In 1581 the first Spanish explorers reached the area where the twin cities of El Paso in Texas, and Ciudad Juárez in Chihuahua,

Mexico are today. Because the Rio Grande flowed through two mountain ranges there, creating a pass through, the Spanish named it “El Paso del Norte,” or “the Northern Pass.” In 1598, Juan de Oñate led a huge expedition to found settlements on the upper Rio Grande. With 600 people, 83 wagons, and 7,000 animals, the party formed a train four miles (6.4 km) long. After a difficult and long desert crossing, the expedition reached El Paso del Norte where Oñate celebrated their successful journey and claimed the entire Rio Grande Valley for Spain. Oñate then marched his party up the Rio Grande into what is now New Mexico. They founded settlements, including the city of Santa Fe in 1609. Over the years, several expeditions set out from New Mexico and explored the area around present-day San Angelo, Texas. —Texas History

Use the map to determine which statement is true?
Debora [2.8K]

The correct answer is D. Most European nations are part of the European Union.

Explanation:

The map shows the European nations and whether these belong or not to the European Union (economic and political alliance). In this map, the countries in blue are those that are already part of the union, the countries in red are candidates, and the countries in green do not belong to the union. In this context, most of the European countries are part of this union. Indeed, there are around 24 countries in blue (members of the union) and only around 9 countries in green (countries that are not part of the union). Besides this, member countries include nations such as France, Spain, Germany, Greece, and Italy; while non-members include Russia, Ukraine, and Belarus. According to this, one true statement about the map is statement D.
