Answer:

The correct answer is A. At the Battle of Marathon, the Athenians defeated the Persians.

Explanation:

The Battle of Marathon took place during the First Persia War in 490 BC. It opposed a Persian landing with the Athenian and Plataean hoplites, who finally obtained victory.

Following the Ionian revolt, Darius decided to punish the Greek cities that had helped his rebellious subjects. After taking Naxos and Eretria, the Persian expedition landed on Marathon. After five days in a row, the Athenian and Plataean forces crushed the Persian infantry, causing heavy losses to it. The Greek army then quickly retreated to Athens to prevent the landing of the other part of the Persian expeditionary body at Phalere.

This victory ended the First Persian War. A new attack took place ten years later under the leadership of Xerxes. The Battle of Marathon played an important political role with the affirmation of the Athenian democratic model.

Why did the U.S. expand west in the 1840s and what territories did America gain as a result of Manifest Destiny?
Andru [333]

Answer:

Following a trail blazed by Lewis and Clark, most of these people had left their homes in the East in search of economic opportunity. Like Thomas Jefferson, many of these pioneers associated westward migration, land ownership and farming with freedom. In Europe, large numbers of factory workers formed a dependent and seemingly permanent working class; by contrast, in the United States, the western frontier offered the possibility of independence and upward mobility for all. In 1843, one thousand pioneers took to the Oregon Trail as part of the “Great Emigration.”  Then in 1848 The California Gold Rush was sparked. By the discovery of gold nuggets in the Sacramento Valley, and was arguably one of the most significant events to shape American history during the first half of the 19th century. As news spread of the discovery, thousands of prospective gold miners traveled by sea or over land to San Francisco and the surrounding area; by the end of 1849, the non-native population of the California territory was some 100,000 (compared with the pre-1848 figure of less than 1,000). A total of $2 billion worth of precious metal was extracted from the area during the Gold Rush, which peaked in 1852.   .

The Louisiana Purchase
Sveta_85 [38]
The Louisiana Purchase was actually a pretty shady deal. Jefferson bought it from the french without the approval of the people. His goal was that he wanted to expand the territory of the U.S. Previously the american people wouldn't go past the mountain range for fear of foreign colonies and native Americans. This purchase also ended up opening a trade route from coast to coast. While technically Lewis and Clarke went farther than they were supposed to, there was no one that could really contest them.
