the Mexican army was led by General Ignacio Zaragoza. Although the Mexican army won over France in Puebla, it only meant that the advance of the French troops was delayed to the capital Mexico City, which they occupied a year later, as well as other large parts of Mexico. The French occupation forces let Maximilian I, Emperor of Mexico, take Mexico's faith. The French were defeated in 1867 and then forced out of the country.

You have looked at the 4 contenders for the throne of England in 1066 following the death of Edward the Confesser.
Flura [38]

Answer:

Edward the Confessor died on 5 January 1066. He had no children. Three men wanted to be king of England. Each man thought he had the best claim to the throne. The next king of England would have to win it in a war. Who do you think had the best claim to the throne?

Explanation:

Harold Godwinson, Earl of Wessex

Harold was a powerful and rich English nobleman. According to the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle, Edward named Godwinson as his successor on his deathbed. The next day, the royal council, known as the Witan, met and declared Godwinson king. An English king was proclaimed by the Witan - this gave Harold Godwinson the only claim to the throne by right.

William, Duke of Normandy

The Norman chroniclers reported that Edward had promised his distant relative, William, the throne in 1051. William was the only blood relative of Edward, but the English throne was not hereditary anyway. Claims that Edward promised the throne were probably made up by the rival sides after the event. The Bayeux Tapestry, which was made after the Conquest, shows Godwinson swearing an oath of support to William in a visit to Normandy in 1064. William was supported by the Pope.

Harald Hardrada, King of Norway, Viking warrior

Hardrada based his claim on the fact that his ancestor, King Cnut, had once ruled England (1016‒1035). He was helped by Godwinson's half-brother, Tostig.
